YouTube has suspended Senator Rand Paul for seven days after removing two of his interviews for “COVID misinformation.”
Last week, YouTube removed a video of the senator being interviewed by Newsmax and discussing the science behind cloth masks. Now, they have removed a second video in which he defended his comments on masks and blasted YouTube for their censorship.
“Saying cloth masks work, when they don’t, actually risks lives, as someone may choose to care for a loved one with COVID while only wearing a cloth mask. This is not only bad advice but also potentially deadly misinformation,” Paul said in the video.
“They are now banning all my speech, including speech that is given on the Senate floor, which is protected constitutional,” the Kentucky Republican senator told reporters on Tuesday. “YouTube now thinks they are smart enough and godly enough that they can oversee speech, even constitutionally protected speech.”
The senator tweeted about the censorship and called for people to watch the video on other platforms.
A badge of honor . . . leftwing cretins at Youtube banning me for 7 days for a video that quotes 2 peer reviewed articles saying cloth masks don’t work.
