Rekieta Law Removed from YouTube (youtube.com)

A person urged their followers to falsely file reports to the bar association, with the intent to destroy his livelihood.

The bar complaints contain the information about the complainants.

He stated that he would reveal the identities of the false complainants, to which the bar association makes clear he would have access.

Social media ignored the fraudulent reporting, and preemptively censored the victim.

Scary.


Looks like he was mass reported, and yt yanked his channel.

Keffals posted this after Rekieta was banned, maybe it was her followers retaliating for Rekieta doing videos about Keffals.

Her followers sent a bunch of letters to the state bar trying to get Rekieta disbarred.

I don't know why I went and spent my valuable time looking into this but it seems like there's a good reason. Though to be clear from where I'm standing it looks like Keffals is kinda a piece of shit too, but I don't think she's explicitly saying people should be killed [0]. Just from that video clip this dude is dogwhistling some fascistic leanings so probably good riddance. I don't think I've ever encountered a single instance of where someone was referred to as a "groomer" in a way that wasn't shorthand for "I believe LGBT people don't deserve the same rights as everyone else."

While an extreme drunken rant that part refers to Keffals being allegedly involved in helping kids from ages 12 an on (by her own admission [0]) to transition. There's also some involvement with a wiki that offers information about seemingly sketchy hormone suppliers and guidance on using them that apparently also caters to minors [1].

Maybe they involve their parents, maybe not. If not that could be considered grooming. Lets face it, most of us were lost and dumb idiots as teenagers and teenagers are extremely susceptible to outside influence.

The rant in question starts at around 3:38:05 [2] preceded by another drunken free speech absolutist rant.

Disagree with the way that was expressed by Rekieta but understand the sentiment.

In short assholes being assholes with one of the assholes attempting to destroy the livelihood of anyone that disagrees with them by any means necessary.

Did anyone have an archive? :(

This kind of censorship makes me sad - I miss when the internet was genuine and mean.


Here's an upload of his last vid. He gets banned around 3:53.

You know what the best thing about the internet is? Connecting people. You know what the worst thing about the internet is. It's allowed all the stupid people to connect and you cannot underestimate the power of large groups of stupid people. Hitler only had the support of 33% of the German population. I fear that American Liberalism is nearing that saturation point. Fortunately for sanity, they're not the half of the country that likes guns.


His twitter [0] was also banned, but rumble [1] and odysee [2] channels are still up. That said, this is the first time I'm hearing of this channel/user. Why is he notable, and any speculation on why he was banned?

Re: notability, his subscriber count was 471k which lands in the middle of [0]

He is lawyer who comments on stream about lawsuits that are in the news, like the Rittenhouse trial, Depp/Heard, and recently some of Twitter's legal issues.

The reason he was targeted was because he is friendly to Kiwifarms and its owner, and routinely laughs along with them at the people on their forum. Keffals is just butthurt and themselves continues to call for others to be doxxed and swatted both before and after the same thing happening to themselves. Keffals is pissed at the Kiwifarms for airing out all their dirty laundry that, so far, mainstream media has completely ignored, and only paint them as some innocent victim that didn't deserve anything they got.


His stream and community (other law youtubers and fans of that) did live streams and commentary over big lawsuits (rittenshouse for example). It did get spicy at times often with alcohol involved, unsure what the actual infraction was. I watched maybe a total of 10 min, so take the above with a grain of salt.
