After several violations of the company's hate speech policies, YouTube has banned Soph, the teen vlogger whose Islamophobic videos attracted nearly one million followers and national media attention, after she released an anti-LGBTQ video on July 31st.

According to YouTube, Soph broke the company's three-strike policy, having made three Community Guildine violations in 90 days, resulting in a permanent ban.

The 14-year-old vlogger followed the ban by tweeting a photograph of a gun and the caption "youtube headquarters here I come." Soph later deleted the post, claiming it was a joke. In April 2018, a political vlogger shot three people before killing herself at YouTube headquarters.

Soph later tweeted that she was unphased by the ban. She tweeted, "Jokes aside, nothing of value was lost. there'll be less people watching -- their loss, the ones subscribed to the patreon will continue getting their money's worth."

This would not be the first time that Soph and YouTube came to blows. In May 2019, police investigated alleged threats made by Soph toward YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki. Despite the controversy, the vlogger continued to upload videos to the platform, although her channel was demonetized and she incurred a brief suspension.

Soph originally rose to infamy online under the name LtCorbis a foul-mouthed Counter Strike and Call of Duty vlogger. She made headlines again in 2019, following a viral tweet by Russian YouTuber NFKRZ, who shared a series of Islamophobic and homophobic messages from Soph. NFKRZ also suggested that her brother, Victor aka Vaporub Boy, was behind her radicalization.

Well here's your first problem. Why the hell is there a child on Youtube? You have to be 13 to make an account and use the site. You can avoid this problem if you kick these kids off the site for violating the rules.

I'm not going to say kids shouldn't be allowed on Youtube, but when it's pretty clear that the kid's being exploited by their relatives, something should be done.

Wait, this is the same Vaporub Boy who did edits for the Anthony Fantano meme videos. Huh…that's weird…that's really weird.

Now it seems like it's for the better that thatistheplan got shut down. This was just a controversy waiting to happen.

Shit like this is why I am kind of restrictive of my daughters internet time and also why I can't write off the Alt-Right as a legit problem despite how many of my Conservative friends say we should just ignore them.

They target children and love brainwashing them with memes. Now, I'm not gunna go so far as to say we should "Ban le memes!" or shit like that. But let's stop acting like comics like Stonetoss are just always "Haha funny jokes" and recognize when they put their ideas and propaganda into memes and comics, and just try to keep our kids away from it and if they do encounter it help them understand why it is wrong.

It's especially a shame because Corbis appears to be a very bright young girl, but her mind is long since been taken over by the propaganda.

"Honey, maybe we should be doing some due diligence with our child and her activities online. Wait, people are sending her how much money?

Let's see how this pans out…"

I hate to imagine their home life.

On the contrary, I'd love to be a fly on the wall during their Thanksgiving. I'm pretty sure there's at least one racist uncle who was very surprised to be out-racisted by a 14-year old.

Does their mommy know about this?

I've watched her videos from nearly day one and I can assure you all this shit about her brother is false. It's all on her. It's sad that's she has this weird hangup about gay people because overall she's usually quite rational. She'll always be a voice on the internet though because her perspective is pretty unique.
