"Banned from youtube"
Because that is censorship and people that favor censorship tend to exploit people with terrible tendencies and whom have terrible views to escalate information control. I don't think many people like Assad, but SANA is still a valuable resource for study because it shows a propaganda narrative/channel.

"certified Jihadi extremist channel"
​
Which means what? Who gave them this certification? Sounds like this is more of a personal thing. Do I support sunni extremists? Of course not. But I am not going to pretend that Regime linked groups or Hezbollah is any different. Both of them operate Youtube channels. I'd assume you would be upset if they are shut down. Hezbollah in particular, has been very good at not only getting information out, but also being able to create narratives that appeal to some Western audiences. Of course, they lost a lot of their shine when they went into Syria but still. I remember reading stuff from the "Electronic Resistance" years and years ago, maybe even when Bush was in office.

OGN is actually pretty interesting and useful for people that are actually interested in MENA studies, which is why this sub was created. It wasn't created to be filled with trolls posting blanket generalizations because they look at the Syrian conflict like a sports match. The interviews that OGN provides gives people a glimpse into the mindset of the individuals that are over in Syria. Its also why books like "The Exile" are so good and informative. Just because you or I do not like what the person says or did does not mean it should be censored.

This particular individual has been in Syria since 2013, he has a long history and is a pretty interesting character, despite having some pretty nasty views (which again, is par for the course of all groups in Syria).

I am honestly surprised at the discussion in the comments, I thought it was going to be basically shitposts. It seems that there are at least a few here that actually want to have a discussion.
