    A man is on trial this week for giving migrants water and shelter at Arizona’s deadliest desert crossing, where hundreds have died of thirst. He faces a 20 year sentence. It would be the first time a humanitarian worker on the border was sent to prison.

    It's going to get so much worse now. has publicly stated that racist and homophobic abuse doesn't violate their anti-bullying policies. Crowder and his allies are going to be emboldened. I genuinely can't imagine what LGBT employees at YouTube are doing right now.

    Kind of seems to me like YouTube is using "freedom of speech" to protect a profit model that would otherwise force them to regularly confront the racism, sexism, and extremism that has been rejuvenated all throughout the world due to their unchecked algorithm.

    Which is it? Are YouTube and Twitter for "free speech for everyone," or are they for a two-tiered system that rewards particularly skilled and famous harassers of minorities and protected classes with immunity, and discards the rest?

    The inherent contradiction shared by YouTube and Twitter on harassment: - They stand for true egalitarianism; freedom of expression for everyone. - Smalltime troll accounts harassing users get banned. Users famous enough to turn that harassment toward YouTube get to stay.

    A federal judge dismissed conspiracy to riot charges against 3 neo-Nazis seen assaulting protesters, journalists, & a cop. Me & found that a group which filed an amicus brief on behalf of the Nazis has deep ties to white nationalist groups.

    YouTube will pretend to give a fuck about Pride month while simultaneously platforming, promoting and directing profits to vile homophobes. YouTube is the perfect demonstration of how you should never trust the lofty liberal platitudes of big tech.

    YouTube is possibly doing more to radicalize people into the bigoted far right than any other platform and that will forever be its legacy

    . finds all the bullies LGBT people tried to escape from in high school and gives them the weapons and platform they need to keep tormenting us in adulthood. It's a platform for monsters masquerading as an ally to the LGBT people they target.

    If you're a prominent LGBT creator on , you have an incredible opportunity to raise hell for a company that's been exploiting you for a while now. It's fucking Pride month. Use your power. Other queer creators are counting on you.

    I don’t know what to say. has decided not to punish Crowder, after he spent two years harassing me for being gay and Latino. I don't know what to say.
