My dad uses it to get fascist/right-wing propaganda for about 4 hours every night. All nicely monetized for any grifter willing to debase themselves for a potential fortune. Truly novel, but not well thought through or done with any care at all besides profits which is par for the course in silicon valley.

Your idea of fascism must be rather tame, considering YouTube’s active censorship of anything even slightly right-of-center.
It hardly needs to be violently racist or whatever conception you have in your mind to be fascist propaganda. Rather the opposite if you take a minute to consider what makes for effective propaganda.
The word fascism needs to stop being tossed around so carelessly. Words ought to be precise and meaningful.
You sound radicalized.

What do you watch? Sounds like we need to ban it.

Tech companies should spend more time banning people from talking about things I would personally prefer they didn't.
