YouTube FREE SPEECH Limitation DANGEROUS & a testimony to Genius of having a REPUBLIC & not a true Democracy?

If you didn't know - Google/Youtube will BLOCK comments after you post them. This is not a conspiracy theory. I've checked it with multiple accounts. I am guessing that if enough people hit the thumbs down on your comments then Google/Youtube will block those comments from being seen by other users. YOU will still see your comments but nobody else will. So they trick you in this way and do not reveal that your comments are in fact hidden to the rest of the public.

I have tested this myself all day today. As an example I went to the new wretched Beyonce video. And I began leaving comments about Jesus and the fact that Beyonce claims to be a Christian ( she has always claimed this publicly ) yet she is posting these vile and nearly pornographic videos for the world to see.

So i left comments about her Christianity and asking people what they thought about Jesus in consideration of the video. And I noticed I did not get any replies. Then I signed out of that name and signed in using a different name and looked for my comments and they were not showing. I'm guessing there are so many watching her new video and giving my comments thumbs down that youtube is hiding my comments. But when I sign back in with the original name the comments are showing again.

And it got me to thinking about about true Democracy vs. a Republic. One of the dangers of a true Democracy is the danger of MOB rule. Just because the MAJORITY is in favor of something does not make it good and right. The idea of a Republic is such that representatives are elected so that they represent masses of people. It can stave off the MOB RULE mentality.

So do you see the Danger of what google has done? They have STIFLED the discussion because the MOB is ruling. The minority no longer has a voice. The internet is LARGELY dominated by anti-Christian users and so the discussion is not a valid discussion when everyone's voice is not allowed to be heard. We have reached a very DANGEROUS time in this world.

Just as we have been warned about. What say you?

    YouTube is a private company owned by Google. They have every right to censor whoever tries to post on their site. Furthermore, you are complaining because nobody likes your comments and thus your comments are not seen. If 1,000s of people comment on a YouTube video you cannot realistically expect every comment to be seen by every viewer of the video. What metric should YouTube use to display comments to viewers? The most common sense metric is that popular comments should be displayed and this is what they do. So if your comment is not popular (i.e. doesn't get thumbs up) it's not going to be displayed.

    I have commented on videos many times with, what I feel, is a good comment. However, others don't feel it's good enough to thumbs up so it doesn't appear in the "top comments". Furthermore, if it's a popular video, then I cannot even find my post in the "newest comments" because 100s or 1,000s of people have posted since I posted my comment (say yesterday). This is to be expected and there is no way for google to somehow determine what constitutes a "good comment" since, presumably, every commenter thinks their post is "good"--surely, no matter what algorithm you choose, some will feel they are being suppressed or censored.

    Anyone who takes the internet as completely 'true' and doesn't realise that propeganda of various forms and persuasions is all over the net, is living in the cloud.

    As for it being against one group - no, it's against all groups that are not 'your' group.

    people see relevant discussion on youtube.when you login youtube will show you your comments and the replies.when you logout you don't see your comments because no one replied or is discussing/intrested in your comments,so they quickely disappear from the front page.
