Flat Earth -- DEAD!!

[Softball Bat]

YouTube has announced that it will no longer recommend videos that "come close to" violating its
community guidelines, such as conspiracy or medically inaccurate videos.

YouTube said in the post that the action is meant to "reduce the spread of content that comes close
to — but doesn't quite cross the line of — violating" its community policies. The examples the company
cited include "promoting a phony miracle cure for a serious illness, claiming the earth is flat, or making
blatantly false claims about historic events like 9/11."

"It's only the beginning of a more humane technology. Technology that empowers all of us, instead of
deceiving the most vulnerable," Chaslot wrote...

bwaaa...




Weak sauce.

It's how fearful nazis roll.

Not really surprising.

The San Francisco Bay Area has announced that it will no longer recommend videos that "come close to" violating its
community guidelines, such as conspiracy or medically inaccurate videos.

Rack us.

What the hell. Why remove the comedy gold? Some of those vids we were linked up to were some of the funniest things I have ever seen.

Slowly but surely our rights are being taken away. First our privacy, now freedom of speech, if there aren't platforms to voice questions, comments, opinions etc, all that is left is fake or compromised news. I'm sure it won't be long before our 2nd amendment rights are also stripped. I'm starting to feel like a guinea pig being feed shit pellets......

It's how facists roll, pop. On that much, I think we agree.

People should be able to post whatever they want, regardless of how batshit crazy it is.

yt could easily address what they consider harmful information, by simply tagging it as such. But that is not good enough for facist. They must have absolute control of information. Anything else makes managing the herd more difficult.

It figures toolio is on board with it.

Joe Rogan's most recent podcast with Tim Pool covers this as well as media bias across all social media platforms. Almost a 3 hour podcast but we'll worth the listen.

Sort of like bakeries?

The key difference between YouTube and T1B is that there are alternatives for T1B. There aren't for YouTube.

[smackaholic]

Like T1B, YouTube is a private entity, and accordingly can place restrictions on content as it deems appropriate.

So, you’re fine with this the ?

I expected as much from complete leftist goose steppers as toolio. I hoped you still had a shred of character left, despite a scorching case of TDS. I guess I was wrong.

You know that YT is so universal that it ought to be held to a different standard and you’d be the first to complain were YT suppressing “progressive” ideas which they deemed unworthy.

If someone doesn't like youtube, don't go there.

They fear 9/11 talk and they fear flat earth talk.

Why?


We know why.

Wait, what?

Allowing a private entity to choose what they publish is a rather libertarian concept.

You're tarding hard.

When Google/YouTube pay off or strong-arm device manufacturers or suppliers to block services for competitors or break interoperability, they are no longer a "private entity".

Were YT some fringe site in a corner of the interwebs, like this shithole, I would agree.

But it isn't.

It is ubiquitous. Used by damn near everyone as a place to get info. It is basically the public square, so it should be held to a different standard.

[Shlomart Ben Yisrael]

Not anymore. He deleted all his posts and nuked his account...







...over there.

[smackaholic]

but censoring them from YT or FB is in effect, silencing them.

Youtube isn't "silencing" flat earthers.

They will just no longer be recommending videos that promote flat earth.

The videos are still available, but of course they will not be viewed nearly as widely as they are when we all get videos recommended to us.


Youtube is fearful of the topic.

Or do people really think Youtube is looking out for the best interest of the folks?

lol


They fear flat earth.

It is hilarious -- and very telling.

[FiatLux]

Rack us .

We now own your thought process.

yt in Houston?

I've been telling you tards for the last 4 years... you will do what I/we tell you to do (San Francisco)


This thread is comedy Gold.


It's fun watching our peasants running around with their heads cut off... acting like they weren't forewarned.



Too funny!

Anyone who is able to use their own mind can realize that this piece of crap did not go to the moon.

Foil, tape, curtains...

Wtf?

People believe this shit??





Conspiracy nuts are a danger.

[Kierland]

The government isn't censoring them, YT and FB are, and that is an important constitutional distinction.

They are involved in interstate commerce so they can and should be regulated. If that means telling them to leave up flat earth videos then so be it.

[Left Seater]

As we have discussed, there are existing public flights over Antarctica that will disprove your flat earth theory. And as we have discussed, I will pay for your trip in full should you go on it and the earth be revealed as flat. Better yet, the public will soon be able to make trips into space, and my offer stands for that as well. So buy your ticket, I'll buy a bond, and we can easily resolve it.

And as we've discussed, I hope it is proved that earth is flat. It isn't, of course. But it would fun to watch the chaos that such a revelation would create.

I would split such cost with JSC. I have also offered to pay for a flight between Southern Hemisphere cities. But of course there have been excuses on Softball’s quest to learn.

[Softball Bat]

The guy is a flake

Flake is code for liar.


I've seen this.

I laffed.

[Softball Bat]

What fact?

[Kierland]

Melt much?

[Rooster]

Sort of like bakeries?

You don't get it. Bakeries are obligated to bake cakes that say anything, even if it violates their religious beliefs. To allow a public accommodation to get away with treating some people differently would take us back to the Jim Crow days.

Youtube.com is a public accommodation. They can refuse to provide their services to people who do not toe the Team D party line because anyone who doesn't toe the Team D party line is a fascist, racist, homophobic asshole who should be lined up and shot or put in a gas chamber.


Whoa, I think OAC left the wrong "talking points" out for me again today. Fuck. Scratch the "lined up and shot or put in a gas chamber" line and insert "encouraged to do more to save the planet and the children" or something like that. Maybe mention puppies.

This was just your rough draft of a future policy paper, right? Didn’t intend to publish it, was a mistake, and now mean ol’ Mitch McConnell is gonna make you vote on your own rough draft. The horrah!

[Softball Bat]

Stop mumbling, tubby.
You're making no sense and nobody cares.

Shut it down.
