How does YouTube removing a video from their platform in any way constitute "election interference?" Are you saying that a private company such as YouTube, can't enforce their terms of service, just because the subject involved is running for President?
... and are you seriously trying to draw attention to a political bias on the part of YouTube, by linking an interview conducted by James O'Keefe (Project Veritas), which had been posted on The Gateway Pundit?
If those candidates wish to use the platform, then they should follow the rules of the platform just like everyone else. That is not an infringement on First Amendment rights. Google/YouTube is not the government. The "election interference" argument is just a crutch, for those people who don't want to abide by the rules of the platform, which the forum administrator has every right to establish and enforce.So you’re for candidates not being able to get their message out on social media platforms to American voters? Being owned by Google an information search engine somehow makes them private?
He questions big pharma and it’s deemed misinformation? Aren’t the democrats all for free speech or does this fall under believe what you’re told to believe? Always thought the left was pro questioning big banks, big pharma and big corporations….that theory seems to be disinformation to their voters. Google/YouTube is not the government but they play a role in American voters being able to have access to all information. Having selective information is what China and North Korea do.If those candidates wish to use the platform, then they should follow the rules of the platform just like everyone else.

The forum administrator has the right to establish rules for their forum and enforce them. YouTube is not the only forum where a candidate can "get their message out." If a candidate thinks YouTube's rules are unfair? Then they should try another platform. Truth Social will allow anything ... so use that instead. This is not a violation of anyone's First Amendment rights. PERIOD.He questions big pharma and it’s deemed misinformation?

So it’s pick and choose which information is deemed correct and the pulled. And once you jumped the shark to a free message board it showed you don’t agree with it at least comes across as you tapping out. Last time I checked, Google is a publicly traded company so they can’t hide behind the “privately traded company” excuse.The forum administrator has the right to establish rules for their forum and enforce them.

Yes, it's their forum. If you don't like their rules? Use another platform.So it’s pick and choose which information is deemed correct and the pulled.
It's not an excuse. The First Amendment only applies to government censorship. Google is not the government.Last time I checked, Google is a publicly traded company so they can’t hide behind the “privately traded company” excuse.
so by “it’s their forum” they can transform an election based on their views of which information is credible. Because “it’s their forum”. No different than North Korea news, because it’s “their forum”on news getting to their people.Yes, it's their forum. If you don't like their rules? Use another platform.
Except that YouTube isn’t the only source of information available in the US.so by “it’s their forum” they can transform election a based on their views of which information is credible. Because “it’s their forum”. No different than North Korea news, because it’s “their forum”on news getting to their people.
How do they "transform an election" exactly? LOL.so by “it’s their forum” they can transform election a based on their views of which information is credible.
It's entirely different than North Korea. YouTube is not state-run. An adult should not need for that to be explained.No different than North Korea news, because it’s “their forum”on news getting to their people.
That’s right, I’ve stated Google (publicly traded) owns YouTube but is adopting the model of we tell you what is true.How do they "transform an election" exactly? LOL.

It doesn't matter if they are publicly traded. They are not run by the government.That’s right, I’ve stated Google (publicly traded) owns YouTube but is adopting the model of we tell you what is true.
You transform an election by quieting opposition. If you have nothing to fear, let them speak.
