For quite some time, one of my favorite YouTube cannabis personalities I watched was Lex Blazer. If you do not know who he is, Lex Blazer is a cannabis educator and businessman. And his videos ranged across the gamut of the cannabis subject. He has videos on growing, vaping, history, and making edibles. But YouTube axed his site. And I've been trying to invite him over to Steemit & Dtube.
Lex Blazer had been warning his viewers for weeks this was going to happen. Apparently, YouTube has a DEA bug up it's ass, (see what I did there), and has decided to take down all their drug channels. When I click on a Lex Blazer video to watch, it brought me to a termination page.
And, the irony of it all, is right under the termination notice, there are several suggested channels. Guess what? Everyone of them are embroiled with corporate advertising. And as we know from our studies, anyone involved with corporate advertising is essentially compromised. And by compromised, I mean, you cannot trust what they are all about, because they will always have an agenda to foist upon it's viewers.
Ironically, YouTube didn't do any homework with regards to the rise of cannabis use and it's growing legalization. As we now have 29 states with some form of legal cannabis, YouTube seems to have sided with main stream media with a negative attitude towards marijuana. So, this does not seem to be a sound financial decision. And I am not buying it that they are worried about getting sued by someone for videos about cannabis. Lex pretty much ran a cannabis university with a lot of online learning.
One of the things I like about Lex Blazer is his perfect diction. You might think that is weird. But, when you hear him talk, one thing you will notice is his precise delivery of each syllable in his words. And, while I am not sure why, I know it's fun to listen to him talk when you are stoned. Also, his videos are so educational, all they can do is enhance your life.
As previously stated, I have invited Lex Blazer over to Steemit & Dtube. Join me, if you can, and reach out to him and ask him to join Steemit by tweeting him at @LexsWorld.
