Hi All, I'm back, and jumping in headfirst. Have you seen YouTube's new policy? I'm sure this will lead to bad things, but I want to use it for some good. Please help me ban the male supremacist Turd Flinging Monkey (TFM) from YouTube.

You can't start banning people and censoring some because eventually it impacts us all. Why is this so difficult to grasp?

I draw the line at those who willfully spread misinformation, advocate acts of violence, or harmful acts of subversion. I'll never do any of the above, so that will never impact me. Why is this so difficult to grasp?

1. If you take them off YouTube, they go somewhere else and concentrate and thrive. 2. Who decides what is hate? 3. Did you see they base their policy on gender not sex? Any policy promoting women’s rights violates this policy.

1. Not true, Milo Yiannopolos and Alex Jones are not thriving, they have both taken massive hits and are fading from relevance. 2. Those who are impacted by it. 3. Yes, and if this policy bans women and not people like TFM, it's a grave injustice I will never forgive them for.

You are supporting the policy that will be used to silence women. It’s used to silence women on here. Principles above personalities.

No, I'm maintaining my principles just fine thanks. I'm trying to direct the policy so that atrocities like that don't happen. That can only happen if we make our voices heard. If
@TeamYouTube refuses to hear them, we have direct evidence of the injustice of their policy.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
The policy exists. There's nothing we can do to change it. Boycotting will do nothing but further silence us. We need to make our voices heard and direct the policy to increase, not decrease, women's well-being. Per it's wording, channels like TFM's absolutely should be banned.
