As long as centralized platform exists, rule the market, and decide what is and isn't an acceptable opinion, we're fucked. Get reliable P2P working in the browser and make servers obsolete, that's the way to go.

You said "we're fucked" You said You were fucked because youtube was banning Racism and violence. Right there, you allied yourself with Racist and violent people.

I made no leap - You Said It Right There. O_O Lookin' right at it. You got irritated enough that you could possibly not post racist and violent things On Youtube that you had to make a comment about it.

Stop Gas-lighting and arguing in bad faith. It's making you look silly.

    I never said you could not have your freedom of expression. you can go express your violence and racism in echo chambers and not on platforms with children.

    I've seen this before where People who defend Racism and Violence start to take away Targets. I call you Right leaning, you deny having opinions one way or another or neither. Ghosting the the issues as it were - More arguing in bad faith. You try to make me frustrated with Gas-lighting and if I get angry at your game you can go: Look at the angry liberal.

    Is it authoritarian to make sure that kids are not subjected to drugs and alcohol smoking and porn? Would you call that Authoritarian? Because I would call that letting Kids be kids as long as possible without subjecting them to Adult Material.

    YouTube is a place where kids go more than just Often. More kids than ever Use YouTube more than TV, there is no REAL age restrictions on YouTube.

    So you think the Platform Justin Beiber was discovered on should host graphic racism and violence? You think they should allow Porn as well? It is not Authoritarian to have that kind of information consumed at the right place. Adult content should be in adult places, that includes Racism and Violence.

    fun·da·men·tal·ist /ˌfəndəˈmen(t)ələst/

    noun 1. a person who believes in the strict, literal interpretation of scripture in a religion. "religious fundamentalists"

    Where have I said a word about scripture? I'm not going back to look, but I think I have said "God Bless" as a form of exasperation and well, Mister, that is about as much Fundamentalism as I think I have brought into any conversation today. So again - calling me a fundie or some insult that completely misses the mark just more Bad Faith arguing.

    And last because I tolerate and defend Blacks, Browns, women, want to protect children, gays, the poor and other minorities - But only really dislike Racists Bigots and child corrupting propaganda I am "Intolerant"

    Bad Faith, Bad Faith, Bad faith. You sir, are no gentleman, and you are very, very short of decent.
