YouTube welcomes election misinformation again

Conspiracy sports is quite entertaining; why it has ever been banned is beyond me. I realize some people think it's real just like there are some people who think that WWE is "real wrestling" but those people are blessedly few and easy to identify and dismiss. YouTube is a time-sink with ads: bring in the wild conspiracies: it's an easy way for me to remember I'm not craziest person in the room.

How else would CIA and other government agencies disseminate propaganda and disinformation (e.g., "How the Military Is Using E-Girls to Recruit Gen Z into Service"[1])? Gotta keep people sheep so they can be herded (see also, Edward Bernays[2]).
