Hey freak
Well, if it isn't the plague?
In the flesh!
How's the scams going down? 
We're straight jacking people
We've got three waves of scams going down.  
Wave the first!
Promise users they will see something but instead direct them off site
Wave the second!
We content aiming to mislead voters about the time place means our eligibility with requirements for voting
Wave the third!
To sites that spread malware try to gather personal information or other sites that have negative impact
[Whispered]: Malware
The worst ware.
[Evil laugh]
[Power vom]
[Upbeat intro music]
This is good.
[Dave]: Yeah, it is
Yeah, this is really good. What is this? Chamomile?
[Dave]: No, man. It's green tea
Oh, that's a happy to tea.
[Dave]: Yeah, that works for the calming day we had.
It is perfect for a day like today. It's a good day.
It's been a good day. 
[Lance]: It's kind like one of those days it just
wraps around you like a cloud.
[Dave]: Yeah. Yeah.
It's a good calm day.
You know what day it is?
April first.
[Dave]: Oh April Fool's!
[Lance]: April Fool's!
That's right. We should do something.
[Dave]: Maybe we could
What did we do last year? Wasn't I Placebo Bill
Yeah, and I was a Rick man of Sarnia.
[Lance]: Rick man of Sarnia! That's right. That was awesome
Yeah, that was a lark.
[Lance]: That was droll. That was droll. 
We should do something.
[Lance]: We should do something
Let's brainstorm some ideas!
You know what? I'll just go check on The Serfs YouTube channel, see how it's doing and then we'll get started.
Sounds good. Let's do it
[Quietly]: Right right right
[Upbeat music continues playing]
[Body hits floor]
[Minor key orchestral music plays]
[Feminine Opera Singer sings]
[Jarring electronic noises]
[Dave]: Hello
[Lance]: Hi and that's what really happened. 
[Dave]: Yeah
[Lance]: That is the truth that is exactly what happened. That's how it happened
We, we-.. That was a dramatization.
No, no. That was the true foo-.
Yeah, that was real footage from the day of the big question
[Dave]: Yes
[Lance]: And as you can tell we've mastered lighting. We've mastered YouTube lighting.
We are just
(professionals)
 professionals in every respect
Thank you.
(Yes, sincerely)
Sincerely, thank you
Wow guys that was f[censored]ckin' insane, I can't believe that all took place in the last 48 hours. 
[Dave]: Yeah
[Lance]: That was crazy
This is Dave by the way
(Hello!)
I know a lot of people have been seeing my face on the internet for a while. This is the other surf the other half of the surface
This is the other Serf. The other half of The Serfs.
He's dope
Yeah
[Dave]: Haven't I ever been on a video
Oh, yeah, you're on on tons of videos... I... I...
I just mean this fiasco... Because like I did this the Michael Brooks show 
[Dave]: Oh, yes, yes...
[Lance]: and then I did the other thing, so yeah..? You know
Everything just sort of came to a head pretty rapidly there.
[Lance]: Oh my god
So yeah, we're gonna tell you the story. We're gonna tell you the behind-the-scenes juicy info and
hopefully we're going to thank you guys enough because
This... Honestly was just all you. This was like a crazy grassroots
(Yeah, yeah)
Power to the people campaign, you know, thousands of you.
Together we are strong
[Lance]: Together we are strong!
Yeah, what is it? "Where we go one, we go all"?
You know what? Maybe those guys are on to something
Q?
I mean, if Q was the one who brought us back, I mean, thanks, I guess?
[Lance]: (Yeah)
I mean, I didn't consider us anonymous. Like you just honored us. This is like... Thank you so much
Yeah, honestly guys that was incredible everything like every single one of you all the tweets the retweets the hashtag #SerfsUp
Then like put it right there... The YouTube celebrities that were just going out of their way to spend time
The real celebrities who really know way, too
you know vouch for us, to talk about the story and
Yeah, it was nuts! Soooo, as I'm sure most people know, April first our site at exactly 4:00 a.m got taken down...
[Dave]: Yeah, so Lance messaged me at like 7:00 in the morning that day
[Lance]: (I think so, yeah)
[Dave]: And you're like, oh, our page is down
[Lance]: (Yeah)
[Dave]: and I was like what you're like our page is like... they removed our page.
[Dave]: And I'm getting ready for work and like... Wait. What? Is this some sort of joke?
[Lance]: (Yeah)
[Both]: Yeah, yeah, no shit it's April Fools
Yeah, no shit. Oh man. That was the crazy part
[Dave]: No, no, It was down yeah
[Lance]: (Yeah, it was down)
It was took a couple hours before we even got any feedback as to like, you know, like
Because the reason that they gave us was ridiculous
Yeah, obviously we didn't do anything that they said we thought obviously there's some sort of mistake.
[Dave]: (But)
[Lance]: well, I mean the fact that you were prohibited from accessing or possessing or creating other YouTube accounts
I guess we... I broke that right away
[Lance]: Well, okay, so we...
[Dave]: You can't silence me!
