YouTube Is Censoring Conservatives | Joe Rogan & Nick Di Paolo

Like, relatively. But that's why people come to it now. You can't get the truth from mainstream media. Well, I was trying to explain to a friend who was talking about doing a podcast deal with a network. And I was like, stop. You can't do that. This is the one thing that you can have where it can be mainstream and it's free of everything. Free of any influence. And you're going to let a bunch of pencil pushers and button pressers, they're going to tell you what you can and can't say, which direction you can and can't go. You know, they're going to try to influence you. But isn't Google doing that? No. What do you mean? With conservatives like shutting down Dennis Prager. It's like a fucking... What do you mean? Google... As far as... Well, you two was on by Google. I'm talking about a company. Right. Okay. I'm talking about a company, you going into business with them. Yeah, you can. Where you're a podcast, you're free and independent. Right. And it's probably the only thing in the world where you can be completely free and independent and still reach millions of people. It really is the only thing in the world. But how... What does Google do? Well, what I'm saying, Google owns YouTube. Right. Right? And people like Dennis Prager, a religious right guy, his show gets shut down on YouTube. What do you mean it's shut down? It's shut down. He's suing. He's suing fucking Google. I didn't know about this. Yeah. I know he does those shows with Karola, but I didn't know he was shut down. Karola, I used to listen to him when I lived in LA. He's a conservative, religious, Jewish guy. I've listened to him a hundred times. Yeah. Well, they considered it hate speech. I mean, that's when we get into dangerous territory. Wait a minute. I pull up what happened to him because I'm completely ignorant about this. This is the first time I'm hearing about this. Oh, this is going to go to the Supreme Court. Really? I think so. So they took his page down. They said you can't have a page on YouTube anymore. Yeah. They shut his show down. Do you remember what it was about? Not specifically, but I know it was labeled hate. And if you listen to this guy for 10 minutes, he's the most congenial, fair-minded, you know, but he's a, you know, a religious guy. Do you know Douglas Marius? Do you know Douglas Marius? He's actually a- Who is it? He's an intellectual from England who wrote a book about immigrants in Europe called The Strange Death. I think it's called Islam and the Strange Death of Europe. And he's basically talking about how people from these countries that have emigrated into Europe are changing the culture, changing the culture. And there's all sorts of, you know, crimes and things that are happening that didn't exist before. And people are developing these communities of like-minded people that didn't exist before. Right. No go zones. And he's saying that this is, you know, this is fundamentally dangerous. But he's saying it from a perspective of understanding the actual facts involved and talking about the situation and talking about how these are people that don't respect homosexuals. They want to throw them off roofs and they have these opinions about people. They have these opinions about people that are extremely antiquated and not aligned with European values in the modern Western world. He and Sam Harris had a conversation and that conversation got flagged on YouTube. It got flagged. Someone put it up in their, you know, you make like a little watch list. What is it called? What is it called? The list? You could, when you put it on YouTube on your channel where you could, a playlist. So he puts it on his playlist and he gets a community guidelines strike against him for putting up this conversation between two intellectuals. So I have this conversation with this lady at YouTube and I said, well, why would you do that? Why does that get, she goes, well, it's hate speech. I go, it's hate speech. I mean, you're talking about two intellectuals having a discussion about a real thing that's happening right now in Europe and you're saying hate speech. If you listen to the podcast, there's no slurs used, just facts or just talking about. Well, Sam would preg. But this is, this was the way she said it because it's hate speech. I'm like, you had, you said that so easily. Yes. You've never seen this. That's a lot of power. But it's also a lot of irresponsible power. I know. Or irresponsible use of power. But, but, but my point is they're cracking down on people who lean right, whether it's a leader. Yes. You know what I mean? That's 100% true. Yeah. And that's a big fucking problem. Hate speech. We're going to let Google decide, what's the name of the company? Alphabet. They're going to decide what, what, I brought that up on, I