I think that YouTube would prefer to not ever have any political content ever again.

You think so?

I think that they would prefer to have cat videos and women doing their nails.

That's how it used to be.

And fluffy nonsense and stuff like that because they're advertisers.

I mean, that's where they're making all their money.

Super chats, yeah, that's a good revenue stream.

But think of it from their angle.

I remember I was talking with Pearl Davis about this, and I'm like, look, it doesn't matter if you bring in $100,000 a month and YouTube gets $20,000 of it.

If they have a sponsor that's worth millions, and the sponsor says, I don't want my stuff on that channel, and if it even accidentally goes on that channel, right, I'm pulling my sponsorship, you're gone.

What do they care?

They're the largest video sharing platform in the world.

They don't need you.

And so I think, unfortunately, you've got to play within the confines of the game.

And it sucks.

I do everything I can to help creators avoid that kind of stuff.

But I'm really sorry to hear that, man.

Yeah.

I tell people not to have the social media platforms as your primary source of income.

Use it as a side thing.
