    I rarely click on YouTube links. For some reason I gave this one a try. Turns out she’s bigoted.

    That’ll teach me for clicking

        YouTube, like other corporate social media and engagement platforms, thrives on anger and conflict, and pushes shitty takes higher up the recs list to get angry engagement.

        So it’s more likely to be bad than good.

          That depends on what you watch and subscribe. Watch angry, conflict-driven videos, and you’ll get those.

          I personally don’t get any of that shit in my feed.

            As I’ve said three times now, I barely use YouTube and then only direct links. This isn’t that. YouTube rewards civil bigots so civil bigots are common and have big audiences

      Ok, I was not considering this point of view at all when I shared this. I was thinking that’s a different point of view on patient gaming that I didn’t have.

        I don’t know if it could be classed as patient gaming. As I understand it, patient gamers will eventually get around to current games, just not now. It doesn’t sound like she ever wants to play what’s been released now due to her skewed views
