    I’ve tried to talk about the bad things Trump has done/said, in the comments sections on YouTube. If I don’t censor myself, by misspelling words or leaving out keywords, nobody can see my comment, even me. I have to walk around the issue and point to places where the information actually is, in order for anyone to see it. That results in most people thinking I’m wrong, but it’s either that, or do nothing. It could be the YouTube channel, but some of them are left leaning channels and it still happens

      exactly this lol. lots of people always come into this convo talking tough shit because they simply just don’t go to places where shadow banning happens. not every site is like lemmy/reddit with little to no algorithm manipulation based on keywords. it’s honestly embarrassing when people refuse to accept that and act all uppity.