brought that up on Tough Crowd years ago about when you disagree with a liberal or whatever you're arguing with, they always go, oh, you're a hater. They would keep saying that. That's what it turned into. If you just disagreed, you're a hater. Now it's you're a bigot or a racist. If you didn't agree with Obama's policies, you're a bigot or a racist. And that shit works. That's been working for the left for years. But now that the social media, Google, controls almost all the information you want, you and I hear every day. I mean, that's why it's so dangerous. So look up, yeah, Prager is the first example that comes to mind. That guy, excuse me. Yeah, because he's, you know, Christian or whatever. He's Jewish. Yeah, he's Jewish. But, you know. Looking it up, unless what I just read was wrong, they weren't, I'm from YouTube at least, they weren't deleted. They were restricted. Put it like, meaning like, they shut down the show. That the adult thing, like you have to have an account that says you're 18 or older or something like that. And they were fighting and having a lawsuit against that saying that what they have in their videos shouldn't be behind that wall, whatever that is. They also then... But this is my point, you have to go to YouTube to get the story. Hold on a second. No, I'm on their website. I went to a couple different websites to see it, but they were also like yesterday, they had ads blacklisted from Spotify. So they had ads that were, I guess, initially approved and now they have been disapproved and they haven't really explained to them why. Dennis Prager's ads? Well, he's so into it. So, but his page is still up. You know Carolan, right? Yeah. I believe so. I will. But the YouTube page is still up. His show's not up. His show is shut down. I'll check that. They might have taken it down by now. This is kind of from a couple months ago. Yeah. Yeah, they shut him down. So if you go to the Dennis Prager YouTube channel, it doesn't exist? I'll check it right now. So the idea that they would make that 18 plus because it's conservative, that's hilarious. Well, this is up. It's up. This is his channel, bro. Prager you. Yeah, that's small. He's got a million subscribers. A million nine hundred and forty nine thousand subscribers. They shut his show down. So they brought it back up? Is that what you're saying? Maybe. After he threatened a lawsuit. They got a video up from an hour ago. Spotify bans Prager from advertising. Okay, then Google Prager lawsuit. That's what it was about. It's about them being restricted. Yeah, I am angry because we're not getting the full story here. Well, I mean, we're just finding out that it's up right now. It's, he's, he's suing him. Yeah. No, I believe you. My point being is these big tech, big tech companies, a crush and conservative. Well, when the most part. Right. Yes. And here's a good way to look at it. If you're going after a guy like Dennis Prager, who again is most congenial guy, never swears, very, very mild mannered, very cool and calm and whether you agree with him or disagree with him. Right. It's not the way to go about something like this. If you disagree with someone is not to shut them down. No, just to have a debate. Exactly. Yeah. And that's not happening. Well, you know, you saw the Google memo. You saw what happened with that guy when he provided all this information about one of the reasons why women don't get into tech and they labeled him as being a misogynist and a woman hater and define. Like, no, he's giving you scientific studies that show that women have different interests. Is that Lawrence Summers you're talking about? There's been a few since. Lawrence Summers was actually the president of Harvard and he was given a speech and, and that's all he said. He brought up the numbers as far as males going into science and math. He didn't say women aren't good at it and he got fucking canned from Harvard. Yeah. Yeah, you can't have anything that's... That's fascism. Yeah. If it disagrees with the orthodoxy, they'll come down on you. Even if it's factual like James DeMore and you could clearly back it up. You could look at the actual numbers. Not only that, that James DeMore guy put a page and a half in there on strategies for encouraging women to get into tech. I mean, if he was a real misogynist... He's the Goggle Memo guy. That was what started off because all these intellectuals came to his side. They go, look, why are we doing all this research if you guys completely ignore it every time it comes up? Right. Like, you're pretending that this research is not valid. This research is, it's, it's scientific information that shows that certain types of people are more interested in different things. We've known that forever. That's why boy toys and girl toys are different. Because boys and girls like different shit.
