It heavily depends on the content. While on dumb Videos there are dumb comments and on Minecraft Videos there are childish ones on the high quality of entertainment I watch only perfectly balanced comments are shown.
It's true that they're less "facepalm-inducing" under the smarter videos, but any entertainment video with wide enough appeal is gonna be littered with comments that will make you feel like you're having a stroke while reading them. It usually gets worse if the channel is more family friendly, I assume because the YouTube algorithm serves it to kids a lot more.
The vast majority of YouTube comments are incredibly dumb. I hope the reason is that it's mostly kids.
