Well that's what you say but that's not true, to be marked as domonetisatised also lowers your view counts since the video stops showing up, it also might not show for subscribers. Youtube is also able to monetize your video, but since people have reported seeing adds on demonetized videos, you just don't get the money.

> That's unlikely due to a anti-conservative bias though.

Can you point me out to left leaning content that gets demonetized constantly so I could compare with the right leaning one. I've not seen this happen in people I've subscribed and would like to see if this claim has any merit.

I understand these to be separate issues that get lumped together because Google changed the way their recommendation engine worked to de-emphasise the importance of subscriptions around the same time as advertisers started to care about where their ads played. Happy to be proved wrong, but I had a quick look around on the internet and couldn't find a reasonable source to contradict me.

This might be right, it might be wrong, but it isn't censorship.

I don't watch much 'left leaning' content, so I can't readily provide an example, but a lot of true crime and history channels are constantly having videos demonetised for touching on non-advertiser friendly themes. I know this because they constantly complain about it!

> but a lot of true crime and history channels

Thanks this was what I was looking for.

This is to respond that youtube can monetize or demonetize as it pleases. Since it contradicts itself by demonetize for you and not for them.

I don’t know this person’s political stance, but I can’t help but be reminded of this story. A woman shot YouTube staff when her channel was demonetized. I think people who view social media as targeting right wing views are seeing reality very narrowly. Politics don’t appear to be involved with this case.

Is there a public notification of what videos are monetized? I'm unaware of one, and my quick check shows the poster gets one and some proprietary services that can supposedly check.

Without a public way to check, you would he unable to distinguish actual bias from which side complains more.

> actual bias from which side complains more.

It's complains sometimes side vs never complained side, in my pool of channels.

This is a false equivalence. For all the flaws of Antifa and woke culture, they aren't the ones advocating violent insurrection against democratic government in the United States and the murder of Republican law makers for being traitors to the cause. Not as satire or comment, but literally.

I would contend that it is not surprising that one of these sides is encountering more problems with posting guidelines than the other.

> violent insurrection against democratic government

Is right leaning content for insurrection? Sorry I've missed that train. The "right/libertarian" I see censored is much tamer than that, Joe Rogan, Sargon of Akkad, Viva Frey, Academic Agent, Thunderf00t, 1791.

Bernie's campaign staff were calling for killing wealthy people. Does that count?

Did they organise a militia, obtain weapons and ammunition, agree to meet at the Capitol and actually storm the Capitol, chant "kill him with his own gun" when they got hold of one police officer, and for real beat another police officer to death with a fire extinguisher?

Shit talking like that in private, in a bar in a heavily editorialised recording is one thing. I've been a student and Ive heard people brag about all kinds of stuff. Actually following through in the capitol with a violent, literally murderous insurrection is on a completely different level and it's frankly exasperating to me that you can't or won't see that.

You're relying on a highly edited video clip from Project Veritas, really? The constantly-cutting-clip is of some low level field organiser drunkenly mouthing off in a bar. Even the constant cutting of the video couldn't hide the fact that the guy was punctuating his musings with laughter.
