I'll be honest, watching Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn at the United Nations, and more importantly at Google Ideas rattled me. Previously religious groups have tried to shut down criticism via the 'infrastructure censorship' route- but none seem to have been given such a warm welcome as Sarkeesian and Quinn.

The threat of violence from Muslims when you criticize Islam is very tangibly real, but many seem to have the instinctive reaction although the threats of violence are real, it is an act of cowardice to give into such threats.  The response when Sarkeesian and Quinn were at the UN seemed to be markedly different.  There seemed to be no real concern that they were effectively asking for worldwide

censorship of their critics. Similarly there seemed to be no real concern that they were asking that people who they said were 'harassers' should be presumed guilty.

This latter act is incredible as it's basically an inversion of almost every first world justice system.


I sincerely hope that Google will not implement their requests for censorship.


If they do, you can be all but guaranteed that my channel will be first blood.

I sincerely hope that it doesn't end this way......surviving being a vocally opponent to Islamic censorship and real threats of violence, only to be cut down by a professional victim feminist claiming that even the most modest criticism is actually harassment that is as harmful to women as physical assault.

" The report also argues that “cyber touch is recognized as equally as harmful as physical touch,” suggesting that online harassment might be just as lethal as domestic violence or sexual abuse."




Time will tell.


Many thanks for your support!

Can't someone go to the UN to provide some counter arguments?

From what I've heard Google Ideas is nothing more than a PR stunt, and nobody at Google takes them seriously - so hopefully there is no need to be alarmed. Yet. UN, on the other hand, is a much more serious issue, it seems.

You should ensure all of your videos are backed up and neatly organized in case your channel gets shut down. That way you can start from scratch if necessary with no loss of content. Also in the event of a shutdown, have in the back of your mind an idea for a video that stands a chance at leveraging the Streisand Effect. I imagine the message would have to be short, simple, and of highly focused scope on the reasons why censorship is detrimental and google should refrain from it. You'd need to convince Google that it should refrain from 'picking sides' (to the ends of censorship) on this issue, even though there are some issues (porn, scams, threats) that it unapologetically sides against and does not allow.

The nominal policy as it is today looks in your favor, at lest until violence is redefined. Just always focus the basis of your criticism on the arguments, not the demographic, just like you've been doing. Be prepared to defend yourself if they falsely accuse the basis of your criticisms, which seems to be where the fine line is drawn. <a href="https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2801939" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2801939</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/yt/policyandsafety/communityguidelines.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/yt/policyandsafety/communityguidelines.html</a>#communityguidelines-line-crossing

Everything that needs to be said about this is dismissed as "conspiracy theory", but the agenda is so obvious and eminent that there's no other explanation than it being part of a mastermind geopolipolitical strategy eerily reminiscent of Soviet KGB tactics, and burning with Marxism. Keep exposing the facts, and leave the stigma of being a "conspiracy theorist" to the "nut jobs". Good work!

My partner has previously suffered domestic abuse and rape. She wanted to pass on her thanks for standing up to these ridiculous perma-victims who belittle the real impact of real-life abuse by comparing it to mean words online and portraying women as fragile and incapable, needing protection through the most draconian methods of silencing and censorship. For my part I certainly hope that the initial favourable and credulous reception they have been given is short lived.

Amazing, that Dalhouse U speaker directly admits sexual discrimination! Oh... its against men, never-mind. Watching this video was chocking. It can't help the feeling that that insanity is getting worse.

The whole U.N. thing is just insane. If Google or anybody shuts you down T.F. or any other person speaking out against feminist ideology, then I will cancel any accounts that I have on Google and YouTube or whatever organization it might be that shut us down and refuse to use any of their services until they reverse their decision, and that includes search engines, as difficult as that will be considering Google's monopoly. If Google censors us then we must start our own site separate from and out of reach of Google.

This looks like a challenge, don't you think ? These harlots seem to be asking for more attention, and with nothing of value to say, they have to create some market value to the fact that they are mocked on a regular basis.

A. Vidovic

I would not worry about the UN either, their credibility is down the drain these days.

Hey Phil, I'm glad you're starting to realize that globalized fascism is a real thing and is effectively threatening us all.

Freedom of speech is non-negotiable, the correlation between scientific and social advance and freedom to challenge the views of authorities - or the authorities themselves, appears very strong. I suspect that you could post the creative commons stuff and other science stuff without issue, maybe even the anti-creationism stuff (they don't seem to be as far along on the band wagon), but you may need to post the anti-feminism stuff on a home webpage and merely note you've 'got more railing for reason' on...', that wouldn't be as effective in publicity terms as posting on youtube, but would be better than nothing. I wonder however if they don't want you stomping on them at least a little, Sarkessian appears to be a professional troll, baiting people to respond so she can paint herself as the victim, if that's her schtick then she will need to keep 'being bullied' in order to keep 'being a victim', that twitter ban a while back had ''bait' written all over it as the post you'd made was anodyne.

If your channel does get targeted by this rubbish (I doubt Google would be *that* dumb, but you never know), you can count on the vocal support of fellow content creators. I've debunked, criticised and questioned many things on my channel, but have thankfully not yet had any major issues like this from doing so. The biggest thing that's been tried is a paid Dislike campaign which was laughable. I agree with Andrew that freedom of speech is non-negotiable, and we must all fight to keep it that way.

Dave Jones! Ah I love it when youtube worlds collide.
