I´m not a stranger to Youtube´s madness when it comes to censorship, SJW madness and their 1984-like hive mind mentality, because I´ve been using Youtube since the very start pretty much. Even so, for the last two years, Youtube has become the real-life version of George Orwell´s 1984 book…And it feels like the final nail was slammed into Youtube´s coffin the very same moment that they launched Youtube Heroes (aka “Youtube´s thought police” system). Nevertheless, even though everything that I have just stated, despite all the anger, the rants and the huge backlash against Youtube by the Youtube community itself. Youtube simply continues to push themselves into create even further madness on their own platform. Well, if you don´t know what I´m talking about, then I take it that you haven´t heard about Censored Gaming and their recent struggle with Youtube´s “nudity” and “sexual content” policy?

Yes, that´s right, Censored Gaming “might” have their Youtube channel killed off (“Reporting on important news isn’t the same as PORN”, I agree to 100%!):

“Censored Gaming is at big risk of being unfairly shut down. Reporting on important news isn’t the same as PORN @TeamYouTube” – Censored Gaming, 22:06 – 5 nov. 2016 via Twitter

I´m not surprised to hear this though, because since Censored Gaming is considered to be a very politically incorrect Youtube channel (due to the nature of their content). Well, let´s just say that I bet that quite a few “Youtube Heroes” have slammed the Youtube report button like crazy in-order to make Youtube pull the plug on Censored Gaming´s Youtube channel (if you get three strikes on your Youtube page, then you´re done for…). Nevertheless, I truly hope that CG won´t be force off Youtube for good, as I enjoy their content and everything that they put out there. Furthermore, I believe that CG does a really important job when it comes to informing Gamers about censorship in the world of games (most people have no idea about half of the stuff that CG covers).

That´s also why I think that it´s beyond crazy that CG would violate Youtube´s policy when it comes to “pornography“, “nudity” and “sexual” content. Because, how are you even supposed to cover news or do documentary-like videos on the matter of censorship in games if you´re not allowed to show nudity and sex? (which is a huge part of censorship in games). I mean, that´s like telling someone who works on a WWII video that he or she isn´t allowed to include Adolf Hitler, Nazi flags nor any Nazi soldiers…It just wouldn´t make any sense at all. Then again, I think that we now have reached the point in time where we have surpassed George Orwell´s 1984 book by mile long steps (just look at Sweden, do I need to say anything more? Because not even South Park or Monty Python could top the madness that exists in Sweden at this very moment). However, like I´ve said in the past, if Youtube is in this terrible censorship and anti free speech state at this very moment. Then I don´t even want to know what state Youtube will be in one, two or three years henceforth (thoughts about South Park´s own PC-principal come to mind…).

So I guess that it´s about time for Censored Gaming (and us) to look for new home? Because it´s really annoying to have to worry about strikes on Youtube simply because “some” people get “triggered” and “offended” by everything and nothing. Not to mention the fact that it´s pretty darn hard to be a creative video creator when you constantly have to limit yourself in-order to please Youtube and special snowflakes all over the world (it´s either that, or to be forced into censoring your own content, or being shut down for good on Youtube…).

And with that said, what´s your thoughts on this matter? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section down below!
