    The normal work around would be to find a news article that embedded the full speech but thanks for posting it here! I saw the Warnock speech but I missed catching AOC live.

      I messaged one of the mods, asking why videos that are clearly relevant can’t be posted.
      If I post a link to an article with the video, the video becomes secondary to the article.
      The video represent what was actually said, not some interpretation of it.

      Seems to me a weird rule, excluding quality content.
      So instead of working around the rule, I chose simply not to post there. As I suspect others have done too, despite the content is super relevant to the sub.

        A PoliticalVideos community needs to be fostered. I think r/politics always had a similar rule.

        I think that’s a perfectly reasonable reaction. When the community rules add a barrier it’s quite fair to simply refuse to participate - I’m not a mod so I don’t know why that rule is there but I appreciate you posting it here regardless.
