BTV Update 03-20-23 (Patreon)

What's up BTV Tribe! 

Just wanted to write a quick note saying thank you to all of our BTV Tribe. We did a show the night before last and got a community standards strike while we were live. It's the first time we've seen this happen! The show is available here on Patreon (see last post) but the thumbnail is stuck on the Youtube screen and I'm not sure how to fix that so all you need to do is just click it and it will play! 

After doing some research we read that they only monitor "large channels" like AON, RT, and similar channels. We can't livestream for a week but it's kind of an honor that they consider us THAT much of a threat! lol. 

In 2018 they froze our subscriber count. I've told the story before but I'll give you a quick synopsis: Basically, we used to get 5k new subs a month, then we'd get 5k and lose a few hundred, then get 5K and lose 2500, then it got to the point where we'd get 5k and lose 6k giving us negative sub counts per month. Likewise, our videos can't be found in the search even when the title is searched exactly and sometimes even with the words "Beyond The Veil". 

Recently there have been other channels popping up calling themselves Beyond The Veil, one in particular that was uploading podcasts from various people interviewing the same people we used to interview so I've had to file multiple trademark claims. Youtube has taken down all of the channels but I think with the amount of Trademark claims we've had to file we probably got the attention of live people there. 

Not everyone on Youtube is part of the borg. One of our account reps worked hard for a week trying to figure out why our videos aren't showing up in the search, giving me updates every few days. It's really a sad time we live in! I even got a strike on one of my DJ sets where I was just playing music but my DJ intro starts out with "In the year 2020, the great tribulation began... the elite manufactured a pandemic (etc etc)". So, it's getting pretty bad!! 

With the recent Twitter files coming out, I think it's safe to say that they're using the same tactics that they used on Twitter: shadow banning, limiting exposure, and even removing interactions (comments, likes etc). It's all psychological warfare to make people feel like no one is listening to them, no one cares etc. etc. when in reality there are a lot of active and awake people out there! We usually have a few hundred people listening live but we suspect there are many more not showing up on Youtube because they're deflating the numbers on purpose (using the same tactics as revealed in the Twitter files). 

It doesn't make sense to me. If we're a channel with the same sub count for the last 5 years, we're put off in a little box, have no visibility in the search, why would they bother assigning a live person to monitor our live streams? Why would they even care if we're just speaking to a few hundred people? Unless, we're actually speaking to way more.... 

Anyway, my feelings are mixed. I'm kind of honored that they consider us such a threat but at the same time I'm a little urked because we JUST got back to doing shows and now we can't live stream for a week.  And our original method of pulling videos immediately after live streaming them and uploading them here seems to no longer be suitable. The most infuriating part of it all is that we were wrapping up the show! We would have been on air for maybe 10 or 15 minutes longer. But, lesson learned. 

Anyway, I'm kind of glad the video got pulled because we went into some deep information that really isn't meant for the general public so the way I see it, everything happens for a reason and as I listen to the show again I realize a lot of it isn't meant to be out there in public. So it all works out. 

We have teamed up with a very large website (one of the oldest out there) and we're going to start a daily show in the coming weeks. I am not sure if we're going to do Mon-Fri or Mon Wed Fri, or what, but all of the infrastructure is owned by us so no one can take anything down. I've also wanted to move away from this platform and start btvtribe dot com and move everything there. I think this was a push towards that direction. 

We have weekly shows going back to 2009 that we'd like to offer to our Patreons but it would be impossible to upload all of them here. Interviews with everyone from David Icke to Joe Rogan to Alfred Webre, Andy Basiago, Jordan Maxwell, Christopher Everard, you name it. Some info we've moved away from, some can be viewed in a completely new perspective now, and some are truly prophetic. 

Anyway, just wanted to write a quick thank you note and let you know what's going on in the background. We're also looking at Rumble and other platforms like that. It seems like Rumble has blown up over the last few years and it's becoming more of a viable resource than it was a few years ago. Bitchute has been slow as hell. I uploaded a video in 2021 and it's STILL processing lol. 

None of this makes sense to me. From a business perspective why would entities like YT want censorship like this? It's just breeding more competition and they are losing big parts of the market share. I guess a company gets to a point where it's so big that it's making billions per day and losing tens of millions is just a drop in the bucket so it turns into control.

At the end of the day, I don't believe the statistics. I don't believe 80% of the population lined up to get that "thing". It's asinine too! First it was a "free donut", then it was a "free beer", then it was "$100". 

There is an exercise I  learned in business, it's called "One Customer". It's flawed and the people who taught it to me moved away from it but in a nutshell you think about your business, your products, and compile traits about your "one customer". Who are they, what do they do, what do they enjoy, etc. etc. 

I feel like the establishment did that same exercise with the American public and used Homer Simpson as their "one customer".

"OK, Homer Simpson likes donuts, so let's offer them donuts. Homer likes beer, so let's offer them a free beer" etc.  It's quite insulting in my opinion. 

To wrap it up: I'd like to reminisce about the last strike we got on YT. I literally read their terms and conditions on air in a video. I did not add anything to it other than emphasizing some key points like "Making claims that any treatment or v____e is a guaranteed cure or prevention for c____19 is prohibited", They pulled that video!!! Then I tried to re-upload it to another channel and I got an automatic strike before it even finished uploading which means the AI took that video and put it in its prohibited video section!! Reading their TOS is considered "misinformation!" You can't make this stuff up!!!!!

I guess it's par for the course. One of my biggest gripes is how things keep changing. Windows updates for example. Your computer is running great, everything is working optimally, and then you get a Windows Update that completely kills your PC. I just read that the latest Windows Update is making SSD's run really slow and corrupting data. It's like: "if it ain't broken, don't fix it!!!"

But I guess it's just time to elevate and evolve. 

End of rant. Thank you for listening :) 

Love you

Chris
