It's wild to me that liberals would be ok with this, we really are in uncharted territory for this country. Who would have imagined a rap song could be banned, by an entity closely aligned with a political party, simply because it is critical of a sitting President. Say what you will about conservative leadership, but we did not have anything close to this form of political repression.
But hey, the youth in Germany were all about Hitler because power was on "their side" and "their team".
I believe history will judge this generation harshly

YouTube's refusal to remove a song some employees find racist to people of Asian origin has caused a fracas inside the company, the latest clash in a growing national debate about anti-Asian hate.
Workers at Google's YouTube recently posted on internal message boards to criticize executives who decided against taking down videos featuring the rap song "Meet the Flockers," which debuted in 2014 from recording artist YG. The track, about a burglary, includes lyrics that encourage the targeting of neighborhoods where Chinese people live.
"While we debated this decision at length amongst our policy experts, we made the difficult decision to leave the video up to enforce our policy consistently and avoid setting a precedent that may lead to us having to remove a lot of other music on YouTube," they added in the email, a copy of which was obtained by Bloomberg.
