I saw this video on liveleak today. Oh the irony of using Youtube as a platform for attacking Youtube.

You should all know by now that Soros is one of the largest shareholders in Alphabet Co. aka Google (owner of Youtube).

Essentially, this video outlines the capability, motive, and actions of Youtube to not just censor content that doesn't fit their globalist agenda, but they're also going out of their way to create propaganda and disseminate it also.

One of the channels they have been secretly supporting is The Young Turks, a butthurt group of whiney liberals who are perpetuating the inevitable civil war with their anti-conservative rhetoric.

The narrator in the video goes onto describe how certain channels will not only disable comments, but they will disable likes/dislikes as well. As you can see in the video, nearly all leftist propaganda videos have a resounding disparity between likes/dislikes (dislikes far outweighing likes).

If that's not appalling enough, check out this official endorsement that Youtube offers to leftist propaganda pushers like The Young Turks:


YouTube Creators for Change is a new initiative from YouTube dedicated to amplifying the voices of role models who are tackling difficult social issues with their channels. From combating hate speech, to countering xenophobia and extremism, to simply making the case for greater tolerance and empathy toward others, these creators are helping generate positive social change with their global fan bases.


But wait, there's more!

Not only are they endorsing anti-conservative content, they're also demonetizing videos that are critical of the leftist agenda. In particular, Louder with Crowder has seen any videos they make where they have criticized The Young Turks become demonetized. This means that even though conservative vloggers are still able to net some money in ad revenue for their videos, YouTube is exorcising its right to prevent people from earning revenue by censoring conservative content.

And yes, Youtube is a private company which means they can do this if they please. However, in a society driven by the free market, the people will ultimately decide the fate of the corporations that rely on them.

Despite the far reaching tentacles of TPTB, Youtube and the regressive left are failing fast.

What do you make of the Tories plan to censor the whole internet? With laws they are hoping to pass, they will decide what we see online and remove/regulate content they deem unsuitable for public viewing. This is dangerous territory and the Tories have planned this for years.

I say the cat's already out of the bag. They cannot censor the internet.

If they even manage to squeeze any regulation out of their globalist tube, rest assured there will be the internet v2.0 to replace it.

I hope so.

The thing that bothers me most about Theresa Mays proposal for censorship is that, so far, all I've seen her banging on about is stamping down on islamophobia and "hate speech" (whatever that deliberately vague label applies to?).

Not a single word against paedophiles.
Not a single word against terrorism.
Not a single word against scammers or criminals.

All the emphasis is on anything that may go against the current narrative. I think its just about stopping the truth being exposed by dissenting voices.
Years ago we could be kept ignorant and easily controlled by propaganda in newspapers and TV but the internet has been killing the mainstream view and beating them at their own game.

Its just an attack on freedom by authoritarian liars.

You'd think they cant but with the IP Bill being inexplicably passed last year, they already have the green light.

But you are correct about Net v2.0. Its called the dark net, accessible by TOR. If they get their way on breaking encryption too there may be no escape. But I do believe their encryption plans will never be allowed by the rest of the world.
The OP raises a good point. Censorship is becoming the norm. We have to be vigilant to protect our rights and to keep the Internet ours - open and free.

I'm far far from knowledgeable about the dark web/encryption but I thought that a lot of the stuff we can't generally access is not as sinister as we're lead to believe.
Don't a lot of banks/businesses etc use the private side to operate?

I believe google does manipulate stuff on youtube. Videos that clearly should be top trending video for the week aren't, because the people in it or the topic being discussed. Google does nothing about fake accounts boosting a channel subscribers or about comments made by bots.

I find it hilarious when Youtubes propaganda videos fail so spectacularly.

The reaction to these videos give me some faith in humanity.

TOR & Onion routers are a small step toward the Internet 2.0 but they're not quite there yet.

Seems to be failing pretty badly.
I've just been watching a few of the reaction videos on YouTube and they all seem to be calling it out as propaganda and are condemning it.
Some of them are saving the comments before they're deleted.
I wonder how long they'll stay up?
Or if people will start losing their channels altogether?

Before that I watched an hour or so of the House of Commons live but they've mostly been talking about the fire at Grenfell Tower.
Some discussions about recent terror attacks but not much regarding the internet.
Just the usual "we must do more" and "lessons will be learned".
I've heard that before somewhere.....

