I'm still not sure you got it.

There is no issue in criticizing these CEOs. They are horrible indeed. But they are like this and they have been promoted to this spot because we're in a system (capitalism) which values this behaviour. Not because they're Indian...

It's funny how people will find anything to blame except for the problem itself when the problem is capitalism.

And it's not like we've seen anything odd happen when people systematically blame a particular race/religion/nationality in history... /S

It's based on your viewing history.

You can run a little experiment to verify this if you want. Take some subject you usually watch and take some channel your have interest in (and you will keep watching similar videos). Set that channel as "don't recommend channel". After a while (never calculated how long), you'll get recommendations of that channel again.

I also don't get Mr Beast recommendation as I don't watch similar content, but there are channels I need to keep blocking since I like the subject but not those channels in particular.

I was mostly just saying that the "don't recommend channel" approach is not a solution for everyone.

I've seen some of those videos since my son likes him. The issue is that a lot of his content is obviously scripted. If the content itself is scripted (faked), why should I believe that money is actually given out in the end and, again, not just part of the script?

It's not permanent, even if you click on "don't recommend channel". After a while, YouTube will ignore your choice and show it to you again if it feels like it.

Fine, but for those that call it X, there is Xitter as a better option.

How about we agree to call X/Twitter as Xitter. It avoids the confusion.

Source?

It's funny how this image built of China to discredit anything they do leads a whole bunch of people online to just completely make stuff up on the spot against any positive news. When it comes to the point that a whole bunch of people are just making stuff up on the spot, we know how efficient the propaganda has been.

Every time I see a comment about North Korea, I recommend watching "The Haircut" by BoyBoy. You can find it on YouTube. It's just 20 minutes long and it's quite entertaining to watch.

There's a nice part on the video about the "Prison Camps" and "Death Squads" which are applicable to "voluntary donations" as well. It also applies to the "poor people of NK" as well.

This. Trailers are ads for other movies. Some DVDs had unskippable trailers.
