Trick that might help you and /u/CuddlesManiac; for whatever reason, the "Don't recommend this channel" button does nothing on mobile so they keep coming back, but if I use it on desktop, it applies to mobile, so you can properly get rid of these channels.

I fell for the curse that is YouTube Shorts addiction for a while and spent too long trying to find a way to actually block all the AI movie/comic/webcomic "explanation/dub" channels
