  8. Doesn't surprise me they allow gambling. They allow whores to dance around in panties in fornt of kids on there too. There is literally no streaming service that is ran by anyone with any integrity.

  10. On the topic of YouTube’s recommendations. Those sneaky fucks. You’ll block and click away all the unwanted garbage that pops into ones feed only to have it jammed in your search feed when you search for something completely unrelated. I kid you not videos about Tucker Carlson have popped up when I’m searching videos about god damn snow blowers. How was that fuck related to what I was searching for youtube?! I will actively get videos to channels I’ve actively blocked and told I do not want to see show to me there. It’s like they’re doing it on purpose lol.

  11. I like motorcycles and paintball but the second I watch any content like that all I get is a flood of alt-right, misogynist or crypto-bro content. It is like I am I not allowed to be left wing but also have hobbies?

  12. You're welcome. Thank you for continuing to put out content that I enjoy, you keep doing that and I will keep hitting that like button.

    I do not watch shorts on the other channels that I follow, it is not the content that I am looking for on this platform, if you start putting them out I will NOT watch them, thank you.
