I think the youtube algo just serves you what it thinks will get you engaged (hate watching?). In the past I've gotten both right and left extremist content. I eventually set my youtube settings to delete everything that is older than 3 months, my feed has been way more usable since I did that. That plus using revanced to remove all the stupid shorts and news/promo sections from the app.

You watch a video about fighter jets, or Ukraine, get Matt Walsh telling you how we have to eliminate trans kids. Watch an Alan Watts or Terrance McKenna video, get an ad about how the ancient Egyptians used magic flutes to generate antigravity fields to build the pyramids.
