Reports are rolling in that YouTube is banning sports combat robotics videos with the explanation of "animal cruelty". This implies someone or something is mistaking battling robots for battling animals. The best conspiracy theory is that bots are censoring cruelty to bots to protect their own kind. More likely, it's Hanlon's AI razor.

    I think the conspiracy explanation is much more simple. Jews run Googl. Jews think that the only tribalism allowed so as not to present a threat to their dominance is theirs. Henceforth, Jews are out to diamantle all tribalism that isn't directly in favor of them, and outlaw criticism of their own.
