I'm with you, there is nothing in there that should consititue hate speach in any juristicion I am aware of. Either external bots are targeting something, or the Youtube AI is.

The AI ​​probably looks for video titles, maybe we should title it something like "cute gray tiger with elephant tattoo splashes in water". Your Tiger is beautiful by the way.

I see the AI possibility but why would they the re-instate the video? Somebody had to make that decision. Just curious.
Thank you Kaczor and you have a great idea. I might even get more views with that title.

I have now also had a video of my Tiger 1 tank removed. Tried twice to get a reason but no answer other than it was against the rules.

I think it's very important to write RC in the title of the video, but whether that's enough is impossible to answer.....

Now I just had a video removed for hate speech for my 1/6th paintball Sturmtiger. No mention of German and no markings on it. In fact it was in primer for that video. It was up for 17 years and the funny thing is they didn't touch the other similar videos of the same tank. I appealed it, but this is just stupid. I have videos taken at the museum of people coming out of a German marked Czech OT half-track wearing German uniforms doing a reenactment and that video didn't get removed.

They also reinstated my video yesterday after it was reviewed. Isn't AI great?

Ah yes. Let's report this channel for no reason at all! Our young ones can't see what Hitler was doing!
