I’ve seen this repeated a ton, so looked into it for myself, especially the “Bill Gates influence” angle.
I don’t buy it.
They aren’t perfect, but every Kurzgesagt video I’ve seen is above par for YouTube. And on the few topics I already knew something about, they seem to cover stuff well.
The criticism, on the other hand, was (to me) entirely unconvincing when investigated. It was mostly “I personally don’t like the agenda these facts point to.”
EDIT
And all that aside:
No one should be banned for the wrong reason.
If Kurzgesagt should be taken down, it shouldn’t be from a dysfunctional AI detection filter. It should be over whatever they actually did wrong.
