Anytime there is a woman just existing in an instagram reel, you know the comments are gonna try everything to criticize her. There is an insane double standard on that app.
Right? You can't even find a single female comedian without men 1) humbling her and the everlasting "Not funny, where's the joke" OR 2) talking a gddmn comedy skit seriously and sensitively. Which proves men can't take a joke when it's directed at them 🤷
Men will absolutely go and rage on posts where women share their stories about SA. Or any post that informs about stuff like this. But when there is a post that talks about SA that men went through, they rage there too? Being on insta really made me loose my faith in so so so many men its sad
I've said the same thing in a different video, he mentioned Cody in almost everyone of his older videos. But just so everyone here is up to date, he did address the Cody Ko stuff a lot, he also explained it was that he idolized him as a still growing youtuber. Coop does not support Cody since he's found out about the allegations.
I remember watching a video of this girl who, mind you, is a junior in high school, and she was dressed in cute clothes that were colorful, and so many of the comments were bashing her outfit and saying that she’s easily trying to get bullied at school, like mind your damn business about someone’s clothes
the other day I wanted to do these really cute heart space buns for school. for Valentine’s Day. I got bullied so hard I didn’t even have it up for two hours. the world’s “normal” is becoming so odd to me.
lmao I remember doing that on the ads from one of those companies trying to peddling a box of like *16* colourful pimple patches for like $10 and they eventually got so mad and started fighting me in the comments about it.
thank you for showing the context of the first video. it can easily be taken out of context, but I'm glad that you actually looked into it further without just going "WHAT IS SHE DOING??!?!!?" because that's the knee jerk reaction most people have seen seeing a video like that. Vernest was a fashion designer and Erica just happened to be one of his models. Vernest himself wanted this to be his legacy.
Honestly i saw this video on instagram and with how everything is setup i was confused but it was obvious she was meant to be there and doing what shes doing so i was shocked at the comments acting like she was bad for that idk. Wasn’t that cursed to me.
because its owned by facebook/meta! They DO NOT REGULATE ANYTHING, people have looked into how they treat the staff and the darker side that fb and insta allows on their platform
Has anyone noticed how unhinged Instagram comments (reels especially) are? They’re so ludicrously homophobic, misogynistic, transphobic, all the phobics you can imagine. And most times it has nothing to do with the content??😭
there was literally a 16 year old Indian guy who committed suicide because of the comments telling him to khs over wearing make-up recently. insta really is just one of the WORST
I have a hypothesis about why Instagram comments are so terrible: So like I’ll get recommended a gay couple and the comments are all just horrific homophobia right. I think the algorithm prioritizes showing you content you comment on more than content you “like”. So since people comment usually only when commenting hate, gay couples are shown to homophobes, trans people are shown to transphobes, etc. transphobes always comment ( even though the comment is hate) on trans content, so the algorithm on instagram shows them that thinking thats what they want to see. Tik tok strongly prioritizes "likes", so you see content you like.
your hypothesis is 100% correct, if you’re interested in the research look up the (free access) paper “Angry by design: toxic communication and technical architectures” by Luke Munn. facebook and youtube make lots of money by encouraging hate speech via their algorithm design, and it’s basically an open secret?? absolutely horrifying
You'd have to look into it for exact info but it came out several years ago that Facebook prioritizes showing users content that makes them angry because that gets the most engagement. The goal of any social media is to keep you on the app as long as possible.
remember when instagram admitted to showing hateful comments and content to people so they will be more bothered and spend more time on the app and then nothing of consequence happened to them? good times :)

FR!! When Cooper said "I can't say most of these cus they have the N slur-" I immediately flashed-back to checking a couple normal reels and seeing the N slur EVERYWHERE
I’m a furry and have a pretty decent following on tic tok and post regularly and I barely ever get hate comments and the few I have gotten were tame. But I reposted some of my videos recently to insta reels and omg the difference was dumbfounding I instantly got so much hate and just horrible awful stuff that should never be said to anyone. It was definitely shocking
THANK YOU for talking about instagram comments! They are literally so toxic and harmful to people who are literally just minding their own business and being friendly. Like I've been talking about this for weeks since redownloading insta, SINCE WHEN has instagram become a place for people to straight up cyberbully people. Are we seriously to that point where that's acceptable? In 2023???