So I told sort of Dave he was obviously gutted and choked, but he was on his way to work
right, so he's like what can I do and so like, you know
I was just stewing there and I was like we have to tell somebody, you know, like what we had... We had 7000 subscribers
it's like I'm sure like a few of them were like what the f[censored]ck is happening
(Yeah, of course, yeah)
Yeah, so I recorded that video
You know just obviously being completely gutted and hate-filled and everything
uploaded it to a brand new account we started and it just took off. Like it was just it was just crazy like
You know someone posted it on bread tube
Breadtube upvoted it to the very top of the red and all of a sudden which is you guys Rock
(You guys rock)
It was exploding everywhere, and then, you know
I was getting all these DMs and messages from people like radical reviewer
reached out to me and it's like Kevin Logan wants to be on the show to talk about this
So he set that up for the next day and then I guess at around
I'll say you know, maybe 11-ish our time
that's what Non-Compete got a hold of it and Non-Compete did just an impromptu one-hour
Live special about the scripts and about th...  which was incredible guys like that was amazing like you and Luna
Doing that. That was so cool
And that's what started the hashtag #SerfsUp
[Dave]: Yeah
Got birthed there, and then everyone just went to town
I mean like it didn't matter if they were in lefttube, breadtube... 
part of the left-wing community or just part of any anything the sphere like...
Anything in the intersectionality sphere, right like people of all walks.
(Yeah)
[Lance]: (We're just you know)
[Dave]: I'll sympathize with I guess this concept of you know
this little guy at least especially in the like the left side being bullied by
What we can only assume are like alt-right trolls in an effort to just shut us down
(Yeah, shut us down)
[Lance]: Successfully. Yeah. 
[Dave]: Yeah, right. Yeah, like we had no recourse absolutely silence. We sent them, middle the night...
We sent them to the appeal process right away
I didn't get any response and then just like kind of sat there in, you know, limbo
[Dave]: (wallowed)
Yeah, I'm wallowed in limbo Wondering what was happening
And that was terrible but then we went on the majority report with Sam Seder. And he was incredible. He was awesome.
(Yeah)
[Dave]: Thank yoooou
[Lance]: Thank you guys so much. And his
partner Michael Brooks who hosts the Michael Brooks show knew all about us and was just like going off like "oh, yeah
These guys are good. I've seen The Serfs before they're funny
I liked them" and that was awesome. And then it ended and as soon as like, you know, I hung up the phone
He's like those were just, you know, he was definitely Canadian. You're just the politest guy ever
definitely Canadian
Could tell that I'm not looking to get people to do anything crazy with their day. Just we had a bunch of Nazis
just throwing off of YouTube for no gosh darn in reason. But, um anyway, sorry to take up too much of your time
That was amazing! That was the funniest impersonation ever!
(Yeah)
Bravo, sir, bravo. Yeah
So, you know that amplified everything and also, you know just you guys just the, what is...
The Union! The Union of Comrades! Just sending shit on top...
[Subtitler's note: Hmm?]
This just goes to show, like as a collective, we have so much power
(Absolutely)
as an individual going against the behemoth
that is YouTube or any of these, really, tech industries. Yeah, we are at their whim and mercy
(Absolutely)
When they've decided to cancel us, we're just out... But, you know, together with
United the people shall never be defeated. That was basically the motto
(Yeah)
So the day after which was Tuesday
After doing The Majority Report and having, I guess, that other signal boosts and all your hard work
You know sending a lot of stuff out
YouTube, which was just bumbling their way through this whole thing, sent us an email saying:
"Sir? Your account is being checked."
 I responded with "Why have you not answered any of my questions? Why have you not answered?
You know the fact that we've never done any of these fraudulent things, where's my blah blah blah" You know?
All these all these things, faceless corporation, didn't answer any of it and then bumbling their ways for the entire process
They turn the channel on all the videos are deleted. And the subscribe buttons.
(Yeah, yeah)
So it was just a shell of a channel to get back to us. Well, you know, thanks
(Yeah)
[Lance]: Yeah, thank you for that
[Lance]: And then of course that it set off you guys even more
There was tons more just like @YouTube, @TeamYouTube, @YouTube, @TeamYouTube... Everyone like fighting together
And then I got another email from YouTube that said "Hey, by the way, your case has been passed on to me,"
it was a different person named Anna and
"You know, we're gonna I'm gonna sort things out..." though
And at this point I was like
they're just bumbling their way through this. Like someone... Like it's just it's basically like a faceless person behind a computer screen
who got an account flag?
(Yeah)
And like well, there are 7000
(Click)
subscribers, just turn it off... And then all of a sudden all the noise you guys were making there
there was some like what have we done, you know, like, you know
[Dave]:Bring it back, pass it on
[Lance]: All that kind of stuff and they restored our channel in full
Which, like, this whole thing is just such an example of what happens if everyone bands together
So many... Like, just, so many names for us to name drop
I want to kind of name drop the smaller guys first just because I think the small guys
With the smaller YouTube channels deserve to have the most amplification... 
Bad Empanada. You're awesome. He does incredible videos on Venezuela
...Amazing videos on Venezuela
[Dave]: (Yes)
He deserves more subs. Go sub to him.
