  1. That's a good way to go when it comes to YT. I watch it all the time, but am very selective about what I watch. If you go just by the posts on Trump (for or against) is a good example. I scroll through the recommendations by YT, and read the title of the recommended video, right now, a lot of push back (or seems anyway) against Trump but meanwhile, no one is putting him in jail and letting the whole thing with him being president commence, so I DO hope the videos that proclaim pushback that could stop Trump materialize, but then again, posts that show they possibly are for him, I just move on past. It now takes being a critical thinker, sadly, it's becoming not a thing for many folks. I'm old enough to have learned how to be critically thinking and not take stuff at face value. Also, I think being neurodivergent helps.

  2. Not only that, but it's passive aggressive. It's become down to "not wanting to hurt people's feelings, so why not just dance around the bush? As a nuerodivergent person, I let it be known more directly, but with some form of tact (had to learn that as an adolescent). Don't believe in conspiracy theories, being all bleeding heart, passive aggressive etc. Just be honest and let it be known more directly is all. If more neurotypical folks did that, things would not be so bad as they are currently.
