I used Python to scrape YouTube and compare how much more often videos are disliked when they have negative mentions of "Russia" compared to other countries.
For some reason, there are FAR MORE dislikes and negative comments (using sentiment analysis) in videos that criticize Russia compared to other countries of similar population size.
Weird and interesting coincidence

Vladimir Zelensky cannot give Ukraine's armed forces the order to retreat from Russia's Kursk region because the West will consider this a failure, analyst Mark Episkopos said in an article in The American Conservative.
"Zelensky's government will not be able to simply pack its bags and leave the Kursk region: [...] one of Kiev's main tasks is to manipulate opinion in the West, and a retreat [...] cannot be presented [to the West] otherwise than as a failure"
According to the expert, this is the reason why Kiev continues to throw new units into the Kursk region, despite constant losses and Russia's successful advance into Donbass.
Since the start of fighting in the Kursk direction, the opponent has lost more than 11,400 soldiers and 89 tanks and many armored fighting vehicles.

There was No Russian election interference to begin with. There are Zero facts that support these claims!
@usssanjacinto1 Says:
So if thebDems lose and blame the Russians, its conspiracy fact.
But if the Dems win and anyone questions it, they're election deniers and conspiracy theorists.
Ukrainians should have thought before following the English playbook. Before, they had willingly granted genuinely Russian territories.
'Some fled, others died': Ukrainian fighter reveals extent of his Army's losses
Ukrainian troops are suffering significant casualties, including due to the flight of soldiers from the front, a fighter from the 59th Motorized Infantry Brigade of the Ukrainian Army admitted in a conversation with Economist magazine.
"In three days, one hundred [men] were neutralized. Some fled, others died," the soldier told the publication.

@rhondamyers4936 Says:
Wait. Putin wants Harris to win so I’ll guess I’ll vote Trump.
@barbaragdisis4606 Says:
Trump’s own lawyers disclosed he received over $100m in income from Russian sources over the past decade, only they spun these transactions as “exceptions”. Several of the Trump organisation’s (albeit largely unused) Russian trademarks were also renewed on election day last year. While campaigning for the presidential elections, his organisation was also pursuing a real estate deal in Moscow.
As a candidate, Trump made conflicting statements on China as well, accusing it of “theft” against the US, then praising its trade dealings when he visited the country in early November, citing the US as the problem. Trump left China with a number of big business deals, but little progress on that trade deficit he was attacking during his presidential campaign.
His own business interests in China have little to do with putting into practice what he has been preaching. In 2016, Trump reported at least nine businesses registered in China; he also has around 100 trade marks registered in China, allowing his organisation to sell Trump-branded products there. A number of Trump-branded items sold in the US are also made in China.
Donald Trump was cultivated as a Russian asset over 40 years and proved so willing to parrot anti-western propaganda that there were celebrations in Moscow, a former KGB spy has told the Guardian.
Yuri Shvets, posted to Washington by the Soviet Union in the 1980s, compares the former US president to “the Cambridge five”, the British spy ring that passed secrets to Moscow during the second world war and early cold war.

What a pity that Putin is not running for US President, I would vote for him! Russians are very lucky with their President, not like us.

@rhondamyers4936 Says:
If Putin backs Kamala which he announced on a broadcast. Why would he try to sabotage her . Come on really . I don’t believe that: this could be election interference again. I’m not stupid. Not buying it.

Russia already owns trump and now the Republican party and now the supreme court! Nobody paying attention to what's going on...
Trump wins election and has to answer to his boss in Russia.

Nice work RT! Keep up the good work. It's great that Putin chooses who's in the White House. The US has meddled in loads of country's affairs. They put Zelensky in power, That's how we ended up in this mess, It's great that you can infiltrate and influence the US election. They don't seem to like it, He he 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@ThePopeII Says:
Censorship of foreign “propaganda” is something you would expect from North Korea not USA. Americans should have free access to information. And it’s laughable to say Russia somehow influences our elections with disinformation when our own media spins and distorts facts while basically campaigning for Harris.

Next we will see CNN bring 60+ former "Intelligence officers" to vouch for this fake news and share their "expertise" on air.
Clowns News Network.

The old ones are the best.
@ThePopeII Says:
Why shouldn’t Americans have access to all information and points of view? EVERY country has an interest in who wins our elections not just Russia. And if those countries want to influence our elections, Americans SHOULD hear those opinions and decide for themselves.
@umoabasute9424 Says:
#MediaBias: We the American 🇺🇸 People know that the Mainstream Media has an agenda which is to get @KamalaHarris cross the finish line. Which why they’re desperate trying to hard to make Kamala seem so popular when in reality she’s not that popular. Look at her record.
@umoabasute9424 Says:
#2024Elections: If @TheDemocrats and Mainstream Media are so confident that @KamalaHarris is definitely going to win this election 🗳️ then why continue to shield 🛡️ her from answering basic questions such as how will she handle key issues facing our country? Like the Border.
@umoabasute9424 Says:
Advice Of The Day: Don’t make the Mainstream Media and others make you feel guilty or have a guilt trip this November if you don’t want to vote 🗳️ for the Candidate that they’re forcing you to vote 🗳️ for just because that candidate happens to be @KamalaHarris a Woman of Color.

When you got nothing to offer people, defer to default setting. "Putin interfering in our elections". Get some new material, blame China or Iran or whoever next in line to be the "bad guy". Variety, what keeps heard interested.