The amount of homophobic, transphobic, racist, ableist comments that’s on there is what would make me feel despair for humanities future until I reassure myself that most of them are either 16 or 47 year old white men who are hopefully going to either mature or disperse soon
lowkey if seeing someone say a slur on the internet hurts your feelings u need to take a step back from being online, i mean that in the nicest way possible
@@spooky_kitty901 It'll be worse than people "just saying slurs" though, I have seen some abhorrent shit in comments. Especially towards disabled people
@@spooky_kitty901 if I read hate speech then of course I'm going to be uncomfortable, that is my right and I don't need to keep my feeling down and act like everything is ok. If we pretend everything will stay that way forever and ignore those comments then we give them power and they think they can disrespect us forever but we need to fight back to let them know where their places are. The internet maybe our anonymity heaven but those people who comment are real people and they have that hate deep inside them and it just doesn't stop with comments under some reel. Let's not forget teenagers or even children read those comments and think that's what they're supposed to say. Someday they'll grow up and have to interact with the people they throw slurs at or they're already bullying their fellow gay/black/trans peers. I want the world to be a saver place for my nephews and nieces and the other kids from marginalized people.
@@spooky_kitty901Seeing that shit constantly wears on a person. It’s not like one slur is going to ruin my day but if I keep seeing it constantly it will ruin my entire mood.
You can say that to basically any video Cooper has made before this month lol. Dude was infatuated with Cody. He has since stopped supporting him, in case you haven't seen his recent stuff.
The insane amount of red pill, misogynistic, incel inspired comments on literally every single Instagram post has honestly made me fear leaving my house. I thought about starting to date again but if insta comments were any indicator, the majority of men have become completely unhinged. It’s terrifying. Im not even going to take a chance.
IG and social media rhetoric are indeed not representative of the majority. In fact, many of the normal healthy men aren't on social media enough to create much of a presence. They are busy engaging in life responsibilities and in their IRL relationships.
I don’t blame you, it has legitimately made me feel uncomfortable around men knowing how many of them feed into that crap. I know, I know, “not all men” but when you see thousands, and I literally mean thousands if not millions, of men acting this way, it creates a fear.
I am so relieved to see that have the same problem as me. I also thought about finding somebody but if most men think like this (superficial, see women as pieces of meat, against feminism) it makes me want to stay celibate for the rest of my life alone with a lot of cats. I am not joking when I say this. If a lot of men have these horrible thoughts, then I don't have a lot in common with most of men
@@squishy3248get therapy please if you can't realize the internet tough guy incels don't leave their house and are too cowardly to act like this irl. Being paranoid does nothing for you other than degrade your mental health
Everytime I see a cute, happy video, (normally with a woman and her partner) I smile to myself and open the comments. Then my smile instantly drops when the comments are immediately filled with "She does all this for you to overcompensate for her cheating" "she's not even hot" "bro's dating a 2/10" "poor man doesn't even know she's busting it open on OF" "Hope she gets what she deserves and goes to hell"
One thing I learned, people on the internet HATE seeing other people happy when they aren’t. Misery loves company, especially when they aren’t held liable for their words
Exactly. I saw a reel where a mom was gifting her son a puppy for his birthday or something and the puppy was wearing a rainbow t-shirt and was in a box. It was overall a very cute video and besides some of the top ones, the rest of the comments were horrendous. And God forbid if a woman (or a man) is talking about feminism or any social topic really, the comments from incels and manchilds would flood the comment section. There was another reel where a 20 something Indian girl that lives in the US was showing off her pink outfit for the Barbie movie and the comments were disgusting. She even made a separate reel to show the things people commented on her reel.
