That Bernstein fellow (the one who wrote the article on Soph) is quite an interesting character himself.

I believe he was the first one to accuse Sam Hyde and Million Dollar Extreme of racism and membership of the alt-right, and managed to get the show pulled from Adult Swim for political content. This was back in 2016.

From about September 2018, he began to focus his attention on Pewdiepie, and wrote several articles accusing him of being racist for trying to get more subscribers than an Indian channel and for laughing in a VR game when a player called Shekels was unexpectedly killed off mid-sentence. Bernstein was not particularly successful at proving either claim, but it seems he has since given up on attacking the big fish and has been looking for smaller fry like his latest target, Soph.

In my opinion, this Bernstein fellow seems to have based his entire career on calling people out for suspected or imagined political incorrectness.

YouTube does not have to give Nazi's a platform. It isn't censorship. If somebody steps into your house and starts squawking hateful antagonistic shit you dont like, you can ask them to leave. Censorship is what happens when the government tells you, you cant say a thing. YouTube is in no way obligated to give you a platform - weather you are on the left or right side of an issue. Not all right leaning people are white nationalist, racist, misogynists but all white nationalist, racist, misogynists are all right leaning.

And Nazi's or people who side with them should never be given an easy platform to speak. We saw what happened the last time they were given a big voice.

This kid was a parrot for her father, and her fathers bullshit and used to to make other angry lost kids more angry. It was obvious manipulation of younger minds and I'm glad she got shut down. I wouldn't be surprised if her videos helped start a school shooting or two.

Despicable.

National Socialism is long gone. The alt-right are crypto communists, loo kat Richard SPencer for reference. They are nothing but ZIonist shills pushing the neocon agenda. Anyone questioning neocons, zionism or Israel are now censored because they are considered so called nazis who are long gone, and only a small niche. Hey but even if they do exist on a small platform, communism, maoism, bolshevism is fine.

...and your final point is what?

Nazi's are far from gone, kiddo. I hear their rhetoric more right now than at any other time in my life.

This is the age of the internet - everybody has a voice someplace. But even in this information age if you talk wacky crazy things enough you will work yourself into an echo chamber and shut off normal sane debate. - like the girl I was talking about above did.

Bad ideas get shut down by the masses. Directors get fired, former comedians have to leave congress, powerful men get taken down by popular opinion. Hell, some Libertarians would tell you that is the way it should be.

Here is my final point: If You Talk Hate, You Will Get Back Hate. Some would call that Karma. I call it Justice.

Are you going to fallow me all over SAIDIT and debate me in every sub?

I mean if you are that is fine. Just would like a little heads up.

Not a kid. God bless. National Socialsits are long gone. The alleged nazis now are nothing like the nazis of the third reich. There's a good video I posted about Nazism and who the real nazis are. It's everybody, because the term is so loosely used it becomes non meaning. There are some neo-nazis in the US but they are not really the threat. Would you say Trump is a nazi, because many people call him one, but he's far from a nazi.

Crazy, whacky. You use these words all the time. Stop using them if you want people to understand your point of view.

Hate is fine, as long as it does not threaten with violence. Hate can mean anything to anyone, which is why we should never, ever censor so called hate. We are a free society and have the right to free speech, certain people udner the guise of hate speech are using this to ban anything who questions the status quo. God bless.
