If it’s true that they have closed the radicalization rabbit hole then that is a huge achievement and very very good news.
Now that they've entrenched an entire alternative universe in an election-winning proportion of the population, they don't need it anymore.
Unless YouTube is going to be deliberately directing people to deprogramming content it's too late.
A lot of damage is done, certainly, but I think any success they have will depend on keeping up this bullshit. New voters are growing up all the time. The less chance for them to fall down the QAnon conspiracy after they just wanted to find some video game guide content, the better.
