    "Don't Be Evil"

    (I know this hasn't been the Google motto in years -- when it stopped was one of the biggest corporate red flags)

      Good.

      Let people say what they want and you can ignore them if you don't like what's being said.

      I recommend you take strides to learn how propaganda works, most specifically the purpose of shifting opinion (i.e. the Overton Window): "I'm just asking questions" and "I'll let anyone speak" are two of the most effective methods of propaganda.

        Some of those, particularly Odysee and Rumble have much worse Nazis. They are the platforms of choice for British National Socialist Movement and Patriotic Alternative.

              Wish I could say I'm surprised, but I've had this exact thing happen to me several times. Sometimes they've even had slurs in their profile image or banner too.

                Cant help you with this specific type of content, but you could use Invidious.io to watch YouTube Videos. Still better than nothing. No Google API, No Tracking, no Ads and pre installed SponsorBlock.

                Thanks. I can def do that on my phone. Don’t know much about how to do it on Apple TVs or Rokus but I very seldom use them for YouTube anymore anyway.

                  Your problem is that you want to censor ideas you don't like.

                  You want to control what other people think by dictating what they get to see and what they're allowed to share with others.

                  You are going to grasp at whatever straw you can to get rid of people saying things you don't like.

                    This is a natural result of media controlled by corporate interests. It's also a misunderstanding of "free speech" -- even when you are free to say what you will, it does not mean you are free from the consequences of that speech.

                    You want to control what other people think by dictating what they get to see and what they're allowed to share with others.

                    Again, I suggest looking into how propaganda works. Letting everyone speak about anything (without vetting of topic, qualifications, or direction) has consequences. We are seeing those consequences now and will continue to see more as the propaganda machine runs wild on the back of "let everyone speak".

                    Your view of this is overly simplistic and I am, in the most polite way, attempting to direct you to self improvement. It is a common issue at the moment across all discourse -- probably vestigial of the information sharing capabilities now available.

                      I tried giving you an opportunity, but I'm going to block you now.

                      You people will just respond incessantly until you get what you want, so I'm going to let you have the last word.

                      Goodbye.

                              That is why centralized platforms, especially powerful ones, are sitting ducks waiting to become even more corrupt. Why more people are not leaving centralized services is a crime against humanity as it is clear that supporting theme means society suffers.

                                  Except I do, because I don't have off site storage. 3-2-1 my friend. If my house burnt down, without the cloud storage I'd lose everything. Separate local copies is good for defending against disk failure.

                                  If your data isn't worth a few bucks to secure maybe it isn't worth the redundancies in the first place. Keep making excuses and hope they keep allowing you to access your data "for free" or at all.

                                    And people judged me for watching YouTube with uBlock Origin, or via NewPipe for eons.

                                    Look who's laughing now.

                                      dumpstering Tesla and calling it a worthless stock.

                                      Oh, so it's just wall street dick sucking and pretending the whole "market" isn't just a rigged game? Counts as right-wing slop to me.

                                      Is that the platforms fault?

                                      Considering we have a fuck-ton of evidence from research that it isn't just what other people watch that determines it: Yes, it is actually. Sorry these aren't fucking videos so that you'll actually pay attention to them.

                                        Judging a captive market for not being able to break free from a monopoly is just another firm of oppression, buddy.

                                          I remember the pre-Youtube internet where we created content because it was fun or educational, not because we needed money for the task of doing so.

                                          Paying for server costs and maintaining them, sure. MetaFilter has a good system for that, they're effectively a non-profit and have a donation structure and paid admins and moderators. The rest of the people on the site, they just make good content for the sake of making good content, not because they feel the need to be paid for their time doing it.

                                          God I miss the pre-Youtube era. "Content creators" looking for a payday via advertising are a fucking cancer.

                                          I subscribe to a lot of full time "content creators" that are ad supported and supported via donations.

                                          I curate my feed meticulously to avoid slop, and I get a lot of value, learning and entertainment from those I follow.

                                          I believe they deserve to be paid for the tremendous amount of work they put in.

                                          Some sort of ability to generate a livable wage from creating high quality content seems reasonable, no?
