Because the influential role models teaching firearm safety are the cause of shootings, and not the videos on the platform that tell young men they’re not needed.

        Yeah they did. My reading of the policy is that YouTube does not allow content that shows off legally dubious (or outright banned in any state) accessories, and does not allow firearms in live streams (because shit can and often does go wrong, and live censoring isn’t really a thing). Teaching firearm safety is still very much allowed.

            That’s a lemmy or youtube issue. It’s in French for me. The unfurl data includes localizations and the wrong one is being displayed.

        Maybe OP did that, but that’s exactly what Rossman is saying in the video.

            You must have watched some other video than I watched then. He blathers about (paraphrasing) “if you link to any firearm accessory, even a holster, they will delete the video and your channel.” That’s just not true.
