Something all people need to acknowledge. 'Big Social Media' is a gatekeeper. It matters not if you're pro-Ukraine, anti-Ukraine, or pro-Putin or Anti-Putin.
As the OP states, the censorship has nothing to do with the content. The videos merely run afoul of some arcane algorithm that is set up by that member of 'Big Social Media'.
One example of an arcane algorithm (on Reddit, this time): A text posting which contains "too few words" and "a link" is automatically removed. Looks like we might need to start adding a 'Lorem Ipsum' to the end of our postings.
If we give the 'Big Social Media' boys the power to remove, censor, or alter our posts, we have nobody to blame but ourselves. There is nobody forcing us to use Social Media on a daily basis. Have we no will-power to desist from doing so?
