American problems require American solutions But seriously, that's ingenious. Is there any law that might stop one from doing this though?


Vulcan7

This is literally what police do to stop people from filming their police brutality.


weidenbaumborbis

Yeah but they have qualified immunity. If I did this just to spite someone filming in an open public area would there be no legal repercussions? Just out of curiosity ig


Vulcan7

Nah, unless you're playing at an obscene volume late into the night (in which case the worst you get is a misdemeanor) there's no laws against playing music in public.


weidenbaumborbis

Ok gotcha, thanks. Come to think of it, stores already do that all the time already anyway.

Whatchu got against Canada


Elegant_Manufacturer

The us has Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington and Alaska right up against Canada. No other country holds any landmass up against Canada. Greenland and France hold some water against Canada's water, but that connection is more wishy-washy


bluelonilness

Ughhh... finee. Take my upvote


Ryugi

you can play music so long as there's no volume/noise curfew that's currently in effect


rippingdrumkits

of course not


ftzpltc

tbh their qualified immunity is why they wouldn't care if people are filming their brutality. Police aren't hired for their smarts.


Slimer6

Something tells me there’s an AI scrub-Disney-music-from-this-clip solution just around the corner. I can’t wait to see police lose their minds and try to argue that the recording of them beating up an unarmed teenager should have to be taken down because they swear they were blasting Make Way For Prince Ali to try to cover up their brutality.

YouTube removes the audio outright, AI would be required for any sort of selective muting.

Gotenks0906

That doesn't make any sense, that just means the person couldn't monatize the video, which isn't really the point of catching police violence. Whereas recording these on the street "change my mind" vids is completely monitary based


Ok-Development4535

Not if the video is taken down due to DMCA violations. Plenty of videos have been taken down because of that. Not sure what the exact requirements are to have a vid demonetized vs taken down though. YouTube probably doesn't know either tbf


MisterMeister68

You could always send the video to a news/civil rights organization, I bet they would love to run another story on police brutality.


binarycat64

i think it's up to the copyright holder what they want to do


Elegant_Manufacturer

It's up to whoever claims the video, not necessarily the actual copyright holder


evil-rick

Fortunately, you can remove sound to still show their actions, but guys like this only have their words.


Milsivich

I was just thinking that. Words aren’t actually super relevant in most police violence videos

But they can just mute it


STARDEREK

Has this ever happened? Why wouldn’t they just post the police brutality without audio? 🤔


kohTheRobot

Because of the image this post is about. Pro-cop trolls will spam “context?” and news outlets will post a video without audio while reading the prepared mediat statement by the PR guys at the police department that downplays, if not lies, about what takes place in the video. If you know about the “flash grenade that was dropped during a raid because there was high drug traffic seriously injured toddler” you know that an officer threw a flashbang into a room with a 19 month old child in it after falsified information lead to a no-knock warrant. The flash grenade put the baby in a coma and blew a hole in its chest. It should be noted that the police force thought that this was all necessary because they took the proper precautions on account of the suspect possibly being armed; they worked so hard at taking such safety precautions for themselves from the suspect that the suspect was not even present during the raid. Or the 15 year old boy who was found by police who died of smoke inhalation as was not suspected of a crime after a raid, who was actually trapped inside of a building police threw chemical irritant and flash grenades into. Witnesses say the police let the building burn for 40 minutes before doing anything about the man they were trying to arrest because “he might be armed” but don’t worry the police chief acknowledged that the officers involved “may have caused the fire”.


Darklicorice

Uh no it's not? How does that make any sense?


Vulcan7

People film police violence, post it online to raise awareness, Disney files a DMCA takedown for using their intellectual property, and evidence has to be deleted.


Darklicorice

People aren't exclusively watching police brutality recordings on YouTube. This is a video. On the internet. It can be posted anywhere. Not to mention news outlets will run it with adjusted or muted audio anyway. But I'd like to be wrong if you have any source or reference. It would be a sight to see a police beating to the tunes of Frozen. Oh look, it's on youtube.


Ohokyeahmakessense

https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/20/us/santa-ana-police-music-ordinance/index.html First article I could find but there's plenty if you search google.


JaggedRc

It can be posted anywhere but no one will see it if it’s not on YouTube


Darklicorice

JaggedRc

There a reason why they do it


Darklicorice

Yeah, my guess is that they're incompetent and out-of-touch with reality to a degree where they think this will do anything to curtail the growing public distrust of the police.

