Ben Norton from Geopolitical Economy Report says YouTube demonetizes videos if he says the word “genocide” in a recent video he had to refer to it as “the g word” lol
I really hate this moronic censorship regime for the sake of advertising. It doesn’t even work either, it just makes everyone use made up words or phrases to avoid censorship. If I learned this as like a 13 year old in RuneScape, that I could type fvck, or whatever the fuck and get around that censorship, it kind of boggles the mind that advertisers are still employing this idea of targeting specifically words. Obviously some specific words (slurs mostly I guess) have specific spelling, usage and meaning derived from that usage so avoiding censorship to use them by default sort of waters it down. But if you want to speak about genocide and keep, I dunno, saying “I-word is doing a G-word to the P-word people!” to maximize the ads by avoiding censorship… I mean what are we even doing here…? [obviously not blaming creators for doing what they kinda gotta do. It’s on Google and the advertisers to stop the silliness]

they even deleted Pamplets … its was a great channel…
god fucking dammit, when did this happen
shit. fuck. does anyone have a copy of Sinofuturism?
I really hate that in tik tok. People inventing 1984 type words to describe death or suicide, like grow the fuck up.
it’s the ad men’s fault.
