Free speech must be a thing of the past.

He was right about a lot of things.  Dwight Eisenhower warned us about where our country was headed back in the 50's. He was pretty perceptive himself.

The scariest part of the whole thing is how YouTube is blocking free speech… Free speech must be a thing of the past. I guess Ronald Reagan was right when he said we’re only one generation away from losing everything. 

The first amendment does not prevent private companies from expressing their own free speech.  They are actually expressing their own rights by policing their own platform.  In fact this was actually decided in court between PragerU and youtube, and the judge concluded that youtube has no ability to restrict free speech.

True, but the battle is ongoing and Prager has filed a second lawsuit. We will see what happens.

That video smells of agenda.  

All videos, news articles, public forums, have an agenda. Any where that money is involved there is an agenda either from a personal gain or corporate gain. In regards to financial gains none of us are above reproach.

I am always suspect of the narrative of a person that was fired or pushed out as being a means of vindication against those that fired them. However, I do ask myself are there nuggets of truth or ideologies in what was presented that would lead to a cause of concern. In this video, one question that comes up is there a conflict of interest in terms of scientists holding and profiting off of patents while holding administrative responsibilities for a Nationally funded Health organization? Would that person push and fund research on treatments that they profit from? Would a person in that position push out subordinates whose research could shift the treatments from those that this person is profiting from to another treatment pathway.

Here's a list of patents that I found in public records for Dr. Fauci. the one that concerns me is patent 6911527, which seems to indicate that he would profit from any vaccine that is prepared using those epitopes and antibodies.

Patent number: 9896509

Abstract: Methods are provided for the treatment of a HIV infection. The methods can include administering to a subject with an HIV infection a therapeutically effective amount of an agent that interferes with the interaction of gp120 and ?4 integrin, such as a ?4?1 or ?4?7 integrin antagonist, thereby treating the HIV infection. In several examples, the ?4 integrin antagonist is a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to a ?4, ?1 or ?7 integrin subunit or a cyclic hexapeptide with the amino acid sequence of CWLDVC. Methods are also provided to reduce HIV replication or infection. The methods include contacting a cell with an effective amount of an agent that interferes with the interaction of gp120 and ?4 integrin, such as a ?4?1 or ?4?7 integrin antagonist. Moreover, methods are provided for determining if an agent is useful to treat HIV.

Abstract: Nucleic acids encoding recombinant CD4-fusion proteins are disclosed herein that include a CD4 polypeptide ligated at its C-terminus with a portion of an immunoglobulin comprising a hinge region and a constant domain of a mammalian immunoglobulin heavy chain. The portion of the IgG is fused at its C-terminus with a polypeptide comprising a tailpiece from the C terminus of the heavy chain of an IgA antibody or a tailpiece from a C terminus of the heavy chain of an IgM antibody. Also disclosed herein are methods for using these CD4-fusion proteins.

Publication number: 20030180254

Abstract: A method for activating a mammalian immune system entails a series of IL-2 administrations that are effected intermittently over an extended period. Each administration of IL-2 is sufficient to allow spontaneous DNA synthesis in peripheral blood or lymph node cells of the patient to increase and peak, and each subsequent administration follows the preceding administration in the series by a period of time that is sufficient to allow IL-2 receptor expression in peripheral or lymph node blood of the patient to increase, peak and then decrease to 50% of peak value. This intermittent IL-2 therapy can be combined with another therapy which targets a specific disease state, such as an anti-retroviral therapy comprising, for example, the administration of AZT, ddI or interferon alpha. In addition, IL-2 administration can be employed to facilitate in situ transduction of T cells in the context of gene therapy.

Dr. Fauci is gonna get rich!  He and Bill Gates will be partying like rock stars in a couple months, and we learned about it here first!  Way to crack the case, Robin.  Back to the bat cave.

I wouldn't jump immediately to the conclusion that it is YouTube/Google doing it.  Awhile back a bunch of airgun videos were being deleted, and it turned out that it was an anti-gun group reporting all videos that were gun/shooting related. 

I guess YT has software that automatically boots videos that receive a certain amount of negative reports in a period of time.  So if there was 6-8 of us that hated fly tying videos, or gardening videos, I suppose we could start having them kicked off.

FINALLY for Maryland :grin: I no longer have to say that I am keeping darters for dinner!
