The YouTube Ρurge Is In Full Swing: Ρress For Τruth's Dan Dicks Receives Strike And Is Censored
Then they came for the journalists and there was no one left to report on anything...
The great YouTube purge of 2018 is in full effect as the Press For Truth YouTube channel just received it's first community guidelines strike for a video that was posted over 5 years ago. This is rampant censorship on steroids and therefore we need to promote Steemit and DTube now more than ever!
In this video
Dan Dicks of Press For Truth goes over the recent strike on the PFT channel, what it means for PFT and more importantly what you can do about it!

note: we also have an issue of one of the steemit tech team heavily flagging posts he disagrees with (on the topic of vaccines):

when censorship happens to others on steemit you dont care but when it happens to you on youtube its a problem?
Maybe semantic issue of deleting videos or accounts vs flag but content remains?
maybe but they are both censorship according to the definition of censorship. if one is worse or better wasent part of the argument as far as i knew.
:D
If the content is not removed and is present unaltered and nobody can stop or prevent you from saying what you want WHERE you want, exactly how you were free to spam gay porn to force people to remove their flags, how can any of that be censorship? If there is no ability to alter or remove content exactly how do you think it's censorship? Is censorship a Grayed out Post with a button that is clearly visible that UNDOES any "censorship", always every single time? It's not maybe, its a definetly that you cannot censor something SIMPLY because you give your opinion of the content. The content always remains without any change.
It's not about worse or better, its about which one IS and which one cannot be. If youtube puts a warning on videos that have been rated very poor before showing the thumbnail OR the title that would NEVER be considered censorship, but accepting that would mean your double standard and baseless assertion (show us the definition of censorship and explain how and why it applies to steemit curation system) are up for debate, which would be a waste of time as you think what you did when you forced people with spamming gay porn (which you denied that it wasn't even porn, would your porn still be censored if the user had a button that he could click to uncensore it, if they wanted it, would you consider that censored still?) and which you claimed it wasn't even SPAM, and above all of that you believe that you were DEFENDING yourself by threathening people with, gay, censored sex cartoons? posting on all their posts, until they comply with your asinine demands, so save your breath because the stench you leave is atrocious, not only do you not have any integrity, your name is redundant because logic and reason are as abused as your grammar and spelling.

i have proven all you say as to be lies, your links to evidence only end up proving you wrong yet you keep repeting the same lies over and over as if someone is going to believe you.
I am done replying to you , have fun writing 50 million more books parroting the same lies over and over and filling my comment feed for a couple days like you do every time you see me talking to someone on steemit.
smfh
How was it Suppressive when you posted gay porn in spite of people Suppressing you? It's either Suppressive or it's not. You haven't proven all I say to be lies at all, you've only made a vacuous claim.
Here is some of your gay spam

Censored and Suppressed of course.
This is the post where you specifically said GAY PORN and detailed how you will "DEFEND" by threatening people to comply with your demands that they made you do.

#TIMOM #definitations
So then, am I Lying, or are you lying about me lying? It can't be both ways now can it? The point is that you have no sense of specificity and context, more than that why would I expect someone that reasons Threats as "they made me do it" to understand the subtle difference between Suppression and Curation.
How Suppressive is it really if people can say what they want where and when they want as much as it's humanly possible to say? Well, you, on the other hand, are an admitted self-censoring, but you also take humanly possible to mean spam or plagiarizing, tell me again how YOU made a parody of a parody. That one was hilarious.

When did this happen?
when did censorship happen on steemit?
its been going on from the beggining and is going on right now.
Is that why your spam is still "censored" on the blockchain, because of all the "censorship" steem has. All those gigabytes of content removed and altered.. O wait, that never happened.
Yes, tell me about all those removed posts and pictures, like this one:

