So, I have pretty thick skin when it comes to online harassment, but something has been really bothering me.

Maybe don't say your helping the guy who is actively encouraging his followers to abuse the flagging system on your platform?https://twitter.com/gaywonk/status/1134267702078562310?s=19 …

Carlos MazaVerified account @gaywonkAnyway, if you want to help, I guess you can go to this dude's videos and flag them? But@YouTube isn't going to do anything, because YouTube does not give a fuck about queer creators. It cares about "engagement," and homophobic/racist harassment is VERY "engaging."Show this thread2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -
If they’d follow their own TOS, he wouldn’t need to. It’s not abuse to flag a video that you actually find offensive.

It is abuse when you openly encourage all the people who follow, and probably will listen to you, to go and flag any video of someone's blindly. Offense is subjective, and fascism like that shouldn't be encouraged.

But they are in violation of YouTube’s terms of service. They actively go after him and encourage ridicule. It’s not “blind” anything if you show people exactly what they’re doing. We can see that they attack him personally. If you don’t see any offense, then don’t flag him.
