I gave up on Blk YT long ago. Only about half the people I follow are Blk now. Had to unfollow so many creators who really have no creativity and aren't about anything.

How is this any different from social media content in general. At some point we gotta stop pathologizing blackness as some unique problem when the same shyt is happening elsewhere.

Nothing is changing on the social media front. The algorithm is gonna keep rewarding dumb shyt and people are going to keep getting dumber.

Black peoples negative media representation goes back over 1000 years starting with Arabs. Now in modern times you have actual black people themselves who buy into black stereotypes.

There's less of a balance when it comes to Black people. Black dysfunction is more visible and to your point, it gets more visibility thanks to the algorithms.
