Threatened by YouTube Censorship, I Go Into the T-Shirt Business

Kevin Barrett

By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor

What do you do when an internet oligarch destroys everything you’ve been working for, obliterates more than a decade of your hard work, and deprives you of the ability to make a living—all because that oligarch disapproves of your free political speech that is explicitly protected in all public places, including today’s digital town square, by the First Amendment?

Obviously that oligarch deserves to be executed for treason. The First Amendment is the heart of our Constitution, and traitors to the Bill of Rights are the worst treasonous scum imaginable.

But since I am a nonviolent person, and would never dream of prosecuting and executing a poor cuddly little internet oligarch, I have decided to forget about alternative journalism and instead open up a T-Shirt business. Below are just a few of the communications from YouTube that gave me this million-dollar idea, along with pictures of my latest merchandise.

How your content violated the policy
YouTubers share their opinions on a wide range of different topics. However, there’s a fine line between passionate debate and personal attacks. Content that contains targeted harassment including, but not limited to, stalking, threats, bullying, or intimidation is not allowed on YouTube. We remove content where the main aim is to maliciously attack another person or deliberately humiliate them. We also escalate cases to the appropriate authorities when warranted. If you’re not sure whether or not your content crosses the line, we ask that you not post it.

We review educational, documentary, artistic, and scientific content on a case-by-case basis. Limited exceptions are made for content with sufficient and appropriate context and where the purpose of posting is clear.

    Kevin, Just because you anger everybody including probably the good Lord you are not automatically promoted to martyrdom status. Your Moslem brothers disown you for exalting the sexy, rebellious Aghdam and even the Alex Jones crowd is tired of the Loose Change conspiracies. You would certainly do better if you could relook for The Truth ie Logos and perhaps Lord willing see Him again.

      “Exalting” Aghdam?! Good grief! Have you heard of something called “irony”?

      You’re welcome to call the Truth (al-haqq) “logos” if you like.
