Anti-Defamation League joins YouTube to fight online hate


www.haaretz.com

"YouTube is an incredible tool for sharing videos and giving individuals an opportunity to broadcast themselves, but like other social networking sites it can be abused or used for sinister and dangerous purposes," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. "There are those who may try to exploit the technology to spread racism, anti-Semitism and other forms of hate."

It seems that now that the ADL has joined the policing of youtube, so we will get more videos being wiped off youtube now.

The truth of what is happening and the abuses going on the Gaza strip will be hidden away - as more videos will be taken down if they are about what is going really going on.

Just like the thread by, JanusFin
www.abovetopsecret.com...

Youtube has already been taking down some of the truth seekers videos and faking the counter views of videos - now there will be more policing.

Where is it we will be able to see truth in videos on the internet?

The fact some videos show the truth - does not mean they are against one group or another - they show facts of certain matters. The videos are not discriminating against one group or another - some of them just show the abuse going on around the world.



ADL - can say - since a video could cause discrimination in the future - or people are outraged over what is going on somewhere from watching a video. Thus the video could be wiped off youtube.

Here is a youtube video - about this - but they know this video will not be up long - so they are asking people to duplicate it. So if anyone out there knows how to do that, please do.
www.youtube.com...

Someone needs to start an alternative to youtube - that doesn't take videos down that do show the truth.

The internet is slowly but surely being tempered and truth being hidden.

Policing of the internet is getting tighter and tighter - at what point might they say ATS - is causing problems?

Question: when will this start to affect ATS and other forums?

When will the "powers that be" say a certain thread causes descrimination and thus policing of what can be talked about start happening?

Can you imagine what would happen if the ADL were going to sit in on major policy issues in government? Or if they were to preview all network TV content? Wait a minute they already do!? Well, then what business do they have in policing the INternational computer video network? None. No more than Israel has a right to censor Iranian TV or Iran to censor UK or UK to censor US tv. They have no jurisdiction and should be sued by people that resepct free speech no matter how ugly. The first amendment exists to protect the speech that the ADL does not like, otherwise it would not matter at all. They are worse than fundamentalists, in fact they are a wing of the fundamentalists. Imagine if the Saudis said they could work to help censor YouTube so the people in their country wouldn't be exposed to Atheism or the concentration camps, it works both ways, and breeds ignorance and certainty of which the ADL embraces fully.

Besides if you can erase the forms of argument then you ensure the physical war and chaos of a restricted speech environment. By restricting speech they create more suffering more violence and more ignorance, and will they take responsibility, of course not, they will blame the tools YouTube, books, guns, radio. All extensions of man not causes of man, what a bunch of fools or should they better be called crazies?

Who polices the ADL, where do they receive their funding from, who is involved at top level, who benefits etc?

If the ADL is to sacrifice the freedom of speech on behave of their zionist agenda, who is going to monitor zionist hate crime and speech?



The above video shows the face of zionists as witnessed by Palestinians. Exposing this is now considered as a hate crime at Youtube.

Everything is driven by a rational -- ie an excuse that facilitates confusing most people into thinking there is some justification. One possible approach is to make videos, articles or websites as what I call "Contra". Explain/document the evil deeds and praise them and their perpetrators as wonderful. That can hardly be called defaming since the basic principle of defamation is opposition. The consciousness of most people will see through the stance being taken.

For example the old site:

The ADL are a bunch of extremists whinners who should STFU. Those anti-free-speech people should go to China and North Korea. I hate those people.

Below is what the have ADL resorted to in the past.

uk.youtube.com...


If they can approach someone such as David Icke and shout "Tell us why you hate the Jews!" before proceeding to throw projectiles, it begs the quetion of what else they're willing to do and who else will be targeted on the basis of their views.

I suggest you use metacafe or live leak for online video fun. I stoped visiting youtube when they did the conspiracy round up. Bottom line? Boycott you tube.
