The YouTube page isn't a public forum: it's a one-way tool for the administration to disseminate content. It would be a different story if comments were turned on and only critical ones were being removed, for example.
With the same logic these "private companies" use, that they don't have to abide by the 1st amendment, cant our "private businesses" stop abiding by unconstitutional lockdowns?
The Constitution constrains the state, not private actors. The claim made wrt lockdowns is that they are a legitimate use of the state's police power. One can of course challenge that in the courts.
That's like posting a notice you are going to build a new road, inviting everyone to a public discussion period, and then not letting the public talk. Its just 4-5 people on a stage talking about how great the new road will be. No one is allowed to complain. IRL those people would storm the stage and take the mic.
But you could make the same argument for twitter. It just didn't have an option to disable replies like youtube does. Either can be used as a one-way communication tool or a forum. I think twitter may have added something to disable replies on tweets tough, not sure.
The 1a issue with Trump and Twitter was that he was selectively blocking interlocutors on the basis of viewpoint. Had he disabled all replies to tweets, the issue would not have arisen.
There was a court case early in the Trump administration regarding comments on official gov Twitter account for the president, and how they could not block it due to 1A, but they could hide the comments, or something like that. I forget the exact details...
Its all part of their giant double standard. Trump can't prevent people from replying to his tweets by blocking them but they can turn of everything possible to prevent you from speaking up.
Want to troll them HARD. Have everyone go tweet the same simple non-bannable statement to Biden's twitter over and over. Every tweet everyone replies once...
"You're a horrible POTUS." Or whatever. They can't ban you for it and Biden can't block you per the Trump court precedent. So his twitter account will just be filled with people saying how horrible he is.
Don't post it more than once per tweet, they might ban for repeat identical posts, but make sure everyone posts it once for every tweet. You get enough people and that is all anyone will see when they post those fluffy BS posts about dogs or whatever is the statement you come up with and everyone posts. It will be the new Q sent me...
And when they block people sue.
Hold their feet to the fire on these lame ass double standards.
An argument could be made for it, yes. I'm not sure how merited the claim is, however. Would have to take it to someone who's willing to legally pursue it. Could be a nice little victory, and the comment section could be another area to redpill people.
People were free to rail against Trump at every turn, so people should be equally free to express their distaste for the current administration.
No I dont agree sorry the White House and media r to different aspects. You tube shouldnt allow its users to shut that off or if youtube did they should be the one we go after. If we start blending then we lose track of how this happened in first place love u though feel ur frustration

They do this by using the word offical. We expect YouTube to fix it but they just say oh it's the official page we cant block it. and the White House says we did it to prevent spam and its allowed by YouTube our goal is to get message out not get replies. Those can come to us other ways
They literally didn't follow the constitution with the election, what makes you think they care anything about anything else it says? ?
They're rocking that gold fringed flag like it's going out of style
That flag is not a flag of any country on the face of this planet, that's for sure.
Courts did rule it was illegal for Trump to block someone on Twitter. What's the difference?
That’s exactly the point I am getting at ;)
I guess someone needs to sue? A red state AG I would think, but I'm not sure.

It’s the same because most all the comments are critical. That’s why they’ve turned off the comments.
They had them on at first, then something caused them to decide to turn them off.
That’s fine, though. There’s no obligation to host a public forum; merely to not engage in viewpoint discrimination if they are hosting one.

Shut the fuck up faggot
Someone asked a question about 1a jurisprudence, I answered it.
Cope, snowflake.
I don’t believe they were.

Is that two trannies in one picture?
LMFAO
No. It's a feature not a requirement.

IDK, but I love they gave up deleting/resetting the down votes. Mine are still applied.
I love even more when I told my 14 yr. old about the down votes she said "Cool! I'm gonna do that"! And she did. ????
all the negative comments are hurting their feelings
The cathedral is taking a beating out there.
Are you new here? It's only illegal if we do it :)
Obviously the Constitution means nothing to these criminals, where have you been the last 3 months?
"Silence is true Democracy, power to the people"
You could say the same here about mods posting stickies and turning off the comments. TDW never did that.

Do you think these Marxist corporations give a shit about the constitution? Of course not.
Take it to court and WIN
It literally does. Just like the process "electing" Biden did. They are a walking violation of the Constitution and are a disgrace to America.
"Combat xenophobia against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders"
They're prepping for a China takeover and don't want us to call them commies.
Not in clown world.
They do not care about the constitution.
You just went through a summer where they mulled over destroying it.
They want it gone.
Didn't some court say Trump couldn't block people off his own Twitter account?
443 likes 3900 DISLIKES Bwhahaha
ON all Biden Videos!
They're just subtly reminding you they don't give af what anyone’s got to say.
Laws don’t apply to certain people and corporations (Big Anything) only to the little people.
there is very strong evidence that the new press secretary is a robot or cyborg of some kind, more to come...
comments were turned off for Trump too. gold fringe flag is not the real flag. only title 4 us flag is real.
From what I heard, Trump couldn't selectively delete comments. He had to turn them off or leave them on. Those are the options
1A protects you from government....not big tech
It does. BUT they control everything now so they can make the rules up as they go along.
That is what sick, evil, fucktards do.
