Peace talks between Russia, Ukraine and the US were set for this week.
Not in Geneva. Not in Vienna. In Abu Dhabi.
The venue is the story. Europe's biggest war in 80 years is being negotiated in the Gulf, and Europe isn't the host.
@TeamYouTube Three asks on behalf of small channels:
1) Name the policy and the video before terminating.
2) Give a human-reviewed appeal with a real explanation.
3) Apply the same standards regardless of channel size.
Fair and equitable shouldn't be a premium feature.
Asking @YouTube and @TeamYouTube again: as the 30-day channel cleanup experiment expands in phases, please include The Invisible Order. Removed Oct 8, weeks before the test existed, so I had no chance to fix anything. I'll delete whatever you flag. @Dexerto@DeepHumor
@TeamYouTube Small channels deserve the same due process as big ones. When a channel is terminated, tell the creator which policy and which video, and have a person review the appeal. Transparency shouldn't depend on subscriber count. #YouTube#Creators
@TeamYouTube My channel was terminated Oct 8. Vague policy named, no video identified, appeal denied. Big channels have partner managers to call. Small creators get a form letter. I'm asking for the same transparency and the same process for every channel, whatever its size.
I love nothing more than to see third worlders pushing other third worlders around in wheelchairs at American airports; truly diversity is our greatest strength 🤡🤡🤡
A slur doesn't stop being a slur because teenagers started using it. Today's @nytimes "On Language" column treats the antisemitic slur "goyslop" as a fun linguistic curiosity rather than what it is: a term rooted in white supremacist conspiracy theories.
Normalizing this kind of language is dangerous. "Goyslop" is not just edgy slang. It combines "goy," the Hebrew word that colloquially refers to non-Jews, with "slop" to promote a conspiracy theory that Jewish people deliberately poison non-Jews with cheap food to keep them docile. It was coined and spread by antisemites and white supremacists. No amount of teenage adoption changes that origin.
Such terms spread negative stereotypes and conspiracy theories. Their normalization is exactly what the bigots who coined them aspire to. A bit more on this here: https://t.co/eHiz3qmayF
