Aside for YouTube "tut tut" what has Markson said that disqualifies her? I ask in full faith, as I don't know who she is.

But why does YT get to tut tut anyone? The only basic reason for it is that you fundamentally agree with YT's worldview and are OK with their dominance.

I'd ask for you to turn the tables around, YT censoring PoV you agree with. But we both know that is a ridiculous question; introspection by the hegemon usually is.

because it is a platform they own. I'm not arguing whether that is good or bad but if you run a site you are free to moderate it however you wish. Until YT, FB etc. are classified as public utilities or similar, you have no rights whatsoever to say what you want on someone else's platform.


Lol, I asked rhetorically. I know the legality behind it.

It's a pickle to to balance all the higher order principles involved.
