- blacktriangle 6y agoBecause nothing says freedom of expression like silencing people.
- breakfastduck 6y agoYou'd hope that there wouldn't be a single person involved with such a lack of self-awareness to suggest that a video about a freedom of expression award should have user expression blocked.
- thedanbob 6y agoHah, good point. I guess if they're going to be this tone-deaf they just have to accept the backlash.
- breakfastduck 6y agoIt's kinda better if they know there will be a backlash and go ahead anyway out of evil or whatever. It's considerably more disheartening to think that there are people out there with this level of power with no fucking connection with reality.
- newswasboring 6y agoHere is a wikipedia page[1] for most disliked youtube videos. On balance I think Sadak 2 trailer wins with 13 mil views and 94.8% dislikes.

- jetrink 6y agoVotes currently stand at 34 likes to 11,000 dislikes. Is that a record low ratio on a video with a non-trivial amount of votes?
- adrianb 6y agoRewind 2017 must be worse? EDIT: Verified, it's not. But it must've been at some point.
- Anon1096 6y agoGood thing Youtube plans to remove the dislike button soon. If there's only a thumbs up button, that means that 100% of voters liked the content!
