    So there's nothing on YT that could harm people? Nothing? Do you know there are videos of people sneaking across our border from Mexico? Do you know how many people die crossing the border every summer and winter? Why is YT encouraging something that could harm people?

    Here's a video on how to sneak into Canada. That's a crime, isn't it?

    How to (il)legally sneak into Canada

    Don't twist yourself into a pretzel justifying and excusing pure, undeniable, unquestionable political censorship. Everyone has absolutely no doubt that it's censorship, you're not fooling anyone.

    Just come out and state that you support censorship. You'll feel better right away when you openly express your honest views. I promise.

    Of course you can, and you should. It's not going to change anything, though. Taking your business elsewhere is best.

    Fauci said on March 20:
    Today this is considered false medical information but it was the law of the land no more than 8 months ago. When I see medical professionals changing their positions so radically in such short periods of time, I am left asking what in the hell is "false medical information"? When what is absolutely true today can be absolutely false tomorrow by the anointed ones, there can be only one rational response.... these are medical OPINIONS.... NOT IRREFUTABLE FACTS. If something is not an irrefutable fact, it is CRITICAL that it exposed to scrutiny. This insane idea that powerful people get to determine "facts" and ban all critical examination of those "facts" is harmful. The batting average of our "experts" seems to be far less than 50%.... they appear to be more useless and unhelpful than random chance.

    Nice try but that won’t cut it. A list of RW sites, some with paywalls, claiming that CNN lied isn’t evidence. It’s opinion. Bringing Schiff on and letting him express an opinion is not lying.
    I asked for a CNN story about Russian interference that was factually false.
    Give me a link to an original story that was factually incorrect.

    I've always been in favor of rule 230.

    I've got a published article against FOSTA ( under my real name ) in a major publication, which, in my view, carves out an exception to 230

    Intelligent discussion is not interested in a regurgitation of trump’s lies.

    This is the best come back you've managed to muster having been exposed as a supporter of censorship? Figures.

    People silenced by the totalitarians are moving from YouTube to Bit Chute and Rumble. Also from Twitter to Parler.

    So you're comfortable with supporting censorship. No doubts, no second thoughts like "hmm, should chi-Cowboy support what Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Chavez resorted to?". Right?

    Oh no, they're "lies".
    My 4 year old could have thought of that.

    YouTube isn't putting out the news...

    News agencies are putting out the news and putting their videos on YT.

    Goebbels would be so proud. I'm sure he probably told Hitler something similar.

    Media outlets?

    Whatever you want to call them, they're not YouTube, and YouTube is not them.

    I just visited Facebook. Haven’t been there for about a week.
    First things that show up are related to elections and how there is no fraud (their opinion).
    Then you look at your newsfeed and notice that only progressive posts show up from your progressive friends. Almost nothing for conservatives.

    People really need to disconnect from social media for a while to notice how much propaganda is being dumped on us when we visit these sites. This is sick! I’m not even talking about turning on your TV and watching “credible and unbiased” mainstream media news.

    Here is a dare for anyone willing to take it on. Register at Parler, view the parleys that show up on your newsfeed - pretty much all is very conservative. Then don’t visit social media sites for 2 weeks. Visit Parler. It becomes clear how hyper partisan that place is. Then visit Facebook. You’ll be shocked to notice how much leftist propaganda shows up on your news feed.
    Every time I visit Facebook now, I realize that I made the right call by discontinuing the use of social media platforms. You don’t really see your friends activities there, you see only what Facebook chose to show you.

    Propaganda is essentially news you don't like.

    From where I sit, the propaganda comes far more from the right.

    "Dems stole the election".

    "The press is the enemy of the people"

    "Man made climate change is a hoax".

    Now there's propaganda that no prior president has ever declared, right or left.

    Physician, heal thyself.

    I used to have facebook, but only for the games. I got banned for not using my real name. At least that's the official reason. I'd had facebook for years with the username I was using. Then I posted a few posts in support of Trump in 2016 and that's when they slammed me for not using my real name.

    I'll visit Twitter on occasion, but only to post a comment towards someone I particularly disagree with on occasion. I figure I do that about MAYBE once a month, more than likely once every two months.

    This is true...to an extent....YouTube may not be putting out the news...but they are pushing the news that they favor.

    Every YouTube account has suggested videos to watch which is based on your viewing history. More often than not you will see CNN, MSNBC, ABC News being shown more than Fox News in those suggested news. Over the past several months I've seen The Hill and Fox suggested MAYBE 10 times. The vast majority of the time though its been liberal news stations. At least that has been my experience. Funny enough, I mainly watch clips of old shows/movies or gaming videos far more than I watch of anything else.
