    Even if true, Google executives can do whatever in the f&%k they want. It's their platform, their company, their resources.

    A clue about what? The sheep in this thread want to the government dictate how a private company must conduct their business. I'm fundamentally against that. And you should be too.

    Tell that to the reporters at the WaPo and NYT and I will agree. Best recent example is the firing of the Newsweek reporter who had an agenda.

    This private platform does not owe Trump a soapbox. And, honestly, I've probably seen more Trump ads on Youtube than I have for any other candidate. And I've probably seen more ads for Trump on YT than I have for him on any other platform. Anecdotal, but I don't find the victim narrative here compelling.

    Following that vein is it safe to assume you do not support government price controls or restrictions on the sale of drugs, cigarettes, the minimum wage, healthcare costs, etc?

    I understand the ads were removed because they violated policy in they made false accusations or the ads lied or did something bad.

    If anyone can shoe that the ads were wrongfully removed ring in hour proof.

    This is America, comrade. No oindividual and no entity, public or private, is above criticism.

    That goes for Google/You Tube and its bias and censorship, comrade. It's free to silence whoever it wants on its platforms, but it is not free to silence anyone outside them. If anyone wants to criticize Google/You Tube for its bias and censorship or anything else for that matter, they are free to do so.

    Because, this is America, comrade, and now you know.

    Yep, that's true. Conservatives normally champion freedom of speech and all of that even for corporations, so presumably they shouldn't be bothered if Google and YouTube are biased. Of course, if that were the case, one would also hope that they would be upfront about it and not falsely claim that they're taking ads down for other reasons.

    I can only assume that there were legitimate reasons for taking them down. Given that it's Trump's campaign, a campaign that undoubtedly repeats lies and disinformation as a matter of course, it would not surprise me if they are violating advertising rules.

    If you read the article it was clear they removed those ads because they promoted conspiracy theories.

    I don't know about you, but I think pay-back for this kind of crap is good, and overdue.

    “In recent weeks, special prosecutor Francis Schmitz has hit dozens of conservative groups with subpoenas demanding documents related to the 2011 and 2012 campaigns to recall Governor Walker and state legislative leaders,” the Wall Street Journal writes.
    It continues, “Copies of two subpoenas we’ve seen demand ‘all memoranda, email . . . correspondence, and communications’ both internally and between the subpoena target and some 29 conservative groups, including Wisconsin and national nonprofits, political vendors and party committees. The groups include the League of American Voters, Wisconsin Family Action, Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, Americans for Prosperity—Wisconsin, American Crossroads, the Republican Governors Association, Friends of Scott Walker and the Republican Party of Wisconsin.”
    CAPITOL CITY PROJECT, Homes raided, subpoenas issued targeting conservative groups and allies of Scott Walker," By Joe Schoffstall, November 18, 2013.

    This is how disinformation works. It tells you that legitimate law enforcement activities are politically tainted and a conspiracy orchestrated by some amorphous evil, in this case "the deep state." You're being manipulated.

    Glad to hear that YouTube did this.

    They really NEED to shutdown all these RW Trolls (before the 2020 Election).

    They really need to up this action 100-Fold.

    This is a very TINY (and Much-Needed) STEP in playing Whack-a-Mole with these RW Internet Trolls.

    A Good Start. (But, Much Work Left to do).:salute:
