Every now and then I get this itch to try and engage with politics youtube, if only to try to understand what in the hell other people see in them. And every time I watch them, I think they suck ass, that the people who make the content seem like they suck ass, that the audiences seem like they suck ass, and I become more misanthropic.
From a sheer strategic standpoint, it seems like the worst thing you could do is form a strong association between your politics and the most annoying people and interactions on the internet. It seems guaranteed to lead to burn-out.
