YouTube has permanently banned another conservative personality for posting a video questioning the effectiveness of masks against the spread of COVID, despite the fact that the head of the CDC now admits masks are ineffective.
Fox News host Dan Bongino received the ban after he attempted to upload another video on a different channel while he had a temporary suspension concerning the original mask video.
YouTube explained in a statement that “When a channel receives a strike, it is against our Terms of Service to post content or use another channel to circumvent the suspension.”
“If a channel is terminated, the uploader is unable to use, own or create any other YouTube channels,” the statement also notes.
YouTube is enforcing a so called ‘medical misinformation policy’ which Google details prohibits users from claiming “that masks do not play a role in preventing the contraction or transmission of COVID-19.”
It is also wrongthink to suggest “that wearing a mask is dangerous or causes negative physical health effects.”
However, the CDC last week revised its guidelines on masks, admitting that cloth masks do virtually nothing to stop the spread of COVID.
Does this mean snot-nosed censors at YouTube will come to my office and kiss my … and admit I was right?https://t.co/0BZ2HZHiZW
— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) January 15, 2022 Responding to the ban, Bongino said YouTube is run by “communists” adding that the platform is trying to “save face” by banning him after he already announced that he is quitting and moving to Rumble, following the example of Senator Rand Paul.
Paul also received a YouTube suspension last year for questioning the efficacy of face masks, despite the fact that the Senator’s comments were virtually identical to those made by Biden’s former COVID adviser Dr. Michael Osterholm on CNN the same week.
Numerous top public health officials have also pointed out that face masks are largely useless, including Dr. Anthony Fauci himself.
In a February 2020 email, Fauci wrote that a typical store-bought face mask “is not really effective in keeping out virus, which is small enough to pass through material.”
As previously highlighted, Dr Colin Axon, a SAGE advisor for the UK government, dismissed face masks as “comfort blankets” that do virtually nothing, noting that the COVID-19 virus particle is up to 5,000 times smaller than the holes in the mask.
“The small sizes are not easily understood but an imperfect analogy would be to imagine marbles fired at builders’ scaffolding, some might hit a pole and rebound, but obviously most will fly through,” Axon said.
A peer reviewed study involving 6,000 participants in Denmark revealed that “there was no statistically significant difference between those who wore masks and those who did not when it came to being infected by Covid-19,” the Spectator reported.
While the CDC is finally admitting cloth masks are useless, it’s not part of a move away from masks. Instead, it’s intended to promote the use of stronger K95 masks that many find even more inhibiting.
The CDC notes that “well-fitting disposable surgical masks and KN95s” provide more protection against the virus, and is now urging Americans to “wear the most protective mask that you can that fits well and that you will wear consistently.”
Two months ago, The New York Times published an article citing “experts” who say mask wearing is now “normalized” and could remain in place permanently even when the pandemic ends.
Governments have been accused of obsessively pushing face masks as both a constant visual reminder for the pandemic, and as a “punishment” for those who continue to oppose restrictions and vaccine mandates.
Dan “Blackface” Bongino (from his podcast): I’m a Libertarian!
Never expect consistency, logic or fairness from liberals.
He had planned on it happening for a while and made arrangements for his videos elsewhere . He’s no dummy. YT is tho.
No matter what they do, the fact remains that as to whether or not a person gets and/or transmits the Fauci Flu — or any respiratory virus for that matter — has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not they wear a mask ... or, for that matter it’s clear ... whether or not they’re “vaccinated.”
Dan Bongino has a huge following on Rumble. Over 2 million subscribers. Youtube’s loss.
Instead of critically thinking and learning/understanding the “Science” they profess to partake in, the Karens of the world slap you down without checking their 6.
Rumble is growing while Fakebook is shrinking.
I would take all these changes in procedure more seriously if they published numbers to back them up rather than saying "as of today cloth masks don't work". So, what's the penetration rate of typical water droplets from exhalation through cloth, surgical and N95 masks?
I just signed up for Rumble yesterday.
To the prog it's not about if they do or don't work, it has become the visual symbol display of a Covidian true believer.
Thou Shalt Mask is the commandment.
Thou Shalt Vaxx is the path to forgiveness via The Card.
Transgressors will be attacked.
Facts do not matter because there is only The Truth.
.
The CDC threw out 40 years of studies saying masks don't work for viruses. N95 might offer a slight level of protection if fit tested by professionals. The idea of masking is that it might offer some level of protection against large droplet transmission. I live in a blue state/county with good mask and vaccine compliance. Cases and hospitalizations have never been higher. January 2022 deaths are at 29 and the month isn't over yet. Total deaths for January 2021 were 22. Total fail...

Good man. It’s a great relief to be free of the censored hell of YouTube.
