King 810's Music Video "Killem All" Deleted by YouTube for "Hate Speech"

It seems like YouTube's unpredictable, inconsistent enforcement of its content policies has finally begun to affect music as the band King 810 just had their music video for their song "Killem All" deleted with a strike given to their channel. Although the video does have violent content, violence was not the reason YouTube cited for issuing the content strike. Instead, YouTube claimed that King 810's music video contained "hate speech." Going by YouTube's own definition of hate speech, I cannot find any such content in neither King 810's video, nor their lyrics. If YouTube is in fact loosening up their definition of what hate speech actually entails, this could have dire effects on metal and hardcore music as well as YouTube content as a whole. I believe that this is part of a misguided overcorrection for the reason Logan Paul controversy, much like Matpat predicted in is Game Theorists video, "It's Time to STOP the Logan Paul Loophole (MatPat Reaction)." 💸 Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/whang 💸 Patreon Shout Outs: 👼Fae Rie 🐩Murfy Murf 🎤Let's Have a Discussion 🍁Jason Verhoek 🐙Whang!
