My theory is that Covid killed everyone and this is purgatory. (TikTok screencap)

    I occasionally accidentally see YouTube “recommendations” and it’s usually unhinged right wing shit with millions of views.

    As someone who regularly watches my youtube recs, I never see this. Maybe it’s because youtube knows my preferences from watching their recommendations…

    On the other hand youtube is definitely trash that promotes fascism. So I’m not doubting you either.

    • Oh yeah I’m never logged into an account; so I when I see it, I see what it’s pushing as trending and popular. These days I use Freetube and only see what’s “recommended” by accident when I occasionally use YouTube on my iPad.

      When I used to use an account I also didn’t see any fascist shit either, so at least that’s a way to avoid it!
