Maza, who hosts the Vox show Strikethrough, said he and Vox have directly reached out to YouTube for the past two years “and have gotten no action at all from them.” Maza wrote a viral Twitter thread last week describing the harassment he is experiencing from Steven Crowder and his followers.Ĭrowder has published a number videos mocking Maza, calling him a “lispy queer” and making other racist and anti-gay comments. Vox host Carlos Maza is blasting YouTube for not adequately enforcing its harassment policies after experiencing what he says has been ongoing racist and anti-gay harassment from a right-wing personality on the platform for years.
