Wow...I feel you, Sam. I'm carefully curating what I watch over there. And have paused comments on my own videos as the level of vitriol is growing from the trolls. If I'm not posting, I'm not moderating that bs. Thank you for the kind comment and I'll have to look up Mr. McBeth. Not familiar with him or his work. Cheers!
Ryan McBeth is retired U.S. Army NCO, E-8 or E-9, who is intensely concerned with the safety of our nation, especially on the Ukrainian front. Other military people understand what he is talking about. He gives good lessons for civilians about cyber-security, preparedness for challenges to civilized life such as internet failure or electrical grid failure; and takes a matter-of-fact view of geo-political relationships and military readiness. His content is not nearly as easy to read as yours, but valuable. Now you know.
Thanks, Sam. With F-Elon signalling how little support Ukraine will get, while we continue to support a full-on genocide in Gaza…I’m ready to spit bullets. Such a gang of bullies and bullshit artists. Hope they all choke on their Big Macs and spare the rest of us a lot of time and effort. Where is the Grim Reaper when you need him?
We must defeat these demons while they are enfleshed among us in this life,
for if the bodies they are living in die, they will jump to others. One more reason not to wish death upon anyone in particular. Your frustration is shared by me and many others and you have my sympathy. The rational middle must remain resolute and sane in our defense against fascism.
It would seem to me that someone is reporting your videos just to get you demonetized. I follow many such channels as you and yours is the tamest. I've even seen full frontal on several videos on YouTube. Full but crack and the tip of Mar happy many times. For some reason someone has it out for you.
It’s possible, but it’s also possible I’ve cussed out YouTube’s Creator “Support” team enough I’m on their radar. They are truly worst “support” I’ve ever experienced. And I’m not sure I’ve every actually dealth with a human in all my interactions. The bots are running Google. I hope their power supply gets pulled one day. If someone is reporting my videos…oh well. Nothing I can do about it. YouTube is broken and I’m just about done trying to post (much) there.
Definitely PG. What gets me is they don't actually tell you what's wrong, making it impossible for a creator acting in good faith to avoid a repeat of the problem.
Yeah. Substack was a genius move. All these "we're against censorship" sites giving lessons in Hypocrisy 101.
Even the guys doing evolution vids get hit for drawings available in any standard HS History book. It's so incredibly stupid.
Obviously, Clint, we support your content any way we can. It's up to you to determine the breaking point with YT. At some point the juice ain't worth the squeeze & high blood pressure + stress isn't anyone's idea of enhancing creativity. One day they'll realize they're killing the geese laying the golden eggs & won't be able to attract ANY decent posters.
Chin up! They WISH they could draw the attention you do. & best wishes for a fruitful, long lasting relationship with substack!
Mich appreciated, Tom. Hypocrisy 101 seems to be the only course Google is good at. Their need to everything to everybody means they aren't truly anything for anybody. Just the lowest common denominator in my book. I won't be sad when their reign as video platform supreme is over. Might be a minute, but few tech companies manage to stay true to what made them popular. And more and more creators are sick of their shit. But eternally grateful for all we've met via the platform. So it's a quandry...but I'm so glad Substack seems more than determined to stick to their guns about censorship. Common sense can make dollars and cents too.
Oh FFS. Could it be the 1/4” of butt crack that we see with the photo at 00:25? Having to second-guess every little thing is the social media equivalent of a crucifix and crown of thorns. The hypocrites at YT allow a creator to have the word “F*CK” (edited, just as I wrote it) but if I say that exact thing in a comment then the morality police shadow-ban my comment.
Those fucktards can suck my dick. I'm tired of their corporate "ad-friendly" bullshit. Clint's mad as hell and won't be ready to make nice for quite some time. In the meantime, I'm gonna channel the fire in my belly into making Substack even bigger and better. Both Collide Press and Queer Pioneers. :-)
Right now, it could not bother me less that your beautiful content is not on YouTu.be, as I am
scared to e'en so much as look at my homepage there because of what I might see. The
election of the most dangerous man to the United States' gover nment today has generated a
torrent of horrifying reports on it. I just will not subject myself to it at my age until it calms down
more. Your Substack channel, Mr. Collide, is one of my favorite refuges. Ryan McBeth came over
to Substack, and I will listen to his commentary here, and maybe Andrew Sullivan, but YouTube
is just a blank spot in my consciousness for the time being.
. Pax Vobiscum.

Look for yourself.
Remain calm.

They don't tell you cuz they don't know. They just seem to double down on dumb. Total asshats in my book. And the top of my shit list. :-p

Couldn't be more PG than that!
My thoughts exactly. But their "trained" bots and corporate tools think otherwise. I truly hate them today. :-)