as a black person it feels like we're being forced to accept that non-black people will constantly say the n word and not give a fuck. it honestly bothers me but it feels like something i just have to accept to keep my own peace of mind 😕 edit: i started a war n the white ppl are victimizing themselves in my replies💀
I don't mean to tell you how to feel or anything like that but I don't think you should be forced to be ok with white people saying the n word 😭 You're rightfully upset about that imo, those people are crazy..
no literally cause if u even try to say anything ur j wasting ur time cause they rlly dgaf n will continue to say it no matter what 😭 n it’s so annoying when someone asks why u won’t call someone out, like bro i’m not their fucking mother, why should i have to lecture them when they know better
3:05 Even without the context i just assumed it was a furneral themed walk thingy. Its not like it looks like shes out of place randomly runway walking towards a casket.
I found that with instagram reels I always get animals that need help, so they ask you to copy the share link for exposure…but because I do that basically all the videos are animals in desperate need of help. So now I just watch reels (and copy links) and feel sad 😅
Instagram reels is crazy, i literally got called slurs in the comments of a video for literally commenting that people should be quiet and respectful when people exchange vows, its absolute degeneracy on there and i have no idea how people can be anti tiktok when its evil cousin is lurking in the shadows
Instagram reels get WILD. There was one time I left a comment and it got a horrendous amount of people calling me fat, telling me to go to gym, making fun of me for my bio in the homophobic way, calling me sexist for hyping up a woman. It was CRAZY the amount of people who took the time out of their day to comment on what I said which just got me more likes and dms from people wanting to marry me so
From 3:13 on its basically how instagram algorithm seems to operate. I once liked a german meme and next time I refreshed my whole page was german. LITERALLY ALL OF IT. It also happened before with a videogame I've never played, a laguage I couldnt even understand, random photos of random buildings and people in suits of medieval armor with medieval weapons. To be fair, I was not mad about the last one.
The amount of straight up hatred I see just from comments on Instagram alone is terrifying. I’ve stopped going on it much because of the sheer toxicity found in every corner. I thought I was the only one seeing such unwanted opinions being voiced to the most innocent videos.
@@sunnyandthechlobased on content of the video and the generally agreeable tone of the comment, I think they might’ve meant “straight up” hatred :) not hetero-phobia lol
As a 30-something who lives in a proverbial bubble, I needed this. I just recently learned that comment on TikTok that's like "post this on reels" is an insult.
nah cause i’ve had these thoughts to myself. instagram reel comments genuinely ruins my mood sometimes. could be such a funny, cute, innocent video and the comments are so out of pocket or just plain wrong. another reason why i don’t use it as often. unless i truly have nothing to do at the time-
4:50 as an indian I can say that most of the comments you listed out were Indians, people here really don't care about other's emotions. you are doing this world a favour by bringing light to racism from other races
@@bertha322 As an Indian I agree. And then non indians are also toxic. Lots of raciam against indians too. Not defending anyone here. All I'm saying is that internet is f#cked up. It's like a cycle of hate
When that guy started talking into his mic, instant fear. I'm terrified. Every time he started, I started crying. When Cooper started talking into his mic, instant laughs. I'm giggling. Every time he started, I started smiling. The difference: Cooper's being a silly funny little guuuuyyyyy and the scary man isn't
That guys actually nice. He streams on twitch. I'm guessing he was reading a line from a game he was playing or something. It's cringe without context though. But he's nice and silly on his streams.
@@dumbstudios9713 Yeah, I think he said he does voice acting too. I've seen him have little mental health chats with chat before, not like claiming to be licensed or anything weird, but like a general discussion of how he and everyone are feeling.
