Hate speech is ultimately subjective. At the end of the day, someone is going to get offended if you post about controversial subjects. I mainly joined this platform because I thought it was resistant to censorship but very quickly I realized that's not the case at all. Here, it seems like everything is just like outside. In other words, money talks. The more money you have, the more influence!

i figured it was subjective, that's why i brought it up
There is only indirect censorship your posts are still visible. I dont think censorship is a issue
Censorship is not just about whether something is visible or not(although the flagging does make negative posts invisible and it requires an extra click to make it visible again). Censorship is a lot more than that. Suppressing the sources of income and revenue of content creators you don't like is the most effective way of censorship right now on YouTube. They simply do not allow you to monetize your video if the content is controversial. The abuse of the flag button here can lead to exactly the same thing that's happening on YouTube...
@msg768, agreed, the YouTube thing is a problem. YouTube chooses, also, what to put on the trending list as well. Many left and went to http://Vid.Me
