Okay, so, it always does this, but for some reason, it's been recommending me anti-woke stuff.

I'm pro-woke.

Why can't I see pro-woke stuff for once? You know, the other side of the story?

Come on, YouTube. Show me pro-woke news or stories or videos.

I'm Team Woke so show me woke videos in your recommendations.

Brother, watch the video, it is making fun of conservatives.

Thanks!

My apologies.

I, err, couldn't tell by the title.

There are a lot of stuff like this on the Internet.

Yeah sometimes the whole SEO make otherwise good content creators use cringe thumbnails to increase engagement. FD has a couple of videos/posts where he talks about this. But like others have said, he's good.

My apologies for jumping to conclusions.

I've seen a few videos lately in my recommendations that have titles like that or are by, say, Shadiversity and how YouTube is "killing them" or some shit (I hate Shadiversity).

Just to give some examples.

No investigation, no right to speak. Mods, get em

This is FD Signifier's second channel, I don't think he's anti-woke so it seems like clickbait to rope in conservative viewers

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Oho!

Are they, err, explicitly left-wing or are they the typical "non-political" channel that rails against "censorship"?

Either way, honestly, I feel like YouTube channels are getting worse.

This is what social media centralization has brought us: everything in the same place but it's all the same, has the same demographic (white male) and same "centrist" cold takes.

But yeah, I think I'm still experiencing shocks or a "hangover" (whatever you call it) from those two bad days.

I'm not sure if FD is a full communist but pretty sure he's at least anti-captialist and he has a lot of good critiques of masculinity and race.

Yeah bad sleeps will do that, I just finally got mine back to normal after a week of too short sleeps.

Ashwagandha.

That thing saved me in the end.

But I really should take a break from Tylenol PM; taking twice more than needed consecutively will, err, hurt my liver.

I guess I'll switch back to Melatonin if I need it.

The good news? I have sleep apnea.

That means I can get a CPAP machine and I'm going to do a sleep study soon, as a matter of fact.

Sorry about your own sleep, comrade.

Fd signifier is explicitly left wing.

And of course, the class character is staunchly privileged.

Sorry, I'm kinda pissed off right now, as you may be able to tell, 'cause I went through two days without sleeping well and now that I got good sleep last night, I seem to be in a "hangover" or in recovery mode from the feeling that that lack of sleep kept me in for those two days.

Is there a specific word for this?

[–] Aquilae@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

One could say that you're "woke" 🗿

I'm sorry

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

May God have mercy on your soul because the god Pluto certainly won't!

Don't worry, bud, it's fine.

If you thought it was bad, why would you link to it and make other people give them more views?
