Did a whole bunch of right wing money flood into Youtube trying to influence culture? Or am I jumping at shadows?

Suddenly my Youtube ads are all “Real men protect women and wear this tactical hoodie!” and Youtube thinks I want to watch Matt Walsh’s transphobic documentary. Emotionally, it feels like they’re throwing salt in my wounds while I’m just trying to watch my astrophysics Youtubers and escape.

      Literally nothing that runs natively.

      There are two solutions that I can think of:

      1. Watch YouTube videos on your desktop with appropriate ad blockers installed, then airplay the tab to your Apple TV.
      2. get a cheap android tv player and install SmartTubeNext
