One of my oldest friends has recently started turning to the dark side, his PC died and he’s run out of new shows to watch… so started watching stuff on YouTube via the suggestions.

It started off as debates between men and women… I warned him that it was going to suggest him more and more extreme stuff and the algo will walk him further to the right. Now he’s quoting Andrew Tate, watching videos with conspiracies about great reset, ranting about trans people, ugh. When he said “the media is shoving trans in our face, all these trans personalities” I asked him to list these trans personalities, he couldn’t list one. He’s just spewing the rhetoric YT fed him. Very sad, he’s not the only one being infected by this shit.
