For Leftists: What happens when a content creator has a questionable guest on?

What makes you enjoy "generic" Youtubers?
I don’t want to offend anyone by the term “generic”, but by that term I mean the typical Youtubers who generate the same repetitive content over and over and over and over and over again and it’s usually content that is made with little effort and often with filler, such as unnecessary jokes.
