I watch a lot of progressive political content on youtube, and am still bombarded by far right ads, like "Epoch Time" etc.

Im not sure what "Earn Tech" is but no way am I clicking on this.

But this is a new one, this is clearly an AI generated image of Trudeau - trying to make him look angry? I wonder how bad these are going to get. Anyone else seen any?

They're all over Youtube. Especially the shorts. I've given up on trying to report them, at this point, it doesn't seem to make a difference. Started noticing them a month or two ago.

They promote alcohol and gambling to minors, so I don't think they give a damn about society-changing propaganda ads on their platform.

Which is why I'll never stop blocking ads.

It's crazy, I happened along this youtube channel, and it REEKS of AI generated bullshit.

The thumbnails are all fake.

The comments are all fake.

The commentary of the video is extremely weird.

The videos of the machines are real, but the titles are all weird,

and all the videos are the same machines just re-hashed order of them every few days.

The comments thou.. definitely bots.....
