Angel faced Youtuber, Evalion, kicked off the site after sharing racist views

[spinner981]

This... I think she is a complete moron, but she still has the right to say what she wants, free speech is free speech, and I fully support her right to make a total ass out of herself in front of thousands, if not millions of people.


That being said, Youtube is not a "public area", it is the property of Google, and as such with any private property, the owner can in fact determine what can and cannot be said and done on site... To put it simply, their house, their rules.

I just think that there should be a red flag going up when youtube starts banning unpopular opinions. This isn't just some forum, it's youtube, where everybody has been expressing their ideas for years, and many different ideas have been expressed polar opposite from each other. If youtube just starts banning people for expressing the 'wrong' ideas, ideas that youtube doesn't like, that's sort of taking unfair advantage of their effective monopoly on internet video sharing to effectively push their agenda, IF it gets to be that bad, which it isn't at right now.

If you're being disrespectful and rude then you're looking to be banned.

According to who? Anyone can call anything they want disrespectful and rude after all, and simply labeling somebody as disrespectful and rude doesn't somehow prove the fact that they therefore must be trying to get banned. That's just ridiculous.

I consider refugee support to be the polar opposite of hitler and extremism on the other wing.
I suggest if youtube is going to ban people who speak out against refugees, to also ban ones who speak out in support of refugees.

Californian companies seem to be becoming radical anti-conservative in every aspect raging a silent war to ban and block as many of us as humanly possible, my WoW account got banned for excessive use of "Mad Language" <- literally a blizzard quote.

Well, all im gonna say is yes, Hitler was a genius when it came to military, other than that, lets just say im glad hes dead.

Except that he wasn't. Germany had the most powerful military in Europe, and still lost. He fucked up by invading the Soviet Union. Had he not invaded the Soviet Union Germany would have had a much better chance at winning the war. They would still probably have lost, but the war would have been dragged out longer. The United States would have likely nuked Berlin or something.

Hitler and the Nazi's made the mistake of going to war on every other first-world country at the same time, I don't think anyone could win that, even today.

If there's one thing I learned from browsing MMO-Champion is that people need to stop: #1 believing #2 sharing dailymail stories. What a worthless piece of trash website.

Good. Racism is awful, and people shouldn't be able to get away with it.

Racism is awful. But within a nation with a freedom of ideas, simply holding racist views (or any views for that matter) isn't something that should be thought of as something someone 'shouldn't be able to get away with'.

[Stuffs]

Evalion is a total troll and a satirist. You'd have to be a moron not to be able to see that if you had ever stumbled upon a video. Not that I'm surprised she was kicked off YouTube... Even for a performance it was way extreme.

Yep. People scream poes law in these situations, but I think it says more about how grounded they are as individuals.

They're the same thing actually.

Wrong. Free speech isn't there to protect popular speech. There's a reason a Jew was defending Nazis in Skokie.

I hate Illinois Nazis.

I guarantee the majority of people who sub to her are teenagers that don't know shit about shit and are just looking for their place, following unpopular trends and trying to be different and edgy. Some of them were probably just curious about what she'd do next and wanted to follow her progress and some probably thought it was funny. I bet only a small percentage could argue their points for more than 30 seconds without being shutdown instantly. That's the way it usually goes with unbridled ignorance.

There is such as thing as right and wrong, though. Regardless of humanity deciding to say "People have the right to say what they want" That doesn't change the fact that... some people really shouldn't have that right at all.

Why are people crying about some attention whore being banned? Youtube is a company, and as a company they themselves have the right to ban whoever they like. There's no such thing as free speech on youtube. If she wants, she can make her own website.

[Independent voter]

40K subscribers? I believe it. Probably did the Hitler thing to get more subscribers but it backfired and she lost her gig.

[monkmastaeq]

I'm amazed tennisball isn't trying to say some man forced her to say those things.

The ghost of hitler was!!

[sockzz]

Usually when I don't like a YouTubers content I just stop watching their videos

[munkeyinorbit]

If they wish to ban people for extreme levels of racism that is their call, but they should do apply to every account equally. I don't see Black Hitler being banned, and he is at least that level of racist.

Can't ban black hitler because black people cannot be racist against whites.

[apples]

youtube is attacking free speech?

youtube has a consitution now?

and amendments?

and its own sovereign earthly territory?

[derpkitteh]

i support her right to say what she wants. youtube can have it's rules though, so she could set up her own blog or whatever.

a little shitty i think, youtube's kinda the go to place. but whatever.

Not even. Dude overruled his generals on multiple occasions because he thought he knew better, he was a bad leader in the militaristic sense as well as the other reasons.

he wasn't a genius in military. he had some ok ideas with animal rights and human experimentation, but definitely not a military genius.