I’m glad people are starting to talk about this, Instagram has gotten insane lately, idk how there isn’t more moderation happening in the comments with how deplorable they are getting
I heard that Instagram isn't very adamant about getting rid of argumentative, controversial, and outright inappropriate comments because they get more engagement and keep people on the app longer. Instagram commenters will find a way to be mad and argumentative about literally any video. I've never had tiktok, so I didn't realize until recently how much worse Instagram comments are. Instagram can be really draining and depressing, but it's also pretty addictive 😔
Yeah I don’t make comments on there bc the one time I made one it was awful. It was a body builder kid who in the previous reel had talked abt struggling w an ED, he wasn’t sure if he was physically healthy anymore, and had body dysmorphia. He looked barely 13, and posted that and other body checks. I told him to keep his head up, that continuing to post body builder content isn’t good for him, and recommended seeing professionals for his health. The amount of gym bros that were pressed was INSANE. Comments shaming ME, saying I’m crazy or blind, one called me a pedo for being on the kids page when I was literally a minor too (and they weren’t). Many just kept talking abt how the kid is ripped, looked amazing, and encouraged ED behavior. They were recommending supplements for performance enhancement. Like this CHILD made a call for help, and grown men sat there and encouraged ED behavior in a 13 yr old.
For real, one time in a feminist video I said that something about women being able to choose to have kids or not (which is normal hello?) and a man or boy or idk said he was gonna r@p3 me. And that’s the new normality on Instagram…
Im so happy someones talking about this, bc instagram is not moderating shit. my friend went on instagram reels just for 2 minutes and there where people posting literal p0rn and just overall disgusting things on there. its pretty weird, and i have seen even gore on there, with tags that are kidfriendly.
I actually know about the guy from the last reel! He does alot of commission work as a voice actor in small animation projects, both NSFW and regular. As far as im aware, that reel is probably from or is used to promote his only fans. While a little cringe, it is meant for a specific audience.
This is the mental health call out I needed I be like: damn why d I feel do depressed and aggravated, oh Ive been scrolling through instagram for two hours
As a professional Instagram commenter, you can post anything on reels and you will see the most insane things known to man. I comment crazy things, sure, but nothing that's homophobic, racist, or misogynic. You can be spontaneously funny without any of those things. Though, for the fifth time this year, I am banned from commenting for a month.
They'll ban you from commenting for saying the dumbest things too. I had that happen because I made a "your mom" joke meanwhile people are getting away with commenting things far worse than something that's obviously not that serious
I love how they ban people for the simple harmless stuff but when there is actual hate speech in the comments they don’t care. Prob bc the hate gets the videos attention and keeps users in the app longer arguing.
film cooper, i love you so much, you have raised me better than my own father. i hope you know how much of an impact you’ve have made on my life, stay strong king🫶🫶
when i broke up with my ex in january - march, my insta was absolutely nothing but depressed posts about losing your partner, things being your fault, the past etc, it all related to me and i never posted or said anything about my ex on there, just liked/reposted maybe two posts. fucking awful, kept me in the state of mind.
as an artist on ig who posts art content on reels,, i literally have my comment notifications turned off because of reels alone. ive been posting for years but it wasnt until doing reels that comments began to disturb me
8:19 WHAT IS HAPPENING ?? WHY ARE WE DOING THIS ?? Like I see this on ig and i’m unfazed but taking a second to think about it, WHAT ARE WE DOING ?? Why is this normal and considered silly ?? imagine people back then learning that we’re sending this

But I reposted some of my videos recently to insta reels and omg the difference was dumbfounding I instantly got so much hate and just horrible awful stuff that should never be said to anyone. It was definitely shocking
THANK YOU for talking about instagram comments! They are literally so toxic and harmful to people who are literally just minding their own business and being friendly. Like I've been talking about this for weeks since redownloading insta, SINCE WHEN has instagram become a place for people to straight up cyberbully people. Are we seriously to that point where that's acceptable? In 2023???
