Blanket ban. Even mentioning coronavirus can get your video demonitized. YouTube and Facebook have a significant problem of actual artificial conspiracy theories that have contributed to real death.

You mentioned this twice. "Contributed to real death." What do you mean specifically? Don't just use it as a scare quote.

It's not a good enough justification anyway.

Ashli Babbit, officer sicknick, and a few others all died due to a conspiracy theory spread on Facebook. Many others are threatened every day because of these conspiracy theories.

By this reasoning you could call critical race theory a conspiracy and say it "contributed to real death" through the 2020 summer protests and riots.

Untrue, but also off topic.
