I do find it a little strange that Tim came across yet another example of Anti-Alt-Right videos being struck down(see) @ContraPoints @shaun_jen @4lternate_facts @_ThreeArrows etc by flagging groups that we know exist on /pol/ & Discord who will mass flag videos with sock accounts

He then claims that I didn't answer his original question in my 1st response. But I clearly said at the end of my post that if YouTube didn't have a poor track record of enforcement & communication & made it clear that my video debunking alt-right propaganda was not acceptable-

- but alt-right propaganda videos were, I would argue that those are a very strange & bad set of principles, but I wouldn't be okay with people bypassing their Limited State.pic.twitter.com/gZrCWruvtj

I would argue against what YouTube counts as being inappropriate & deserving of censorship, not that YouTube shouldn't censor some things I can say that I think a system should exist & still criticize it if I think it functions poorly or is being exploited & not contradict myself

If Tim agrees that some things i.e. terrorist execution videos or calls to violence, should be censored, wouldn't he fall into the same supposed dilemma that he claims I am in if one of his videos is flagged? We would just disagree on where the line should be drawn.

Finally, there is his argument "If the far right videos have more views wouldn't it make sense that the left mass flags them as well"

I don't know of any Leftist groups that target & mass flag videos. As pointed out already, we know that these exist on the far right.

I would argue that if propaganda videos are allowed by YouTube, but videos debunking them are not, then that is an example of the system not working or being applied unevenly, which Tim even agrees with at the end of his video. But that doesn't mean a system should exist at all.
