// An alternative approach would be:
// document.getElementById("comments").remove();
//
// However that does not work as YouTube manipulates the DOM after
// the page is loaded and therefore the comments-element doesn't exist
// at the time of execution.

style.innerHTML = "#comments { display: none; }";
document.body.appendChild(style);
