(4/4) Even if a video remains on our site, it doesn’t mean we endorse/support that viewpoint. There are other aspects of the channel that we’re still evaluating– we’ll be in touch with any further updates.

Update on our continued review–we have suspended this channel’s monetization. We came to this decision because a pattern of egregious actions has harmed the broader community and is against our YouTube Partner Program policies. More here:https://yt.be/help/xLtT

Its not okay, but it also isn't YT's jurisdiction. If Twitter wants to Ban Maza I say go for it, but don't mistake that what happens on twitter and what happens on YT are not the same.

It's also completely okay. Encouraging people to throw milkshakes at folks who promote violent ideologies is a far cry from violence like running over liberal protestors with a car or threatening civil war if a president is impeached for crimes they've committed.

I am going to stand my ground and say no. Milkshakes and bullets may not have the same lethality, but they are still both assault under the law. They have different levels of punishment to reflect the scale of course. 1/2

If we respond with milkshakes we shouldn't be surprised when they respond with guns. The violent ideologies you mentioned are absorbed by the lunatics, not the moderates. It only emboldens them because they don't see the difference. 2/2
