How YouTube's "Super Chat" System Is Pushing Video Creators Toward More Extreme Content

'FACT,” wrote a commenter who paid $5 for a Super Chat. '

'They include Jared Taylor, the founder of the white supremacist magazine American Renaissance; Andrew Anglin, the founder of the neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer; Colin Robertson, a Scottish white nationalist YouTuber better known as Millennial Woes, who has spoken at white nationalist events; and Greg Johnson, editor of the white nationalist website Counter-Currents. '

'However, we found that the comments shared in Super Chat do,” said a statement from a YouTube spokesperson. '

'YouTube introduced Super Chats in early 2017 as a way for video creators to engage with their fans during live broadcasts and earn extra income in the process. '

'At one point during the livestream, a user with the screen name “Hitler Did Everything Right” spent $5 using YouTube’s paid commenting system known as “Super Chats” to ask Cantwell a question. '
