Can we discuss the real elephant in the room amidst this censorship fiasco.
Did Youtubers seriously think this gravy train would last forever? 99% of them produce no merchandise and are entirely reliant on Google ad money. That effectively makes them Google employees as Google can fire them whenever they want. How did this many people think they could just coast on ad money this long? At least some of them are starting to wake up and realise they have to sell a fucking t-shirt or two.
These people are complaining that Google, a corporation that has a pseudo monopoly on information and whose motto was for the longest time "don't be evil" (if you have to fucking remind people, there is clearly a problem), a company they themselves have become dependant upon is finally throwing its weight behind "the fascist side".
It's not enough to just support another video hosting service, you have to stop using Youtube, produce merchandise for your fans to buy, and contribute to that video hosting service so it doesn't run out of content, not the fucking other way around. Youtubers produce no merchandise, contribute no money to Youtube making it reliant on ads to begin with and in some cases outright beg their fans to just give them money.
Anyway let's discuss this.
Pickle unrelated.

There's nothing to discuss. The only way to make money on youtube is to cater to a children's type of audience or cater to the lunatics that love to take in bullshit lies, such as flat earth theory. Google has youtubers by the balls. As long as Google makes money off the ads running on people's channels nothing will change. If everyone de-monetized their channels then Google would be forced to change. That's obviously never going to happen. The Google gods have won, unless youtubers unite and fight.
