        That's absolutely horrifying. What I wonder is whether this is directly reflective of existing youtube content, or if there's some kind of other programmed influence leading to these suggestions. I'm not sure which is worse (although it's likely both, I'm guessing).

        Suggestions? Are you really trying to say Youtube are offering racist suggestions or simply showing the most popular search terms that others have used, that match yours. I see you deliberately went searching for them to create a controversy. #getagrip

        All of it. As we live in a market economy, please feel free to write an alternative search algorithm that doesn't contain this malicious racist code that you alleged Google and Youtube use to make finding other racist content easier. #getagrip

        No, you used the term "The point is that @Google is essentially saying" which means there has to be thought behind it. I think what you are now trying to say is that it is an unintended consequence of the technology being used in a society that contains racists.

        Well, perhaps your suggested searches are related to your previous searches? This is mine.pic.twitter.com/juPHPaZhJU

        I was under the impression that these are previous search terms, ranked on frequency as per Google, not a list of content.

        Wouldn't be suprised if there's a little bunch of alt right kids sitting searching for this stuff with a macro to push these up to the top of the search results to promote their content.
