Its the end of forgotten weapons, a far greater loss.

Fuck youtube

Can't show people how to reload.
Can't try to directly sell products that are already illegal to sell?
Can't show someone loading a belt fed firearm.

so no more movie trailers?

Report every one.

Oh look, it’s time for our hourly new thread on this shit.

thank you for not using the catalog and posting in one of the three other threads on the same subject.
please an hero at your earliest convenience.
there's probably a keltec thread on r9k you should emulate.

Behold, raw corporate power. This is the future libertarians cum themselves over.

It is. This is only a problem if Google can directly leverage government power to oppose a differing service that doesn't hate freedom from stealing away the market share they're thumbing their collective noses at. And since Google supposedly supports the same causes as the IFF, them doing so at all would expose them as hypocrites and frauds.

are we at the militia forming stage yet?

Dude if you're seeing this thread every hour you need to get a fucking life.

>banning hickock45
I've been out of pocket today, but if youtube did that, it was not done without some serious discussion and purpose. I understand both sides of it, but I know that a gun channel is nothing I am willing to "fall on my sword" over. In some ways, I can't help thinking how fortunate we are the anti-gun world is mainly focused on these things.

>manufacturing a firearm

including AR builds. what a fucking joke

Corporatism =/= free market capitalism

They are focused on these things because they are easy wins. Don't be fooled. They are targeting things for a reason.

As soon as they accomplish that, they will move on to some other "small win" until they have banned semi-autos, pistols, etc.

Fuck you, /k/ is life.

>In some ways, I can't help thinking how fortunate we are the anti-gun world is mainly focused on these things.
What makes you think they'll stop there? You think they'll take this stuff off of YouTube and then be satisfied?

>Capitalism is perfect, this business operating for-profit and doing things to maximize their image and revenues isn't capitalism it's corporatism.

Tell me again how libertarians aren't as laughable as Marxists?

you guys dont get the reference.
replace the words "youtube" with "NRA" and "gun channel" for "bumpstock" and its word for word what hickock45 said in his video about the potential bumpstock ban.
im pretty sure he took that video down

So a market where the big corporations have monopolies and agreements with the government is a truly free market?

First they came for the neo-nazis, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a neo-nazi

Then they came for the gun vloggers, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a gun vlogger.

Then they came for the rationalist skeptics, and I did not speak out-- because I was not a rationalist skeptic.

Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

There need to be more militias

It only sows the seeds of their own destruction, YT is a user content-driven website so decisions by their management to purge one side of an argument to make some greater ideological point will only succeed in purging traffic. If this was just about raw business then YT wouldn't be giving up potentially 50% of the money made on gun argument videos, bigger ad deals aren't going to magically walk in because some gun videos are gone, because they want much more (FCC TV standards).

It'll ultimately hurt everyone. It's only guns now, but in a few months YT will start locking down videos involving alcohol or cigarettes, real or not. Eventually videos of people dying will have to go too, meaning absolutely no police videos. Eventually "ISIS propaganda" will be mass-flagged, and arab videos will get mass purged. Also anything even remotely antisemitic, say Muslims criticizing Israel or Merchant of Venice. New legislation in Congress might force them to purge all "violent videogame" content too, as could SESTA vis-a-vis anything that links to a website which hosts adult listings. What if all mentions of "pepe the smug frog" (declared a hate symbol by the SPLC) are purged too?

In the end, nobody is left.

eh, just get peernet. Most kids these days aren't on YT though, the new hotness is Twitch. YT is this sort of leftover that came too late to streaming to get that community, so it's all older people now.

Ha. This post is funny because it references Hickok45's original posts concerning the bumpstock ban after the Vegas shooting.

Twitch basically signed their own death too, recently. They're imposing insane demands on channel hosts that'll basically kill a channel's ability to interact with their viewers; chats must be monitored and maintained to keep things "clean", and content must be censored as well.

If you're a small channel, you just won't be able to do this because you're one person, if you're a big channel like Vinesauce or PewDiePie, where the rowdy and free chat is part of the appeal, it kills a lot of your model, and if you want to keep your chat, you must hire staff or something to manage it.
Basically, you disable chats, or need special staff to moderate it, even if you're actually hosting a separate chat, because they'll still hold it against your channel.

I don't know what neon haired bitch was put in charge, but they're pretty much done for, Twitch is gonna be in shambles before the year is over.
There's only gonna be old Bob Ross tapes left, and that isn't exactly exclusive to Twitch, so who wants to go to a shitty place to watch Bob Ross, when you can just torrent his work?

is this the end of nerf as we know it

What happened to free speech?

Also they suspended mikes tactical a gun manufacturer.

wish the Twitch IRL had more firearm stuff. I usually watch StephenFRA for the bounty hunting streams, other than that its meh.

Nothing. It doesn't apply to completely privately owned online forums that you willingly sign up to.

why? ian doesn't sell firearm accessories
unless you want a trench conversion for a G98

>if you're a big channel like Vinesauce or PewDiePie
PewDiePie is already permanently banned for that one time he was trying to cross a bridge.

Half the stuff he showcases is waiting to be sold at auction houses with a link to bid in the description. Youtube would absolutely consider his videos advertising if anyone reported them. He also gets fairly deep into the mechanics on many videos which could be construed as instructing viewers how to make them.

They should all mirror their stuff on PornHub unless the ToS agreement says you can only post porn.

>high capacity magazines
>i.e. standard capacity
>grouped in with DIAS
Fuck these fuckers. Glad I only watch on adblocked Firefox.

Why dont we form one?

His videos are mostly commercials essentially, for auction houses like Rock Island Auctions (where he's employed), and James D. Julia.

