Do you seriously think a lot of people would want to do that? I don't. I think conservatives will yell out loud that YouTube is promoting "gay propaganda/agenda" and vice versa from liberals.

People intentionally bubble themselves, Twitter with it's much weaker suggestion algorithm has netted the same result, it really takes a special type of person to fight that.

What is needed isn't the opposite view, it is the more moderate similar view. Liberals are evil isn't counter by liberal conspiracies. It is countered by conservatives who can see the point and a middle ground. Likewise liberal bubbles are popped by liberals who can understand conservative positions.
