I will henceforth stop calling that firm by name.
Its appropriate name is “GUULAG” (hat tip to The People’s Cube).

Plus look for Google/YouTube to hear these famous words: “see you in court.”

I smell a potential class action and/or some potential antitrust issues.

Enough is enough. There need to be conservative alternatives—or effective pushback—for every one of these entities.

They started the censoring on a small scale, and kept increasing their Hand incrementally. Boiled Frog.

When oh when will wealthy populists create viable competitive alternatives?

“Demonetization” happens when you say ‘yes’ in your YouTube account, to allow Google to attach ads to your videos. It cost the videomaker nothing but time to make and upload a video.

It has been since Google acquired YouTube, during the time of Obama, that all this ‘ad stuff’ came up. I joined YouTube before Obama and the subsequent acquisition of YouTube by Google. With the videos I uploaded, i did not care for any ads to be attached. If i’m talking a political point, i didn’t want an ad for Depends attached, or some such thing. I was making and giving the videos and viewpoints freely, and was not out for money. No ads, no stick for Google to shake at me.

Since then, all this ‘see my Patreon account so i can continue to bring these videos’, is actually becoming a video u-no-what.

I’m saddened to hear that Diamond and Silk are being targeted. They are NOT the only ones having it fall upon them.

Just one more SCOTUS appointment and massive, left-leaning, monopolies that target anyone right of Marx and label them as the enemy... will be in for a very rough time.

If only Ginsberg would shuffle off...sigh

Sure hope Fox News picks up on this story.

If anyone would pick up on it, it would be Sean Hannity or maybe Jesse Watters. Diamond and Silk were in-studio guests on both shows just last week.

Eff You Tube! Eff Google!

Bannon is right. The US govt. should take Google and Facebook.

Diamond and Silk are biological sisters. Interesting. I love them.