I didn't hear him say that he didn't care nor was he acting as such, so your comment doesn't make sense to me. Maybe I'm missing something.
He has had people call him out on live chats about the censorship on this platform and he dodges the question and parrots the lie that there is no censorship but then adds a "but someone could if they had the power but thats not going to happen" when it is happening and been happening from the begining of the platform.
it wasent something he said on this post, i just found it funny that when other people try to get him to talk about the censorship on steemit (in live chat promiting steemit) he goes quiet but when he gets censored it suddenly becomes an issue. Im sure if his account was to get censored here on steemit he would all of a sudden start talking about it.
I use to love press for truth but the moment i realized dan was willing to flat out lie about steemit to make it sound better while he shilled for it so he could get some extra cash from the platform was the moment i realized i could no longer trust anything that comes from press for truth.
if they are willing to deniy that censorship happens on this platform for 5 bucks in upvotes then no clue what they are willing to say for a real chunk of money.
Thank you for taking the time to respond so clearly and thoroughly. I really appreciate that. I'm a complete noob here (today is my first day), but I just read through the post and comments @ https://steemit.com/steemit/@ura-soul/ah5k59ya regarding censorship and how it occurs here on Steemit. I found the whole censorship situation (via flagging if I understand correctly) to be quite surprising and discouraging. Glad to be here though as it still seems better than the situation on YouTube. Maybe...
its a great platform in my opinion but some things need to be fixed.
Welcome to steemit by the way. there are alot of great people on here, its better to not dive down the steemit censorship tunnel yet. lol its deep.
If enough anticensorship people arive from the comming migration maybe something can finally be done about it.
As of right now its just better to accept it for what it is. sjw controled censorship where the meanings of words can be changed at any moment to mean anything that supports their narritive.
sry bout the rant.
lol
Have a great evening and steem on!
:D
Thank you, and rant on! :D
At this time, I am really a content consumer, not a content producer, with the exception of comments. Nonetheless, the reason that I'm here on steemit is because of the growing censorship on YouTube, FB, etc.
And that is why I've dived into the censorship subject right away. If this is only going to be another platform to be censored, I don't want to waste my time and energy getting up to speed only to discover that it's as bad as, or worse than, YouTube/FB. I am still hopeful that that is not the case.
Hey, by the way, is that "L" from Death Note? Amazing anime.
Yeah its L, love that anime.
lol
You can make more from comments then posts alot of the time. (especially if you make a comment on a whales post thats stroking their ego*)
I originally came here from twexit back in 2016 for the same reasons as i was told this was a free speech and anti censorship platform.
I dont want to rag on the platform to bad to someone new, i do love this place and still believe it has great potential. i have made some good friends and had some great conversations and have made a little bit of money too. with that said.....
there is censorship on steemit if you define censorship as the "suppression of information". things can change with the forks and they are slowly getting better.
I wouldnt say its horrible, but its better then anything else i have come across yet. yours.org makes you pay to post and comment and after i posted about an exploit in their system they erased all my posts and comments and blocked my account. lol
As long as you dont learn about how the steemit system works or start calling out corruption or the whales on the platform you should be fine. lol
Its just the first day........
I would say stick around, you could have alot of fun. but i wouldnt stop looking for other platforms like i did. sooner or later someone will create a trully free speech anti-censorship platform and we will all flock there so quick they servers will crash for two weeks like sealion.club had happen before it got sold and censored. lol
If you find something better let me know but as of right now this shitstorm called steemit is the best i know of.
:D
Hey guys, can we talk about the censorship on a platform designed specifically to make censorship impossible? can we please have this conversation once more? All this censorship and not one altered post or comment, not one removed or altered byte.
It's censorship and suppressive even though in this post you proved that those things don't even exist:

Youtube will not changed its policy, I think.

Plz vote, follow and comment on my blog and post. Thank you.
Normally seeing a comment or post from an account with less reputation than mine and containing good content will get an upvote from me. The one penny from my reward will not take one far yet ones reputation can be helped with such an upvote.
Whining and begging for follows and upvotes normally has me passing the post or comment by. In this one case lets make an exception in hopes of changing your bad habits. 😎
It's on!
YEAH DAN ❗️What the hell is wrong with you telling the truth all the time ‼️ 😆🤣😂 LOL Yeah but don’t you guys think this makes them look weak and guilty ❓I see it as a victory for our side . They just confirmed to a ton of people that they indeed have something to hide . Good luck brother . 👏👍✌️♥️👊🏻
Sorry to hear this Dan. Meanwhile, the US supported terrorists are allowed a free pass to post as they like. The You Tube hypocrisy is on full display.

youtube must be taken down by the same people that built it up. Let's keep up the pressure and move to more secure platforms.
