Okay so Youtube started recommending these videos in a genre called “HFY” or “Humanity Fuck Yeah” which, as far as I can tell, involves AI narrators reading AI-generated stories over slideshows of AI-generated images and the stories are all military sci-fi where humans are the bestest warriors the galaxy has ever seen and kill stupid evil caricature aliens 1000:1. Once in a while there’s a story where an alien race does a massacre to humans which gives the humans an excuse to gloriously commit righteous genocide
Why is this a thing
Who asked for it
Who’s watching it


There’s also an r/HFY subreddit that’s been around for years, so it wouldn’t surprise me if it was just AI bots trawling that and mashing it into whatever these videos are. I’m not going to go check either of those things though lol.
