The core of the story has to be technology focused.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.

Interesting. Are there videos of Trump threatening to end a civilization still on there? What about the many times he has dehumanized entire groups of people?

I don't think it was that channel linking them.

maybe we should go to the source, bans aren't enough.

Jail the source of those rumors, Trump

Oh thank goodness. Those videos were really harshing the genocide vibes. MIGA!

Of course Google censors any speech they don't like. If you're not making money on YT and just creating for the fun of it, it's time to move to an alternative before you get nuked too.

Honestly I think its probably just that the Lego company doesn't want their brand used for straight up propaganda (even if there are other companies that sell plastic brick sets)

I believe they're on telegram, iirc.

Oh cool, look what I found: https://youtu.be/-h0EnKDoMh4

Most of them very well made with several having good soundtracks. I doubt that linking Trump to Epstein is banned speech on youtube, and several other channels are publishing the videos and edits of them. At least 6 pages of infinite scroll reloads of them if you search for "iran lego video playlist" which youtube autofills after iran lego
