@NoPrideForGoog

We are Google employees taking a hard look at YouTube (a Google company) policies, just like Susan and Sundar! What we see is transphobia homophobia 🤔

    Today, we publish this open letter from over 100 fellow employees, asking to remove the company until real improvements to LGBTQ+ protections are made on

    Not all LGB people. Just the ones who are rich, white, cisgender, and treated marriage equality as though it was the be all end all.

  3. But $15 billion in a year sure looks like a steaming pile of privilege to me, and what is YouTube doing with it? Google is making too much money on YouTube to change on its own. They're happy with how things are now. And it's marginalized communities that suffer for it. Not okay.

  4. I guess you can't buy the courage to stand up for what's right. Or maybe YouTube just doesn't want to pay for it. I'm not sure if it's better or worse if this is all about protecting that revenue stream from the Trump administration.

  5. We've heard say this isn't about money. To the LGBTQ+ creators wrongfully demonetized, like and , losing their livelihood for serving our community, certainly the money is part of it.

  6. Google broke out YouTube revenue for the first time. YouTube made $15 billion in 2019. How much of that would it have cost to keep the LGBTQ+ community safe? To actually remove misogynists, racist, islamophobes, anti-semites who radicalize the next generation of violent bigots?

    The conservatives are coming for us. For all of us. We fight, or we die. There isn't a third choice for many of us, so none of us get to act like there's a third choice. Period.

    It's the "don't rock the boat" sentiment and the "it's time to enjoy our victory" position that sits idly by while our POC and trans family are discriminated against, are erased, are killed. And it's going to lose us what the we've already won.

    The complacency and "we got ours" attitude of so many rich, cis, and mostly white gay and bi folks is the core of the struggle for the soul of LGBTQ+ activism. It's what caused so many gayglers to oppose . It's what causes so many to support corporatism at SF Pride

    Google: Let's threaten to fire people of they protest us at Pride. And let's just fire these others for organizing. Also Google: Here's a doodle commemorating the Greensboro sit-ins. They bravely fought for what was right and should be celebrated.

    For those who keep pointing out YouTube's policy announcements over the last many months, it only matters if they actually change what they do. They aren't. Steven Crowder posted "When Transgenders Attack" 3 days ago!

    Hey! Indeed, to be fair, my discussion on this topic has been enlightened by others ( and ); On recent policy changes I find it hard to assess without closer inspection... One thing that bothers me is the growth of alternative platforms such as bitchute...

    We're pretty sure they aren't, and the other preeminent experts on this topic, such as , have already said they aren't.

    Basically, even if it's not clear whether it's the recommender, something external, or whatever, it is clear that it wouldn't be happening on YouTube if YouTube were to do something about it. I'd love to get et al's take on whether recent policy changes are helping

    The Q&A with is particularly telling: “We do find evident traces of user radicalization, and I guess the question asks why is YouTube responsible for this? And I guess the answer would be because many of these communities they live on YouTube..."

    There's a lot of different ways to study YouTube radicalization. The best would be if YouTube would actually open up this data to independent researchers. This paper does use an interesting methodology and concludes as anyone reading our tweets would expect

    They left us a sign! Still had the meeting, though, and it was very productive. will post notes and stuff tomorrow. Looking forward to our next meeting! Thanks to everyone who attended. If you'd like to get involved, my DMs are open, we'd love to have you.

    YouTube has utterly failed to do anything about this sort of radicalization pathway, other than deny it's a real thing, despite both a mountain of anecdotes and a ton of research. Something has to change. YouTube can't keep getting away with it.

    SF Pride has declared that the votes on our motions are invalid, but not because the members can't make such changes! Instead, they are claiming we don't have a quorum.  1/6

    350+ Amazon workers gave quotes attributed to their real names and positions - showing both the strength of and the urgency of their message. It's an important read.
