Hi, programmer here, the youtube algorithm doesn't purposefully do anything. In fact, it's not even something humans wrote. We write algorithms that write algorithms, and the various algorithms that power the recommendations on youtube are several steps down that chain. It's incredibly biased in favour of fascists because they have long ago figured out how to abuse it – not because anybody made it that way on purpose.
