YouTube Caved To Mob Begging For Censorship
< < Go Back
Glenn Greenwald appeared on ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ to react to Vox writer Carlos Maza’s campaign to get conservative voice Steven Crowder banned from YouTube for making fun of his sexuality and attacking him repeatedly. YouTube did not ban Crowder’s show from its platform, however, the Google-owned company decided to demonetize his account. Carlson called Maza “a fascist posing as a victim.”
Greenwald said he has received anti-gay hate mail but it would never occur to him to “run to social media companies to beg for censorship.”
“I don’t want to live in a world where our discourse is policed and determined by benevolent overlords, who runs Silicon Valley companies, you know, who are always going to cater to the most powerful faction. That’s what happened here,” ‘The Intercept’ journalist told Carlson.
