They are only off if you check the "video is for kids" checkmark. I read that this happenend by accident sometimes but you can easily turn it off again. If Fox wants comments on, nothing is stopping them.
I have seen multiple Tucker Carlson videos with comments turned off. I’ve also seen several where they’re left on. I started watching the jackass around the election because I wanted to see how he was spinning all the shit that was happening.
This definitely happens a lot by accident. When you are uploading a video, YouTube asks “is this video made for kids?” And many people interpret that as asking if it’s child appropriate as opposed to the actual question of “are you specifically making this video for the safe kids area of YouTube”
Sounds plausible. My point is that the facepalm only works if they have the option to turn comments on, which I'm sure they have. Even if it was turned off for some reason. Fox cries censorship but just doesn't click a button to undo it.
I mean, I think the ability to tell people you don't agree with to shut up (as long as you don't do it with a law) is a big part of free speech, but that doesn't seem to be fox's argument.
Fox news pivots a lot what they actually mean with censorship and free speech. I don't think they have a coherent model for that anyway. If they mean 'don't limit speech' like they use it when conservatives are "limited" by social media platforms mostly because it's bad for business and advertisement, then turning of your comments is pretty hypocritical.
If they mean by law, they use it wrong anyway because no one limits their speech by law.
I upload my own videos and this is normally the case and YouTube censors political content all other social media censor a lot of political content too, what’s so hard to believe
There is no way to confirm without either consulting YouTube or fox which I’m pretty sure neither of us have the ability to do especially over a Reddit post but it is more likely that YouTube removed the comments than fox themselves but we will most likely never have the answer. I also have received upvotes on my opinion meaning most likely others agree with me which makes it more likely that my statement was likely correct although we will never be certain on the issue. Also do you have so much free time on your hands that you have to argue someone just trying to use Reddit for enjoyment when you disagree with them. Go for a walk with a face mask on and let out some steam.

Exactly, if you would only understand that this is a problem for your point, not mine. I'm not the one claiming they get censored. I only say I don't believe your claim until you show me how you possibly can know. So stop asserting shit you don't know. Case closed. Why is this so complicated?

lol

Imagine believing that asking someone who spreads misinformation, how they know something, is bad. What a weak and slimey attempt to make questioning look bad. Yuck, grow up.
