      Your claim literally makes no sense! You can find any opinion on YouTube. If YouTube only allows what they agree with that means you’re claiming they agree with both The Young Turks _and_ The Daily Wire; you’re suggesting they believe in racism _and_ anti-racism, since both can be found on their platform.

    The problem though is the trolls and misinformation. There is so much that it makes no sense to come to YouTube.

    YouTube is a private company, and this website is owned by Google/Alphabet. They can do whatever they want with it. There is no such thing as censorship on YT.

      Exactly. If you don’t follow the rules of, say, a restaurant, don’t be surprised when they refuse to serve you and throw you out.

      Please educate yourself. The Constitution doesn’t apply to private companies or private individuals. It only applies to the government.
