Especially with those two, yes, what you are recommended and who you subscribe to or follow is heavily in your hands. Stop interacting with the content you so much despise. It's not even "shield yourself from it somewhat", you can totally avoid such content. It's very much telling me more about the person than the platform, if they're logged in.
However, without logging in YouTube does tend to suggest the most popular content in the region, but in the US that's mostly just bad prank channels, pop music and some major US news channels.
