There are a lot of terms they mentioned that aren't political though. Blocking terms like "Muslim Fashion" doesn't seem defensible. > actually appreciate it that YouTube seems to suppress ads that target political topics I think that youtube should be suppressing shitty adds, not potentially decisive content. The way they are currently handling the situation signals to creators from marginalized groups that they should not talk about substantive issues if they want to get paid. This is disheartening as it is ironic because Google (and literally every other mega corporation) tries to posture themselves as being socially conscious, but as soon as people want to talk about injustice or inequality, they are essentially soft-deplatformed. > even if the blocklist is still incomplete I might be a little cynical, but I feel like it is complete because it's working the way they want it to. The one-sidedness of the blacklist doesn't tell me that google is discriminatory. It tells me that the companies buying ads are discriminatory, and google changes their policies to make them happy. Google's tacit acceptance of prejudice tells me everything I need to know about their principals.
