> I just think this reads like they're heading down a slippery slope.

Standing reminder: the "slippery slope" is a fallacy, not an argument. You can do one thing without doing every possible further step past that thing.

You might be right. I'm not sufficiently knowledgeable about YouTube to argue whether or not Google's new censorship policies are quickly getting out of hand. But, someone like Tim Pool seems to be quite well informed on that subject, and he makes a compelling case.

Believing every slippery slope to be a fallacy is itself a fallacy.

The same goes with conspiracy theories. They aren't all wrong!
