I think @mtracey is right on a lot of issues-primarily #RussiaGate. With that said, this is an awful take and wreaks of out-of-touch privilege. You don't minimize homophobia & bigotry and tell someone being harassed to "get over it." It doesn't matterhttps://twitter.com/thetomzone/status/1136430766144065543 …

bigotry. He wasn't kicked off YouTube---he was demonetized for open bigotry and harassment. On the Crowder thing--YouTube IS RIGHT. But they are wildly wrong to use it as an excuse to purge innocent hosts and journalists.

I don't think it's the progressive stance---or frankly even a logical one---to say....in the spirit of preventing censorship, let's just be quiet to open hatred and harassment. You stand up against BOTH. YouTube should be gone after for its wreckless purging. But minimizing

action for being harassed over his sexuality by a popular YouTube host isn't "moralizing" or imposing his preferences. Homophobia is a real thing. People have been killed and injured in this country because of it. Steven Crowder doesn't have an inalienable right to profit off of

OK. Still, bad move to circulate a clip from this disgusting, disgraced liar. Maza is a professional adult journalist working for a major media company who claims he needs "protection" from YouTube because some juvenile asshole (Crowder) mocked him. Yeah, I find that pathetic.

I don't really see what who tweeted the clip has to do with WHAT YOU SAID IN YOUR VIDEO. You're deflecting now. And again, you continuing to minimize him as just being thin-skinned at being "mocked" shows you clearly don't get the difference bw juvenile mockery and open bigotry

Jordan, should we also have believed the person who made those accusations when you were at TYT? You know.. because she is a woman and therefore allegedly incapable of lying? There is a reason why due process exist, but hey.. whatever earns you a few points for virtue display.

I'm sorry--due process for Crowder? He wears a shirt that says "socialism is for fags" and has openly attacked this journalist using homophobic slurs. Is there other evidence you need that he was harrassing this journalist

TBH, I don't believe you. Tracey is clearly commenting on the rough and tumble inherent in democracy. If you really don't understand this, I have to confirm that my esteem for you just took a radical nose dive.

Dude wasn't harassed. At least not by Crowder, maybe by his fans but never directed by him. Slurs, even frequently aren't harassment.
