@MikeJones-mf2fw Well, the removals clearly aren't by a human, as no one can read them that fast (they are gone in under 30sec). I also am quite certain they aren't reviewed by one, either, as there have been removed comments which were not related to anything going on in the world...
Granted, most that get removed HAVE indeed been in relation to the war that started in February, two years ago. (which I'm pretty sure a certain country's troll farm workers are who flagged me in the first place, as I didn't have this issue until more recently)
But yea, it's infuriating, to put it mildly.
Politically, I'm aligned with the opposite party than what I'm sure 90% here are aligned with... heh I only mention that so that you can tell others that the Elephants aren't the only ones this happens to. 🥴

@teddy.d174 Yea, there's loads of us, which is how I know that for many of us it's due to being likely reported by said trolls, as everyone I've encountered with this issue have been people commenting on various independent news channels (giving daily/weekly updates on the conflict) and we all show/express support for 💙💛.
My suspicion is that they flag our comments, but that they don't get reviewed by humans due to the sheer volume. That is left to their automated system to deal with. We don't get put in actual "YT jail" (which one person said she has been a few times now), but it can't just "do nothing" and so it takes action by simply hiding our comments (they're technically not deleted, they're still in our comment history; accessible via Settings > Your Data in YouTube > Comments}.
This is what some people call being "Shadow 🩹" – that's a ....-aid 😉 as to invoke what I'm talking about lol
But yea, further proof that they're only hidden is that you still get reply alerts to the comment threads where yours was removed, because it's not really gone, just invisible to everyone. It's also why you can still navigate to the specific comment through the aforementioned comment history, as that gives your a direct link to that comment.
Basically it's set to "not public", in the same way a video can be set to not be public, but you can still share the link to it and people can watch it that way.
Wouldn't surprise me if there's even a Reddit support group for all of us... 🥴
