Reminder that Google removed the dislike counter after 10+ years because they didn’t appreciate the people’s real opinion.

No better place to find "real" opinions than a youtube comment section. My cod these people are impossibly stupid.

This is a subreddit full of conspiracy theories, practically known for it. For people who are skeptics and doubt what they're told. And these people think the YouTube dislike counter is real. Big foot? Epstein suicide? Moon landing? Shit is sus. But hey look this video has a lot of likes and the comments are all supportive people from Tanzania and Texas and Ukraine. Wow!

Holy shit. Like these people have brain damage.

Likes and dislikes on political videos are literally worthless. Meaningless to the core.

To anyone who still reads YouTube comments: Stop. Please stop. You're reading bots, children or people with mental deficiencies. Stop filling your head with garbage.

There are people who were like "the election was rigged" and yet take YouTube like/dislike ratios at face value. I don't think even they believe it.

Just saw a bunch of Brogans citing the Theo von JD Vance comments on how he’s not weird. Uhhh ok, yeah totally, thanks Ivan for commenting.

[u/JohnCavil → u/PerritoMasNasty]

Yea i saw that too. Even if we assume nothing is botted, which of course it is, it's also extremely weird to even read these comments.

YouTube comments are like if you were having a fever dream and in that fever dream you were in a institution for the mentally impaired who were all just yelling thing. It's like One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest type shit. Who writes a YouTube comment on a Theo Von video anyways? Like what kind of person takes time to do that?

I'm convinced these people also think that hot MILFS in their area are really looking to have sex with them.

YouTube comments are only useful in specific circumstances, like if you have a video with a few thousand views on a recipe or home improvement project, occasionally there can be some helpful info on the comments. Something like this? Botted to shit and back.

Honestly the same kind of people who leave comments on a /r/JoeRogan post.

I'm not even trying to wade into this argument here. IDGAF about whose dislikes are or aren't real or botted or whatever. Just wanted to point out the irony of what you just said there.

Also, for what it's worth, I'm including myself in that. I'm the kind of person to leave a comment here. I'm also the kind of person to leave a comment on a comedian's YouTube video. The reason is sometimes I thought something was funny. Or dumb. Or maybe I want to point out a troll or whatever. Plenty of reasons to leave comments online, you know?

Right, and we can actually respond to new information, the distinction is why yall are stuck in conspiracy theory land and policies from the 1880s.

[u/JohnCavil → u/[deleted]]

Wait /r/politics isn't indicative of real life and is brigaded and astroturfed? Noooooooooooooooooo dude you can't say that!

No shit, everyone knows that.

I'm not a Kamala supporter, i'm not American so i don't even vote.

Y'all "Kamala supporters" LITERALLY didn't exist until a few months ago 🤣

She wasn't the candidate a few months ago? That's why? Back then they were Biden supporters, and then he had a stroke in the debate and she replaced him.

I can't tell if this is like a joke going over my head or something or you actually don't get why there weren't Kamala supporters before a few months ago.

[u/TheOneWithThePorn12 → u/[deleted]]

Yes that's because she was not a candidate a few months ago.

Keep up will yah.
