I keep getting this guy's vids in my feed. Anyone else familiar with him? Anyone else find him as lame and annoying as I do?? lol. Seriously...I can't get through more than about 15 seconds of any of his vids I've tried to watch. Apparently, every schlocky 70s and 80s top 40 hit is one of the greatest songs ever written. The audacity of this guy anointing himself the "Professor" of rock music! Sheesh!
I turned off the "feed" (using uBlock Origin). And I'm almost never logged in to a Google account so the only suggestions I get are when I load the youtube home page and I often wonder at the absurdity. "Is that what sells these days?" I ask myself out loud, showing the kind of grumpy old fart I am.
That said, I have the impression
annoying sells. For example, Rick Beato sells. He is such bore, selling a dreary old ideology of "popular music was better in my day" as though that were some kind of original idea.
Idk. If you think of the internet as a mechanism to match sellers of ideology up with those that want to buy reinforcement and val;idation of their preferred ideology, you're going to end up with a lot of silly stuff being sold.
