YouTube declares that science is hate speech

YouTube has declared that this sentence is hate speech:

“See, if you want to cut off a leg or an arm you’re mentally ill, but if you want to cut off healthy breasts or a penis, you’re transgender,”

There are people who feel that their arm or their leg isn't really part of their body and they want doctors to cut the "offending" limb off.  Naturally doctors recognize that those people are mentally ill and instead of cutting off their limb they try and get the person to realize that they're great just as they are.

But if a man says he's a woman too many doctors are saying ok and hacking off his genitals, pumping  him full of hormones, and ensuring that the likelihood that he's going to try to commit suicide goes through the roof.

Science tells us that our sex is determined by our DNA.  Human experience tells us that men aren't women.

To declare that saying the obvious is hate speech is a sign of how biased and science denying the left in America is today.

Transgendered people don't have high suicide rates because they're not accepted but because once they spend a fortune on what's nothing more than a Halloween costume the underlying problem that caused them to hate who they were isn't fixed; now that's a shock.

The left hates the transgendered.  Think about it. If your best friend showed up and declared that he was Napoleon Emperor of France would the loving response be to enable his insanity by bowing to him or would it be taking him aside telling you and everyone else loves him for who he is and that he has no need to be anything other than who he is?

Clearly YouTubes definition of hate speech is anything they don't like.  Stating a scientific fact can't be hate speech. No fact can be hate speech.

But even if it were hate speech it shouldn't be banned unless it's illegal.

The video doesn't call for prosecution or attacks on transgendered it just states the clear facts about the transgendered movement. Censoring it is an editorial decision which means that YouTube isn't a platform but a publisher.

But if YouTube is a publisher then it's liable for all the content on its site.  Which means average run of the mill non-public Americans could sue YouTube for any video that misrepresents them.

While dishonest Supreme Court justices threw out our slander laws for public figures they still exist for private citizens.  So for example the pro-life kids who were attacked by an Indian activist could sue YouTube for any video that was selectively edited to make the kids look bad.

It's time to recognize that hate speech is nothing more than an amorphous term that leftists continually change to cover any speech they don't like.
