    Default YouTube REVERSES policy — will now allow election fraud claims



    YouTube has announced a reversal of its "election integrity" policy, stating that it will now leave up content that makes claims of fraud, errors, or glitches in elections, including the much-debated 2020 presidential election and previous US elections.

    The company confirmed this decision to Axios on Friday, emphasizing that maintaining the policy may hinder political speech without effectively reducing the risk of real-world harm or violence.

    The policy was initially established by YouTube in December 2020, after the much contested 2020 election. However, with the changed landscape and the 2024 campaigns well underway, the company acknowledged the need to reevaluate the effects of the policy.

    During a recent CNN town hall, Trump said that he would suspend talk about election fraud ... unless he sees election fraud.

    "Two years, tens of thousands of video removals, and one election cycle later, we recognized it was time to reevaluate the effects of this policy in today's changed landscape," a statement from YouTube said.

    "With that in mind, and with 2024 campaigns well underway, we will stop removing content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches occurred in the 2020 and other past US Presidential elections."

    "The rest of our election misinformation policies remain in place, including those that disallow content aiming to mislead voters about the time, place, means, or eligibility requirements for voting; false claims that could materially discourage voting, including those disputing the validity of voting by mail; and content that encourages others to interfere with democratic processes," the statement continued.

    Although YouTube stated that it had carefully deliberated this change, it did not provide specific examples of the factors or instances considered in making the determination. The platform plans to release more details about its approach to the 2024 election in the coming months.

    The revised policy, which takes effect immediately, does not affect YouTube's other rules concerning "misinformation." Content that misleads voters about voting requirements, discourages voting, or incites interference with democratic processes will continue to be subject to removal.

    As Trump was told, the election was fair and honest. That was not good enough for him, so he asked for more recounts than anyone ever had. He got them. Then he went to court over 60 times and lost them all because he could produce no evidence. That is how you prove an election is fair.
    So Trump asked secretaries of state to cheat and make him the winner.

    Youtube is only wanting people to see how ridiculous these silly claims are that our elections are rigged- and, of course, exposing the IDIOTS THAT ARE CLAIMING SUCH THINGS! I mean, many of these IDIOTS are running for office this time around.

    You have to expose the idiots for what they are, so that people can make better informed decisions come election time.

    I agree with YOUTUBE- Let them talk! Let's give them something to really talk about! Let's just go and whoop their crybaby asses all over again!

    KUDOS YOUTUBE!

    My favorite pastime these days. YEEEEEHAWWWWW!
