MODERATORS
Maybe you don't want to watch it. But the algorithm is meant to maximize viewing time. And someone (several someone's) with a similar profile and tastes to yours went on a viewing rampage in the past. So they are shooting their shot that you'd behave like your peers.
This kind of videos are also engagement bait. So they are the algorithm darlings. Optimizing for engagement will always result in the most extremist and unhinged content being promoted. The mildly curious about spirituality to religious nutjob pipeline is very real.
