It's not harmful to watch Alex Jones videos, lizard people videos, deep state conspiracy videos. This premise should be rejected outright. It is more harmful to be watching videos about religion, astrology, etc. In some cases, these are mainstream belief systems that have caused countless death, destruction, financial ruin for thousands of years. This sudden interest in harm reduction is disingenuous and conveniently selective.

If you are not treating these videos as harmful, do not waste my time with blatant politics disguised as sanctimonious harm reduction.

As a new YouTube user why am I recommended 100% of comedians and channels who have identical politics? What are the odds?

All extreme ideology and ideologues - left, right, up down, are poisonous and divisive. They should be treated equally, not selectively.
