    Sounds like the emperor wants to create a boogie man out of the privately run media to be able to launch a State-run propaganda media entity without much blowback.

    Nah. He's leaning toward being a right-wing fascist strongman type.

    When it's all negative, there's nothing to filter.

    YouTube shadowbans? Lmao. Elaborate on how YouTube has been biased against Trump.

    YouTube is great for the consumer, for the most part. They've started to trend towards becoming more restrictive and censored, but that's because they want to be advertiser-friendly. One bad video, (i.e. Logan Paul's suicide forest video) scares away brands, and that threatens YouTube's advertiser revenue stream. They haven't filtered based off political views, but they have filtered off of politics in general, to be more "brand-friendly".

    They're not transparent enough about it though, and in the end they've fucked over creators to protect their own ass. But for the consumer, it's a great, steadily growing platform.

    There's a reason why I'm excited about TrueBlazerFan. The market is perfect, and the growth potential is exciting.

    Exactly. With all the blind mice that follow him, that's scary. Think about that....

    Trump is worried about google searches while there are hundreds of children detained and their parents were sent back, aka now orphans.

    President of the United States, ladies and gentleman

    Lmao. You really think that his support of Trump is what YouTube takes issue with?

    Clueless. Attribute false reasoning to fit your narrative while calling out others for doing the same. Cute. I see this much more from the right, and they're the ones who LOVE to complain about it.

    fuck infowars....it's trash anyway...Trump fans can find infowars on Jones homepage if they need it..there's also no beheading of journalists on youtube….or public suicides….I'm sure you can find both those on the internet somewhere as well as infowars ….and those are not worthy of a platform either.

    Pretty much all of Congress agrees with Trump that Google tweaks everything to the left in a big way, mostly by omitting results from the right or center view.

    The right and center see it as an attack on Free Speech, as Google search is the controller/censor of most people's access to information of any kind.

    The left is fine with it, because it's their only hope of winning elections now and they're too stupid to realize or care they will be next to be silenced.

    Come this November not 'all' Congress will agree with your statement. Then you might say all Congress agrees that Trump is full of shit.
