Once a few feminists/SJWs get to stage 3 it's all over.
Internet needs to have freedom of speech.No restrictions.

So you rather corporations not find revenue sources, in order to continue existing or growing? If you want to have anarchy without defined rules, their are many sites that cater towards that. Youtube is not going to be one of those, because it wants to maximise profits. Now I agree level 3 is stupid, don't get me wrong. 

Isn't youtube the 3rd most popular site on earth?

It's only got that big because of freedom of speech.

Start the censorship squads and it'll collapse in on itself and competitors will rise up fast.

I don't know if that has effected Twitter or Google. Plus very hard to compete with Adsense which again is Google. Also Youtube got popular mainly on easy to distribute content, not really ground breaking discussion and toxic comment section.

I was more talking about the "mass flag video" feature that level 3 heroes get.Really it's indefensible - mass flagging encourages people to flag videos they have not even watched.

Well doesn't the concept of flagging mean it still needs to be reviewed?

People are declaring the death of youtube with the introduction of Youtube Heroes, yet again, because this will censor the internet, with user backed moderation tool. 

Exaggeration at its finest. "Oh, no! I can't be a racist homophobe any more. Youtube is dead".
