Original YouTube, before Google, was one of many Video streaming websites – living alongside competitors such as Dailymotion, Vimeo… And Google video. Those guys, yes, would’ve deserved this sort of compassion.
Google’s YouTube is an evil entity that bruteforced itself into a de facto monopoly, routinely changes the rules for content creators that have built the platform and often depend on it for their living, allows a predatory system of copyright trolls to thrive at the expense of the creators, frequently allows creators to be robbed of their channel and income by arbitrary strikes while being completely deaf to requests for help, leverages Google’s power to crush potential competitors, influence public opinion, stifle free speech… I could go on. Sympathy for such an entity, quite frankly, for me, is a form of Stockholm syndrome.
All against Plebbit, their admins are evil, a lot of power mods are human garbage, and one shouldn’t contribute to that cesspool.
But I saw about a billion of anti-trump comments. /r/NonCredibleDiplomacy, /r/Ukraine, /r/UkrainianWarVideoReport. If yours were removed as you say, it’s mods, sure as fuck not admins. Mods, rather often, just remove anything they fancy, especially anything that vaguely resembles controversy or a potential headache. No clue if you were wildly out of context or stuff either.
