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 tried looking for positive stories about trans people to show one of my friends who was going down a conservative transphobic rabbit hole.

    I couldn’t for the life of my find anything other than videos by Fox News, Ben Shapiro and other conservative talking heads and alt-right conspiracy accounts.

    Then I later found out through an article of an online magazine about one trans teen person who said their YouTube channel was being banned and an their content blocked. They were just videos of their daily lives as a trans person and the challenges they faced.

    Social networks receive money by powerful conservative media groups to push their content up and establish policies in their favor.