coopers smile while watching the workout journey at 4:26 warms my heart, he really does seem like the sweetest guy
AH UR SO RIGHT
The amount of homophobic, transphobic, racist, ableist comments that’s on there is what would make me feel despair for humanities future until I reassure myself that most of them are either 16 or 47 year old white men who are hopefully going to either mature or disperse soon
lowkey if seeing someone say a slur on the internet hurts your feelings u need to take a step back from being online, i mean that in the nicest way possible
@@spooky_kitty901 It'll be worse than people "just saying slurs" though, I have seen some abhorrent shit in comments. Especially towards disabled people
@@spooky_kitty901 if I read hate speech then of course I'm going to be uncomfortable, that is my right and I don't need to keep my feeling down and act like everything is ok.
If we pretend everything will stay that way forever and ignore those comments then we give them power and they think they can disrespect us forever but we need to fight back to let them know where their places are.
The internet maybe our anonymity heaven but those people who comment are real people and they have that hate deep inside them and it just doesn't stop with comments under some reel.
Let's not forget teenagers or even children read those comments and think that's what they're supposed to say.
Someday they'll grow up and have to interact with the people they throw slurs at or they're already bullying their fellow gay/black/trans peers.
I want the world to be a saver place for my nephews and nieces and the other kids from marginalized people.
@@spooky_kitty901Seeing that shit constantly wears on a person. It’s not like one slur is going to ruin my day but if I keep seeing it constantly it will ruin my entire mood.
I’ve actually gotten the most vile abelism from a 14 yr old white boy once
Well this Cody Ko thing didn't age well....
I WAS GONNA COMMENT THIS LMAO*
You can say that to basically any video Cooper has made before this month lol. Dude was infatuated with Cody.
He has since stopped supporting him, in case you haven't seen his recent stuff.
0:02 Dude, i just woke up , I dont even know what day it is. And i certainly dont know what i am doing.
The insane amount of red pill, misogynistic, incel inspired comments on literally every single Instagram post has honestly made me fear leaving my house. I thought about starting to date again but if insta comments were any indicator, the majority of men have become completely unhinged. It’s terrifying. Im not even going to take a chance.
IG and social media rhetoric are indeed not representative of the majority.
In fact, many of the normal healthy men aren't on social media enough to create much of a presence. They are busy engaging in life responsibilities and in their IRL relationships.
I don’t blame you, it has legitimately made me feel uncomfortable around men knowing how many of them feed into that crap. I know, I know, “not all men” but when you see thousands, and I literally mean thousands if not millions, of men acting this way, it creates a fear.
I am so relieved to see that have the same problem as me. I also thought about finding somebody but if most men think like this (superficial, see women as pieces of meat, against feminism) it makes me want to stay celibate for the rest of my life alone with a lot of cats. I am not joking when I say this. If a lot of men have these horrible thoughts, then I don't have a lot in common with most of men
@@squishy3248get therapy please if you can't realize the internet tough guy incels don't leave their house and are too cowardly to act like this irl. Being paranoid does nothing for you other than degrade your mental health
@@mississipi1103they don't if you think that way again therapy
Everytime I see a cute, happy video, (normally with a woman and her partner) I smile to myself and open the comments.
Then my smile instantly drops when the comments are immediately filled with "She does all this for you to overcompensate for her cheating" "she's not even hot" "bro's dating a 2/10" "poor man doesn't even know she's busting it open on OF" "Hope she gets what she deserves and goes to hell"
One thing I learned, people on the internet HATE seeing other people happy when they aren’t. Misery loves company, especially when they aren’t held liable for their words
Fr most of these commenters would be incel idiots who have never talked to a woman in their life
theyre always just projecting over the fact no women want them and someone else is happy in a relationship
i've seen grown men and teenage boys say awful creepy things about CHILDREN
Thank you Cooper for sacrificing your normal Instagram reel feed for this video. Your efforts will not go unappreciated.
