"Returned Error" I think can mean that you've left the page open long enough for your connection to the server from that page to expire. You might also notice comments fail to load in that case. Try reloading the video page and posting the comment. (In general a good idea to compose long comments in notepad or something so that the webpage doesn't lose what you're writing on you.)

No, the comment shows on my end as being posted, and gives me the option to edit it.
But if I reload the page or edit it, it's gone. It's clearly the algorithm wiping it out.
I've even checked the # of comments at the top of the section and seen it decrease by 1 once I reload the page to find my comment gone.
And yeah, I try re-posting it. Happens every time. Sometimes I try to trouble shoot by pasting one line at a time to figure out which one(s) causes the problem, but that's really tiresome. Plus the more you re-post the same comment, the more likely youtube is to think you're a bot/spammer, so you just can't win.

that's probably the channel, not youtube. I pointed out that a certain channel was using DK Jungle Japes theme as their intro and my comments kept disappearing. that channel says that the delete anything that "isn't relevant to the video".

It's definitely not the channel doing it. It's happened to me on all sorts of channels, including some that are politically incorrect and don't give a shit about language used.
And again, if you look at the top comments in that very video, there are people using the word "murder", mentioning that the psycho w/ a gun "shot them in the back", and so on. So it's not even a uniform enforcement / tied to specific bad words (which really aren't, but you know...). Literally some users have more freedom of speech than others.
