How does content violate law: In July of 2019 the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that "by preventing critics from accessing his feed, the president is barring them from participating in what the judges deemed a public forum." Since this channel is the official White House channel, and is used "to conduct official business and to interact with the public", it cannot have it's comment section turned off. This is a US government content provider . By blocking comments, they/YouTube are violating first amendment rights.

Stop using YouTube all of the white house vids are on other platforms where you can vote and say what you think. You have been deceived into thinking that YouTube is the only place that counts.

That’s a great fallacy, where on any other video sharing platform can I find motor breakdowns?, gardening tips?, new for 2021 CNC machines coming to market?

If you political then don’t use YouTube, but if your seeking knowledge about problems others have encounterEd with about anything, all other platforms are seriously lacking.

I can’t even find science channels on other platforms.

You poor sweet summer child. You’ve grown up with and became completely dependent on the internet. Pulling you back out of the Matrix is going to be a little harder than initially thought.
