When not logged in, the front page is full of right to extreme right content, always a click or two away from conspiracy theories and/or Thierry Baudet, the leader of the FvD, which is basically a neo nazi party.

What I saw is that objective and tolerant (compared to some rest of YouTube in my opinion) channels from my subscriptions were erased by YouTube, aka Deplatformed[0]. Other channels mostly about politics with pessimistic negative worldview connotations and selective biased view(IMHO) continue to grow to this day (context: all russian speaking channels). For example channel of Artemy Lebedev ( tema.ru/travel/ ), in recent interview he shared that since then he continued to upload, and YouTube erased so far eight of his newly created channels, but he does not care. I bet that latest one[1] will be also soon erased. Another channel is GoingUndergroundTV (interviews with politicians), it is now hosted on Rumble.
It's really not that hard to connect the dots why all this happens, for example person like Garry Kasparov could not ever be deplatformed from YouTube, not matter how biased and one sided world view he projects to audience of his former country, becouse he is not a strange man to certain establishment (He attends private 2023 Bilderberg Conference with figures like Henry A. Kissinger)

NPR is not considered centrist, but left-leaning.
When I check logged out I get CNN and Fox side by side, along with a lot of non-political basketball and Mr. Beast type stuff. Content probably varies on your IP address.
But calling everything disliked "extremist" is counterproductive and is itself an Overton window shift.
For example, does anyone really believe that no abortions, no exceptions, even in the case of rape of a minor is not extreme? We have 15 states right now in the US where that is the case and a large cadre of gop politicians that believe that is how it should be. And not only are those states enforcing this ban, some are going so far as to try to go after people who leave the state to get in many cases, life saving abortions.
I also think that unlimited abortion for any reason up until the moment of birth is an extreme position. Guess how many states in the US that is legal? It's zero.
Oddly enough, when I log out and use a new browser I get nothing but CBC, CNN, Fox, and things like Mr. Beast.
None of which I watch.
I would suggest watching some things outside your bubble. Watch it from the mindset of a poor person who isn't sure where their next meal will come from.
As an FYI, some of the contents of men's rights extend to family court and have an obviously devastating impact on children. Some of those children are boys, whom will inevitably become men. There's also a population of men but not cis men.
Similarly, there is a lot of content that claims to be "feminist" content but really it's just women saying all men are trash.
Both are extremely harmful for gender equality and both tend to get recommended pretty happily by YouTube.
Admittedly, that isn't quite at the bar I prefer. As such, I removed my pointed criticism at the end, leaving the more important and informative piece intact.
But anyone who has consumed a broad range of media today should understand that the term men's rights is generally highly loaded. Just like reverse racism and white genocide.
