Currently in the US elections are featured in my YouTube feed, and not factual content but rage inducing.
How can I filter that?

The worst part of it is that we have people like my dad who refuse to get a Youtube account, because then you hand over information to Google.
But he won’t stop using youtube…
They already have your info! You are just refusing to actually aknowledge it and give yourself control of how a part with huge impact on you get’s used!
This may be immoral, but I support kids taking control of their parents YT history, removing alt right content from their watch history and even secretly watching other interesting content to change the feed.
There have been so many horror stories of kids seeing their parents slip away to the alt right by youtube and social media algorithms and push more and more extreme content.
This needs a counter force, I would never stop someone from watching a specific video, but if I needed to I would do what I could to make it not show up in the feed.
I’ve heard stories about people putting on parental locks or making it harder for their parents to access Fox News and other far right media. Once that cancer has been cut off from the source, the parents started becoming like their old selves.
