 Well, this doesn't come as a surprise. You guys have known for the longest time that YouTube and major social media platforms like Facebook, like Twitter have been starting to censor people that they disagree with. Now, there's two camps over here. You have Camp A, the states from a libertarian camp, but it's a private company and this private company can do whatever they like. And I'm, I'm more or less on that side, but however, you also have the camp was saying, wait a second. This doesn't even behave like a private company anymore. You have government involvement, it's publicly traded companies. And for the, for the most part, it's not a free market. It's not a free market. You have governing bodies that are deciding how these private corporations behave. It's one thing if your private corporation, specifically not even a publicly traded company where you have 100% control over what your company does, no shareholders, no government regulations, etc. In this case, if we're looking at YouTube, which is Google, if we're looking at Twitter, these are publicly traded companies that are intertwined with government regulation, government policy senators, etc. And people make the case that this is more or less like a public utility company, such as the telephone. Recently, what has happened is YouTube is trying to silence the Mises institution. So yesterday, YouTube removed the Mises Institute video. The decision apparently lasts for all of eternity and cannot be appealed to an actual human. And it comes with a friendly warning because it's the first time this is just a warning. If this happens again, your channel will get a strike and you won't be able to do things like upload posts or livestream for one whole week. The video in question is a video from Tom Woods. If you guys aren't familiar with Tom Woods, well, fuck, have you been hiding underneath a rock? Go check out Tom's channel. His podcast is amazing. The video is Tom Woods titled The COVID Cult with more than 1.5 million views was recorded at a live event in Texas two weeks ago. It offered challenges to the official narrative surrounding the coronavirus, particularly with respect to the mask mandates. Woods talk featured several charts showing rises in COVID cases across multiple cities and countries, not long after imposing the mask rule, demonstrating how such rules apparently have little effect on slowing transmissions of the virus. Now, I'm not here to debate whether you agree with COVID or not, whether you agree with a mask or not. That's not the question. The question is very simple. We need to live in a society that promotes discourse, that promotes communication, that promotes different view points. We are at a point where we're seeing a precipice with technocrats, technology companies are the government. There's, you know, we have an illusionary appearance over here that, oh, we have YouTube and Google and Twitter. These, these are, no, they're not. No, they're not. We're at a point now, guys, where freedom of speech is being challenged in every fucking corner. So this also happened yesterday, guys. YouTube also bans one American news as Democratic senators demand for more censorship. YouTube has suspended the pro president Trump, one American news network from uploading and posting new video material to YouTube for one week. The decision was handed down at the time when a cluster of cable and other news TV outlets, including OANN News Max are broadcasting and mobilizing Americans about the truth of the Trump administration fight to serve a second term by overturning the fraud of the 2020 presidential election. So YouTube said this on the issue for its November 24th banning of the OANN was for violating our COVID misinformation policies according to YouTube spokesperson Ivy Cho. In quotation, guys, in August 2020. When YouTube updated its policy regarding the misinformation and manipulating the media, the platform notably refused to prohibit users from posting false content on the outcome of the election or the manner in which states the local officials can't vote. As a result, the platform is now home to an onslaught of videos aiming to undermine the legitimacy of the election. For example, one YouTube video claiming evidence of voter fraud. What we're seeing here, guys, is like I mentioned earlier, we're having a technocratic elitist coupled with the government. Nothing new. You know, wow, absolute, absolute power corrupts. Absolutely all. This has been since the beginning of fucking time. Nothing new. And what we're seeing is if you don't play by our rules, we were censoring you. If you don't think as we think we will censor you. So what we're seeing today, we have a huge group of people who are saying we have to stop YouTube. We have to stop Twitter. We have to stop Google from censoring us. Now I like to look at nature when it comes to stuff like this in nature. If we look at apex predators, if we look at how ecology evolves, we always see that a superior technology comes out, whether that is a mammal, whether that is a virus, whether that is a bacteria. And this superior apex, you can call it predator. I like to call evolutionary design is superior to the old technologies of that ecology and it overtakes it. And over time, it becomes dominant until a new form of technology appears. Now, when we have a group of people trying to fight YouTube and Google saying you can't censor us, it's a great fight. However, it's the wrong fight in my mind. The proper way to spend your energy and your time. Remember, time is the most important commodity and resource we have. We can't buy more time. We can always make more money. Instead of us trying to fight YouTube and fight Google and they can do what they want. I don't give a flying fuck. What we need to do is create better technologies. This is why I'm so bullish on the future of Web three and real decentralization and real monetization of social networks is we create better technology. So you you create a system, a free market where you let the market participants decide what we're going to have in the future is like, Hey, and, you know, maybe we're a couple of years away from now. Hey, do I want to spend my time on YouTube at one point? It was great. I love, you know, when YouTube was a wild wild west with like conspiracy and cat videos and like you can do, say what you want, do what you want. Like that was like the golden time when we go into the future, there's going to be a time where you're going to have this decision. Do I want to spend my time on YouTube where I'm where I'm a fear of saying certain things to demonetize me or even yet they won't even let me upload videos or do I want to go on this new platform where I can make good money where I'm not censored where it's more or less a laissez-faire free market. And so the actual technology being built is the solution. It's not lobbying. It's not screaming at Google, YouTube and Twitter. It's a very notion of let's take this energy and let's build something better because listen, these are just recent examples with me sees institution with one America, it's going to continue. And regardless of how loud you scream, regardless of how much you don't like what they're doing, it's not going to change the status quo. What you can do right now, whether you are a creator, whether a user is start helping other types of companies who offer better alternatives within the free market to create better solutions. And that's how I see us overcoming what's happening today. It's not, let's get more regulation. It's not, hey, let's knock on the shareholders door. No, it's create better technologies to supersede the old technologies. So I'll leave it at that, guys, YouTube continuing its massacre of freedom of speech. Yay, nothing new. Actually, a couple of things from you guys. Leave a comment below this video. Let me know your thoughts about this and I will see you later on tonight. Peace out.
