Did a whole bunch of right wing money flood into Youtube trying to influence culture? Or am I jumping at shadows?

Suddenly my Youtube ads are all “Real men protect women and wear this tactical hoodie!” and Youtube thinks I want to watch Matt Walsh’s transphobic documentary. Emotionally, it feels like they’re throwing salt in my wounds while I’m just trying to watch my astrophysics Youtubers and escape.

    I don’t see ads on YouTube with uBlock origin. However, if you go for more than 8-10 youtube shorts, you will start getting more and more right-wing shorts peppered in.
