Yesterday I had a strike from YouTube disabling me from streaming for three months. I have appealed against the strike, but am not particularly hopeful.
What did I say?
The background is given at http://thevoiceofreason-ann.blogspot.com/2018/09/hitlers-category-mistake.html
It would appear that I was given a strike simply for having Hitler in the title of the video ie "Hitler's category error".
I was pointing out that the behaviour he attributed to Jews was in fact shared by anyone who refuses to admit he or she has lost the argument and that we have all of us done this at some time in our lives, including me and my mother.
I was not saying "Hitler was right about the Jews", I was in fact saying Hitler attributed to Jews behaviour that is common to all of us. While I was still editing the description under the video explaining this, I discovered I could no longer post because the video had been removed. This happened within one hour of posting.
If you are Jewish with a YouTube channel that you never use and don't mind getting a strike - it just means you cannot stream for three months on your channel- it would be much appreciated if you would read the following, from towards the end of Chapter 2 Years of Suffering and Studying in Vienna Mein Kampf:
In the description of your video, please post:
Before Hitler was going on about Jews in that chapter, he was complaining about his fellow workmen but is rather more indulgent and forgiving of their foibles.
BEST CASE SCENARIO
1. Yoram Hazony whose book The Virtue of Nationalism is out and who has a YouTube channel will be prepared to do this. That would certainly make the gentile nationalist of the West sit up and take notice of him and perhaps buy his book.
2. Melanie Phillips who is a Trump supporter and Brexiteer may wish to open a YouTube account and do exactly the same thing to test the waters her end.
Please. Our free speech is also your free speech.
The diversity of the races who do support support Trump and want to leave the EU will be our strength. (In the UK, Muslim-majority areas of Birmingham, Bradford and Luton voted to leave.)

At the outset they [the Marxists] counted upon the stupidity of their opponents; but when they got so entangled that they could not find a way out they played the trick of acting as innocent simpletons. Should they fail, in spite of their tricks to logic, they acted as if they could not under the counter arguments and bolted away to another field of discussion. They would lay down truisms and platitudes; and, if you accepted these, then they were applied to other problems and matters of an essentially different nature from the original theme. If you faced them with this point, they would escape again, and you could not bring them to make any precise statement. Whenever one tried to get a firm grip on any of these apostles one's hand grasped only jelly and slime which slipped through the fingers and combined again into a sold mass a moment afterwards. If your adversary felt forced to given in to your argument, on account of observers present, and if you then thought that at last you had gained ground, a surprise was in store for you on the following day. He would be utterly oblivious to what had happened the day before, and he would start once again by repeating his former absurdities, as if nothing had happened. Should you become indignant and remind him of yesterday's defeat, he pretended astonishment and could not remember anything, except that on the previous day he had proved that his statements were correct. Sometimes I was dumbfounded. I do not know what amazed me more - the abundance of their privilege or the artful way in which they dressed up their falsehoods. I gradually came to hate them.
In the description of your video, please post:
A category mistake (or category error) is a logical fallacy that occurs when a speaker (knowingly or not) confuses the properties of the whole with the properties of a part. It contains the fallacy of composition (assuming the whole has the properties of the part) and the fallacy of division (assuming the part has the properties of the whole).
It is an imprecision fallacy and an informal fallacy.
Examples:
- Confusing (knowingly or not) the Muslim immigrants in their country whom they hate with a book they will never read ie the Koran.
- Confusing (knowingly or not) Muslim immigrants in their country whom they hate with the terrorists that they fear who have been provoked by the imperialistic foreign policy of their governments.
- Confusing (knowingly or not) the consequence of following clear instructions badly or not at all with the correctness of the instruction. (Is your doctor a bad doctor if you do not follow his orders? Is your satnav faulty if you ignore its directions? Is your map wrong if you misread it?)
- Confusing (knowingly or not) the symptoms ie immigrants with the disease ie feminism.
The title of the video should be "Hitler's Category Error".

That's it, basically, because that was all I did, and I got a strike.
If you get a strike, it means the following:
- You don't enjoy Jewish privilege.
- There could be an algorithm that automatically flags any video which mentions Hitler or the Nazis.
If you don't get a strike, it could mean the following:
- You do enjoy Jewish privilege.
- No one is trying to get you for hate speech the way they are trying to get me.
- YouTube has revised its policies on its draconian censorship on discussion of the causes and consequences of WW2 as well as the discussion of continuing imperialistic wars in Muslim lands that provoke Muslim terrorism against both Jew and gentile in the West.
Before Hitler was going on about Jews in that chapter, he was complaining about his fellow workmen but is rather more indulgent and forgiving of their foibles.
In my relations with my fellow workmen I was often astonished to find how easily and often they changed their opinions on the same questions, sometimes within a few days and sometimes within the course of a few hours. I found it difficult to understand how men who always had reasonable ideas when they spoke as individuals with one another suddenly lost this reasonableness the moment they acted in the mass. That phenomenon often tempted one almost to despair. I used to dispute with them for hours and when I succeeded in bringing them to what I considered a reasonable way of thinking I rejoiced at my success. But next day I would find that it had been all in vain. It was saddening to think that I had to begin it all over again. Like a pendulum in its eternal sway, they would fall back into their absurd opinions.
