YouTube is pulling my firearms content
Yep, that's right, they've removed all of my reloading and bullet casting videos.

Damn Google commies.

What's the reason? Just you?

Says I violated the terms on firearms and manufacturing firearms accessories.
It's bullshit because all I'm doing is casting bullets.
And working a progressive press.
They're not even instructional videos.

Youtube is going after gun channels quite aggressively these days. It's their platform and they can do what they want, but they are disgusting little pussies.

There are many “bullet casting” videos still there. Why are they picking on you?

I’ve been subscribed to your channel for probably as long as you’ve had it and have never once received a notification about it.

No, you do not have a First Amendment right vis a vis YouTube.

I've challenged my removals.
We'll see what they have to say.
I had original content flagged for copyright violation before.
I had to challenge that and won.
It's still bullshit.

One pistol review vid I watched there, the host said he was not allowed to show a mag being inserted yet, another vid was just fine loading a AR of some kind. Someone needs to grow up at the tube.

My YouTube channel is a mishmash of guns, motorcycles, and my birds. I just checked and at least “so far” they haven’t removed any of my gun content, which is reloading and shooting.

You're asking the kind of question that's been asked a million times. Remember when Twitter was owned by the leftists? They banned conservatives left and right. Yeah, it's censorship, but did they violate the 1st Amendment? You know the answer.

Put simply, the 1st only protects you from the government infringing on your right to speak, practice your religion or print something. Private entities? Their rules.

Yeah but they are taking the moral high ground. Of course you have to overlook every fourth thread of a girl modeling see through lengerie or somebody being killed in a car crash.

We dual-loaded to Rumble, but that channel never really took off at all.

I haven't checked, but I'm pretty sure none of my videos have been removed. Demonetized though.

I haven't uploaded anything to any youtube channels in a couple of years now.

I'm planning a relaunch onto X. Hopefully, by mid-summer.

Yeah, I don’t see much traction on Rumble but i do like their content vs influence philosophy.

How does X work for content creators?

You have to have a premium subscription, but then you can post long form video.

Hours worth at a time.

It's just like any other post, but you could boost it. You could also put your videos behind a subscription paywall if you've already qualified for the feature.
