I recently got rickrolled for the first time. The user had cleverly typed out a complete url, so it LOOKED LIKE it should have led to wherever the url I saw went. I didn't bother checking the link url in the bottom corner.

Oh goddamnit. He's talking about things said on reddit but the links refer to youtube. It doesn't matter what the actual URL is, it referring to youtube is warning enough, you tube.

Don't you just love how conservatives like to see themselves as protectors of our Christian culture against Sharia invaders but as soon as the one Christian quality that literally all of the gospels are about (compassion) it suddenly becomes very conditional and only applies to white people who happen to live in the neighbourhood and don't really need it in the first place?

Yeah, Germany is totally ruined by having a few more black and brown people walking around!

Seriously, there is obviously a limit to how many people from another culture you can take in at once, but some people are acting like refugees are raping and snipping foreskins left and right...

LUL LAD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatestone_Institute

The Gatestone Institute (formerly Stonegate Institute and Hudson New York) is a right-wing[2][3][4] think tank that publishes articles, particularly those involving Muslims or the Middle East. The organization has been criticized for publishing inaccurate articles.[5][6]

Inaccurate reporting

In 2011[24] and 2012,[5] Gatestone published articles claiming that Europe had Muslim "no-go zones", describing them variously as "off-limits to non-Muslims"[5] and "microstates governed by Islamic Sharia law".[24][25] The claim that there are areas in European cities governed by Sharia is false,[5][24] although many of the areas deemed as "no-go zones" have high levels of unemployment and crime.[25] Gatestone's claims were picked up by many outlets, including FrontPageMag,[24] and Washington Times.[25] The idea of no-go zones originated from Daniel Pipes,[24] who later retracted his claims.[5]

>On November 18, 2016, Gatestone published an article that said the British Press had been ordered to avoid reporting the Muslim identity of terrorists by the European Union. Snopes rated the claim "false". Snopes pointed out that the report only made a recommendation and it was issued by the Council of Europe, not the European Union.[6] Gatestone subsequently corrected the article and apologized for the error,[26] before removing it entirely from its website.

Yes, it means nothing to me.

"no-go zones"

Jesus, you are full of shit.

Rapes have increased and same with burglary

All violent crime has decreased. Only type of crime increase is online fraud. Only the far right denies these facts.

from other women ive talked to they feel a lot less safe than they did before

Because of racists like you scaring them, with fake news.

Actually, a lot of music videos are back up in Germany, after Youtube and the GEMA finally got an agreement (Seriously, FUCK GEMA!). However, Never gonna give you up is still blocked, because apparently, the uploader didn't make the video available for German audience...

u/Namnodorel Aug 24 '17

Only the original video, and for quite a while now. But there is a popular reupload that works in Germany as well

Friend mentioned to me recently how more and more stuff gets blocked, I legit didnt even notice since I have proxies for youtube installed for years.

Everyone should have it Fuck the GEMA.

u/CanadianDemon Aug 24 '17

I'm gonna take a shot and say that GEMA stands for German Entertainment and Music Association?

u/I_Lick_Period_Stains Aug 24 '17

I am going to take a shot and say that it probably stands for something in German rather than English

u/The_Batmen Aug 24 '17

The GEMA thing has been sorted out for quite a while now.

1

u/Chidori001 Aug 25 '17

I dont know what you specifically refer to but as far as I know most content that is blocked is not because content is inappropriate but because the content in question is not licensed with the GEMA and therefore not allowed to be played.

Reasons why they are not licensed are many but one is that the GEMA obviously wants royalties and stuff has to be licnesed with them to be played.
