It’s really frustrating to to know you can get 235K eyeballs on some half-assed low-brow poorly edited video. I’m sure the whole heart of his supposed argument is just “Miles is black and women exist”. It’s really tiring how much mileage they can get from such a low bar of thought. I know the algorithm feeds off outrage, outrage in response to outrage, and of course drama orbiting outrage, it’s just kinda sad to me. It’s a very game-able system and just makes discussions around comics, anime, and games worse.
Also this dude is called Synthetic man, with a Agent K head photo-shopped onto a V body. I’m sure the irony of his profile picture is utterly lost on him. I hate dweeb so goddamn much man. They ruin liking things way more than the people whom they claim are ruining the things they like.
I love dork-shit, but these fucking losers are just the worse. I need to get a permit carry a locker around and be authorized to push them into it, give them nuggies, and wedgies.
The thing I love (despise) about Youtube the most is how you can watch one video talking about a random game, and suddenly your Recommended is flooded with ridiculous clickbait outrage shit like this.
Relatedly I had watched the Thought Slime video on cops recently, and Youtube tried feeding me 500 variations on “ENTITLED LIBERAL KAREN GETS ARRESTED AND OWNED BY VALIANT POLICE MAN???” type shit. Why is it like this?
Fuckin exactly! The clickbait stuff just bubbles up from the ooze of losers. I hate that this stuff spreads so far so quickly so easily. You’d think that clickbait would have been dealt with in the late 2000s along side pop-ups and click hi-jacking, but no. Outrage sells so the eldritch horror that is the algorithm recommends it indefinitely. It’s so stupid it literally fosters the environment of harassment and potential violence YouTube claims to be against
I actively had to “Do not recommend this channel” on I think six different recommendations when watching a review for new Hellboy game. I’m a big ol’ comic fan and I’m very saddened that there is more “Anti-Woke™©” comic content out there than content that just talks about comics. There are some decent folks out there putting out critical thoughts (most of it really damn good) about comics/comic games but is just so stupid this sort of stuff always bubbles up to the top.

I guess because harassment and violence translates to more drama and outrage for those profitable clicks! Grim as fuck.
Comic tropes is good
Excellent example! Good videos, interesting insights on comic stories and their history.
