A video too controversial for YouTube
A bonus newsletter. My history with YouTube censorship, and the John Hamer video going to Community Members only.
Hi everyone,
Thank you for subscribing to my newsletter, and for supporting my work at YouTube.com/@richdoespolitics, YouTube.com/@richdoesclips and youtube.com/@richdoesmore.
This is a bonus newsletter about a video that I recently recorded and that we now think is too controversial to post on YouTube.
Won't Get Caught Again!
I have a past with YouTube censorship.
I started my YouTube channel in April 2017. It was focused purely on cryptocurrencies. My channel grew and grew during the bull run later that year, and my future as a successful vlogger seemed assured. My channel had quickly grown to 25,500 subscribers. Then in June 2018 YouTube deleted about 80 of my videos on the grounds that I had violated their community guidelines. Another 80 were deleted in December of that year. I appealed every single deletion and lost every single appeal. I still have no idea what my specific violation was. YouTube never made it clear.
My channel started shrinking, and my views dropped and have never recovered. I have had a couple of videos deleted since, mostly because I am not a photosynthesis denier. Those videos were controversial. Understandably, I am wary of censorship and have posted videos about climate change and COVID etc on Odysee, Rumble, and Bitchute.
In November last year, at my son’s insistence, we created the Rich Does Politics channel, which, thanks to you, is growing steadily. I have not had any videos censored, although one did get demonetised for reasons I cannot remember right now. Apart from that, the algorithm has been kind to the new channel.
John Hamer is a British author and historian. He is the author of “Falsification of History” and the “Falsification of Science”. You can find his work here – https://falsificationofhistory.co.uk
I have posted five videos with him to date. You can find his playlist here – https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRNd2LEWA4jOGj2ooC_wLjob5GzVn0xcf
He and I recently recorded a video on the Kalergi Plan. This is a globalist plan to import millions of people from the Global South into Europe, Britain, and Ireland. We have decided that despite YouTube relaxing its censorship policy in general, this video is too controversial for YouTube. We are offering it to our Community Members as an exclusive preview special.
This video will be posted to the Community Group on Friday 21st August 2026.
If you want to see this video early, as well as other videos that we will be posting only to the Community, please sign up here to become a Community Member.
Become a Community MemberAs an additional offer, if you are in Britain you can get a 10% discount on John’s book: “The Falsification of History” using the discount code RICHDOESPOLITICS if you order from John’s website: https://falsificationofhistory.co.uk
