YouTube to Remove Thousands of Videos Pushing Extreme Views

He's being downvoted because his comment is not constructive and is a knee jerk reaction to reading the title of the post, not because people disagree with him

Let's be clear here. The left is hoping that anything that doesn't conform to their worldview of identity politics, socialism, climate change will be banned. In other words, they're hoping that conservatives, libertarians, and others that don't conform to the leftist hive-mind will be banned.

If I were Google I'd be very careful here with the DOJ knocking on their door.

Extreme political views. The title is missing a very important qualifier.

I added it, although the it's on the NYT website.

And here we go. As usual the "racist" pretext is being used to censor videos.

I have no doubt that there are some terrible awful racist videos in that lot but you have to wonder how many times this is ALSO used as a mean to censor pretty much any video that the youtube execs don't like. Censorship is getting worse

Edit: Replacing "Censorship is coming back" with "Censorship is getting worse"