It's kind of a mutually beneficial agreement between him and these auction houses, he gets to do videos on these guns, often take them apart, some times even shoot them, if the consigner agrees to let him do so. This is great commercial for them, apparantly they pull in a lot more on average when Ian does a video for them.

YouTube might be jeopardizing this now, but I think this is still something the auction houses will continue to be interested in if a new viable video sharing service crops up, because it's good advertising and PR.

So I think that even if this is something that Google might kill for now, it's not going away just because of it.
Ian clearly has a big enough audience, and the auction houses has everything to gain from ForgottenWeapons, so every party involved (sans Google), will seek out a resolution.

Is there an alternative to YouTube?

>how to make
How to assemble.
No one makes guns, but the manufacturer. Under strict Gov regegulations. Stop regurgitating Democrat talking points.

I'll gladly see you do it, but you need A) Capital, and B), to make yourself visible on social media, so you gotta know how to advertise and afford to host.

Well. Atleast under a militia we would have guarenteed protections under the 2nd ammendment. Unlike individual possession, which is under constant threat every week

Smashcast is about to explode if this is true. Sup Forums got the 4CC banned from Twitch just by being themselves and Smashcast doesn't have a problem with them showing up on the stream. Everyone will just move there. Full30 is gonna get a boost from this YouTube shit, but something tells me it isn't gonna work as a full on replacement for every content creator out there.

And if I replace the word “eggs” with “niggers”, then I beat three niggers every morning when I make scrambled eggs. What’s your point?

Pornhub

You think Google are gonna go by actual legal definitions and not just bullshit their way through all of it?

The lack of firearms knowledge dissemination will kill gun culture.

Arguably, but gun culture isn't going to let itself be stopped by Google shenanigans.

Just heard the news. Are some of the youtube gun channels jumping to pornhub?

fuck off FBI

Demo ranch and hichok45 literally does none of that shit. Do you even watch their channels?

InRange and C&Rsenal for now--it's a hella avant-garde way of diversifying your distribution platform, but if you can put full-on camrips of off-Broadway musicals on Pornhub and full-on feature length movies, I think the gun channels will do just fine.

BitChute, Full30, Dtube if you can fuckin figure out Steemit. I think Minds has there own video hosting these days. Someone tell me more.

Man, I'm tellin ya, some one needs to "accidentally" burn a few of Youtube's server-farms. The
Texas guy couldn't of thrown a couple of bombs in a useful direction?

Kek I just bought a lathe and when I get it up and running right I was going to make crazy gun build videos for fun. Looks like I'll be uploading to pronhub now

InRangeTV actually did this yesterday.

Literally a meme. There will be a long term solution soon. BitChute and Full30 are the frontrunners.

This is why I went hard right.

The market of ideas and goods and services is a great thing, until you let you know who in. Then it eventually becomes what we are experiencing right now.

There is a very, very compelling reason why they have been kicked out of over 300 nations and societies for the past 3000 plus years.

Going all in on any political ideology is pretty laughable. Name one that isn't.

Gee, I wonder who's behind this extremely conspicuous post?

actually tho, this isn't a terrible idea

no, it's the boomer, as always. Leech off your young, import cheap labor to make your easy life even easier, salt the earth and make sure it dies shortly after you do.

but it's only thanks to the faggy social atmosphere

I plan on starting a video series on the Gingery lathe, and his other books, specifically to get into home gunsmithing. Maybe I'll do that this summer.

>implying they show any of those realistically

I expected no less of the DUDE WEED crowd

If you think the average boomer, with little to no political agency and certainly not enough financial influence to affect the entire coming GENERATIONS is responsible, you are blind.

>import cheap labor to make your easy life even easier
The immigration act of 1965, which effectively mandated importing less whites into the country and more third worlders (that cheap labor you just mentioned) was proposed by one of (((them))). Just look up the stats on how it has affected the demographic of america, and how much of government welfare goes to these new imported people. It's staggering.

The boomer was an unwitting accomplice at best. At worst, another victim of extending the hand to a besieged people who took advantage of post-war America.

Download the Ammo Channel before it's gone.

InRangeTV actually moved to pornhub. Like actually. Look it up

I want to build a Galil. I figure I could make it use Mini-14 magazines, so I don't have to look for rare, ratty condition $100 magazines.

This, already on it

I yesterday contacted a bunch of Youtube channels and told them to move to Bitchute, I don't know how many got the message given the deluge of DMs they usually get each day, but it was worth the try even as little as 1 makes the move.

Anyone else saving gun channel videos onto externals like crazy? I just ordered an 8tb external and I'm filling up me other empty ones.

Not on my machine...

Shit goes both ways

Fucking modniggers.

We've already seen in the actions of CNN that there are Favored Son youtube channels that can do whatever they want and have the ear of the upoper echelons of youtube. CNN told youtube to throw Alex Jones off the site, and within a week it was done.

Bullets n Burgers... they're boring as F anyway. good riddance

>the actual state of /k/ mods

>can't see videos on reloading Fuddy-06

So, what platform is everyone moving to? Mosin Virus has some of the best build videos imo.

Youtube is really trying to politically correct themselves into bankruptcy. They don't make any content, they rely on others to do that and profit massively while giving them a cut. if they keep going, they're gonna lose all their cash cows, and GOD HELP THEM if someone decides to create a "free speech friendly" alternative that isn't shit.

I dont see how this is Sup Forums related and not /k/ related

This will guarantee a conservative akternative with healthy viewer numbers.

Lolbergs will never understand that Corp can replace Govt but still have the same rules, values, and monopoly of force.

Then you are a literal fucking idiot.
