    @didyouknowgamin With the amount of money @YouTube must make, you would think they would invest in a decent complaints division. This should be a 5 minute fix, max! Hope you get it back soon.

    @oneraceofearth @YouTube Truth wins in the end one way or another. Censorship is always bad for business in the long run. In many ways @YouTube is their own worst enemy.

    @KimmyFalconer @RayJime99416753 @YouTube Typical bam behavior, he begs me to make this place a recording studio. I work my *** off and now It’s now one of the best studios in America, he shows up to try and ruin it, and denies begging me to make it a recording studio. He also did this to my mom during the airBnB days.

    @TheSirRobotto @ABridgen @YouTube 3/ The government tested the waters with the care workers first, and when 40,000 walked they realised they'd have a problem and they backtracked and didn't mandate them for nurses/doctors, they were pressured before hand though. 100,000 NHS staff SAID NO. Look up the protests.
