Oh my, I needed to hear this! Even though I don't want to even hear about him or see his face, I get ads for his books, conferences, etc, all the time.

Like most (all?) social platforms, YT's algorithm skews alt-right. There's advertising revenue in it. Not sure why exactly, but it optimizes for clicks/views, & I can only assume that content that reinforces people's prejudices & confirmation biases is generally enticing
