YouTube isn't as bad as Amazon is, in my experience. On YouTube, I'll get recommendations mostly from self-defense "gurus" with their thin blue line flags in the background. But Amazon is a lot more aggressive, and will give me recommendations a lot more like OP's, with links to conservative TV shows, books written by FOX hosts, shitty screen print 'murrican tee shirts, etc.
