tbf, that race baity clickbait is well over a decade old at this point. Soon after cheap viral videos became a thing, there were “social experiments” and “prank” videos that did not give a fuck about respecting other people.
I certainly remember when it really ramped up. I recall a “prankster” a little over 10 years ago who went to jail for going to “the hood” with a mystery package that he implied held a bomb. People online have been terrible for a long while, but this nonsense wasn’t recommended to me for several years. I can only imagine what might have spurred the algorithm to believe that race baiting was worth recommending.
As an aside, trump ruining the internet further wasn’t on my bingo card.
