Good. Not interested in having youtube play debate moderator or censor. People have a right to be wrong.

Yeah... no.

We do not need to embolden things like this when it has led to clear societal issues. You may have a right to be wrong, you shouldn't have the right to spread those views as if they're right.

YouTube constantly moderates and censors. For example they routinely remove video evidence of war crimes:

Doesn't that just prove that youtube still needs to be less censorial?

Which I don't support...

Feel like that was abundantly clear from the content of the post.

As long as the people who upload these can be held liable for inciting violence (if and when it occurs), I see nothing wrong with that.
