Why don't we hear more strong antiwar voices?

    These days, it seems that several loud voices are silenced in the media. If the government does not agree with you, they are quick to shut you up. Why could this be?  The government seems to not like people who disagree with them. For example: a Youtube group referred to as The Nelk Boys did an interview with Donald Trump a couple weeks ago. This interview was was uploaded onto their Youtube and Full Send Podcast. In this video, the two hosts, Kyle ForgeardStephen Deleonardis, and friends sat down and spoke to President Trump about World War 3, Putin, and more. This video gained over 5 million views before it was taken down by Youtube. It had barely been 24 hours at the time that this video was blocked from public view. Why was this? Does this not contradict the freedom of speech amendment? I believe that one of the biggest issues was the conversation on war. Although it can be a touchy subject, why is it something so taboo to speak about? That is why sites like The American Conservative and Antiwar.com seem to be hidden behind closed doors. The government does not like this websites and they do not promote the words written on them. That is why these websites seem so obscure because they are mostly hidden from the public.
