"You"Tube. What a joke. I've been active on YouTube since 2006. Back then I would watch and make comedy videos, but around 2008 I found a love for the political / philosophical side of YouTube. Back then there used some brilliant debates among communities, and I credit early YouTube for being a huge influence on my political views today. It helped me develop an open mind and critical thinking skills that I find immensely valuable in my life today. But today there isn't really any interesting debates there anymore. I've noticed the algorithms push certain views on me and the creators I like who speak against the YouTube's political views get their lives made very difficult through demonetisations, channel strikes, algorithm discrimination or straight up banning.
