Youtube/Google is evil, time to fight back
cdev:
Everything Google does is fake and a calculated strategy to deceive the public.
This is the era of fake everything. Including Reptilians.

I don't follow her channel, but going by Google's super woke ads, I would have thought they'd love her. She's a Chinese lesbian with fake tits, which should help, rather than hinder her. Google claim to be all for the rights of ethnic minorities, women performing traditionally thought of as men's jobs and LGBTQ rights and she ticks plenty of boxes. She should tell YouTube, they're discriminating against because she's a gay Chinese woman and be sure to use the following words: racist, homophobic and misogynist. Those words trigger woketard managers.

She and her viewers objectify whamen and promote harmful stereotypes which lead to discrespecting whamen.
Also, think of all the young girls who will believe they also need to get implants just to be accepted in the industry.
Besides, all social justice is manufactured by Reptilians. They pick a cause which aligns with their goals and then the media promote the cause and then you end up believing the cause. Starting with a belief (even if one promoted last year) and expecting the media to promote it now is 100% backwards, you might as well go and start giving orders to the Lizards.

What's so bad is it wasn't because of anything she said on Patreon, but elsewhere online. If Dave says something they dislike on this forum, they might ban him. It doesn't matter if you agree with Sydney's political views or not and this isn't the place to discuss them. The fact companies are monitoring people's online activity and banning them because they say something they don't like is dangerous.

I've never heard of her and have no idea what her views are, but watching that video I would say she's intelligent, articulate and overall sounds very reasonable. Whether we call it "cancel culture", a "culture war" or something else, this banning people over random things they do or say somewhere is scary, it is quite literally authoritarian oppression no different than what the most reviled tyrants throughout history have done. Every one of those tyrants and their followers believed in their cause, believed they were on the right side of history and believed what they were doing to be noble and just. The irony is that type of personality will steadfastly refuse to see the similarity between what they're doing and what other authoritarian figures of the past have done. The only good thing about it is that these movements have a tendency to eat their own as they get divided by various purity tests and eventually collapse.

The most scary thing about cancel culture is that you get one chance. One bad word and they non-person you, you will lose your income and will be an outcast.
Society decided some time ago, that we will not do capital punishment, and even after being convicted for crimes (after prison), you can redeem yourself and re integrate.
Not anymore, because whatever you did stays online forever, and you will be a pariah. One word on a bad day.

Yes and the very same people fall all over themselves to demonize the justice system, to fight against excessive prison sentences, to fight against capital punishment, to give every criminal chance after chance after chance. Yet ironically they are happy to completely destroy a person's life over a single comment made somewhere, even if it was 20+ years ago, and there is no path to redemption. An apology is never enough, in fact it is the opposite, it is an admission of guilt. Never, ever apologize, they will spot the weak moment and pounce like a gazelle on a sick and straggling prey.

