Stefan Molyneux is banned from Youtube

Surprised it took this long to happen to him. I would have figured he and AJ would have been banned around the same time.
 
Some may state some of the age old deceptions about "start your own platform" in response to threads like this. Before we all saw the tactics used against people trying to start fresh platforms, we figured that was an easy solution to overcome all of the censorship. Unfortunately, it does not work as we had hoped. The owner of GAB has been trying to warn everyone about this in recent days.

Companies like VISA camp out at new platforms and wait for "hate speech" or any improper behavior, so that they can report you to whichever credit card and financial vendors they can find that the platform uses in order to intimidate them into dropping support for the platform. They are doing this so that the lines of information all stay channeled down the same street, which they control, until the point of having no more free form of communication.

They aren't just doing this to GAB, they have been targeting anyone that does not conform to pre-approved speech and thought patterns, and it looks like Stephen and 1000's of non-conforming reddit pages have just gone down today. It looks like they are doing a massive nuke on all of these avenues of variance in free thought and will not stop until either they are stopped from doing this or they are successful in controlling all speech through platform bullying and manipulation.
 
I'm a Molyneux critic, but this is very, very bad. And just the beginning. And libertarian refrains about private companies jut aren't going to cut it..
 
They banned Naked Ape, a right leaning YouTuber who hasn't posted a video in TWO YEARS. All this after the Reddit purges. This is going to get so much worse. The more time goes on, the more it looks plausible that Trump's election might have been the worse outcome for the right.

Same i had being a bit of a Molyneux critic on some of his videos over the past years on some issues but banning is not a good idea. Whatever happened to free speech? i dont care if YouTube is a platform if He didnt break any YT rules or whatever and was banned just for his opinion then with his ban i dont agree with nor did i agree with the banning of Alex Jones either.

Let alone banning the flat earth users on YT either. This is getting very dangerous for free speech.
 
YT fail. :P OTOH, this just shows us that there's a huge market for a better platform that doesn't censor people for no good reason. :)

What do you think should happen? It is despicable. These platforms are basically segregationists saying you can't eat there. But it shouldn't be against the law.

Since he was making money from the channel, he could make an argument that YT is interfering with one of his income streams. (he'd have to prove it, but there you go)

I don't think there's a libertarian solution to this. Or if there is, it's so far off and unfeasible there might as well not be.

The future belongs to hierarchical megacorps. The only question is who they serve.

Keep clinging to that principle until they come and march you to the gulags. Actually, it's too late now to change that inevitable outcome. Conservatives were destroying the left online in 2016. After all the shadow and outright bans the left was able to catch up in their reach, and now they've far surpassed us. These platforms are basically the phone company telling you that you can't have phone service because you don't support the party, or the gas company telling you that you're going to freeze to death this winter because you voted for Donald Trump. They're coming for Tucker Carlson next. If he isn't fired Fox will be removed from the cable networks. Big business is every bit as dangerous to liberty as big government, but you'll never understand until it's too late.

"I have consistently promulgated the non-aggression principle and called for reason and evidence as the methodology by which we can resolve social disputes and differences..."

I think we have have the answer to how this happened. You brought honesty and reason to a battle of deception and emotion. Kind of like bringing a calculator to a gun fight.

The problem is people here will say "private company" but it's a little different when said company owns a huge share of the means of communication over the internet and is abusing that privilege by trying to undermine our entire way of life. It's like playing chess where you perfectly follow the rules, but your opponent moves their pieces whichever way they want!

Steven got ghosted just like Lauren Southern, for daring to have an opinion other than "Orange man bad."
