YouTube Struggles To Fight Mobs Weaponizing Their 'Dislike' Button (theverge.com)
"YouTube is no stranger to viewers weaponizing the dislike button, as seen by the company's recent Rewind video, but the product development team is working on a way to tackle the issue," writes the Verge.
Suren Enfiajyan shares their report on a new video by Tom Leung, YouTube's director of project management. "Dislike mobs" are the YouTube equivalent to review bombings on Steam -- a group of people who are upset with a certain creator or game decide to execute an organized attack and downvote or negatively review a game or video into oblivion. It's an issue on YouTube as well, and one that creators have spoken out against many times in the past.... Now, the company is planning to experiment with new ways to make it more difficult for organized attacks to be executed. Leung states that these are just "lightly being discussed" right now, and if none of the options are the correct approach, they may hold off until a better idea comes along.
Ironically, Leung's video itself drew 2,654 "dislike" votes -- nearly double its 1,377 upvotes.

The far left love to divide people into classes of victims, except for white men, who make up oppressing patriarchy.
That’s why the ad was so terrible. I didn’t see it aimed at individuals, but at all white men.
Unfortunately, these lefty nut jobs occupy the entire humanities departments, which spills into the education departments. The effect of this is having primary school children, who used to at least get some Sunday school, now being told they are gender fluid snowflakes that to feel out their sexuality.
I would call it child abuse. Gillette are just another corporate jumping on the latest man bashing lefty trend to try to appeal to millineals brain washed by Marxist’s teachers and professors.
