That, along with deleting my Facebook account are two of the best things I did for my mental health.
I know where you're coming from, but with regards to the political youtubers, I find them very useful for catching up on the BS when it happens without having to necessarily endure the fake surreality of regular news shows. The regular news shows are sadly now spamming youtube making it very difficult to find actual opinions rather than sanitised diarrhoea.
And watching a cross-section of opinions is quite an enjoyable way to go about it, I find it only gets tedious if you always watch the same people banging the same drum day-in day-out.
A bit like here really
Hence why we all take little breaks here and there, but come back when we're in the mood again.
For example, While searching google for Avellone content I stumbled across an old youtuber I hadn't seen for a while: Angry Joe. Someone I think @joxer; used to link to quite regularly. Well it seems in the past few days 'some woman' has tried to MeToo him as well, only apparently with even more obvious disingenuity:
And apparently chess is now racist? This lady thinks not:
And apparently The Last of Us 2 devs wanted to compare their game to Schindler's List! ? ! ? ! LOL:
But it turns out it was just another generally average game:
And none of these are even really political channels per-se, it's just that the BS is so rampant at the moment as a whole in our society that it's fairly unavoidable.
But like I say, I'll probably dip out of it again for a bit and post here again for a bit, then somewhere else, then back to youtube, etc etc etc.
The last time I was checking out the daily BS on Youtube it was trying to find out how Woody Allen's latest movie is doing, which is not at all in America, but in the rest of the world it's been a huge lockdown hit. The 'hip' reviewers are bombing it, but, interestingly, virtually the only youtube vid about it at that point was a very positive one that has lots of positive comments:
And that's the kind of stuff that all keeps Youtube the great Youtube it can and should be, not just another portal for organised propaganda.