Video platform chief says Nazi posts on white superiority do not merit removal
A leaked email from an Odysee executive suggests the site favoured by the far right could do more to restrict extremists
A top executive at the video sharing platform Odysee wrote guidance to moderators in late April that a “Nazi that makes videos about the superiority of the white race” would not be grounds by itself for removal from the platform, according to a leaked email obtained by the Guardian. The platform, whose owner, LBRY Inc, is currently being sued by the Securities and Exchange Commission for trading in unregistered securities, has been increasingly popular with extremists who have been banned from other platforms, and who are attracted by Odysee’s cryptocurrency-based monetization program.
Explosives and weaponry found at US far-right protests, documents revealThe emails, sent in error to a user who had been complaining about neo-Nazi content on the platform, suggest that the platform is not doing as much as it can to restrict extremists. Initially, the user had emailed Odysee’s general contact address to warn that “Nazi propagandist Eric Striker has announced plans to use Odysee to stream his podcast”, referring to the alias used by New York-based neo-Nazi Joseph Jordan. The user then linked to Jordan’s channel on the site, as well as 10 other additional neo-Nazi, white nationalist or far-right extremist channels.
Jordan has been a key figure in the half-decade-long resurgence of white supremacist organizing, having collaborated with US-based organizers for the neo-fascist Golden Dawn party, participated in the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017, and lent his support to the formation of the white nationalist and antisemitic National Justice party. His most energetic work has been as what the Southern Poverty Law Center describes as “one of the most prolific content creators in the alt-right”: as a writer or podcaster. He has contributed prolifically to influential extremist outlets like the Daily Stormer, the Right Stuff podcast network and to his own website, National Justice. Asked about Jordan’s activities, an SPLC spokesman, Michael Edison Hayden, wrote in an email that, “Joseph Jordan will tell you to an inch away from your face that he’s a proud neo-Nazi. He’s also arguably the most prolific hate propagandist of the last five years, and his venom comes out very, very sharply in particular for Jewish people and the LGBTQ community.”
Hayden added: “That’s why tech companies typically suspend him – he puts other people in danger and pollutes your brand with such a palpably acrid taste.” Despite this history, and in direct reference to the user complaint, Julian Chandra, the vice-president for growth at LBRY, which owns both Odysee and created the blockchain-based video-sharing protocol that underpins it, wrote: “Eric Striker is a white supremacist, but that has nothing to do with him being on Odysee. What matters is if he breaks rules.”
Chandra added: “Have a look at the title of the video: if it appears to be inciting hatred toward an ethnic group or whatever; the title should be scrubbed. But that doesn’t mean the video should be removed unless it does break community guidelines.” Chandra continued: “Also just being a white nationalist or nazi isn’t grounds for removal.
Are you nazi that makes videos about the superiority of the white race? That is NOT grounds for removal. “If you’re on the other hand, dehumanizing a race or doing things against our guidelines, that is grounds for removal,” he concluded. On the idea that white supremacist beliefs can be articulated without dehumanizing other groups, Hayden, the SPLC spokesperson, said: “White supremacy is inherently dehumanizing.” The Guardian’s review of channels linked to by the complainant revealed scores of extremist videos, some of which have been viewed thousands of times.
Variously they promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories – including versions of the “Great Replacement” narrative, claiming Jews were orchestrating the demographic replacement of white people through mass immigration. They also glorified Hitler and other Nazis, showed meetings and rallies held by extremist parties like National Justice and Nordic Resistance, promoted disinformation about Covid-19 vaccines, and featured titles like The Pure Evil of the Jews, Second American Civil War, Treblinka Wasn’t a Death Camp, and They Want You Dead, White Man.
Odysee and LBRY employees did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the apparent moderation guidance Chandra offered. A month before that email exchange, the SEC filed a complaint against Odysee’s owner, LBRY Inc, arguing that it had raised funds through issues of the LBC cryptocurrency, and in doing so had traded an unregistered security. Creators on the site can also earn the cryptocurrency by means such as including tips from viewers. Recent videos on Jordan’s livestreaming channels had earned the approximate equivalent of $5 per stream.
Although Chandra, the LBRY vice-president, sent his guidance in error to the original complainant, he warned others against sharing the underlying reasons for moderation decisions. “Please note also, we don’t need to provide our judgements to the people that complain. It’s none of their business how we act in response,” Chandra wrote.

Well I hope the two (governments and hate campaigners) don't ruin it for everyone else enjoying the platform.

That's the Guardian talking complete bollocks as usual. The far-right don't pose a significant threat in the UK. There have only been two deaths in the last 70 years due to far-right extremism: Jo Cox and Makram Ali (Finsbury Park mosque attack), compared to many more due Islamic extremism and the IRA. Radical left-wing groups such as BLM and extreme trans activists pose a similar threat to the far-right, yet no one whines about them. There's loads of hate on Twitter about killing terfs (trans exclusionary feminists) and whites which is tolerated, yet people get kicked off all the time just for saying things like trans women are men.
