John,
YouTube is turning over its homepage advertising to the Trump campaign on
Election Day. When Americans go to the polls, Trump will be broadcasting
his hateful lies and conspiracy theories on the world’s biggest social
media platform.
Facebook and Twitter have already banned political ads in the election
run-up in a desperate attempt to stem the tide of disinformation. But
YouTube has decided to hand Donald Trump a megaphone instead.
If there is a massive public outcry, we can force YouTube to pull the plug
on Trump and ditch all political ads for the duration of the election. We
need you to join the call:

Insiders say that YouTube considered replacing political ads on the
homepage with 'Get Out the Vote' ads but company bosses slapped down the
idea.
With YouTube’s reach even bigger than Facebook, it’s hard to fathom how
company bosses can defend such a reckless decision.
In the last two weeks alone, Facebook has banned Holocaust deniers and
QAnon conspiracists thanks to millions of people demanding action. We’ve
got these social media giants on the run -- now’s the time to double down
on YouTube.
