God forbid someone make a joke....Freedom of expression in the modern public square should not be infringed. These are monopolies and should be broken up and/or be subject to the 1st amendment.

Well guess what, this isn’t a public square it’s a private company who have terms of service. Crowder broke the terms and should be punished accordingly

Replying to @realajfstudios @stranded_360 and
YT determined that he had not broken the terms of service. I read that the clip was filmed 21 years ago, and the show was making fun of it. So, it's a bit taken out of context. I support free speech for everyone, even if I don't like what some people say. Cheers!

freedom of speech doesnt apply here... its a private business. youtube can do whatever they want its time to get off the first amendment in these conversations youtube can censor or not censor whoever they want.

YES, free speech is for protection from government prosecution, while YouTube's a private company with its own terms/rules. I responded to @realajfstudios about a Terms of Service violation; YT decided they'd not been violated, due to parody exemptions they felt were applicable.
