 | YouTube is the number one video-sharing platform in the world with more than 95% of the internet population using it. It provides videos ranging from silly pranks, heartwarming stories, news about the latest global issues, people's personal interests, information about cutting edge science, genuine debates between people who disagree but want to understand each other, lies to serve a political agenda, the ramblings of mentally ill people and everything in between.
YouTube has an algorithm that focuses on overall audience satisfaction, over providing people with a neutral, objective or balanced perspective on the world. It suggests videos based on how users with similar viewing patterns to your own reacted. It personalizes its recommendations based on channels to which you’ve already subscribed. This poses a risk of limiting people's access to information, that they didn't know they would have wanted to know.
I created this topic to exchange informative and educational videos with other people, who might have been algorithmically limited to other content than I am myself. I do suggest to limit this topic to informative and educational content, because there are already enough other topics for fun and questionable stuff.
Although politics and climate change can be categorized as informative and educational, there are already enough other topics debating politics and climate change. Science in general isn't political, neither is (or should) philosophy. Religion is associated with politics, but honest debates on this topic are not political, in my opinion. If you think these subjects are all terribly boring, I don't agree, but then this topic is not for you. That's OK. |
The Belgian and Dutch media frequently write about the large-scale drug mafia surrounding the Y. clan. This concerns a substantial Turkish-Assyrian crime family.
In March 2026, 91 defendants in this case were sentenced to prison terms of up to 13 years for smuggling tons of cocaine through the Port of Antwerp, corruption, and money laundering. The key figures within this family bear names such as Bayram Y. and Marsin Y., but a 'Dogan Y.' is not a prime suspect in this case.

There are probably 30 like him in your country, but in the US you have global cartel/faction leaders, who people like Ridouan Taghi take orders from. In the US you have cartels that even the police fears to take on. They act in the open and corrupt the police.
In my country, they act in the shadows, until the police has acquired enough evidence
to shut them down. You are fighting wars because of your drugs problem, in the fight against drugs cartels, which are propped up by hundreds of billions of dollars from American drugs addicts.
If your healthcare system wouldn't suck so much and Americans still had hope
for the future, they would use a lot less drugs.

it reaches the news once or twice for a few minutes, and then you forget, because that's normal in the US.
We beat your country on almost everything that is important for people's quality of life.
Also, you've been spelling Anus Licker wrong.
We don't get a cent of foreign aid from you or anyone.
Now, say something negative about that.
in administrative cooperative spending that shows up in the foreign‑aid
accounting system. The US contributed to an international program or NGO based in the Netherlands, that is providing aid in other countries, not in the Netherlands.

Capitalism!
Did you listen to the part that explained how banning it resulted in the birth of
the black market drugs trade as we know it today?
Communism!
Except if you include alcohol, but you don't consider that, right?
I never hear you talking about banning alcohol. Phart yes, not you.
Also, the Soviet Union never had anything close to communism.
They had authoritarian state-capitalism, which is about the opposite
of what Marx called capitalism.
1. Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
By quoting Matthew 15:8, you’re the one positioning yourself as a believer.
And if that’s the case, then Matthew 7:1–5 should matter to you, regardless
of my atheism.

The problem is actually that the production of weed is illegal in my country.
I'm very much annoyed that the US legalized weed production before us.
Of course in Texas they haven't learned from it, and they are reversing it.
Drug-related police offenses: U.S. ≈ 6× per capita
Drug arrests/offenses: U.S. ≈ 3×, with major caveats
Opioid mortality: In 2019, the U.S. had an estimated 223 opioid-related deaths per million people, compared with an OECD average of 30 per million; ≈3.7× per capita
Of course not, but we solve problems a lot better than your country.

It has been all over the news many times, including when the police has uncovered lots of facts about it, through very praiseworthy inspector work.
That was the first time ever that a lawyer has ever been killed in my country.
In the US, there has been at least several dozen documented cases of lawyers getting murdered from 2016–2026, there is no precise number.