We should start our own video sharing platform and compete with Youtube.

We can call it, Conservatube, or Libertytube, or something. It doesn't have to have tube in it.

Yeah. How about Propavision?

I find it hilariously ironic that Google strives to MONOpolise everything while preaching diversity!!!

Wonder if there's any mirrors in their headquarters?

Since youtube comes built into my phone, I just want them to stop playing politics and trying to pick my views for me.

I normally just use it to listen to music or watch math and physics channels anyways because that's all it's good for now anyways...

With all of the losses on the left, they must either double down or just quit. Soros, and the rest of the censorship liars still think they have a chance at "their" reform of the intolerant West. Without a trace of credibility, they would lose whatever relevance they think they have left. Regardless, the mindless of the left constantly dismiss any opposition to their false narrative.....fools of their own demise. If these sheep accomplished their goals of regaining power and policy, we all would be screwed and they have not a fraction of a clue that this same $hit would be used to control them in lock step to the psyco lefts true agenda....no freedoms period.

I can´t understand why people think that YT(and all that other crap like "social"-media etc) could be so powerful that it could change peoples minds, opinions.

I mean, they could upload as many propaganda videos (pro-anti whatever) as they are able to produce. I wouldn´t even take notice of them being there. I wouldn´t see them, because if i go to youtube, then to watch special things, i don´t go to YT like:

Let´s look what our god TV gives us tonight...

Never ever reached me a "hatespeech" comment on Facebook. Simply, becasue there is no need for me to spread my data around the web, via Facebook and Co. For me, this platform is complete useless, because i am not an artist that could do some PR for himself there and i am not somebody that needs to play a role in the web, act like somebody that, in reality, is not me, with faked "holiday pictures" of holidays i never did, pictures with rented cars and acting if this were my cars, playing around with lots of money, maybe lend from the dealer neighbour for only that video... I hope you know what i mean. These platforms are for self-exposers that can´t stand their own real life but are to dumb to become something, because they waste their time on YT and "social media".

That are the people that are hit by this propaganda, some like to call them sheeple, i prefer the big grey and dumb consumer mass. In my eses, those people are lost anyway, YT and that crap can do anymore harm there.

And "normal" people don´t get hit by that propaganda stuff, because they don´t use these platforms or know how to use them, like thinking first, then clicking...

And on the other side, is is that good if give only former US criminals power over the web?
Couldn´t it be even good that a not former US criminal entered the game?

Even if it are criminals like Soros, it´s better than only former US criminals!

Although I don't believe there will be a civil war any time soon here in the States, it is disturbing how 'pushy' the left has become, especially when they don't get their way.

Unfortunately for them, they will have to learn the hard way.

The right is just as stubborn as the left - meaning there is NO WAY IN HELL - the other half of the country (including the generations to follow on the right) will be hoodwinked into believing whatever it is the left wants to push, no matter the tactics they use (education system, TV, internet, policy).

NEWSFLASH - THIS AIN'T HOLLYWOOD! Just because life imitates art in certain situations doesn't equate to the whole of society following suit.

Now, 1984 is a different story - that's simply implementation of certain technologies. What the left is trying to do is change people's minds via blatant hypocrisy, falsehoods and fakery. GOOD LUCK LEFTIES - YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT!!

Most of social media is nothing but ego stroking !

egobook , egotweet etc

they are nothing more than a crutch for the ego , it allows you to show of your material wealth , boast to your friends about how many celebs you know or share restaurants with etc , it also allows you to feed your pain and anger by aligning with others who are outraged at x, y, z social issue etc

the quicker you remove yourself from social media for this reason the better your life will be is my general opinion
I stopped facebook a while back after a friend passed away and someone left horrible comments on his memorial page and I was done!

life is good when you are living it for real and not through some imaginary life that you like to lead

the meme " how I see myself, how my girlfriends sees me , how my friends see me, how I really am" is a perfect analysis for social media , its all fake self aggrandising bull#

the world would be a better place without social media "FACTS" but humans are so addictive to anything and we love to stroke our egos so many are trapped living unconsciously in ego world and its a self repeating cycle that our species is trapped in now
