@@sirjohng1 I think they are, yes. The 'cliub' of people who were warned not to take it was far smaller than everyone imagined. Look at Nadal and the UK royals...
So many comments lately about 1984, I decided to read it. It's shocking how much it's being used as the handbook for what's going on. The never-ending wars, the Ministry of Truth, and Memory holing are blueprints for the tyranny. Truly amazing to read and relate to today.
Indeed, it *was* a warning of how those with extreme insecurities coupled with nefarious motivations would make attempts to 'control' those who wanna go about their dailies in freedom, peace and love whilst also being self aware enough to know not everyone in positions of power has other peolkes best wishes at heart...
Everything they do to constrict independent thought and conversations further highlights their desperation for total control. Keep free wheeling Geoff!
As a kid, I was brought up, probably like many many others "NOT TO TELL LIES." In these dreadful, dreadful times that we now find ourselves, "TELL LIES" or you will be silenced/cancelled, call it what you will, would seem to be the norm. I am certainly glad I was born when I was and have enjoyed "freedom" so to speak, I shudder to think where this is going next! Keep going Geoff and your one word answer "YES" when talking to Jeremy Kyle, was simply brilliant, because it was TRUE!
These aren’t dreadful times they are amazing times when humanity finally wakes up and decides we don’t want to live in this corrupt world. Bring it on.
RU-vid "please disable ad-block as the ads support your favourite creators", also RU-vid "We have demonitised your favourite creators because... reasons". Keep up the good work Geoff.
You have been noticed Geoff. Once you appeared on 'TV' you became fair game. There is an inconvenient truth out there and it needs to be supressed at all costs.
What a clever way to shut down undesirable discussion, first incentivise people to go full time into "content creation" and then pull the rug if they post something undesirable. I suppose corporate media works much the same, that the rug gets pulled from under the feet of the "journalists" if they "misbehave" :D
That's been the plan all along - control the media, including social media... If you want easy money, obey your paymaster. Many creators walked away from you tube ages for this reason - there are other platforms...
@@pperrinuk Indeed. Its their platform and they can decide whatever they like Its not like we individuals own the internet just because we put things on it
Apparently it is the 'Advertisers' who don't like that video; in my 70+ years on this plane censorship has ALWAYS been present in one form or another with good old MONEY being mostly the cause, not truth nor morality.
To be honest. Clarkson has said ..articulated..that nagging feeling many have had when stepping into a modern car( especially ev).. He has boiled it down to a simple phrase..
When you are a small commentator reaching just a few people, they don't bother with you. This is a sign that you are making an impact in a bigger way to a bigger audience, raising bigger issues. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
If enough of the bigger content creators would move to another platform, it wouldn't be long before they changed their tune. We keep moaning about everything they do, but we do nothing.
I agree Sean but it's because YT have a virtual stranglehold on monetised video content. Rumble, Odysee and Bitchute just can't compete and they are vilified by all the same bad actors/factcheckers etc so numbers are proportionately low.
Then the government will ban that alternative video platform, it's already on their agenda with the so-called Online Safety Act. The French, Brazilian and Russian governments have already done it.
Thank you, Geoff. I have just checked and the "bell" has changed to none 😠, this has now gone back to "all" - will start to check this regularly. You seemed to be a bit down in this one, I don't blame you - I hope you will bounce back as usual, soon. Please keep up the excellent work, the truth will out.
Yes it's designed to be vague , this style of running social media platforms was trialled heavily in 2016 to 2018 using the "far right" as guinea pigs.. the end result being totally banned from mainstream platforms and sidelined into internet ghettos like odyssey
I often think you talk shit Geoff, but that doesn't mean i think you shouldn't be allowed to talk shit, or that you shouldn't get paid for talking shit. We all have the right to talk shit, and even if you do talk shit sometimes it's still entertaining.
I watched the last of the Grand tour with a sense of sadness. The end of a era, the end of the motoring show entertainment, the end of a classic trio, i brought up my eldest daughter watching top gear, then the Grand tour. She continued to watch the Grand tour after leaving home.
@@cbdp the world is fun on favours, and those behind the scenes will always push to get the best favours in return Just look at Tony B Liar worming his way through life
Been happening to the "far right" since 2016 they were the guinea pigs.. first they came for the far right but I did not speak out because I was not one of them!
Whilst I don’t agree with everything you say, I’ve been finding RU-vid has become so prissy about so much that I’m starting to question its validity. Censorship on here is really starting to become overboard and I empathise with your frustration.
That is very true. 😊 They hide a lot of my posts, ban others. 😭 I don't agree with the current diet, the stick poked in the body, evs. I agree the Climate has been changing since we had a climate to change. I don't use bad language not even initials WT, or call a man a WO, man. U T algorithm really doesn't like me. I'm an 😇 Won't even allow me into live chat at times.👹 Can't think why.😇😇😅😅. They still want me to buy a subscription to the tube.😮😮
Mate I'm fully behind you and you spreading the info and fun videos you make. Im also able to make my own decisions and I say if you want to advertise something you feel is worth a mention go for it. Have you got a buy me a coffee or beer thing I'll contribute when I can. Keep it up mate love the content 👍.
