YouTube loves recommending conservative vids regardless of your beliefs

That's because this sub and its sources are too goddamn blind to realize that your YT feed is determined by what you're looking at. You don't just get random right-wing stuff recommended, safe for some regrettable losses, you'd have to explicitly seek out the specific content you want to be looking at.

People not curating their frontpage don't get to complain about "YT recommending nazi channels" or some nonsense. Neither is it making monetization options easy on those because no fucking brand really wants to associate with any of this sketchy stuff, hence the shitty idiot sponsorships right-leaning tubers tend to get. Sad news is that mega-fucks like Nerdrotic (and whoever in the world decided to make patreon money by yelling "woke entertainment" a lot) are getting supported by assholes who think spraying spit all over the Internet because Hollywood won't stop hiring waman is a reasonable take people want to listen to, so great, that model can backfir too.
