Nobody is saying what he’s being censored for, and I don’t care to graze videos to find out. If it’s religious in nature, that’s a topic that can (easily) piss people off.

"I interviewed the friend of a girl who had been murdered by her family in an honor killing, that video was banned, for hate speech. I made a video condemning cartoon killings - banned for hate speech. I made a video criticizing the British legal system for helping child traffickers - banned for hate speech. I've made several videos criticizing the persecution of Hindus - those are always fine. I've made several videos criticizing the persecution of Muslims - those are always fine. But I've been repeatedly banned for posting videos of persecution of Christians in places like Pakistan - Youtube just doesn't want me talking about it. [..] Meanwhile if you're a popular youtuber calling for the execution of ex-Muslims, you're fine on youtube <example video shown>. If you're a sheikh, telling your followers to prepare for the future when they'll go door to door, giving people the option to convert, pay protection money, or be murdered, you're fine on Youtube <example video shown>."