Does anyone else have their comments furtively removed...?....A response to a comment you KNOW you left, magically disappears a day or so later...?....Anyone else?...🤔😳🙄🇬🇧 In fact multiple comments in a large thread....just gone..?
Yes and I regularly have to sit on the naughty chair and can’t post for a day or two. I’m used to it, I was thrown off of Twitter back in 2017 before most people were awake.
Some of mine disappeared immediately I'm on the algorithm blacklist. A few might reappear 10 minutes later but not many. I never use bad language or call people horrible names, unlike some posts I've had directed at me.
Yes many times, I get fed up with it, I even reply to them and ask for feedback , but I never get it Also it says click here to see your comnents And nothing but a blank screen, it's done by AI , bunch of snowflakes Up their bums
It's becoming a scary world when you can't freely express an opinion, especially one that's actually correct ! Very worrying . Thanks for the videos, keep it up 👍
This is a good example as to why no one should rely on Google / RU-vid / Etsy / Amazon / eBay... etc, for their income. These companies have too much control on your output, whether it be a video, or a product you are selling.
Ignore any complaints about running inserted ads, you're more than entitled to and you deserve to be able to. More than that, we (your viewers) trust you. That's worth more than any ad you can run, we know that if you're going to endorse something, you genuinely believe in it and you're not being bought.
Naughty Geoff, criticising the propaganda...sorry, I mean criticising the approved version of truth that corporate interests insist we must obey. If YT keep on pursuing this policy we might as well give them up and switch to certain other services.
I got comment removed from the caravan and motorhome club online chat forum when a member was discussing the down side of EV's towing caravans, all I said was careful you will upset the EVaneglists...
The zealots really do hate contrarian opinions. Another reason the TG trio were wise to wind it up when they did. And that’d be a Yes! to the Hot Wheels video.
Oh please Geoff “Don’t do an E-Bike review” !! …. I have a camper van and all the van channels I subscribe to are littered with E- Bike reviews. I don’t have a problem with them, in fact would love one. But right now we are all just fatigued by them and certainly don’t need a car channel advertising them as well!!
I wonder if it has anything to do with every other advert on YT being for an EV? The revenue YT receives from manufacturers may have some sway in their decision making?
Keep video going mate The tube is shit I had multiple videos with only radio songs playing in background I didn’t even notice but had to delete And the censorship and ai shit on this platform is becoming crazy But what annoys me most is the flash advertisements that’s happening on utube
Geoff, how about covering the state of the Campervan market? Lots have overpaid for sub standard camper vans. Many more likely to buy a camper van than a classic car.
Time to buy another Daily Telegraph! Battery electric vehicle sales dropped by 68.8pc in Europe’s largest economy compared to last year. France, Europe’s second biggest car market, recorded a 33.1pc drop in sales. Overall, registrations of battery-electric cars dropped by 43.9pc across Europe to 92,627 in August, down from 165,204 last year. From January to August, 902,011 new battery-electric cars were registered, representing 12.6pc of the market. Plug-in hybrid car registrations also saw a decrease last month of 22.3pc, with declines recorded in all their major markets.
Pray tell me who actually listens to ads………I either fast forward them or look at the sky( my ceiling) or blah blah blah ……..definitely Do Not listen, I’m sorry Geoff I know this is how you make your living but in this day and age this is an unnecessary evil, it just means that they’ve got you by the short and curlies as you and lots of others have found to your cost.
Yes make a video about your toy cars and the display case pls. Advertise anything you like for me. We don’t have to buy and easily switch off. I don’t know why people whinge about it. Fill ya boots 👍🏻😂
Don't lose your spirit Geoff. The video on question was really good. Maybe the viewers would have been less harsh if the ad wasn't for a powdered energy drink. A Battery charger review etc may have aised less eyebrows. Keep up the good work.
I got a small Chinees diesel heater for the shed. It doesn't heat the shed up a lot but it does make the difference between not wanting to go to the shed to work on the car, and getting on with it in a reasonable fashion. Unfortunately I've been saying to my son how car culture is rapidly dying.. We still do some gravel rally events with our car, but the entry field has fallen of so bad that events are now being cancelled, dew to lack of numbers. Car shows are like a geriatric outing, with there being nearly as many mobility scooters as cars. I used to watch Johnny Smith 's Barn Finds, but then he got all EVanglistic, so I left him a comment, stating my views and why I would no longer be watching his videos ( As I thought he might like so feed back ) Surprisingly he replied, and it was as polite as the algorithm would allow, with out getting taken down...But there was now doubt which side of the fence he was proudly sitting/shouting from...
