    The alt-text panel hints at this, but the problem with making up a fake group everyone can hate is that racists and bigots will stretch the definition to include whatever they want.

    We’ve seen it with “antisemitism” being redefined to include any criticism of Israel, and before that “pedophilia” being redefined to include drag queens and parents supporting their trans children. For that reason, hatred like this should not be encouraged, even if it’s imaginary.

    What type of Chromecast do you use? I recently bought a Chromecast Ultra for a new TV after being happy with a secondhand one for years (3rd gen, I think). The difference in UI was such a disappointing step down. I don’t want a home screen with apps and ads, I just want something I can stream to from my phone! And I can’t say for certain, but it also feels like I get more ads on YouTube compared to using the older Chromecast.
