(Pulpit & Pen) After being on the platform for two years, YouTube banned a video of Dr. Michelle Cretella, a pediatrician and executive director at the American Academy of Pediatricians, who explained that dismembering body parts is a symptom of mental illness.
The board-certified pediatrician gives medical facts in the video and demonstrates that ‘transgenderism’ doesn’t really exist.

According to the media giant, YouTube, giving medical facts is “hate speech.”
