    @rweingarten @TerryMcAuliffe @YouTube Only awful cowards hide behind children, claiming to care. You run counter to what is good for children. You have failed kids & parents & taxpayers - FACT - US spends the most while the outcome is among the worst on the globe. #SchoolChoice NOW

    @Microsoft Originally I thought the system stutter was me because when I installed #BlackOps4 I ended up with a stutter, don't be scared of Evil crop, help me find that guy on @youtube, he's making a joke with Evil shirt on and was talking about how #CallofDuty4 can mess #bios

  • WildFilmCompany Primitive Planet (@WildFilmCompany) reported

    @THeodoreJay11 @YouTube Anything a kid does outside (when they should be inside playing video games and watching YT ads) is considered a safety issue to YouTube. Kids outside = less revenue for them.

  • Blackbird_2 Bob Dunkin (@Blackbird_2) reported

    Hey @YouTube I don't know what kind of algorithms you're using...but I certainly don't need a "Experiencing Problems" popup...when I AM THE ONE PAUSING THE VIDEO! Please pay someone to add an extra line in the programming...

  • ranger_zorro Zorro Hector Ranger (@ranger_zorro) reported

    @rweingarten @TerryMcAuliffe @YouTube If Weingarten is for McAullife then without a doubt you must vote the other way. RW is a deceitful liar and a pox upon our nation. RW and TM are peas in a pod ... the worst among us ...

  • jimmyiiconic jimmyiiconic (@jimmyiiconic) reported

    @rweingarten @TerryMcAuliffe @YouTube Considering he covered up tape in schools. No he’s a terrible choice and person, kinda like you are

  • Michael32201634 SloppySteal (@Michael32201634) reported

    @AsaHutchinson @MeetThePress @YouTube have you been hit with the stupid stick? if you don't fix the steal if 2020 elections are over forever in this country, everyone watched it get stolen, watched votes subtracted on live tv and given to Biden. if you don't acknowledge and fix 2020 then your done for!

  • Analleakage6 Analleakage (@Analleakage6) reported

    @rweingarten @TerryMcAuliffe @YouTube You are obviously a victim of our broken public “education” system…. Terry and his children all went to PRIVATE schools because they know how bad public teachers do their job…

  • mouseketeer1283 Deborah Brown (@mouseketeer1283) reported

    @glennkirschner2 @YouTube He suddenly has a medical issue and needs hospitalization

  • RayBill2 Beta Ray Bill (@RayBill2) reported

    @ImranMi97894746 @YouTube Yes. I think he'll have the ring rust gone & be back at his usual Mikey form. If I was him, I'd fight a lower tier southpaw fighter first to fix the issues, then rematch Martin who early on (rounds 1-4) didn't want to stand & exchange at all.

  • ShortyBvibez8 $hortyB (@ShortyBvibez8) reported

    How the fk do u get the shorts and stories on everything to stop showing disgusting photos it's gross @Facebook @YouTube every picture is the most spine cringy things it's disgusting #help #disgusting #Photos I unfollow I delete nothing is helping

  • A5phyxiati0n Michael Whitcher (@A5phyxiati0n) reported

    BRUH!! When will @YouTube stop putting ads on my videos every 2:50 seconds 🙃 First the scuffed algorith, Second the awful forced lower quality on my phone and now this 🙃

  • d_iadarola Henry Wallace's Vengeance (@d_iadarola) reported

    @allan_crawshaw @GayDifferent @YouTube Yes! This is the biggest problem. If the economy collapses, it is a manufactured collapse. Manufactured by billionaires, bankers, and corporate leaders that make subtle changes to lending and the supply chain to cause a collapse. Why, they don't want to pay more taxes...

    @rweingarten @TerryMcAuliffe @YouTube You are the worst thing ever to happen to public education. I'll happily vote for whoever you don't endorse.

  • Tertoms1 Tertoms (@Tertoms1) reported

    @Crim_Ruwan @YouTube He's right, it's ridiculous today the amount of hoops you have to jump through when dealing with a bank and if they're draughting a law for the entire country to deal with a specific problem in a minority community his second point isn't wrong either.

  • gxuosi g➖ (@gxuosi) reported

    the worst thing besides not being able to actually block the accounts from replying to comments is that when you try to report them you get flagged for abusing the report system. i wouldn't be mass reporting porn bots if @YouTube handled the situation themselves.

  • CallmeSeddz CallmeSeddz (@CallmeSeddz) reported

    I need to adress a very big issue within the @youtube platform, I have been using social media for a while now to grow my business however something as simple as getting hacked is enough to make them suspend my account that I used only to grow my business.

  • surf_the_web Tial (@surf_the_web) reported

    @lynkfox @davefarley77 @YouTube Devs tend to not care about agile development as a project management as a process, and PMO tends to see agile development as a set of rituals that they think will make their gantt chart work better. And customers tend to be absent. So a failed set of rituals it is.

  • verpevo 🚳 (@verpevo) reported

    @BinhDang411 @YouTube i'll allow a god awful "inspirational" quote this one time, because youtube shorts is worse

  • hgfromrgv hector gonzalez (@hgfromrgv) reported
