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."

How come the third stage has two parts?

Is that explained in the manual?

[Simon Foxx]

Well, I didn’t understand it because it scared me off from watching any of the video. I have no time for that stuff.

Let’s say its a funny way to make a point.

Come on, man. I have to believe you're better than that.

An honest day's work for an honest day's pay, right?

[TLI]

No, really.

I do remote sessions into clients computers and fix things for them.

So I am sitting here staring at three computer screens plus a couple of laptops that are identical to the users we work with.

Between calls I monitor self-service tickets that come to the Desk as well.

If I didn’t Freep when things are slow I would be face down in the keyboard (zzzzzzzzz) from sheer boredom.

Trust me, they make truckloads of money off of me.

I am just repeating what someone said here on FR. The proper way to make that statement is “ It came from a vandalized Wikipedia page!” My response would have been “ok!” Now I am left with the opinion that you’re a rude asshole!

And you are a gullible punk.

Funny how the old-timers are often chiding the tenderfeet about how much less civil and constructive the boards are these days.

Have things really changed that much?

Please do not interject FACTS into what has become one of the name-calling free-for-alls that seem to be more prevalent here on FR lately!

[BTW, I must be officially “Ancient” since I did not know who or what the Proud Boys are. Thanks for the enlightenment. No, I do not plan to seek membership. :-) ]

>>No grown adult conservative male would ever refer to himself as a ‘boy’, sorry not buying it.

That and according to a quick search, Gavin McInnes‘s most famous moment is filming himself shoving sex toys up his posterior and then putting the video online. I am not going to watch the video, so I will take the word of others.

If people want to associate with deviants like that, let them, but they can’t use terms like “conservative” when describing them.

>>The "fringe nobodies" are the ones out there in the streets fighting leftists

What do they accomplish fighting leftists “in the streets”. Is there a group of Senators and Representatives who see a video of a group of people beating up another group of people “in the streets” and say “you know what? I believe I will change my mind and vote differently, or propose a different piece of legislation?”

These fringe nobodies continued to follow a sexual deviant after he put video evidence of his sexual deviancy online. Just like with Qanon, the media uses these groups like “Proud Boys” to diminish the image of conservatives to make us look like deviants (or conspiracy nuts in the case of Q).

Apparently. I don’t post or follow FR regularly these days, but at some point in the past, the rules on profanity and personal attacks were definitely relaxed.

And we were hit with an influx of really sensitive snowflake types who can’t stand anybody who disagrees with them or their choice of candidates/politicians. Probably just millennials.
