Google, the owners of YouTube, has removed a channel on the platform belonging to a pro-Iran group producing Lego-themed videos mocking Donald Trump.
“Upon review, we’ve terminated the channel for violating our Spam, deceptive practices and scams policies,” a YouTube spokesperson told Middle East Eye.
“YouTube doesn’t allow spam, scams, or other deceptive practices that take advantage of the YouTube community.”
Explosive Media’s content largely consists of animations ridiculing the US war effort against Iran and poking fun at the US president.
Consistent ethics is when I declare all sides bad and ignore geopolitical context
The tankies is China are creating the first electrostate in human history and installing more renewables energy capacity than all of the lib states
It’s the tankies that are doing this (not big tech). I am smart
Quick username question: opinions on North Korea? Since we’re on the whole “shitty ethics” thing.
Sounds a lot like: “We broadly support North Korea, but that’s too embarrassing to say directly, so we’ll just shitpost about it like a neo-Nazi would when asked a direct question about their abhorrent beliefs – afraid of frightening away the normies by revealing their ‘power level’.”
It’s comforting to me that you have to carry the level of shame that your beliefs are unspeakable in spaces dominated by sane people – and are barely even speakable in this deranged hellhole for fear that your monstrous beliefs will surface above the irony poisoning and scare away the few people with functioning consciences who stumbled into this from the front page.
I support North Korea, cry about it halfwit
Boy, if you had a loaf of bread for every time you’ve called somebody a “halfwit”, you might have enough for Kim Jong Un to take and eat for himself while the working class starves.
Not my fault it applies to so many of you, and thank you for proving my point
Smooth pivot. Really stuck the landing.
Just wanted to cut through the bullshit and remind myself that when they said I think “all sides bad and ignore geopolitical context”, they were definitely also referring to among the most reprehensible authoritarian regimes on Earth that they support.
Like it’s some ridiculous, hand-wavey stance to think the US and North Korea (and obviously Iran, but that doesn’t fully illustrate how depraved their worldview is) are simultaneously bad.
Continue to ignore geopolitical context. Not like the US killed 1/5th of the north Korean population or anything. Not like everything you think you know about the DPRK comes from south Korea (which is US occupied). Stay ignorant and mad lib
