How YouTube Censored Michelangelo Because Of Zelda Fan Outrage (The Jimquisition)
Last week's video annoyed fans of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Last week's video was slapped with an age restriction that basically censored it. Last week's video earned this censorship for featuring Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam.
Amazing.

Those horse names in the stable (?) at ~3m22s.... :-)
Yeah I was like, so is this video going to get flagged for "Cum Pie" or what ?!
Hi Steph, would you consider uploading to TILVids on the Fediverse? It can be done very easily and I'd love to not have to login to Youtube to see your vids, and you'd be a very big fish in that pond on that site! Pretty please? https://tilvids.com
That really famous picture from Vietnam of naked people screaming and running away from fire bombs got censored on YouTube for nudity. Also facebook.
That video was very well done that outlines many real issues with fandom's going too far. Thank God for you Jim! and sorry youtube is letting this happen again, ive only seen the zelda video yesterday... Keep doing your best :D
Sorry to hear this happened. No doubt the Nintendo fanboys are to blame. YouTube seems to be on a tear with this at the moment the Red Letter Media blokes recently released commented on whether they could talk about ‘Mars Attacks!’, as ‘attacks’ might be a bit to violent for YouTube. They then released a cat video which was good for a chuckle.
I have no idea if this would actually help, but it would be great if content creators adopted a video subject tag to strictly identify videos demonstrating YouTube as professionally inept so folks looking to press charges can quickly find evidence in there own subject wheelhouse, and in all others.
A sort of snowball of evidence.
YouTube continue to be a total dumpster fire. It could only get worse if they completely gave the moderation over to an AI.
Could anyone tell the difference? In fact, how do we know they haven't already done so?
Keep it up and keep speaking your truth!
Well done for standing up for everyone...as always. Please have your lawyer on the phone to YouTube.
Ah so that's why last week's episode didn't appear for me until Friday.
If we were to find every instance of The Creation Of Adam & flag it would Google get the message & reverse the decision? Would they(most likely actually) do nothing? Or would they train their bot to nuke it all?
Love the outfit. Reminds me of the bee keepers in Mundaun.
