I feel its just a general recommendation when it cant figure out whats related to ur vid

for example if u check youtube with no subscriptions etc it recommends you shit like Dr. Phil and Jimmy Kimmel and saturday night live and shit, just normie channels

realistically its like "oh, game? oh yes i no know what game, i relate to cartoon!!"

im pretty sure this is a giant youtube glitch or something. its been happening to me a lot lately and its really fucking annoying. and its consistantly been this childrens shit so idk what is actually going on. random videos i've clicked on have had this shit all down the sidebar, usually youtube likes to have videos recommended to you, as apposed to just videos recommended because of the video which leads me to believe this is a stupid glitch. first saw it around april 1st so i thought it was the worlds worst april fools joke. I just wish that even if the glitch persists, it would atleast be something tolerable instead of this kiddy shit.

See a buddy of mine (Who is pretty left) gets bombed with right wing bullshit all the time to the point that he swears up and down it's a conspiracy

I just assumed YouTube recommended political videos because he watches political videos and nothing more, but that is odd if its a thing that's been happening to people.

For the record I'm a registered independent who watches a lot of review/essays on YouTube; most of which are made by folks who lean liberal so that's where I figured those recommendations where coming from. Makes much more sense then this parade of YouTube KiDs

I'm often scared to view certain videos because I don't want ten recommended videos based on said video. I just want to watch a video every now and then and move on. But, I'm happy with my recommended videos right now.

I'd watch them anyway and just make a post whining about it if it was me.

Probably YouTube is constantly under fire for its algorithm so they said screw it and just recommend kid friendly stuff to everyone
Personally I feel like the algorithm is too dynamic & tries to pull you into other parts of the site rather than showing you more of what you like which is stupid

Well, at least it isn't suggesting Bee movie memes to everyone.

Or the turning a sphere inside out video.

Or anything from the infographics show.
