@misterclown99 @adamcurry Ice had to listen to it in bits. I get emotional and stop.

I spent last night and this morning liking and retweeting every sentiment and homage to @THErealDVORAK that comes up on my timeline in hopes that everyone else will fill their timeline with the love we all shared for JCD.

[Agent kesseljunkie @kesseljunkie]

I thought JCD would be with us for a bit longer. My heart breaks. God bless him and his family.

@AmyAcker
I'm rewatching POI for the umpteenth time. You're portrayal of Root was amazing. I'm midway through season 3 and Root is in her badass mode.
Thank you for helping bring this amazing show to us! Nolan was predicting the future.

Youtube needs to stop moderation with AI. Human beings should be making these decisions, not AI.
If a human being was involved in the process, this channel would not have been deleted. If a human WAS involved,they made a mistake.

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

After 16 years, my @YouTube channel (GrimmGreen) was terminated today with no real explanation.

I’ve built my content around harm reduction, helping adult smokers quit, and advocating for science-based policies.

This feels like a huge mistake. If you believe in THR, free speech, and the mission we’ve been on, please help me get YouTube’s attention.

@TeamYouTube I’m asking for a real human to review my case.

I’ve never promoted anything illegal. I’ve never targeted youth. I’ve worked tirelessly to be a responsible voice in the vaping and harm reduction space. But like many creators in this space, it seems I’ve been swept up in an overly aggressive moderation wave.

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

Such BS.

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

Ok @YouTubeCreators , @YouTube

I've spent 16 years on your platform, 410k subscribers, i've retroactively followed new rules. I've removed videos, i've blurred videos, Please HOW CAN I TALK TO A HUMAN ABOUT THIS?! Why doesn't @YouTube apply rules fairly? 🧵👇

[Vaping Bogan @TheVapingBogan]

@TeamYouTube your algorithm is at it again! Striking videos for breaching guidelines when there’s no links to regulated goods, no websites, no mention of where to purchase anything, and does not promote the purchase of any regulated goods. Please help fix this!

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@GrimmGreen @YouTube @TeamYouTube Fellow old dude here. The best part of my day is helping people in my demographic quit smoking with a vape. #vapeshopsarecritical #THR #olddude

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@GrimmGreen @YouTube Dude I’m angry

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@YouTube
I’ll cancel all of my google services and replace all the f my Google products if you don’t stop this nonsense. @GrimmGreen is an advocate for tobacco harm reduction. He doesn’t deserve this.

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

I had a feeling this was in the pipeline, but @YouTube just demonetized my channel without a clear reason, and I'm FED UP. This is beyond frustrating for creators. Here’s what happened: (🧵THREAD)

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

Here's the rules, and I follow them to a T. I would like @TeamYouTube to show me where I have facilitated access to the products I review. No links, no emails, no phone numbers, no QR Codes are ever provided.

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

Why was my monetization turned off? Who knows?

I do not promote sales. I do not include links or any other means for a viewer to acquire them.

I don't even mention the price of products in my videos

Creators deserve REAL ANSWERS @TeamYouTube

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

I've been on this platform for 16 years, 2K+ videos, 400+ live streams. This is my entire livelihood and I make it my business to know and follow the rules.

Today I get this 👇 from @YouTube

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

If you're a creator who's been unfairly demonetized, let’s make noise. Tag @TeamYouTube and demand answers. We deserve transparency with the rules applied evenly and fairly.

Why is this beer video allowed to be monetized? It's under the same rules

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

.@YouTube is unfairly penalizing harm reduction content while allowing misinformation and actual danger to thrive. My videos are already behind an age gate and only viewable to people 21+

Unlike these ads, that show up on public videos

[GrimmGreen @GrimmGreen]

This isn't just about me. YouTube is constantly demonetizing creators without proper explanation. They rely on bots, and appeals feel completely useless.

After 16 years on @YouTube and 101,463,986 views, I think i'm owed an actual human to talk to.

we deserve REAL ANSWERS

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@RedfearnMike one of my favorites

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@GrimmGreen Just nicotine and the very occasional Alcohol. Like on vacation.

[Gunther Wallen @gunnyman]

@GrimmGreen I’m proud of you. As a vaper and a harm reduction advocate I’ve always had trouble reconciling lighting anything on fire to consume it since quitting smoking.
