Taking off my paranoid "youtube hates my side" hat for a moment, the only mechanism by which I can imagine a neutral algorithm would end up displaying this sort of behaviour would be if it learned that users consuming conservative media are more likely to be pulled into a rabbit hole, or that conservative videos are more likely to pull users into a rabbit hole (or, of course, a combination of the two).<p>Having watched a good amount of videos from both political sides, this doesn't seem the least bit surprising.
