Conservatives have been mass-flagging videos for nonsensical reasons and getting them removed by brute-forcing YouTube's report function for years.

I know Contra, Shaun, Sam Seder, David Pakman have all had videos mass flagged in the past. Videos that were highly critical of some conservative shit or another. Unless you want to make the argument it was leftists playing 4D chess, it seems quite likely it was conservatives.

What I would say is if you look at leading Conservative figures you will see that practically all of them support Free Speech and none have called for flagging campaigns whereas many figures on the left like Carlos Maza, for instance, have called for flagging campaigns against...

'Free Speech' is just a dog whistle for 'Conservatives can say whatever they want and not face even so much as criticism for it'. Why do you think they never speak up about it when leftists are silenced or censored? Maza never called for a flagging campaign.

“Dog whistle” is a dog whistle for, “I just want to censor people I disagree with.” Also amazing that free speech was promoted strongly by the left up to around the Occupy time. Now censorship is the modus operandi. But you think it’s just the right. Hell ACLU was big into it

Nobody's preventing you from posting videos on your own website.

The Private Company argument simply does not work, For Example, would you consider it just if Twitter just banned every left winger for hate speech and their only response to it was that they can simply go to a different social media page?

Leftists, by and large, don't peddle hate speech. Hate speech has a meaning, and as much as it upsets you, it's overwhelming done by the right, not the left.

I’m an old school libertarian/classical liberal, so free speech was always something that helped me identify with the left and distance myself from conservatives. The left/right stance on free speech has completely flipped and now the right is the bastion.
