It would help if one side of the aisle didn't continue to stand behind a conspiracy theory that has failed in court _many_ dozens of times, now.

From what I understand, the majority of the lawsuits were dismissed for lack of standing not evidentiary reasons.

I doubt that it would help; I don’t think failing in court will be YouTube’s standard. As so many comments remind us, they’re a private company. They don’t have to wait for a court’s opinion.

I also think no left-of-center conspiracy theory would be thrown off YouTube, even if it failed in court.

Maybe this is great, I don’t make any value judgment. It’s just a bet. Take my money if I’m wrong.

Was that a conspiracy theory, and had it failed in court?
