Leftist Jagoff Ethan Klein Urges His Millions of Listeners to "Bomb" the NRA Convention;
YouTube Responds By Giving Him a Rinky-Dink One Week Suspension
The real privilege: Leftwing privilege.
Ethan Klein, a left-wing YouTuber, was suspended by the Google-owned platform on Friday after telling viewers to bomb the NRA meeting, a comment that was immediately followed by the YouTuber walking it back and calling it a "joke."
...
"So there was a big protest outside the NRA meeting, which was good. Do we have any insight into what they are actually talking about there at the NRA meeting, that's today, in Texas? Someone should bomb that building."
Amid nervous laughter from Klein's co-hosts, the YouTuber then tried to walk the comment back.
Ethan Klein is one of YouTube's Protected Class and a favorite of YouTube's CEO Susan Wojcicki. Klein got a one-week suspension -- a slap on the wrist -- for a no-kidding no-ambiguity urging to bomb a public place, the sort of thing that would get an unprotected YouTuber, and anyone associated with the right, banned for life.

Why was LeafyisHere 5 mill sub YouTube channel banned for bullying but Ethan Klein calls for a terrorist attack on US soil & only gets a YouTube strike?
SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT!

I don't support deplatforming. Yes I am certain Ethan wasn't serious. But Twitter and Youtube bannings are like when a kid with a rich daddy kills a family during a DUI and only gets probation, but some random guy gets 2 years for 10g of weed. We all notice and we all know why.
Be right wing and make videos criticizing anyone and you are already walking on thin ice. The hammer could come down any day.
But be trans and left wing and you can literally threaten to minecraft Twitch HQ and still get your channel back.
We notice this stuff.
