All of a sudden, Youtube's been pushing a lot more right-wing shit into my recommended videos. (hexbear.net)

In the past few days, it's recommended:

Some guy saying vegan diets don't work (news to me, considering I've been on one for years)
A different guy complaining about PETA's new game
A woman saying women in modern games are too ugly
The same woman saying women don't really want to be in charge of anything
Some bullshit from ShoeOnHead
Paul Joseph Watson

Not sure where this all came from. I'd actually enjoyed a very long, pleasant streak where it wasn't recommending me any of this trash. Now they're coming out of the woodwork. Every time I see one of these videos I click the "don't recommend this" button, but there are always more.

That seems to be the default for Youtube shorts if you log out of your account. The longer-form videos being pushed are mostly vapidly annoying shit like Mr. Beast or Sssniperwolf.

Prager U and Daily Wire + ads have been everywhere lately with them proudly showing off that stupid movie nobody's going to watch.
