YouTube bans Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes
The Hill ^ | 12/10/18 | Hayley Miller

Posted on 12/10/2018 2:44:43 PM PST by Blue House Sue

Far-right activist Gavin McInnes has been kicked off YouTube, the latest social media platform to cut ties with him or his group, the Proud Boys.

The Daily Beast reported Monday that YouTube has banned McGinnes, who had more than 220,000 subscribers before the ban.

A statement on McInnes's YouTube page says that the channel has been terminated after “multiple third-party claims of copyright infringement.”

"When a copyright holder notifies us of a video that infringes on their copyright, we act quickly to remove content as is required of us by law," a YouTube spokesperson told The Hill. "We terminate the accounts of repeat offenders."

Who the hell are these ‘proud boys’ groups? It sounds like the log cabin republicans.

The vid that got Gavin banned was the one from he made while on his sponsored trip to Israel:

This is why the GOP will never come down too hard on Big Tech. In addition to the piles of payola cash of course. The GOPe is expecting Silicon Valley to censor and clamp down on conservative dissent. That will make organizing a 3rd party organization much more difficult.

I still don’t know exactly what “The proud boys” are. I see video of them being pretty rough.

But I see and hear only what the media wants me to see and hear so I take that with a grain of salt. It’s not as easy as the Tea Party to figure things out.

I met them at the snipes rally. They seemed like good patriots to me.

They’re super famous

So is Beyonce and Michael Jackson.

Also Justin Beiber and George Michael.

What's your point?

But that video is STILL on youtube, posted by him. So something doesn’t compute. BTW, the name of the video “I’m becoming anti-semitic” does not exactly endear him to me.

Anti-semites are the lowest form of humanity - always have been always will. I stopped right there and will not watch a single minute.

This is why conservatives are losing.

Not even republicans - just men who refuse to believe in sJW propaganda - that a man is a man and a woman is a woman and that western civilization and culture should be celebrated - not demonized.

This of course makes them raciss and a hate group.

The time for organizing, joining and doing is about right now, don’t you think?

Sure doesn't look that way but keep blowing smoke up your own ass if it makes you feel better.
