Help Prager U Fight YouTube Leftist Discrimination

Post by Victor Hafichuk »

Not that I can agree with everything Dennis Prager stands for, but I don't like seeing Youtube censoring the list of videos Prager U is publishing, most, if not all of which are sound reasoning and factual. You may wish to sign the petition.

If I'm mistaken on this, please tell me how; I'll listen.

Thank you Victor,

I signed the petition. Some of the videos they list as flagged by Google are still active today (in Canada of course). Perhaps it's one of those cat and mouse games they are playing with Goggle or the petition is already having an effect.

When I checked today, every one of the videos listed as banned are on YouTube. I don't know what gives - perhaps the petition worked. If so, I would expect a statement on the Prager site. As of this moment, there isn't one.

I noticed that You Tube blocked a recent video by PagerU called Born to Hate Jews:

https://www.prageru.com/courses/politic ... -hate-jews" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCQEmeG ... e=youtu.be" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The message You Tube gave was that it violated their hate speech policy. Interesting since the Google founders (Sergey Brin and Larry Page) are both Jews.

I sent some feedback to You Tube, under the link called "Send Feedback" below the blocked video. I really want to see this video to learn why they blocked it.

Hullo Michael,

I opened and watched the video and didn't notice any blocking? Maybe "they've" unblocked it - perhaps thanks to you? :)

Beryl.

Hi Beryl,

Yes, they unblocked the video here (Canada) too. The fellow in the video (Kasim) gives a great testimony. Glad to have watched it. It inspired me that some Muslims can use critical thinking to seek out the truth.

The You Tube comments were very interesting.

Perhaps many others complained and it was all too much for Google to justify blocking it.

It was the other way around, Michael. The Truth, Jesus Christ, gave this fellow critical thinking. The Lord opened Kasim's heart to receive the truth. A man can receive nothing except it is given to him from above.

Thank you for sharing - it was good to see!

Thank you Paul,

For correcting me on this. Yes, I see this now. Indeed I often give too much credit to men. This way of thinking has a way of creeping up on me.

It is interesting that this fellow Kasim still calls himself a Muslim today yet he is pro-Israel. It's quite amazing how the Lord works these things out and how it can be at odds with (my) human logic. Never the less, the Lord certainly knows what He is doing and told us as such:

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways," says Yahweh. Isaiah 55:8 WEB

Sincerely,
Michael
