I just randomly selected this Channel 4 (3.8 million subscribers) video with 370K views on YouTube: Israeli soldier speaks out on war in Gaza. The next video it played was In Gaza now, it's worse than ethnic cleansing from Al Jazeera. Then it gave me another Al Jazeera video, Norman Finkelstein on Gaza: The US could have stopped Israel on day one. From where are you driving your accusation that YouTube is delivering you any more pro-Israel content than TikTok?
Just one of the first 20 hits when I searched for "Palestine." I have to admit I'm struggling to find any pro-Israel content among those search results. Searching for "Israel" gives a more mixed bag, but still plenty of pro-Palestinian content mixed in
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