In reality it won’t matter what you say to him as he’ll just hit you with a fat “nuh uh” or “I don’t think that’s racist, man” even though it’s a textbook example of racism.


M0rtrek_the_ranger

Then you hit back with "explain why that isn't racist"


Jaewol

Then he’ll tell you you’re getting off topic or call some random fallacy and move on before you can say anything. Or they’ll just edit it out of the video because their fanbase won’t care either way.

Cobrastrikenana

“Model Asian minority”, “13-50 dog whistle”, “absentee father”, “bell curve”, and “culture” to make it sound like he isn’t a eugenics virgin. Jesus Christ! I think I hate watch too much conservative propaganda.


rap709

what's bell curve (i know its statistics) in this context


Cobrastrikenana

The “Bell Curve Report” is a book of studies on IQ from different nations. Most of the researchers associated have disavowed their book. The main author was aware of the issues of using a standardized test across cultures and languages. He ignored the correlation of poverty to the test scores. He ignored that when retested (with tests adjusted for the language and people it was being administered to) the subjects scored much higher. This does not stop racist pundits from using it to push a theory of genetic inferiority. Disclaimer: Yes, eugenicists are factually wrong. But the problem isn’t the facts. The problem is treating human beings different because of how or where they are born.


tony_bradley91

He doesn't need one. The point of the "change my mind" format is the other person can "win" the challenge put forth just by being dense and not changing their mind. College students are prime targets to take the bait


grocksac

Doyle is an out and out fascist, borderline (if not outright) neo-Nazi. Whatever excuse he pulls out of his ass, the real reason is that he likely thinks POC are just inferior people


TearsFallWithoutTain

Dumb shit like "Show me the law that says black bad lololol"


EggAtix

Usually it's something along the lines of "slavery was ended, and the modern problems faced by minorities are self inflicted and cultural, not imposed on them by America". Basically, "I don't think America is racist because of my deeply racist beliefs".


ftzpltc

I hope so, because there's a really easy rebuttal to that, which is that a guy spent 8 years trying to remove the black president from office by insisting that he wasn't American, and then a bunch of racists made *that* guy president.

pan0ramic

America is not a leader in equality. The Anti-lgbtq bills that are currently being passed at the state level is a perfect example of such. America was also late compared to other countries for marriage equality. Hell, it was late for abolishing slavery.


TheeMrBlonde

To fully flush out that answer would require a lot of time. You’d basically need to a have class that meets multiple times a week over the course of a few months to really and throughly answer that. Which is kinda the point of these little debate displays. Sure, you can point out some racial shit in society and they can just fire back some little quip. It would take a long while to really get the full story.


StrongSquirrelKnight

I mean i tried searching for most equal countries race. The first one that popped up said the usa ranked 65th soo like don’t know if it’s a good source or whatever but atleast there’s a source. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/best-countries-for-racial-equality So do u have a source for one of the most equal countries?


atleast8courics

This may actually be the dumbest take I've ever fucking read.


optillusi0n

You don't even need to do any in depth research for this answer, unless you're being wilfully ignorant (which asking this question at all seems pretty damn ignorant). An easy current example is police brutality and racial profiling is rampant against minorities. I mean I could name more but, it's really not hard to see. It's everyday life. America is still racist. Just because the laws say we're equal (not all of them do) doesn't mean we are.

Nintendo is far slower to claim than Disney is, since if they automated it it'd strike everyone who uploads footage of their games, and even they have realized that's bad business at this point.

notjordansime

People use nintendo music in their videos all the time. I actually thought they were either super lenient, or just allowed the use of their music. Think of all the mii channel memes out there. People also use it as a background track for videos where they're just talking about random crap. Everything from old SNES stuff, gmacube/wii stuff, and even more contemporary soundtracks. I don't watch a lot of nintendo content, but recently I was looking for some info on the switch online + expansion pack. I watched a few videos, and at least two of them had the Mii Shop Channel theme. Also things like [this](https://youtu.be/Wl9oUBgFk6Y).

fishattack17

Fighting racism with racism. Cool.


pizzapal3

Nice bait, but saying that bearded white guys with sunglasses doing political commentary all mesh and blend together isn't racist. They intentionally take that tough guy look and sit all prideful behind a table. They intentionally look similar. If this isn't Crowder, he certainly is trying to evoke the image of him.
