Funny that the most popular president inhistory is disliked sooooo much. I'm amazed the American people have stood by and allowed this to happen with no visible resistance by huge amounts of the population.

Didn't trump also get massive amounts of dislikes?

Yes thousands, compared to tens of thousands of likes.

This is starting to sound like he CCP's "This is humiliating to the people of China!" crap.

It is humiliating to address the "cultural differences" that are forced labour camps. Honestly I wonder if modern wokies would still criticize Neville Chamberlain for appeasement policies when that's precisely what they're currently supporting.

They push ten Biden videos to my front page every day. I down vote all ten. They could just stop showing them to me and I would stop down voting them.

This is like all the CBC videos YouTube pushes on Canadians. All see several thousand downvotes to a couple hundred up. All are unapologetically liberal. They spent so much effort faking actual votes to reflect them in internet votes.

Tip: marking them as "not interested" does more to get them to stop showing up then disliking them. The fact that you click on them to dislike them makes youtube show even more of them to you.

Maybe Youtube is pushing it BECAUSE your engaging with it. Youtube just wants your eyes on the platform, even if it's out of spite. That's why I mostly use frontends like Invidious instances and Skytube.

I dislike this

Trump didn't need this. Does this mean that Biden is weaker than Trump?
-3 u/Rorybabory 31 Mar 2021 05:17
I don't think this helps Biden at all, so saying he needs it is a bit strange.
1 u/dreclevr0d 31 Mar 2021 07:47
Well, tell that to jewtube.

Why are you being downvoted? You have a point. Hiding the dislikes raises even more suspicion, especially sinces he's under the microscope of right wing media similar to how Trump was hounded by left wing media.

Uhm, reading the article I'm absolutely unconvinced that this has anything to do with Biden. Youtube is experimenting with a new feature on few random people. It has nothing to do with Biden in particular. But some people on Twitter said "that's cuz Biden has disliks" and so they made a retarded clickbait title out of it. This is CNN quality journalism. It's sad that people here jump on anything apparently when it confirms their bias.
