    Yikes. Yeah, there is apparently something with the algorithm that tries to send you down that rabbit hole.

    I used to watch canning or gardening videos (ok and maybe a few self sufficiency videos) and started getting recommended religious preppers

    Also gaming in general can be a pipeline.

      I hate that gaming interests does that. It’s annoying and lame AF. I love video games, does not mean I’m interested in right wing shenanigans! One can be a leftie and still like video games 😭

      And I’m not surprised regarding self-sufficiency and religious preppers; very US bible belt, end-of-times shite. Why does every innocent interest or hobby have to be taken over by fucking weirdos!? 😭😭😭
