See the discussion thread below. They don't show you the real dislike count. They show you cached from before the update, and dislikes from users of the extension/plugin. Dislike count is now part of the private video statistics.
Here is the response from the public API for the video statistics of the SOTU stream. Notice dislikes are not included, because I do not have the whitehouse's youtube API key (and neither does the developer of whatever dislike plugin you are using).
Again, the way the plugins work is they use cached dislike numbers from before the update, and can track new dislikes from users of the plugin. These plugins have no way, without getting a key from the content owner or hacking one, to get the real dislike count from YouTube any longer.
It will show you dislikes of videos that were cached before the numbers were pulled. For new videos, it cannot get the actual dislike count unless it has the API key from the content owner.
Where do you still see dislikes? I thought YouTube removed them from the public stats. They're not even included in the public API responses anymore.
There's an extension that returns them on various desktop browsers:

Use Firefox. In the add-ons there is an app to still see the dislikes. Install it. Problem solved.
It doesn't show you the actual dislike count. That's why it's not moving for you. It shows dislikes from people using the plugin.
As of December, dislikes are part of the private video statistics. You have to be the content owner to see them.
No, that's definitely not the case. Because on other videos the dislike counts are so high that it supersedes the number of people using the plug-in.

Also, I'll pass on using any Mozilla software, thanks. Too woke.
