Antisemitic SponsorBlock Rule #3552

Open bitstarr opened 3 weeks ago

In this video https://youtu.be/-7zwpHp7tWQ SponsorBlock skipped the part about the Song from Eden Golan, the singer representing Israel at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.

This is absolutely inappropriate. Please correct the mechanism or rule that is responsible for this behaviour.

Eden Golan, the singer representing Israel at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.

People submit what they consider noise. That's not antisemitic, it's antinoise. The blocked segments are what the community flags as undesirable. Ads, propaganda, and the likes tend to be submitted.

If you want to see the junk embedded in videos you can disable the sponsorblocking. Can't force others to swallow the junk nor submitting what's perceived as such. Can't make others accept the influence of a certain minority view. For that there is vanilla YouTube already which slash certain views but keep a certain other one.