cody ko joke didn't age well
Exactly. I saw a reel where a mom was gifting her son a puppy for his birthday or something and the puppy was wearing a rainbow t-shirt and was in a box. It was overall a very cute video and besides some of the top ones, the rest of the comments were horrendous. And God forbid if a woman (or a man) is talking about feminism or any social topic really, the comments from incels and manchilds would flood the comment section. There was another reel where a 20 something Indian girl that lives in the US was showing off her pink outfit for the Barbie movie and the comments were disgusting. She even made a separate reel to show the things people commented on her reel.
as a black person it feels like we're being forced to accept that non-black people will constantly say the n word and not give a fuck. it honestly bothers me but it feels like something i just have to accept to keep my own peace of mind 😕
edit: i started a war n the white ppl are victimizing themselves in my replies💀
Same unfortunately :/
I don't mean to tell you how to feel or anything like that but I don't think you should be forced to be ok with white people saying the n word 😭 You're rightfully upset about that imo, those people are crazy..
That’s sad. As a white person, I hate that word and it’s unfair that you are constantly exposed to people saying it online.
no literally cause if u even try to say anything ur j wasting ur time cause they rlly dgaf n will continue to say it no matter what 😭 n it’s so annoying when someone asks why u won’t call someone out, like bro i’m not their fucking mother, why should i have to lecture them when they know better
I'm sorry white people are still saying slurs like that. I can't imagine. I wish we could grow up in a more respectful and caring world.
3:05 Even without the context i just assumed it was a furneral themed walk thingy. Its not like it looks like shes out of place randomly runway walking towards a casket.
I found that with instagram reels I always get animals that need help, so they ask you to copy the share link for exposure…but because I do that basically all the videos are animals in desperate need of help. So now I just watch reels (and copy links) and feel sad 😅
ME TOO same with posts about the Gaza crisis. I pray for them but seeing them all the time is mentally draining fr
Instagram comments are the definition of cyber war. Some are alright, while most are terrible. Those two go against each other.
Instagram reels is crazy, i literally got called slurs in the comments of a video for literally commenting that people should be quiet and respectful when people exchange vows, its absolute degeneracy on there and i have no idea how people can be anti tiktok when its evil cousin is lurking in the shadows
“evil cousin” is absolutely hilarious 😭😭
5:20 don’t you dare disrespect fall out boy like that 😨
I feel like Instagram has been holding out on me...I just get reels of dogs running on the beach and living their best lives.
11:34 COOPERS IMMEDIATE REACTION TO THE VOICE TOOK ME OUT OH MY GOD
Instagram reels get WILD. There was one time I left a comment and it got a horrendous amount of people calling me fat, telling me to go to gym, making fun of me for my bio in the homophobic way, calling me sexist for hyping up a woman. It was CRAZY the amount of people who took the time out of their day to comment on what I said which just got me more likes and dms from people wanting to marry me so
“I felt my soul leave my body AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY” is something I will definitely be saying more now
From 3:13 on its basically how instagram algorithm seems to operate. I once liked a german meme and next time I refreshed my whole page was german. LITERALLY ALL OF IT. It also happened before with a videogame I've never played, a laguage I couldnt even understand, random photos of random buildings and people in suits of medieval armor with medieval weapons.
To be fair, I was not mad about the last one.
The amount of straight up hatred I see just from comments on Instagram alone is terrifying. I’ve stopped going on it much because of the sheer toxicity found in every corner. I thought I was the only one seeing such unwanted opinions being voiced to the most innocent videos.
Do you mean hating straight people or ‘straight up’ hatred?
@@sunnyandthechlobased on content of the video and the generally agreeable tone of the comment, I think they might’ve meant “straight up” hatred :) not hetero-phobia lol
@@sunnyandthechlo just hatred in general.
