Google, the owners of YouTube, has removed a channel on the platform belonging to a pro-Iran group producing Lego-themed videos mocking Donald Trump.
“Upon review, we’ve terminated the channel for violating our Spam, deceptive practices and scams policies,” a YouTube spokesperson told Middle East Eye.
“YouTube doesn’t allow spam, scams, or other deceptive practices that take advantage of the YouTube community.”
Explosive Media’s content largely consists of animations ridiculing the US war effort against Iran and poking fun at the US president.
Smooth pivot. Really stuck the landing.
Just wanted to cut through the bullshit and remind myself that when they said I think “all sides bad and ignore geopolitical context”, they were definitely also referring to among the most reprehensible authoritarian regimes on Earth that they support.
Like it’s some ridiculous, hand-wavey stance to think the US and North Korea (and obviously Iran, but that doesn’t fully illustrate how depraved their worldview is) are simultaneously bad.
Continue to ignore geopolitical context. Not like the US killed 1/5th of the north Korean population or anything. Not like everything you think you know about the DPRK comes from south Korea (which is US occupied). Stay ignorant and mad lib
