Went to YouTube to find the George HW Bush baseball meme. The search term pops up but the result is nowhere to be seen. Eight videos of bush doing the first pitch and then snl sketches. Went to google, similarly no results. Went to duckduckgo and got it immediately.
Like shits unusable, if someone dislikes a video and has money they absolutely can get it taken off the search systems most people use.
Yep, it was an announced change, and since then almost every leftist video will autoplay John Oliver (if it was comedy), MSNBC (if it wasn't) or often Tucker Fucking Carlson (if YouTube is feeling sadistic, or if the topic is dominated by right wingers, like CRT or something)
Like imagine, just imagine trying to "deradicalize" your content by switching users from some harmless YouTube socdem to insane white nationalist great replacement theory Tucker Fucking Carlson.
