Summary

Censorship BACKFIRES On Far Left AGAIN, But They STILL Demand More. A left wing activists reporter was suspended on Twitter for posting an image of a "right wing" personality. This is something we see over and over.The people calling for these new social media censorship rules are the ones who keep hearing "dog whistles" and calling them out. But context is irrelevant to a robot or someone not familiar with our culture so like clockwork these same activists get banned for talking about it.Meanwhile those who are truly vile will just change how they speak and stop posting certain images meaning.When the far left social justice types demand censorship of these people in all likelihood it will be THEM getting censored. While conservatives are more likely to get banned in most cases we often see the same activists who demand social media censorship hit with their own rulesAnd even though it KEEPS Happening they don't learn.

0:00.0	The other day, a left-wing activist reporter was suspended on Twitter for posting an image of a
0:05.0	controversial right-wing figure holding a Confederate flag. The goal was to show the person was,
0:09.6	and what they were standing behind. Unfortunately, that's now apparently against the rules.
0:14.0	And it's a very similar story to something we heard from the Southern Poverty Law Center
0:17.1	at Erlews Month. One of their reporters was covering white nationalism,
0:20.8	posted some images which contained a symbol associated with white nationalism,
0:24.8	and got locked out of their account as well. There are many people on the left calling for censorship.
0:29.2	The Russia Gators are saying we have to restrict Russian influence. We then see anti-war
0:33.7	media, math media, get suspended. We hear people saying that fake news must be stopped,
0:38.8	and then alternate democracy now get deranged in Google, and then you have those on the left
0:43.3	saying we must ban hate speech, and it results in reporters and activists getting suspended.
0:49.2	What's interesting is that the Southern Poverty Law Center, which is impacted by these rules,
0:53.7	is a part of a group called Change the Terms, which wants these platforms to be more proactive in
0:58.7	banning people. According to fairness and accuracy in reporting, the left frequently does call
1:04.8	it censorship. Unfortunately, it is a minority position among the left to actually challenge these
1:09.9	ideas, and most mainstream individuals and organizations support the idea. Today, let's take a look at
1:15.8	what happened with this latest censorship, and we'll go through just how bad it's getting,
1:20.3	and how it's impacting even political campaigns. But before we get started, make sure you follow
1:25.0	me over on mines at mines.com slash Tim Cast. I'm hoping to break 100,000 subscribers, I need your
1:30.3	help to do it, but more importantly, I want to make sure you can follow me somewhere that probably
1:35.5	won't censor me. These big tech monopolies are very sincerious, and that's quite literally what
1:40.1	we're going to be talking about today. So yeah, follow me on mines. If you want to support this video,
