I was looking up footage of the ICE LA thing the other day and about 2/3 comments are just “HELL YEAH! THIS IS WHAT I VOTED FOR! KICK THESE CRIMINALS OUT!”

    I disagree. By mainstream social media standards, Youtube comments aren’t as bad as its peers. Youtube comments were probably one of the few places where you could rather easily find pro-Palestine comments before October 7. Meanwhile, it’s still an uphill battle for Facebook and Reddit. If nothing else, Youtube is more international, which means less Anglo nonsense.

      yeah youtube comments are way more tame than facebook and even reddit on non-lib topics

      there’s still a certain brand of “american news” video that just gets all the murican right wing mob going tho
