I never click on them and I don’t consume any other content related to those countries but every so often I’ll see an anti (those countries) headline in my feed and then the next few days will have pro occupied China stories
It feels like targeted propaganda since I never see good stories about the other countries and it makes me wonder why YouTube hasn’t been broken up if they are too big to monitor that
I recommend block tube on desktop. It’s a great extension. It’s been the best way to get back some control over the algorithm, which can suck if you use YouTube logged in and without an account sucks too with what tends to trend.
