      Steven Crowder is an unfunny blowhard, but Carlos Maza is professional adult journalist employed by a major media organization -- not some kid being bullied on a playground. The idea that YouTube needs to "protect" him is ridiculous and infantilehttps://spectator.us/steven-crowder-carlos-maza-playground/ …

      I don't know if Maza self-describes as a "journalist" but he produces political content for Vox under the ostensible guise of journalism. Either way, he's employed by a major media organization. Variety calls him a "chronically bullied gay Hispanic video journalist"pic.twitter.com/aAeP0ReWeb

          I'm sorry but if you actually enjoy this crap you're almost certainly a gigantic dunce. Good thing you don't have to defend someone on the merits to defend them against being arbitrarily penalized by tech companies in response to hysterical mob pressure!pic.twitter.com/6Co9G8HTxc

          Crowder is a juvenile doofus, but Maza is juvenile in his own special way by demanding that tech authorities impose disciplinary action on his adversaries. If you can't withstand mockery online, don't choose a profession that entails making provocative political statements online

          If you're a public figure, like Maza, you simply have to expect ridicule: including the kind of buffoonish, demeaning ridicule Crowder specializes in. It comes with the territory. Your aversion to mean insults doesn't entitle you to dictate what speech is permitted on YouTube

          Turning the tech companies -- who were never supposed to be active arbiters of speech, just facilitators of it -- into functionaries of the government and the elite media, with all the political baggage that entails, is extremely dangerous. If you can't see that, you're a moron

          Crowder and Maza feed off each other in a perverse way. They're both invested in stoking petty online culture war battles, because it's good for their respective "brands." If these are the types of people elevated to the top of the contemporary media hierarchy, we're 100% screwed

          Those were the things about which Crowder seemed to think were super important to bring up every time he mentioned him. So, take it up with him.

          Dude, I don't know what has changed, but I have been following you for a couple years, but the last couple months your account has made me very happy with the stances you have taken. I feel like you are an honest journalist, and I really appreciate that.

          They can't make everybody happy, so they can't make anybody happy. That should force platforms out of the business of censorship or someone will start a crowdfunded platform for idea exchange, free of nothing and toxic as all hell, free to viewers.