12:00" when you feel my voice whisper in the quitest parts of the night" i run. i run away. far away. as far as i can.
watching this after the cody ko stuff feels so weird 💀
saw a comment that said “you should worry about your dead baby instead of being a weird hater” when someone was hating on beyoncé 💀💀💀
11:47 💀💀💀💀💀 coop 😭
AND THEN YOU MAKE US WATCH IT AGAIN
13:45 cooper is officially broken, rip cooper
As a 30-something who lives in a proverbial bubble, I needed this. I just recently learned that comment on TikTok that's like "post this on reels" is an insult.
nah cause i’ve had these thoughts to myself. instagram reel comments genuinely ruins my mood sometimes. could be such a funny, cute, innocent video and the comments are so out of pocket or just plain wrong. another reason why i don’t use it as often. unless i truly have nothing to do at the time-
The Codi thing did not age well...
4:50 as an indian I can say that most of the comments you listed out were Indians, people here really don't care about other's emotions. you are doing this world a favour by bringing light to racism from other races
You are right actually indians on social media are very toxic saying this as an indian
@@bertha322
As an Indian I agree. And then non indians are also toxic. Lots of raciam against indians too. Not defending anyone here. All I'm saying is that internet is f#cked up. It's like a cycle of hate
When that guy started talking into his mic, instant fear. I'm terrified. Every time he started, I started crying.
When Cooper started talking into his mic, instant laughs. I'm giggling. Every time he started, I started smiling.
The difference: Cooper's being a silly funny little guuuuyyyyy and the scary man isn't
That guys actually nice. He streams on twitch. I'm guessing he was reading a line from a game he was playing or something. It's cringe without context though. But he's nice and silly on his streams.
Oh! Phew! He's quite good at acting, then!
(like literally, I'm not joking when I say I was terrified and was about to cry)
@@dumbstudios9713 Yeah, I think he said he does voice acting too. I've seen him have little mental health chats with chat before, not like claiming to be licensed or anything weird, but like a general discussion of how he and everyone are feeling.
13:39 someone is going to clip that 💀
that someone was me. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkx217PwnICXo-uQZiwHESFSZiLLgJUfO9H?si=l8dFbbau-LjzTx-L
i love coopers videos cause it feels like im just talking to my friend
8:54 this aged well.
that’s what i was thinking 😭
I’m glad people are starting to talk about this, Instagram has gotten insane lately, idk how there isn’t more moderation happening in the comments with how deplorable they are getting
Even on cute dogs/cats videos, people can be brutal! Like what?! How is this sweet video causing so much hate??
I heard that Instagram isn't very adamant about getting rid of argumentative, controversial, and outright inappropriate comments because they get more engagement and keep people on the app longer. Instagram commenters will find a way to be mad and argumentative about literally any video. I've never had tiktok, so I didn't realize until recently how much worse Instagram comments are. Instagram can be really draining and depressing, but it's also pretty addictive 😔
Yeah I don’t make comments on there bc the one time I made one it was awful. It was a body builder kid who in the previous reel had talked abt struggling w an ED, he wasn’t sure if he was physically healthy anymore, and had body dysmorphia. He looked barely 13, and posted that and other body checks. I told him to keep his head up, that continuing to post body builder content isn’t good for him, and recommended seeing professionals for his health. The amount of gym bros that were pressed was INSANE. Comments shaming ME, saying I’m crazy or blind, one called me a pedo for being on the kids page when I was literally a minor too (and they weren’t). Many just kept talking abt how the kid is ripped, looked amazing, and encouraged ED behavior. They were recommending supplements for performance enhancement. Like this CHILD made a call for help, and grown men sat there and encouraged ED behavior in a 13 yr old.
@@melissadropdead4619they just hate on everything ig
For real, one time in a feminist video I said that something about women being able to choose to have kids or not (which is normal hello?) and a man or boy or idk said he was gonna r@p3 me. And that’s the new normality on Instagram…
Always a good day when Film Cooper posts
Agreed!!!
YESSIR 🔥🔥🔥
Yes .
