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."

Are you arguing with me? I said you could be right. It may not be true.

So why are you taking offense at that? Perhaps you’re wrong, and jacking off is verboten with the Proud Boys?

Make up you mind on which point to argue. Thanks.

"I'm increasingly concluding that Free Republic is populated mostly by people who visit no other websites"

Couldn't have said it better myself.

The caves that some Freepers live in are mighty deep and awfully dark.

I agree. It’s demoralizing.

Even so, they should know the left are ON THE MARCH and they’re determined to RULE at all costs. None of this sh!t is evenly remotely amusing.

I watched it, and I’ve followed him on CRTV for a while (CRTC now defunct, my subscription went to BlazeTV a couple of days ago).

He’s really not an anti-semite, but he does nearly always take a contrarian view. So when he was on the sponsored Israel trip (which he has since spoken of glowingly on his Get Off My Lawn show), he resented the perceived anti-American view by his tour guide at the Holocaust Museum exhibit in Israel. The tour guide mentioned nobody came to the aid of the Jews in camps during the war, it was only afterwards (almost entirely true) but Gavin saw that as a slight to the Allies, who are responsible for overthrowing the Nazis to begin with.

Being anti-semitic would go against the Proud Boy ethic, not to mention his frequent declarations of support for Israel, etc.

On the other hand he must realize that one of his rituals of indoctrination into the Proud Boys included getting a tattoo, something that would be abhorrent to Torah-keepers.

So as of a couple of weeks ago he has renounced his Proud Boys membership (a very informal organization anyway), saying it is not important to him — it’s more important to help with the defense of nine members that were arrested in the recent dust-up with antifa at a Manhattan Republican Club appearance.

He’s a former rabble-rouser (no longer wants to be arrested) who has matured and become a family man. He’s more Libertarian than conservative.

In my view the Proud Boys are a positive development, though I think the true, original Proud Boys are Veterans, who put their patriotic duty first, with real skin in the game.

For the love of Christ, that claim came from a vandalized Wikipedia page.

How gullible are you?

All you have to do is correct yourself, like a man would.

From video 9:30 said, "when I was a kid the left was never the aggressors."

The left was always the aggressors (National Socialists, Communist and so on.) Whoever Rogan is has a twisted way of remembering things.

Over-reliance on Masturbation is creating weak, docile males. This nofap movement is supposed to create a more aggressive, testosterone-laden young male. Which in turn leads to lifting, not taking shit about being white and more importantly to get out and claim ye a young white goddess to have kids.

That's as far as I read. He's anything but, but I feel no pity as he cucked badly in an effort to distance himself from the PBs.

Yes, not to mention offsets the fact that sperm counts are down 30 percent on average over the last 30 years.

Or alternatively we could just languish like the socialist Euros, with fertility rates hovering around 1.6, promote abortions and RU-486, promote promiscuity and alt-genderism, all moves that kill off healthy societies — then finally import millions of non-assimilating immigrants to take up the labor slack.

Not working out for the Euros.

Many of these comments would serve to confirm your suspicions.

If that is the part I am thinking of he was refering to the 60s hippies. I cant check I actually am at work right now.

But I think that is what he was refering to...

You really ought to know what you're talking about before making such an accusation.

Humblegunner has confronted leftists during street rallies and protests on more than one occasion. I know this to be a fact, though he doesn't brag about it.

I'll have to hear it from someone other than Joe Rogan.

I don't need my ears assaulted by someone who drops a four letter word every three minutes.
