Sounds like YouTube is starting to "clean house"... do we think gc/radfem content is safe?

Start ripping the stuff you think is valuable.

Reason I'm worried: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2020/jun/30/youtube-bans-david-duke-and-other-us-far-right-users

To be clear, I'm Left except for gc/radfem, but now we know the tech giants are lumping us with far right.

Jesus, someone save Magdalen Berns' content.

I did that yesterday! I have ALL her videos on my computer. Don't know where to put 'em, but I got 'em!

Great! In case they're removed from youtube having them saved would be very useful.

Can you give me a hint how to save all her videos? Is there an app I need or...? I'm on a Mac.

Thanks. I ended up figuring it out and got all the Madgalen videos and most of the PeachYoghurt videos. It didn't work with the videos that had content warnings, though. I'll have to give those a try again.

Reddit,Youtube, Facebook are in the same bed together

Instagram is owned by FB too.

This is what we call a monopoly. We have anti-monopoly laws. Time to enforce!

Well, shit. I just contacted some women I know who have a radfem channel. I hope they get their stuff backed up in time. This is so idiotic.

I would never assume safety now. Rip what content you can, and contact your favorite GC-supportive content creators so they know to back up their content.

this is creating the conditions for an absolutely horrendous backlash.

[–]SillyMoneyGoose 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (6 children)

Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? Why now and all coordinated?

[–]BettysBitterButter 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

The whole Black Lives Matter groundswell of anti-hate protests have caused it to be envogue for the digital kabal to appear like they're anti-hate. So they ban some actual "hate speech" and under that guise they ban uppity women who don't know how to stay in our place. The JKR was probably just the tipping point.

[–]BettysBitterButter 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Very very good point.

Has anyone archived all of Magdalen Berns videos? Could someone who knows how to do that please make the effort to preserve them?

Read a bit further down and someone says she has saved the videos. Would be a great idea to have multiple copies, though.

PeachYoghurt, too. Any others that should be preserved?

Someone save Sekhmet She-Owl‘s videos please. Really scary to see the mass banning all across social media and no news coverage. First they make us political enemies and then they silence us.

[–]BettysBitterButter 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Working on it.

I think they're making a big mistake with this one. Back in the day is was unthinkable that MySpace could fail. Digg was huge and self destructed which created the influx of users to reddit. Facebook isn't popular with young people now. The big companies may try and corral people but the internet is still very fluid underneath.

I really like a rad fem lesbian on youtube but I don't know how to contact her or download her videos, which I wouldn't want to do without her permission. Any advice?

[–]sosorreal[S] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

https://ytmp3.cc/en13/ and i would just save them. it doesn't mean do anything with them yet, but if they are taken down, we will have them

[–]BettysBitterButter 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

You can contact content creators by commenting under their videos. Or does she have comments disabled on all of her videos?

[–]Death_Tephra 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Comments disabled. She knows better.

It's no surprise - tech companies are all about being the most woke until it comes to getting their employees to stop groping women or paying them the same. It's all performative. Once the tides start turning in years to come, they will have much to answer for.

[–]sosorreal[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yes, this is what I'm thinking and looking forward to! Sad that it will take some years, though. And we can't stop speaking up in the meantime.

I would save this YouTube video with https://www.freeonlineconverter.org
