Has anyone met a vegan that wasn't crazy or very morally impaired somehow? B12 vitamins are important, folks.

That's too bad. I could have given a recipe for gluten-free hat with tide pods.

Jesus Christ I’m not fucking justifying it.

They work with a ton of people. A ton of people = some are crazy. Make a decision that affects a crazy someone’s livelihood and they may do some crazy shit.

This is exacerbated by the fact that they never explain shit to anyone.

There is also a double standard that the shooter pointed out that is absolutely true. Miley Cyrus can swing on a wrecking ball literally naked but if she posts a risqué work out video she gets it put on a restricted list.

If you’re an organization that touches many many people, shit Like this happens.

What’s in the fuckig EULA doesn’t matter if you’re trying to avoid being shot by a crazy person.

There’s a message you should expand to gun free zones and weapon bans.

Criminals don’t give a fuck about your EULA.

Her workout wasn't even risqué. She might have been a homicidal vegan, but I have not seen any evidence that she tried to play YouTube fitness thot.

I’m against murder, and what she did isn’t justified. But she WAS justified in feeling aggrieved.

It’s the same reason I’m not a prick if I need to let someone go. I can be within my rights all day and it don’t mean shit if he comes back and puts a bullet in my head.

Likelihood of that happening in my place of work is very low. But if I dealt with the bazillion YouTube creators out there, my risk of pissing off a homicidal crazy person increases. And it increases further if my decisions are perceived as arbitrary. It doesn’t matter how lawful or justified my decisions are if someone shows up with a gun.

I think the fact she published her videos in Farsi as well was a factor. YouTube probably wanted to protect Muslim girls from improper content.

Yes, I've met plenty. I have also met Germans who aren't totalitarian psychos. Stop generalising Otern.

If that's what happened, and it is confirmed and gets out into the public, Google is going to eat massive crow.
