I am reminded of the videos we have probably all seen of Flat Earthers doing experiments that are supposed to show whether the Earth is curved, the experiment does show a curve, and then they start to question why their experiment is failing rather than question their beliefs. Beliefs are a pretty strong thing.

It is much easier to stop harmful ideas from spreading rather than trying to argue down these harmful ideas once they have already taken a foothold in someone's mind.

I know at lest 2 flat earthers who were given anti-psychotic medication and stopped being flat earthers.

It’s fucking terrifying that anyone holds this view, considering the implications. That’s CCP logic. Pro-censorship, “for their own good”?

Have we lost our fucking minds?

[wwright]

Do you think Germany lost their fucking minds when they outlawed Holocaust denialism?

You have full access to facts here. Nothing is being truly hidden. Hell, all of these videos can still be shared a million other ways. It’s insane, systematic misinformation that YouTube doesn’t want to actively help spread.
