      I’m not alt right. I’m left wing. What isn’t how free speech works? I didn’t even say what the content was that was being removed. You’re making a lot of assumptions.

        That isn’t how free speech works.

        All it means is that the government can’t stop you from saying what you want. It doesn’t mean that you can say whatever you want with no repercussions.

        YouTube is not the government. It has terms and conditions that you agree to when you sign up. They have a right to delete your comments. You do not have the right to post whatever you want.

        Sorry, but that’s the truth of it. If you circumvent the built in filters, then users can still downvote / report you and creators can still delete your messages.

          Yeah, that’s fine. If they want to delete comments that are actually problematic, I don’t have a problem with that. But the system is actually broken. Nothing I’m saying is problematic. I’ll give you an example. What you just said now could easily be deleted. What I’m saying right now could easily be deleted. Anything I say could be deleted for no apparent reason when there’s nothing wrong with it at all. That’s what people aren’t understanding.
