The statewide bans in several states are a more important factor there.

More importantly again, adjacent ones. Iirc some of the stricter continental states still have plenty of trouble due significantly to neighboring states that aren't as guns-go gung-ho.

Trump is now marginally more not hated than not not hated, according to a poll that historically likes him far more than other polls, as reported by a news site that historically likes him far more than most other news sites (and even slightly more than Fox), as tweeted by the main person on the Trump family who dedicates his entire life to make Trump number one! What a magnificent boast!

There's an active shooter at Youtube headquarters in San Bruno.

Looks like they demonetized one video too many.

And so...

A woman matching Aghdam’s name and appearance maintained several YouTube channels and a personal website where she published videos about a range of topics, including veganism, animal cruelty and fitness. She also frequently ranted against YouTube, claiming the company discriminated against her and filtered her videos to prevent them from getting views.

"There is no free speech in real world & you will be suppressed for telling the truth that is not supported by the system," read one post on her site. "There is no equal growth opportunity on YOUTUBE or any other video sharing site, your channel will grow if they want to!!!!!!"

She made similar claims in videos, saying the company was cheating video makers out of money. "Growing on YouTube is not in your hands," she said. "It all depends on who is controlling your channel."

Let those video topics sink in for a while. Weird stuff.*

Edit: *The situation is weird, not the topics.

Just because hitler was vegan doesn't make all vegans hitler, if that's the kind of line of thinking you're implying.

We'll never know why she decided to use violence rather than, say, take Youtube to court (other than obvious things like money).

Hitler was as vegan as he was Aryan. Which is to say, not as much as he might have claimed.

Not sure where you pulled that from. Rather, it's seemingly contradictory for Hitler to be a vegan to begin with.

Hitler most likely supported vegetarianism for health reasons, but imagine if he was against animal cruelty.

He was. The Nazi banned vivisection on animals for exemple.

Which is odd, considering his views on certain races as sub-human.

Maybe he'd rather have them put down than suffer? Nazis: The original PETA.
(IDK to what extent Hitler authorized Mengele's experiments.)
Or maybe its more of a "survival of the fittest" attitude that led to the Holocaust. Eugenics, and all that.

It's one of those urban myths that go around I guess. The point is more that 'just because hitler was non-evil-thing-x, all people who are non-evil-thing-x are not hitler'. Basically, I thought you were implying that she did the violence beause she did those stuff. Or maybe you were trying to imply Youtube was blocking those stuff.

Either way, her views are irrelevant here as to why she chose to use violence.

Is the confusion because I said "weird stuff"? I meant the situation, not the video topics themselves.

I didn't know what you were implying by 'let those video topics sink in', so, yeah, that contributed to the misunderstanding.

The situation is certainly wierd, and unfortunately, we'll never know why she chose violence instead of other means. Unless she spelled it out somewhere.

that picture might just be the most absurd thing I see today

Doesn't surprise me, one of the well-known facts about Hitler is that he completely adored his German shepherd and treated it very well.

[Kagus]

This provides an entirely different perspective on the Furred Reich. It's finally coming together...

Even one of the most reviled humans in history has their good points.  *shock*
