I have ADHD and cycle through phases of hyper fixation pretty quickly. The algorithm you’re describing might be built for people like me (sorry!).

I find that my algorithm tends to recommend videos based almost exclusively on content from about 3 of my most recent fixations. I can usually change it up pretty quickly though. I think the trick is having a fairly robust set of playlists that I revert to whenever the algorithm fails me. This might provide some more insight to help train the algorithm, though it probably depends on a bunch of other factors.

Whenever showing me content similar to my most recent views doesn’t work, the algorithm usually just defaults to showing me cat videos. Which I’m pretty pleased with, cat videos are easily the best thing on that site.

I also think that they may be targeting germany because if I remember correctly, a significant chunk of american weapons are sent through US military bases in germany before arriving in the Middle East. Germany is weaker than the US but halting weapons transfers through there could still have a disproportionate ability to reduce israel’s ability to commit genocide.

They think they’re the smartest people in the room for recognizing an obvious political stunt when they’re actually dumb as fuck for thinking it’ll work.

If they can see it, everyone else can too, including the undecided conservatives they’re trying to persuade. The people who vote for presidential candidates based solely on how racist they are to migrants are still going to vote trump and they’ll love however trump chooses to respond. Biden is just throwing away immigrant votes and setting himself up to be dunked on because he’s a white reactionary who wants other white reactionaries to love him.

Not to mention how obviously inhumane it is. It’s not that leftists are too stupid to understand what biden is trying to do, they just oppose it because they have principles and a basic understanding of reality.

You realize how fucking stupid you sound arguing that a state has to hit some kind of deranged genocide quota before we can start treating it as a genocide right?

The absolute brain worms these people have are incredible. In another comment thread they’re crying and moaning about concentration camp comparisons because the number of dead Palestinians isn’t high enough yet. Apparently “learning from the holocaust” means that you have to wait until you hit the 6 million mark before you start doing something about it.

How the fuck can you be an adult and still believe in fantasies like “neutral journalism?” Of course you’re a fucking zionist kraut too, coming in here to lecture people about “antisemitically” opposing a genocide. You’re a fucking joke, people were mocking germans like you before you even showed up here.

Can’t wait to hear how genocide joe bravely called zykkklon bibi a big mean poopy head over this.

 

CW: discussions of racism, ableism, transphobia, zionist bullshit and general corporate malfeasance perpetuated by the Hope & Help Center of Florida.

I got recommended this video and I thought I’d share it here. They included a linktree in the video’s description in case anyone wants to spam the organization’s funders.

I was also wondering if anyone here has had any similar experiences with non-profit organizations. How do you agitate and organize in an environment like this?

The war has forged a nationalist sentiment never seen before in Ukraine, expressed in an infinite hatred towards the Russians.

I’m pretty certain we’ve seen exactly this sentiment before but this guy seems allergic to history.

It’s almost as though a bunch of military installations in the middle of a warzone are innately at risk lol.

I’d heard those lyrics before but I had no idea they were from a kid’s movie. That just adds a whole new layer of visible-disgust
