YouTube feeds me so much right wing bullshit I'm constantly marking it as not interested. It's a definite problem.
It's amazing how often I get a video from some right wing source suggested to me companting about censorship and being buried by youtube. I ended up installing a third party channel blocker to deal with it.
I can't prove that they were related but I used to report all conservative ads (Hillsdale Epoch times etc) to Google with all caps messages how I was going to start calling the advertisers directly and yell at them for the ads, about 2-3 days after I started doing that the ads stopped.
I would love for other people to start doing this to confirm that it works and to be free of the ads.
I purchased a flannel and a top water lure online from Rural King and didn't realize it came with an extra month of right wing conspiracy ads. I report the ads but they just keep coming.
Can you try my method and see if it works? I am really curious

That worked for me also. I like a lot of sports docs on YouTube. That triggered non stop Joe Rogan suggestions and ads for all kinds of right wing news trash.
I quit drinking years ago and I reported every (e alcohol) ad explaining that I am no longer their target market and the ads are literally dangerous to me. They were gone within a few weeks - haven't seen a booze ad in 5+ years.
Is fucking insane how much that happens I stopped using Instagram for that reason at least yt listened to my "not interested" choices. I also have revnaced so IDK what ads it would shoot at me.
YouTube started feeding me that stuff too. Weirdly once I started reporting all of them as misinformation they stop showing up for some reason...
