If you watch any you tube video concerning content that has been subjected to conspiracy theories or has some sort of sensitive context they put a little banner at the bottom. I've seen this before on waco, 9/11, moonlanding videos, UFO incidents, political assassinations, missing person cases, missing, destroyed planes (such as this one or the one that lost its cockpit) Its not just videos that question the official narrative, even videos that cover the information or mention it have it too.
Good. Just because some nutter made a video doesn't make it absolute fact. People should be looking at multiple sources for truth and facts. Far too many flat earthers and anti vaxxers because of shit-tier youtube channels pushing trash.
William Collins
right, they do this for some of those too
Nicholas Smith
they also do this whenever a large-scale channel regularly posts content that differs from the official, msm narrative.
I download all YouTube videos using YouTube-DLG or NewPipe so I don't see those messages. Good work on bringing it to my attention OP. Gather more examples and post them here to compile them into an infographic.
Back in the day, Tipper Gore pushed an effort to flag certain records for profanity. Afterward certain records had the "Explicit Lyrics" warning label slapped on them. Us young folks back then took the warning label as a seal of approval and would go out of our way to listen to those records. Think of the jewtube warning to be the modern version of this. The fact they bitch about it means you may want to pay more attention to what they want blocked.

only stuff like the USS liberty attack happened and that gets flagged too
This doesn't explicitly mention anything and CC is a corporate tier youtube channel that runs shit like pic related. CC is by no definition independent and has people to answer to
RT gets a banner telling you that it’s funded by the Russian government.
BBC doesn’t.

Everyone knows that JFK was assinated from the grassy knoll, there's photographic evidence of two unaccounted witnesses, also first hand accounts that another man was arrested at the movie theater, Jack Ruby's ties with the crime family, video evidence showing JFk's head being violently thrown back when he was shot in the head, Lee Harvy Oswald being a sheep dipped asset, being part of a communist meet in the middle of the US intelligence offices. Allen Dulles, and Lydon B. Johnson collaborated to kill him after JFK demonstrated his autonomy as a leader numerous times to the longstanding shadow government of our country. youtube.com/watch?v=PSQdnAcCbXI youtube.com/watch?v=veVqYo9I5gg
Nathan Johnson
yes they do the difference is they say that RT is funded by the Russian gov whereas they say BBC "receives public funding" they're both the same shit but wordplay makes it sound different see
that's the thing I know some people wouldn't pay any mind to them supposing that they were too retarded for anyone to spend time debunking like flat earth but its just more reason to pay attention to them
Ian Moore
good, force them to tag holocaust documentaries as conspiracy theories
Oliver Sanders
Good. That will help people to stay away from fake news.
If they were only applying the tag to video that were fake I'd be inclined to believe that but they so the same thing on videos that just mention it. Might be able to dismiss this as the work of an algorithm tho
Josiah Williams
problem is who decides what is truth and what isn’t.

About a year ago they were outright pulling down any video linked on Jow Forums. I personally saw it many times, a video would be shared on Jow Forums and within 5 minutes it would be down on Youtube. Sometimes the video was 6 years old or more.
They decided this censorship was too heavy handed, so they chose subtler methods. Limited state was introduced. This removed the view counter, related videos, and added a warning message, and also made the videos impossible to find through a search. They basically went through and put limited state on EVERY single right wing video they could find, even videos which had no apparent "hate speech" whatsoever. It got so bad even Paul Joseph Watson had like half his videos in limited state.
Then they started adding wikipedia articles to the bottom of "problematic" videos in order to "counter Russian disinformation". All of this is simply ways of Youtube censoring and oppressing certain points of view they don't like, probably with the intention of swinging election results (certainly attempting to meddle in the culture).
Not to mention all the underhanded manipulation going on behind the scenes. Algorithms which subtly steer viewers away from certain youtubers, so their audience base continually grows smaller and smaller. Or algorithms which "ghettoize" certain opinions, so they never go viral and reach a mass audience.
Sometimes if a video is going viral they don't like, they will suspend it arbitrarily, wait a designated length of time until the hype has passed, and then reinstate it "oops our bad sorry". So it never gets any wide reach and kills the meme.
All of this is the actions engaged in by Youtube and Google, and Republicans (who are the primary target behind this) do NOTHING. Because they are retarded fucking boomers with drool dripping down their faces who touch-type their keyboards. If you want any proof of this just watch the Zuckerberg hearings
