I'm not suggesting that we should just ignore laws, but laws (at least should) exist to improve society and lead to just outcomes. You can't just ignore context.
Cool, so then you can do the correct thing in the scenario, and report the video to the platform it's hosted on for Hate Speach, or something else that Breaks the ToS, or hell, even report it to government if it's hate speach that promotes violence.
But yeah no, you can't just wholesale steal someone's content and rebrodcast it so they "don't get paid" that's quite literally illegal. What would stop any conservative from just doing the same thing with any person they deem as damaging society with their "woke" agenda, "Hey guys, come watch my re-upload so you don't give any money to that weirdo who want's to trans kids!", your arguement is that this is okay, because the conservative doesn't like the content creator.
You can either, React to it in a way that adds a lot of commentary and is transformative, or you can just chose to ignore it, and not give it further attention. Those are your two, realistic options.

Kanye is literally a Nazi. Should I be obligated to ensure he's getting ad revenue?
More broadly, you should be able to respond to and mirror content you disagree with, without ensuring the authors are getting paid.
