NPI and Radix’s small YouTube channel has had multiple videos removed; for the time being, however, the channel itself has survived the #VoxAdpocalypse. We had already been demonetized in 2017 and suffered waves of videos being “limited” since then. So nothing came as a surprise.
One removed video was emblematic of the new policy. “Who Are We” was a project @MarkBrahmin and I worked on some four years ago. It was evocative and positive in outlook, including nothing approaching “hate speech.” It had generated hundreds of thousands of views. Gone.
Conservatives, of course, want to pretend that all this is some crazy overreaction by SJWs to Steven Crowder’s insults. That episode was, at most, a catalyst.
