What's funny is the article starts with Flat Earth, a theory even the conspiracy crowd ridicules. There are tons of Flat Earth videos on YouTube to this day. If it's so dangerous, why not censor it site wide like all the videos questioning vaccine safety or pro vs anti-vaxxer debate videos where the anti side appears victorious? Those last only a few days at most.
It's because Flat Earth videos are not meant to be censored. They are meant to stick around no matter what so a wacky, not-believable theory can be linked to the conspiracy crowd in an attempt to discredit them. Don't believe me? Search any conspiracy themed subreddit/forum and see how many users write "this again?"
Same exact thing with Q Anon nonsense. Those videos aren't censored off YouTube, as a matter of fact they're everywhere. Why? Because the media is attempting to link concerns about something legitimate like contaminants in vaccines or hydroxychloroquine actually saving lives with something insane like Q Anon.
QAnon, the theory that Trump is actually working behind the scenes to take down the deep state and elite pedophiles from the inside. Just please everyone.. Do your part by sitting there and waiting. Take no action whatsoever. Keep faith and trust the plan. You still waiting and doing nothing? Okay perfect. This is working perfectly. Get it?
