It’s not the fucking job of YouTube to judge and punish. We have judges and the Criminal Code for that. We should not let us ruled by corporations!

Agree, there's actual rapists and incels on YouTube that need banning before an alleged rapist or SA.

and they might have tainted any jurors ifa case did come about.
