This video about Holocaust-denying politician BLOCKED in ALL OF EUROPE. Will it be blocked on Steemit?
For the last 12 hours, this video, about a Holocaust-denying politician in Illinois, has been BLOCKED in Europe and "limited" in the US on YouTube. It is now unblocked in Europe, but not ad-friendly in any country, so we're making no money on it, despite having taken time to research and produce the story.
This is why I came to Steemit and dTube.

Wait a minute... do you say YOUR video about telling how disgusting this is, was banned on YouTube??? That is hard to imagine for me. I am German, denying the holocaust here is illegal for good reasons! Why did they ban that video? Is it because Europeans shall not know about USA that they allow someone like this to candidate? So that we don't get a negative picture of the US? Or is it because we could come to the idea, that denying the holocaust isn't that bad??? I don't get it. May I please be allowed to think by myself???!
Yeah, it's bad.
Free speech shouldn't be made illegal.
I mainly do agree. But when we are talking about Germany and the holocaust it's not that easy. Denying the holocaust is an absolute no-go in my country. And I am absolutely okay that it is a no-go. I don't care much about the personal freedom of nazis, sorry. Because being a nazi is the opposite of being a freedom activist.
Only a Nazi would control what you could and could not say.
So you are calling me a nazi? I don't think that comparing the holocaust with banning the denial of holocaust stands in any healthy relation to one another.
I'm talking about the banning of opinions and speech, it doesn't matter what that speech is, it shouldn't be banned.
Denying the holocaust is a lie, not an opinion. Not banning it, means the risk that people may mistake it for an opinion. This could be infecting more people to believe it. As long as we got people on this planet who even believe that the earth is flat... The difference between these two things is that I haven't heard flat earthers wanting a dictatorship yet.
I'm not talking about holocaust denial, I'm talking about the banning of free speech, it's authoritarian and it goes against human rights. Everyone has the right to say whatever they want and believe whatever they want even if they're wrong.
I'm telling you, Steemit is the future of decentralised blockchain based media, that is censored by consensus, the 99% if you will; not the big media barons that block what they want when they want for their own psychologically manipulating ways! love it @davidpakman doing the dirty work no one else is willing to do because there is no profit involved in trying to right a wrong
Calling out this disgusting person is just too hot for YT.
I hope you get the rewards this deserve. Keep up the good work @davidpakman
