YouTube has terminated the account of popular anti-SJW content creator Bearing.
YouTube’s suspension of Bearing, who had over 300,000 subscribers, was announced and protested by other YouTube stars.
Some users questioned whether the channel was terminated for advertising cannabis oils, however a number of popular channels which also advertise similar oils are still active on the platform.
Attempting to visit Bearing’s channel returns users with a notice claiming that channel participated in “spam, deceptive practices, and misleading content or other Terms of Service violations,” an allegation which other YouTube creators denied.
“His videos as of lately have been pretty tame. I don’t think they’ve been anything out of the normal,” declared YouTuber TheQuartering.
“Bearing had a completely clean YouTube record, no strikes of any kind, and then out of nowhere today he got three copyright strikes in a row. That’s a little suspicious, wouldn’t you say?” added popular YouTube star Undoomed, who also has over 300,000 subscribers, in his own video.
YouTube has previously sanctioned conservative, libertarian, and anti-SJW accounts, including Mike Cernovich, Sargon of Akkad, Paul Joseph Watson, the Daily Mail, PragerU, Sky Williams, and Steven Crowder.
In March, the platform also banned all gun videos, while in February, criticism of CNN’s Parkland shooting coverage was censored.
This year, a report revealed that YouTube had partnered with the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) to police the platform.
