leave YouTube to their devices and then maybe everybody will move to twitch and YT can die.

Normies aren't going to stop using YouTube, and it's normies that ultimately dictate what platforms are the most prominent and where the majority of content creators are going to be.

Alex Jones is free to make his own website and upload videos there. I'm sure his cult will go watch him.

Okay? I'm not taking about Jones anymore.

I'm talking about alternative platforms becoming viable for large creators. Until your average person starts using them, most creators will continue to use mainstream sites like YouTube. I wouldn't expect people to uproot their followers by moving to another platform and risk losing a huge number of them for the sake of using a more free and open platform.

Truly a sad day for memes. Pour one out for the gay frogs.

Dark day for freedom.

These websites aren’t as untocheable as you guys are making them out to be. I wouldn’t be surprised if the large majority of content creators aren’t at least very irritated with YT these days.

I know a bunch of fairly large creators that are particularly annoyed with YT. It's just that there is no viable alternative platform for most of them besides maybe twitch, and that's only for the gamers or artists I watch. Most creators really don't have any other place to go. No where else has the sheer amount of viewers YT can provide.

Oh right I forgot this site is pretty much Sapphire now. Just ban me. Seriously. There's nothing of value on this website anymore and hasn't been for years.

So what you're saying is... this is the opportunity to start selling sep7agon tshirts.

Just remember when you get banned no one will stand to you because you didn't stand free speech for others.

As long as he did nothing illegal then I have more respect for any platform that doesn't ban him or Infowars. I may not care for Alex Jones but I do like when any site upholds the values of freedom of expression even though they aren't legally required to.

Exactly, and this is the answer to that regurgitated XKCD comic verb posted. No one here is a lawyer - we're not arguing constitutional law. We're arguing ethics and morality. Just because something is legal doesn't make it right.

Welp all the more evidence that almost all media is run by the left.

Damn if they stopped trying to brainwash people and maybe give a shit about actual problems we might get somewhere.

I've been in Japan almost a year and I still can't find one of those boo cakes, even though I keep asking people.
