Where clicking one right-wing video would result in your entire YouTube front page being filled with nonsense from grifters like Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson.

it still is, they've just moved even more heavily into culture vulture shit instead of directly talking about politics. i do think it has lost some degree of prominence though, people are very slowly starting to get tired of the eternal braindead pro sjw - anti sjw war

Only if Joe Rogan counts. I remember when clips of his made up like 1/3 of all my recommended videos despite never once listening to him.

With the whole CoryxKenshin stuff and the Act Man stuff it seems to be actually growing now that youtube themselves seem to actively believe they're profitable.

I never click on right wing shit but when I watch left wing videos it often shows me right wing ads

Anything that is talking about politics will do it. YouTube ad algorithm is fucked up. Lost count of the times I will be watching a video tearing into something and then an ad is pro that something or someone. I keep getting an ad for that "what is a woman" anti trans "documentary "

I mean it does happen everytime you watch a subject, but I've had my feed flooded with all kinds of subjects after one watch.

That sucks. If I see any right wing videos I basically immediately click don't recommend this channel. I rarely ever get recommended them.

Remember? It's still going on there and on many other site and it's a big factor in the increasing insanity of our country/world. All done intentionally by these large corporations of course.

It also seems that more and people are fed up with the current political climate that they're finally starting to fucking wise up.
