If Republicans continue to spread dangerous lies and falsehoods, tantamount to falsely claiming a theater is on fire, YouTube should push back. If Republicans post policy proposals or comments on cultural issues, YouTube shouldn’t. Courts in the real world have already addressed this issue, YouTube is catching up to the extant rules of society, not making new ones.

Courts have addressed the issue indeed. The reason youtube is acting independently is because this is way beyond what courts have decided is dangerous speech. If this was driven by courts, they would have an order to show it.
