Shame on @engadget@twitter.com and other sites for reporting on this. Every time something like this gets covered, ALL content creators suffer because big brands pull out of YT ads. https://www.engadget.com/2018/06/14/youtube-ads-aids-conspiracy-theory-videos/

2. A major publication blows it out of proportion because CLICKS
3. Companies pull out of YouTube ads
4. Your favorite YouTuber has to beg for money on Patreon to make rentXerz 💗 [UNMOVED] repeated this. -
