Ehy Google, what about the anti-vaxers, fake-moon-landing, qanon channels, and similar shit?
Hey Google, fuck off.
where are our noble free speech warriors though?
Sucking on boots
Is this like when we banned the Chinese electric cars because we dont feel like competing anymore?
More like when we forced the sale of TikTok to Steven Mnuchin and Larry Ellison.
Or women athletes because they were better at certain sports
I’m not surprised, but those videos were pretty fucking funny
Do Prager U and Ben Shapio next
hahaha fat chance
Youtube supporting zionist violence? Shocked.
I am shocked. SHOCKED I say.
......not that shocked actually.
Every American company is loyal to the empire. If not by gleeful obedience then at least by threat of court orders and political pressure. I guess in Google's case it's that kind of gleeful obedience.
Okay but link to the vids?
That was bloody neat. And I say that as someone who normally hates rap.
I listened to it all the way through.
Although the music isn’t my usual thing, whoever made that is very clever. There’s so much small detail going on there. Brilliant sense of humour. And very talented.
I’d love to his reaction after watching one.
That means the videos were effective; I don't agree with Youtube's decision but it's their business I guess.
Now I want to watch the videos
Dailymotiom is french so I had hoped that anyone wanting to watch them could just go there. However, I don't see most of the videos in question there.
Looks like the videos exist on this Russian video hosting site: https://m.vkvideo.ru/?q=Lego+trump&action=search
Explosive Media, known in Persian as Akhbar Enfejari, has denied it is backed by the Iranian government and its videos have reached millions of viewers across a range of social media platforms.
Speaking to the BBC, the head of Explosive Media, who referred to himself as "Mr Explosive", said his team consisted of fewer than 10 people and that the Iranian government was a "customer" of his company.
NGL, confusing article. Not even sure why it would matter?
If Iranian state actors are producing videos of this quality, it may become an existential threat to US Meme Hegemony.
