I don't think ViewPure counts as a YouTube client. It just embeds a YouTube video, which is enough to strip away the YouTube clutter, but it's not reimplementing the YouTube player's JavaScript code the way invidio.us does, for instance.
I could be mistaken but I don't think YouTube officially permits third-party clients of any sort. Perhaps that's a good litmus test.
The same thing applies to Capitalism. It always leads to tyranny on one hand and serfdom on the other.
In truth there is nothing wrong, per se, with Socialism, Capitalism or Communism. Merely the way in which they are implemented.
There is no country in the world that does not have a mixed economy, with facets of all three Socialism, Communism and Capitalism interspersed. Sure, there will be weasel-words to prevent the truth coming through, like 'Common Good' instead of 'Socialism'. But one country's 'Common Good' is the next country's 'Socialism'.
(Roads and Highways, Single-Payer Health Care, Unemployment Assistance, Food Stamps, Business Bail-Outs, etc, etc.)
but also to be honest, most of the "businessmen" were scum - we're talking about 19th/beginning of the 20ieth century, where a worker was worth basically nothing. 16 or even up to 20 working hours per day were usual, even for children of ages of 10-12. and that for a salary that was barely sufficient to rent a corner (literally!) in a room and a bit to eat (and you don't want to know what was in this food).
there were exceptions, but even the better working conditions were so far below today's standards that calling e.g. the factory owner "scum" would actually be way too mild.
In 20th century communist revolutions, small business owners such as storekeepers had their property taken away.
It is not a historically correct view that only those business people who matched evil stereotypes from Charles Dickens novels were targeted for dispossession, and everyone else could continue on as before.
It simply became a crime to own property pretty much beyond personal belongings.
Your own little farm, book store, whatever.
Talk to anyone of Chinese descent who got on a boat and the hell out of Vietnam when the communists won the war.
Speaking of descent, these communist takeovers have been tinged with racism/xenophobia. Whereas in Vietnam it was the Chinese elite with money and education, in the The Soviet revolution, the situation was heavily anti-semitic since a lot of the business owners were Jews.
Modern liberals in America, especially anyone too young to remember and relate to the cold war are, know basically fuck all about any of this. No first hand account of anything, just indoctrination from politically-correct sources.
I myself am a refugee from former Czechoslovakia. I actually lived in communism.
Ironically, now I once again may not criticize communism. Wait, that's not even what I'm doing. Rather, I may not make uncontroversial, true statements about communism that Stalin would likely agree with if he were here.
