In their first public statement since the creation of their labor union on Monday, a new union for Google workers condemned YouTube, for “its insufficient response” to the insurrection at the Capitol on Wednesday and its “role” in the “growing facist movement in the United States.” 

While other social media platforms have temporarily or indefinitely suspended President Trump for spreading misinformation and inciting violence that inspired right-wing extremists to riot at the Capitol on Monday, YouTube—which is owned by Google—has only removed a video where Trump told right-wing extremists, “We love you, you’re very special.” The company has not blocked his accounts on the platform.
