There are some individual creators who are going to get a raw deal, in the short run, and that's a shame, but in the long run, in a community where the trolls are calling the shots, who doesn't get scr**ed over, in the end? Also, what other forward is there?

What kind of future is being built when marginalized people are slurred, harassed and bullied for years on end, and then that abuse vanishes from public view, because most of the people in a community are ready and eager to take part in a conspiracy of silence?

Anybody who has had the misfortune to being on the receiving of bigotry in a redneck town knows exactly what I'm talking about, when I refer to one of those, and that's exactly what Youtube has been functioning as: a giant redneck town. Why preserve that?

Are a few independent creators, who did nothing wrong, going to get hurt? Probably, but what is the inconvenience compared to the murders already carried out by Atomwaffen Division https://www.npr.org/2018/03/06/590292705/5-killings-3-states-and-1-common-neo-nazi-link … a neo-Nazi group that used Youtube to recruit followers?

We're supposed to worry about the independent creator, who is going to lose a source of income and have to go look for another way to make a living, but give no thought at all to the victims of neo-Naziism, as it makes a comeback with the help of Youtube and its community?

Those are the priorities we're supposed to make our own? Apparently so, and what an interesting comment on most of the people in this so-called discussion, Tim Pool included, that they are 100% comfortable with the idea of doing so.

These guys just watched an anti-Semitic troll gaslight and bait a Jew who mentioned the anti-Semitic abuse on Youtube, and what did they have to say as the troll told one bald faced lie after another, at the expense of the genuinely marginalized person that he was baiting?

Nothing. Not a word. The kindest interpretation of their actions that the facts will allow is that they were more concerned about their easy money and free entertainment than they were about human rights. Is there anybody here who doesn't know what a Nazi is? What they do?

I can go do a search https://www.google.com/search?q=youtube+nazi+murder … and find articles like this one https://www.propublica.org/article/despite-crackdowns-white-supremacist-and-neo-nazi-videos-take-stubborn-root-on-youtube … but why should I have to do so, when everybody present knows the truth, already, even before I do that?

What does it say about a community when I'm expected to do that? When people have to be forced to admit the truth, instead of doing so freely? How about that Youtube is a community of psychopaths lead by an elite of sociopathic creators?

Sweetly smiling sociopaths who will talk about the better, more rational, more civil future they're trying to help build, while doing their part to create a fertile environment for the re-growth of evils that sane, decent people thought were dead and gone.

Sorry to hear about somebody's little ambient noise or gaming channel, but we've got bigger issues to worry about, and Vimeo seems to be doing just fine at the moment. They can move your videos over there.
