Calling the stuff youtube is doing censorship is only going to end up with everyone dismissing you as a conspiracy theorist. There's a better conclusion to reach that isn't partisan.
Then what is this "Better conclusion"?
Because from where I'm standing, it looks like Patreon has arbitrary rulesets for each individual person. Censoring people on a whim, because they hold the power. And this seems to be inline with the similar actions YouTube has shown to it's creators within the past 6 months.
If arbitrarily banning people for reasons vague or unknown, and the only answer is to apologize for crossing their arbitrary political line, isn't censorship. Then what is it ike?
