Yeah, I have been hearing about Youtube blocking ad blocks for a while now and I thought maybe Firefox + uBlock Origin is holding ads at bay for a while, but yeah, it happened today. uBlock origin has been unable to block some ads for me and I am thinking of leaving Youtube. I searched day and night (wink wink) for an alternative and I found odysee.com/ and it seems to be open source and less prone to censorship, I was wondering what you guys were using or thinking of switching too. I think Odysee is FOSS which is giant plus for me and I absolutely love it's looks.

What do you guys think?

Sorry, but "nazis and antisemitism" is not politics. It is racism. Saying something like this is nazi-speech one should not repeat

Nazism stands for National Socialism - it's a political ideology, so definitely politics.

Politics is just the method of delivery. It’s racism.

That’s exactly how politics works

Edit: All I mean is that politics is literally nothing more than a way to carry ideas, in this case, to govern. While unethical, racism is an idea. Nazism is clearly politics

You seem to believe that you're impervious to politics.

As I understand it that’s quite a jump. What do you mean?

racism is just a tool in the political toolbelt of fascism

If you are talking about actual Nazis, well, I agree completely.

Saying something like this is nazi-speech one should not repeat

Saying something like what?

"Nazis is politics" is here in germany often used in a paraphrased way by far right people to justify their point of view, since nazi symbols and thing like that are forbidden by law.

By adopting such prases, even if unintentionally, one reproduces and legitimates such thinking.
