Kanye West’s 10 Best Tweets & What We Think They Mean | What’s Trending Lists
1). The decision in the baker’s case wasn’t based on his refusal of baking a cake for the gay couple, but that the lower courts discriminated against him. That’s why it doesn’t set precedent for future cases where people refuse service against gay couples.
2). Why couldn’t YouTube have immediately screened the ad content?!? They seem to screen our video content quickly enough to determine if they violate their ToS overnight. It shouldn’t have taken them all month to remove the ads! I’m pretty disgusted that they even allowed the ads to be placed on their platform, at all! I support the LGBTQ+ community and don’t want those ads on my videos, either!
It’s typical cooperate lip service with very little substance, if any, to back it up. I say turn up the heat on YouTube and let them know that a few tweets is not enough. We demand full support and representation on their platform not hypocritical platitudes.
I’m all for YouTube being called out for this, but I would like to leave a “meta” comment: You’re a great host, Martine! You really mean what you’re saying and it doesn’t feel automatic or scripted at all. A very entertaining video to watch!
What about the “white male priviledged” community? The ones who are responsible for the freedoms that are afforded all AMERICANS? LBGTQDFMAWW… what the fucking ever…
Work, if you’re able… contribute, if you can… provide, or shut the FUCK UP!
And.. I’m not a prude, but I will not bake a cake that depicts boobs, pussys or dicks. Or any other content that would comprise my chosen values. PERIOD.
Who cares about shit like that. People over react it’s there website don’t like it get your gay ass out of it.
Being part of the community myself, it’s pretty scandalous to hear. Good thing I’m not monetized… yet.
Destiny Gamer yet… more like never.
As a gay man all I can say is if I don’t have to buy from them then they don’t have to sell to me and I would rather take by business elsewhere.
I’m a gay guy that will never agree with suing someone that refused to make a bouquet. Just find another florist, just find another baker, stop being so petty about it
Kohl Kovet not the point of the video but I agree. I’d prefer if racist and homophobic establishments to be upfront so I can avoid them
The people that run this are so narrow minded
man i miss my flannel shirts.
