I'm becoming convinced that these 1 vs 20 videos or whatever are to make fascism seem more popular than it is

MODERATORS
Not necessarily, it's more like content creator syndrome cynicism for views plus a bit of horseshoe theory (sometimes, its tinted like "oh... look at how the radicalized people are acting (regardless of being progressive or conservative)"
I've seen there's also 1 Candice Owens vs. 20 Feminists on the channel, and recall 1 Jordan Peterson vs 20 Atheists (he doesn't know if he's atheist, agnostic, or theist at all lol)
Doesn't make it less scum of the pot content in Youtube.
There's definitely a conservative bent to it. The radical right is represented far more than the radical left, and usually the radical left is met with the radical right while the radical right is just as likely to be arguing against moderates. Flat earthers vs globeheads is a good example, you have these reactionary, anti-science radical conspiracists vs people who just have a more informed version of the common position. Mehdi Hasan is a lib, but they put him against fascists. Most of their political conflicts are like this, being center left vs radical right.
How many times did a communist ever appear on the show? [My count is ~3] Can you name a single time they weren't pitted mainly against career Cold Warriors or libertarian ghouls, but just against normal liberals?

Ok, now that you remind me of it... egh, wth is going on there.
if they were really about it they would do "1 twink vs 20 bears"
it's kind of cool that they managed to get the 2nd through 21st incarnations of adolf hitler into the same room tho. tracking through that many timelines seems like a hassle
Doing that ritual Tibetan monks do to select the new Lama from prospective children, but the toys are like a swastika pinwheel and an happy merchant doll.
Join us over the next 16 episodes as 1 soviet woman debates 309 nazis 
Hey, we're Jubilee. Our mission is to be the Disney of empathy. We have a great episode for you. 1 person with a clean butt vs 20 people who don't wipe their ass. Let's just have a rational debate about whether wiping your ass is okay or not. We could all learn something about not wiping our asses. Teach the controversy.
How tf does that youtube channel even exist?? The last time I ever saw something from it was an AMA by an incel lmao wtf
I checked on them before they started promo-ing the Mehdi Hasan episode, just to see what they've been up to, and saw "1 Palestinian vs 20 [anti-Israel] protestors". Can you guess who the 1 Palestinian was? It's a guy who works for a Zionist think tank. The one that Ethan Klein sometimes has on to do charity fraud and lie about Israel.
Edit: The main problem with your example is that it would be a Polish resistance fighter on Poland's eastern front, and they spend half the time arguing with the Nazis about the best way to oppose the communist menace.
I would buy a pay per view for a Norm Finklestein vs 20 zionist college kids
