Anyone who writes for WND can probably be counted as deeply disturbed. It's basically the Weekly World News version of reality except the fun stuff like Bat Boy is replaced by white genocide.

I haven't heard a whiff of WND since Breitbart and Daily Caller glitzed up the place with the same stuff but expressed with like one straining hinge

of course it's still there but wow, remember when it seemed like they were a much bigger chunk of online?

also I know Drudge Report still exists but it used to be like the main breaking news thing online until Twitter made the notion of F5ing a page every hour to see if something happened obsolete

lately I've been nostalgic for mid-00s internet but otoh it really was a lovely neoghborhood, wasn't it

Youtube agrees that Tommy Robinson's content is hateful and shouldn't represent the site, but they still want to keep it on their servers. They're fine hosting hateful content they just don't want to be judged over it. Google has no spine.

and don't perceive any cognitive dissonance between holding that a child should have two (opposite sex) parents and shaming someone for marrying a single parent

demonetization usually hurts enough to make a youtuber change their schtick- but that works for people who aren't ideologically committed to their content, I don't see Yaxley-Lennon rebranding to an anodyne cooking show or w/e

I don't think you understand Google's scale, at all. A Google representative recently had to explain this in Congress to Steve King when he was complaining about how negative searches are linked to Republicans, it's worth a watch.

So it's impossible for them to moderate, but somehow easy enough for a bunch of people on Reddit to steer the entirety of gaming videos on youtube towards "redpill" poo poo?

quote:

Ellen and Steven have now broken up. She has blocked him across all her social media accounts, and goes back home much less than she used to. Surprisingly, though, it wasn’t Ellen who broke up with Steven. After another fight over right-wing YouTube videos he sent her, he ended the relationship, claiming that Ellen was no longer intellectually stimulating for him. In fact, she was an “idiot” who was incapable of understanding the “facts” that are right in front of her.

She was left heartbroken. “I gave my whole self to him, to try help him, to support him. I compromised so much of my convictions and beliefs to help HIM. And he rejected all of it for these YouTube people. He rejected one of the only genuine relationships he had.”

For Sarah, similar feelings remain. Though she hasn’t been in contact with Craig for several months, reminders of him are everywhere, especially when she works on the computer they once shared. “I was listening to Coldplay when I was cleaning the other day,” she laughs. “And the next video YouTube had scheduled for me was one of these right-wing talk shows in America about how abortion clinics are being secretly funded by George Soros. I see these kind of videos on my recommended pages all the time.”

It turns out she can’t seem to escape them either.
