    Youtube is as Normie as you can get with the younger generation (the biggest allies of stopping climate change). And of course it isn’t going to be rational. There is nothing rational about this. It is to invoke an emotional response and that’s what you see in the comment section.

    I’m sorry, but only radicalized individuals have any sympathy for the Just Stop Oil protesters.

      No, youtube is a breeding ground for idiots when it comes to politics. Every comment and every dislike gives a video impressions so that the algorithm shows it to others. Youtube makes bank with hatret just as fox news does. You can bet that all the jzst stop oil clips will be shown to a audience that hates rhem more than people who feel indifferent about them or agree with them. Why? Because they dont comment on the videos.

      These people hate what they see but still watch it and then comment on it so youtube shows them more off it.
