(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Social media’s blatant leftist bent once again displayed a glaring double-standard in how Democrats and Republicans are treated.
YouTube, which is owned by Google, had originally censored a former Bernie Sanders campaign staffer’s post that included videos of both Democrats and Republicans questioning the election results, but then allowed only the Democrat claims on the platform, according to Breitbart.
The videos were made by an independent journalist for TK News, Matt Orfalea, a news outlet that was founded by Left-wing journalist and author Matt Taibbi.
Orfalea explained on his substack that his video with Republicans questioning the election results got censored, while allowing the video of Democrats doing the same thing to remain.
“YouTube says the video violates ‘misinformation policy,’ but again, I never endorsed or advanced the claims, and the title makes clear that they are nothing but ‘Claims.’ Furthermore, virtually every clip was broadcast by mainstream outlets, including CNN, NBC and FOX,” he wrote.
“Why doesn’t YouTube delete their videos too? (Instead, YouTube promotes the corporate networks’ YouTube channels as so-called ‘authoritative sources,’ despite their history of publishing dangerously consequential misinformation, including the lies that led to the Iraq War).’
“Curiously, my other vid [with] only Dem claims of a ‘stolen’ election is still allowed on YT, while the vid that includes Repubs making similar claims isn’t,” he added.
“There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud in either the 2016 or 2020 election, yet challenging the integrity of one election is allowed, but not the other?”
The video that features Democrats shows people like Hillary Clinton saying that the 2016 election was “stolen” and various top Democrats and propagandists from mass media saying that Hillary lost because Russia interfered in the elections.
The video also shows a Change.org petition asking the electoral college to make Clinton the president in 2016. The petition was signed by millions of people
It wasn’t the the only year when Democrats denied the results of the elections. Many people in the party have proclaimed that George W. Bush stole the 2000 and 2004 elections. Democrats also denied the defeat of Stacey Abrams in the Georgia gubernatorial election of 2018.
