My guess is InRange is to blame in your case. In my experience, youtube has an "engages in political content" bucket they can put people in that doesn't discriminate between the flavor of politics; watch any sort of political content and it will start recommending any sort in turn, even political content from viewpoints you cannot stand and would never watch. I guess a lot of people rage-watch political content they dislike, so this sort of category makes practical sense for youtube. This happened to me a few times. Thankfully, clearing cookies is an easy fix for me since I don't use an account; people who do may have to spend some time sanitizing their view history. I now avoid all content that has even a whiff of content that might be automatically classified as political advocacy. I still watch occasional FW videos, although not the ones where I think he'll discuss firearm laws, and InRange is out because Karl too frequently discusses the law and political landscape w.r.t. online privacy/etc. Since reaching the above conclusion and making these changes, my front page has been clear of anything with even a suggestion of partisan politics. It's all machine and mechanism videos, the way I like it. (Except for the occasional grossout pimple video in the search results, but that's another story...)
