After 16 years, my @YouTube channel (GrimmGreen) was terminated today with no real explanation.
I’ve built my content around harm reduction, helping adult smokers quit, and advocating for science-based policies.
This feels like a huge mistake. If you believe in THR, free speech, and the mission we’ve been on, please help me get YouTube’s attention.
@TeamYouTube I’m asking for a real human to review my case.
I’ve never promoted anything illegal. I’ve never targeted youth. I’ve worked tirelessly to be a responsible voice in the vaping and harm reduction space. But like many creators in this space, it seems I’ve been swept up in an overly aggressive moderation wave.

Am I tired of fighting to be heard? 100%. Not as much as I miss my best friend, my person & former partner who died from lung cancer. What if seeing this film helped bring an end to the stigma of nicotine/helped ppl live healthier lives? Please share 🙏

@Michael_Sadler "Lakeside Park, so many memories" (I know it's not one of yours, or the same park, but the sentiment is there, and your memory triggered that song in my head)
English

July 1, 2014 - A special memory of my dear sister Dianne Sadler with 6 year old Seren, celebrating his 1st Canada Day at Lakeshore park that year.
As you can see, she had him all decked out to her delight. She gamely walked around the insanely hot park that day, checking out the attractions and patiently waited while he jumped till his legs gave out at the inflatable jump house. We love you Di ♥️

I know this one will be polarizing. What do you rate this album by Rush out of 10?

@RooodCanadian @rights4vapers Yeah, last thing in the world I want to taste is tobacco when I want to not smoke - some people like it, which is fair, but clearly these policies are not meant to help people quit smoking esp as only adults could buy vape products legally before
English

@rights4vapers It's just like telling vapers they have to use "tobacco" flavour.
Seems people want to discourage anything that will actually separate the vaper from the tobacco experience.

🤔 What do you think?

"By forcing the vapers to go outside and stand with the smokers you’re exposing the smokers to temptation. It’s like holding a meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous in a pub - you wouldn’t do that would you?" @rorysutherland on vaping #TheSmokelessWord #Omni #BAT
English

@rights4vapers "Totally barbaric", and that a society feels it is OK to look down on vapers and smokers indicates that there is something wrong with that society, thanks to people like @GrimmGreen and yourself for trying to help

@Thehullboy1 @MindCharity You did it - so proud of you (I have a boy your age, so Dad-like proud), wish I could have been in the UK to cheer you along, you have come so far - never quit trying your best!

£100,000 RAISED 🤯
Truly speechless. When I began running I said my all time goal was to raise 100K for @mindcharity - never did I imagine we would do it on this challenge alone. I don’t even know how to word this, this is already the greatest day of my life and I haven’t even finished the run yet.
To whoever donated £20,000 anonymously, you have a heart of gold and thank you so much for believing in the challenge. Thank you to EVERYONE who has supported, I will forever be grateful for you all ❤️
16 miles to go!
