When far-left ANTIFA terrorists chanted death threats outside of a Cernovich event, journalists captured the moment and uploaded it to YouTube. YouTube promptly banned the video, and issued a Community Guidelines strike against Cernovich.
YouTube has a three strike and you're out policy, and thus their decision put his entire channel at risk. Moreover, accounts with a strike against them are banned from live streaming for 90 days.
YouTube reversed its decision with an apology. While this is welcome, YouTube has yet to explain how this mistake happened, and what they will do to prevent it in the future.
Moreover, YouTube still refuses to explain how Cernovich's YouTube channel went from gaining 1,700 subscribers a day to losing subscribers overnight, according to analytics firm Social Blade.
As you can see in the above graph, Cernovich was gaining thousands of subscribers a day, and then the very next day began losing subscribers, despite not posting any content that would have alienated his following.
Moreover, Cernovich's YouTube channel has 66,000 subscribers, and yet his live streams rarely reach more than 100 live viewers. Channels with far fewer subscribers have considerably more live viewers, and indeed, Cernovich had thousands of live viewers at a time before the aforementioned drop in subscribers. Indeed, he went from having 1,800 live viewers to 150 the very next day.
The SPLC, which inspired mass shooter Floyd Lee Corkins, has been given the task of censoring YouTube, and they have singled out Cernovich for unfair and dishonest treatment.
Cernovich has been reposting his video on free-speech friendly video sharing site Bitchute, and you can subscribe here.
Good to see the video reinstated, you should also post on D.tube!!!
Should we post on Dlive and Dtube at the same time?
