What? Who is not paying attention?

No matter what the subject there are mediums that will provide dross and those that will provide quality. Just like looking at documentaries on TV or reading books - its being able to sort the wheat from the chaff that is important.

You need to learn how not to be trolled. Respected journalists, scholars and scientists are a relatively safe bet. Reading US / Russian / Chinese / EU / etc news is *not* a bad idea per se. News should only inform. If you can get respected journalists, scholars and scientists to interpret, analyse for you, that's even better. But youtube is not the right platform for that. Except the first part: getting the *official* raw news.
Number of journalists (respected and otherwise) and some of the others are up on YouTube & competitors (Bitchute and whatever else). Otherwise professionals talk about their work and what effect it has on commerce product. Some hella cool short films too.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

As a fan of space and science, I like watching Anton Petrov. I am a wonderful person.

Youtube have alot of videos, some are good and some can be misguided or giving you wrong details. Like what CCP and others been doing over the years and that is really bad, those is what i am trying to stay away from. It like a party of left and right wings, i stuck in the middle. I just want peace and able to relax without being force to do something. Its a crazy world out there, we are killing each others over silly ideas what people cant agreed or work together.

I do find alot of interesting videos on youtube, i like watching Curse of the Oak Island. I have first to sixth seasons and alot of interesting sources out there to learn from. Those ads really can kill while watching those videos. I cant disable it, cause i am using device, like built in dvd player, etc. On PC you probably can, unless you may they money to have those ads removed.

I use Adblock plus (firefox addon) and don't see a single ad on youtube. PC, of course. Bad luck with your device.
