Which proves what one of the leakers interviewed by Veritas said about their general moderation bias, and most likely applies to all social media even before accounting for propaganda and manipulation. They intentionally gave moderation a left-leaning bias to keep the user base as large as possible. The Left is full of whiny babies who block, flag, scream, and eventually leave the platform if they don't get their way. The Right engages in debate, mocks, or ignores, only blocking when personally harassed.
So moderation is tilted to possibly offend a smaller number of conservatives who will stay no matter what, and avoid offending the larger number of leftists and liberals - including celebrities and politicians that twitter courted - who will leave for competitors or stir up controversies in their influence networks when unhappy. Nobody listens when conservatives complain about bias anyway. "Lol private company bro." But piss off enough liberals and suddenly the Washington Post runs a story "Is Jack Dorsey secretly a Nazi?"
I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of those corporate news sources are paying YouTube big money under the table, just like the celebrity twitter blue-checks were doing.
Well, Google owns YouTube. It's all one big system. The media, the big investment banks, big tech, legacy MSM, legacy government. It's the corporate managerial state.
Explains why the platform still relentlessly promotest leftoids. Conservatives don't block.

And yet that's our go-to suggestion for people malding about mean words online
