It seems that Second Thought (and their second channel, First Thought) has been silently removed from Nebula, with no comment from them or anyone on Nebula's side.

There's some context in the comments of a couple of reddit threads about this, that have been deleted on the Nebula subreddit:

That is a good question as there have been plenty to choose from. And not getting any better. I have watched a few of their videos and didn't find many of them that objectionable. But they and the channels overall have had some pretty bad takes here and there. And heavy lack of objectivity towards some subjects.

The video put out today for instance was pretty much whitewashing leninism. Dancing around some of the horrible things leninist states have done. Always justifying it with somehow the west or the United States was worse. Which doesn't matter. If it's bad it's bad. It's not a contest. And two wrongs don't make a right.

I legit hardcore chuckled when he un ironically claimed that China was somehow more democratic than the West? And had much better representation. Maybe it was intended in jest and I just took it seriously? I'm down to critique of America all day everyday. There's plenty of a problems with it. But that statement was just bananas.
