Popular Catholic conservative commentator Nick Fuentes, a fiery critic of the GOP establishment, was purged on Friday from Google-owned YouTube for unspecified “hate speech.”

Fuentes was one of the most popular conservative streamers on YouTube and regularly drew thousands of live viewers.

As the unofficial leader of the “Groyper Army” which confronted Dan Crenshaw, Charlie Kirk and other prominent conservatives with hard questions about their support for Israel, abandonment of social conservatism and silence on demographic changes, members of Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA, the Zionist Organization of America, Sebastian Gorka, Ben Shapiro and the Times of Israel lobbied for him to be outcast, censored and banned.

Fuentes was banned from live streaming earlier this week after getting a second “strike” on his channel and was officially given the ax on Friday morning.

“My Youtube channel has been wrongly terminated today for an alleged violation of ‘hate speech’ policy,” Fuentes said Friday afternoon on Twitter. “This is the end result of a concerted effort by leftists, conservative inc gatekeepers, and silicon valley censors to silence my show and the movement it has inspired.”

“Fuentes banned by YouTube after taking on Conservative Inc. and them all calling for his deplatforming. Really makes you think,” Paul Joseph Watson said Friday after hearing the news.