I AGREE
I'm at school right now, don't worry it hasn't started yet
1:18 there’s no freakin way she just red carpet slayed at a funeral I’m laughing too hard at that
That last video gave me goosebumps, but not in a good way, in a walking home alone at night and feeling like I’m being watched kinda way.
I love when people forget about their digital footprints.
Im so happy someones talking about this, bc instagram is not moderating shit. my friend went on instagram reels just for 2 minutes and there where people posting literal p0rn and just overall disgusting things on there. its pretty weird, and i have seen even gore on there, with tags that are kidfriendly.
10:37 the dude in the video literally had a girlfriend named andrea
3:39 how that one creepy uncle talks to his neices friends at the family bbq 😭😭😭
deleting instagram has been the greatest choice ive ever made... also, HI COOPER!!!
Dude, I am definitely thinking about deleting my Instagram. It's just not an enjoyable place to be anymore...
@@bekkajeanmusicit’s worth it, that or just try to make boundaries to not touch the xplore page. That for me is where all the bad stuff happens
@@bekkajeanmusichonestly, go for it. I deleted majority of social media (only keeping UA-cam and Pinterest) and my mental health been WAY better. ❤

Can you delete this comment? 😊😊😊 I wanted to be first thanks

@@Imjustkendall 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I love how angry you get I love the rage in your soul, when something irks it 😂
These reels really make me wonder whether or not these people have friends and family. IF I DID THIS, MY FRIENDS WOULD BULLY ME TO ETERNITY
Cooper talking into the mic and then laughing about it afterwards was hotter than anything that man could do in his life
I actually know about the guy from the last reel! He does alot of commission work as a voice actor in small animation projects, both NSFW and regular.
As far as im aware, that reel is probably from or is used to promote his only fans. While a little cringe, it is meant for a specific audience.
A little late but do you happen to know his name?
I live the extra touches you added to your wall!! The pop of green is a nice touch!
This is the mental health call out I needed I be like: damn why d I feel do depressed and aggravated, oh Ive been scrolling through instagram for two hours
I will never get over how aesthetically pleasing your room is 🤧
I didn't even know Instagram Reels were a thing until recently. It seems the deeper I dig into internet content the further I get from sanity
9:58
why he got boneless hair 💀
kodico comment aged well
i love how cooper's room looks like me trying to get the environment up in the sims
As a professional Instagram commenter, you can post anything on reels and you will see the most insane things known to man. I comment crazy things, sure, but nothing that's homophobic, racist, or misogynic. You can be spontaneously funny without any of those things. Though, for the fifth time this year, I am banned from commenting for a month.
They'll ban you from commenting for saying the dumbest things too. I had that happen because I made a "your mom" joke meanwhile people are getting away with commenting things far worse than something that's obviously not that serious
I love how they ban people for the simple harmless stuff but when there is actual hate speech in the comments they don’t care. Prob bc the hate gets the videos attention and keeps users in the app longer arguing.
@@rolypoly1404dude, insta banned me for being aggressive at someone who said that he was going to r@p3 me but they didn’t ban his gross comment 💀

when i broke up with my ex in january - march, my insta was absolutely nothing but depressed posts about losing your partner, things being your fault, the past etc, it all related to me and i never posted or said anything about my ex on there, just liked/reposted maybe two posts. fucking awful, kept me in the state of mind.
11:36
HIS FACE OH MY GOD IM CRYING
as an artist on ig who posts art content on reels,, i literally have my comment notifications turned off because of reels alone. ive been posting for years but it wasnt until doing reels that comments began to disturb me
11:40 was just how I feel in my bones about weirdos who do the deep whisper shit.
when he watched that girls video the warmth in his eyes made me melt ong
8:19 WHAT IS HAPPENING ?? WHY ARE WE DOING THIS ?? Like I see this on ig and i’m unfazed but taking a second to think about it, WHAT ARE WE DOING ?? Why is this normal and considered silly ?? imagine people back then learning that we’re sending this

definitely on my christmas list!