Jose does amazing videos and he's Canadian and he does a lot of takedowns of people that we also despise. Yeah, he's awesome
Yeah, he's awesome. Go check him out 
[Dave]: (Yes)
[Subtitle Note: José]
Radical Reviewer, who does probably the best
reviews on all the books in the left sphere... If you want to know why BreadTube is called BreadTube
what the bread book is he does a review on that. He's awesome. Go subscribe to him
[Subtitle note: Radical Reviewer]
Another small youtuber that you need to follow is Ray Ramses
He's awesome
He's got what I would consider is the best video so far on global warming and that it scares the living shit out of us
[Lance]: And it scares the living shit out of us
[Dave]: (But hey)
If you live in the middle of the Equator because that's where he lives and he's really scared about it 
and he has a right to be
[Subtitle Note: Ray Ramses]

[Lance]: Yeah. Yeah. Thank you so much 
Faraday Speaks, the ex-member of the alt-right
Just called us right away. Actually. He was just like "I'm so enraged by this. Like, how can I help that was really cool"
[Dave]: (Yeah)
Maria the Witch. Thank you so much. Big fan of your channel. Really cool that you reached out to us
And of course the Kavernacle who produces incredible videos he had a recent one on Joe Biden and his little hands
[Quietly]: And his smelling technique, so...
(Check that out)
Check that out
I'd like to give a shout out to rationality disconnect. He makes amazing videos on YouTube and
unfortunately lately has not been as active. So send him some love folks
We want him to keep making videos so he can..., you know the shower and with your praise love
 and whatever else he personally enjoys
We'd also like to thank @Zei_naqb or "Say-ee napki"... I'm sorry, if I'm not pronouncing that correctly, but the Internet's most
ruthless social justice warrior. The squirrel that just takes down Jordan Peterson on a regular basis. Thank you for amplifying our story
That was awesome. I'd like to give a shout-out to Chrisiosity
Thank you so much for tweeting about us and check her channel out. She makes some awesome videos
She's a very intelligent woman and the reason what she did on the BCE and oppression is super dope. So check it out
Obviously Non-Compete and you know Emerican Johnson, the guy who did the live broadcast. Amazing
That was so cool of you to do
 Kevin Logan had us on the show, amplified us, talked just for an hour, you know
Also, that was incredible. We can't thank you enough
Peter Coffin, you know, just like a superstar in the the realm of
BreadTube, LeftTube, whatever you want to call it, you know was was
vocal about this daily, you know, those those really cool to see.
 Hbomberguy. Probably my favorite bread tuber
Love you, man. That was really really cool. Thank you so much
Hasan Piker
Yeah, had some tweets for us. That was really dope. He's been you know, he's been supporting us since the beginning
Well, he was one of the first people to actually say like, you know, "I really like this channel. Yeah
Yeah, go check out The Serfs." So yeah, he's he's dope. Oh cool
[French Voice]: In Conclusion
So you're behind a computer screen who got an account flag and like they're only 7000
(Yeah)
subscribers. Click. Turn 'em off... And then all of a sudden all the noise you guys were making there
They were some like "What have we done?" you know, like, you know, it's...
[Dave]: Bring it on, pass it on
Pass it on all that kind of stuff and they restored our channel in full
Which like this whole thing is just such an example of what happens if everyone bands together, you know
Like everybody fought for us, like we'll never forget it. Like, you know, we owe everything to you
You guys were the ones... You guys are responsible for all this everyone. You're the ones who made this all happen
And yeah, like we can't Thank you enough
[Lance] No, no
[Dave]: We will try by making more videos
[Lance]: (We will try)
More vomit is on its way
You can gift that one. That one's the freebies. Just don't send it to my mom. Oh, yeah, and
Yeah
Hello boys! I'm baaaaaack!"
Maybe you'll thank me for this
[Spitting noise]
So one final piece of the story that, you know, that's kind of the cherry on top to all this
I never actually showed anyone what the ending of the video I made to explain our situation was
It actually ran for about
10 more seconds after the end one that everyone's seen. And the reason I didn't show it was because I didn't want
the message to end on such a dark note, but I figure now since the situation has changed a little bit
I can finally, I guess, revealed the secret ending
to the people who, I guess, did this?
Go f[censored]ck yourselves
This is the end of the day
we should actually be thanking whoever did that. You Streisand effected this in the
worst possible way. You brought an entire community together and it inspired us
we have this new channel where about 5000 people subscribed to it, and
seeing us how the community were the ones that kind of banded together to save us in the first place
We wanted to give back right away
So the first thing we did was contact the mods at BreadTube and asked them if we could donate the channel to
the BreadTube community
The idea behind this being is that we can grow it into something that can help promote some of more channels, they can make sure
our content stays up forever in case someone actually goes down, that can mirror people's videos to help amplify their cause and
seeing as we are community BreadTube is actually inviting everyone right now if they're interested to sound off on
what they think the channel should become
And, yeah. Again, thank you guys so much
We'd like to throw out a huge thank you to all our patreon supporters you guys are awesome big shout out
