I accidentally watched some youtube shorts and algorithm pushed a ahort about elon and then some shorts about tate . The comment section was acting like they were gods among men and everyone was wanting to be like them or praising them or wanting to follow them .etc . Do they only know who these people are from shit like shorts or reels and not anything else ? I think most of em are teenage boys . It was kinda disturbing anyway what are your thoughts ?

You seem to have stumbled into the Man-O-Sphere. They win when young men watch them, they win when others bring them up to discuss how terrible they are. I shouldn't even know who 'Tate' is.

Good luck unfucking your algorithm.

For real, doing a double take on one video can leave their shit popping up in your feed for weeks (on pretty much any social media site). Gotta be quick on the trigger to avoid that stuff

I use pipepipe without account so no algorithm just started watching some shorts and they showed one of his in similar and went to see him getting trashed and was kinda disturbed .

It's easy, first disable youtube history, then clear it, then enable it and search one video you like, watch it for 15 seconds, then disable youtube history again.

Now it will base off of your subscriptions.
