    recently youtube shorts started recommending me “alpha male” andrew tate videos despite me constantly ticking the “don’t recommend this channel again” posts and i guess in response spotify is now recommending me Karl Marx audiobooks

      This is hilarious. I hope their code is literally something like

      if (user.pref == hate("andrew tate") 
{ 
    user.is = "communist";
}

      I wouldn’t even be mad.

      If youtube figures out that you’re a single male, nothing will stop then from throwing Andrew Tate and other right wing garbage in your feed. Literally as soon as I got into a relationship I immediately stopped getting them. Now I get weird relationship based stuff. But it was so bad, I blocking channels but new channels kept getting in there.
