Very shocked that @YouTube has completely removed the Channel of my Ron Paul Institute: no warning, no strikes, no evidence. Only explanation was "severe or repeated violations of our community guidelines." Channel is rarely used. The appeal was automatically rejected. Help?

The arbiters of deciding what is and isn’t mis/dis-information are busy crushing any dissent. Truth be damned. I mean facts be damned. Or something.
YouTube should only allow videos pre-approved by the government.
Crimes against orthodoxy.
YouTube has essentially become an arm of the Leftist government.
Facebook and other platforms have also.
If you don’t buy off on Heir Biden’s edicts, you have no voice.
They are...
This type of restriction is similar to prohibiting the use of Windows by certain classes of people.
Hmm microsoft probably trying to figure out how to implement that now.
Nothing shocking about Democrats opposing civil rights. It infringes on their exercise of total power.
Thanks for the Ping
Lets all use Rumble instead. Screw them.
more and more Big Government encroaches...like a silent worm.
YouTube recently announced they are banning all content that spreads vaccine misinformation.
And not just COVID vaccine....ALL vaccines. Don’t know if that’s what caused Ron Paul’s issue.
Managing harmful vaccine content on YouTube
We’re expanding our medical misinformation policies on YouTube with new guidelines on vaccines
Crafting policy around medical misinformation comes charged with inherent challenges and tradeoffs. Scientific understanding evolves as new research emerges, and firsthand, personal experience regularly plays a powerful role in online discourse. Vaccines in particular have been a source of fierce debate over the years, despite consistent guidance from health authorities about their effectiveness. Today, we’re expanding our medical misinformation policies on YouTube with new guidelines on currently administered vaccines that are approved and confirmed to be safe and effective by local health authorities and the WHO.
Since last year, we’ve removed over 130,000 videos for violating our COVID-19 vaccine policies.
Our Community Guidelines already prohibit certain types of medical misinformation. We’ve long removed content that promotes harmful remedies, such as saying drinking turpentine can cure diseases. At the onset of COVID-19, we built on these policies when the pandemic hit, and worked with experts to develop 10 new policies around COVID-19 and medical misinformation.
Throughout this work, we learned important lessons about how to design and enforce nuanced medical misinformation policies at scale. Working closely with health authorities, we looked to balance our commitment to an open platform with the need to remove egregious harmful content. We’ve steadily seen false claims about the coronavirus vaccines spill over into misinformation about vaccines in general, and we’re now at a point where it’s more important than ever to expand the work we started with COVID-19 to other vaccines.
Specifically, content that falsely alleges that approved vaccines are dangerous and cause chronic health effects, claims that vaccines do not reduce transmission or contraction of disease, or contains misinformation on the substances contained in vaccines will be removed. This would include content that falsely says that approved vaccines cause autism, cancer or infertility, or that substances in vaccines can track those who receive them. Our policies not only cover specific routine immunizations like for measles or Hepatitis B, but also apply to general statements about vaccines.

We should be at war with the media.
Our at least, our representatives.
No.
The media first.
Shut the media scum down and reboot for the first amendment.
The media controls the narrative.
History is written by the victors.
Right now, the Left controls history.
Every day, they gain a bit more ground...
I mean our representatives with the power should be at war with the media for us. Yes we can do some, but they represent us and wield far greater power to change their status to public utilities.
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell
