In other words, the clowns at YouTube are canceling people's rights to having differences of opinions. <SMH> Woooow.
YouTube was smart to get people hooked and then turn around and put the viewer and creators in chains.

We are the products.

I thought they already did this and reversed it? Was that just a trial? I remember when I was not able to see like or dislike counts for a hot minute and then they were back again.
The content creator could disable the like/dislike feature.

    Yup. You know the power brokers hit them up and told them to x it out. It’s like comment sections…Notice how you never see those anymore?

    I thought it was that they just didn't show the like to dislike ratio, only the YouTuber is able to see them. So you can still like and dislike a video, we just won't know whether a video is downvoted into oblivion, unless the creator decides to let us know, which we all know they won't.

    I think that's a dumb move on their part though. Because that's how we make our feelings known about a video, and it also shows the world. Yeah some people target videos and do mass dislikes on them, but I feel like that's not as many as you'd think.

    But yeah, I have a feeling this will backfire, because what's the point in even having it? It'll show the creator that what they made was bad, but it won't let others know if a video is good or bad. I like to know before I watch something sometimes, how many disliked it has versus likes. Google just continue to ruin YouTube as we know it.

    Youtube is run by nothing but asshats and clowns, I swear. This isn't going to help anyone. You know how many scams are on that platform that kids and adults both fall for? How they going to know it isn't a scam now? It is like they are favoring this kind of crap. Do they not think? My brother said they are probably doing it to protect brands, politicians, and BS media.

    I looked into it more before they did away with everything and if you look on anything related to Biden or Harris it is super disliked. Same with a lot of CNN type media outlets getting bombed with dislikes. You can see some of it on brands and movies, games, etc. as well. They must want to cover this up to keep people from asking questions.

    Seems like we're free to do everything except think for ourselves.

    They don't want people capable of critical thinking, especially not black people or other minorities. The reason why is because they rely on us and minority groups to push through their agendas.

    That's definitely the truth. They hate to hear our opinions even more.
    I hate the White media.
