It tries to get you to watch as much YouTube as it can, period. It takes things you watch and finds things that other people view that watch what you do.

People in general spend more time watching stuff they agree with thanks to confirmation bias.


I think you're conflating two things here. It's true that Youtube's algorithm is agnostic to whether something is far right, far left, etc. But there are a lot more alt-right people whose channels are made up of fifty minute videos where they talk about X,Y, and Z. There isn't nearly as much content available for far left people to get politically rabbithole'd by on Youtube.
