Video title is:
One might more appropriately edit the title to read something like:
But OP saw fit to "ALL CAPS COUCH-F****R!" it.
I saw it. I know it. The title of this post is inappropriately editorialized.
You’re not the moderator of the community, so the “These guidelines will be enforced on a know-it-when-I-see-it basis” bit isn’t applicable to you.
I maintain that the live stream of a political rally doesn’t have a title, regardless of YouTube having a “Title” metadata field. As OP is directly linking to the primary source, the live-streamed rally, one could go as far as to argue that OP is the one reporting on this event to the community, in which case they aren’t editorializing they are just titling their own second-hand reporting on the event as they see fit.
Ultimately neither of our opinions on this matter, and regardless of which one of us is “right” we are both being needlessly pedantic. If the post is breaking a rule a community moderator will moderate it.
Since my reports do nothing here (I am not browsing from beehaw directly), we should see what those moderators have to say about it.

Late to the party. FWIW, I'm fine with the title for this post as well. I think @TheRtRevKaiser@beehaw.org has the right of it.
If you have issues in the future, please just report it. You can message us directly if for someone reason reports aren't working. We have fairly active and attentive moderation here.
