What do you all think? Is UA-cam brainrot getting worse? And what can be done about it?
Capitalism is what ruined UA-cam
Rocky rakoon has done much worse than cringe content he also permotes cub stuff in his alt.
I absolutely agree that the brainrot is getting worse. To the point that when people were calling the Nokotan ad (great show, btw) brain rot, the first think to come to mind was "My guys, if you think this is brainrot, you haven't even got past the patch of snow at the very top of this iceberg".
MeNoBuyTheseCrappyUndies! Tell your friends!
Hey Saber, I'm not sure if you realized this, but the thumbnail is really pixilated
As an animator who has spent countless of hours learning the craft of animation, this brain rot stuff makes me not want to post on youtube. Why bother making anything of value? Brain rot is the only thing that matters apparently. Im not bending over backwards and spending hours infront of my workstation only to have comments like "WOW! your still alive?! I thought you were dead!!!" ....gee whiz... thanks.... you know what? going outside and enjoying life seems like a better option these days.
I agree with you
You got this‼️‼️post those gorgeous animations‼️ because you worked hard, and everyone is proud of u :3
Oh hey! It's been a while since I saw your face around. I always enjoyed your animations and I do agree with you.
As a scratch animator, I agree

People complained about TV rotting kids brains. But at the very least tv channels were legally obligated to follow strict rules. And there was always some level of quality control. And there were publicly funded stuff like PBS kids for more educational content.
But with YT there's no such quality control. There's a basic set of rules but they're poorly enforced and nothing like what cable tv channels have to adhere to.
"But with YT there's no such quality control"
Uh.............. yeah there is! It's called watch your darn kids!
"But at the very least tv channels were legally obligated to follow strict rules"
LOL! Is that why I had to wake up at 6AM on Saturday to watch Captain Kangaroo? The station fulfilled the "strict rule", just without having to give up a time slot for more lucrative programming.
Yeah. It's bad. This is what happens when we allow stupid people to do whatever they want.
@@xandercruz900 What he means is that there was some sense of quality control on a professional level, meaning that there was some small degree (and I do mean small) of care taken for the kids out there whose parents couldn't give less of a damn. Leaving your kids unattended with any internet-based entertainment, especially for hours on end, is practically the equivalent of tossing their brains in a blender.
@@PlayStonkers I read this and cant help but think back to the 80s when that era of adults said the same stuff about our cartoons then, and how the stuff they watched as kids was far superior and more sophisticated. my parents thought that stuff like Inspector Gadget, Tiny Toons, and Transformers were the dumbest stuff they've ever seen, while Howdy Doody, Underdog, Rocky and Bullwinkle, and the old 60s Batman were far better shows.
The point is that the cycle just repeats and rhymes. In summary:
"“I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary."
UA-cam definitely needs alot more moderation. Seeing what alot of these channels get away with (stolen content) is just bs
It's concerning because more kids are watching this and become more addicted and less attentive, it's like a digital opioid
Cocomelon is one hell of a drug to the kids.
@DontReadMyBio333 I hope it does.
this video explains why
@@КГБКолДжорджКостанца sometimes I think the creation of the internet and UA-cam might have been a mistake…
Ya then normal media isn't holding them enough and nothing's enough and they need faster and faster moving shit and get shorter and shorter attention spans. My lil bro can't even play survival Minecraft anymore. It's gotta be cheats, instant gratification, and he needs at least 5 add-ons. His game is SO SLOW. but he can't play it any other way.
at least none of them will grow-up to steal my job
UA-cam has become a place where brain rot trash, ai, and content farms are rewarded while actual effort and creativity is punished.
It's sad cause there's actually good content and some amazing instructional content. I learned to fix so much stuff from UA-cam videos
I feel like youtuber doesn't have long before people just check out. I'll give it 5-10 once all of the kids grow up.
The thing is, it's not UA-cam's fault. People make trash, other people eat trash. Then they grow up into trash, and make more trash.
@@TheGuardDuckNo, but really, UA-cam is also at fault here. Sure, I agree that the Parents are to blame for this, it really is, but UA-cam casually recommending and allowing such content to exist here, picking topics not suitable for kids or pure content which adds nothing to the children's development. Hell, UA-cam Kids Exist to avoid this type of thing, and yet, what parents know about it? It's a place specifically for them, not here.
My point is... UA-cam themselves have the tools necessary for control of this brainrot problem. Yet, they don't do anything, they have as much blame as the negligent parents.
@@Dieg-0 Yeah, UA-cam has some share of the fault, but for the most part, the algorithm is giving people what they want. Whether it's their responsibility to filter out trash us debatable.
I lost more braincells in the first five seconds of the video than at any other point of my life(why)
I wish I had braincells to lose, but it still gave me brain damage.
"I can feel my brain cells committing suicide one by one"
Cause I can make your hands clap
Did they just RUIN a song I listened to from Forza Horizon 3?
Naw, I lost my all my brain cells at the first second
It ENRAGES me that UA-cam is rewarding and promoting these talentless hacks for their laziness, while UA-camrs who are putting tons of effort into their content barely get noticed
And because they arent making enough money, they are overvly strict and demonized video for the smallest of reasons
@@bewearstar9462 Even breaking their own rules for them
UA-cam only cares about money. The more views it has, the more money it makes. A brain rot video with millions of views vs a genuine video with a lot of time and effort put into it with only a couple thousand views, who do you think youtube will care for the most? That's just the sad reality
@@bewearstar9462Not to mention the algorithm rewards consistency which makes me 10x harder for good creators to reap the benefits (really depends on what type of content their making tho)
Honestly, the worst part isn’t the brainrot itself, it’s the kids who are being impacted by it because their parents are too lazy and negligent to monitor their kids.
A better parent would have the kids watch something better. This is just mental junk food.
Call me old, but think about "Special Education". Gen Ed= general education, so think about all the children in Special Education. I've met children that are almost non verbal at seven years old, but one of the 10 words they can say is "Subscribe".
In the "old days" Gen Ed were the role models during recess, and Special Education kids grew better social skills...
Exactly. The way he described it at the beginning is concerning

Unironically, I can't wait for the current generation of kids to grow-up, to see what sort of content they will come-up with
I’m a parent and it’s the parents responsibility to monitor and guide kids. UA-cam isn’t gonna bother changing unless it hurts their bottom line to ignore it. I showed my kid the difference between something quality like gravity falls and low effort trash like lanky box . If you help your kid develop good taste in entertainment, they’ll actively begin avoiding brainrot. Kids are smart enough to recognize trash, but they need to be taught what it is and why it’s bad. That’s been my experience anyway.
That’s smart! Show them what you grew up with and the quality stuff not the trash of content farms
Wise words there, pal. Show them the entertainment we had before all this and compare it to the content that is happening now. It just might help them get out of this trap these greedy idiots set them up for.
@@cjhammer0623 that’s a great idea
exactly! a compromise i've found is alternating between regular cartoons and youtubers i've personally vetted. i highly recommend audiobooks too, my kids love wings of fire and for a week straight asked for that instead of tv.
You know how our parents tell us that if we watch too many cartoons, our brains would rot? With all this recent brainrot content, I now understand what they're talking about.
If every cartoon was like the problem solvers then yes. That's how I see it
Comparing this to cartoons makes cartoons seem so amazing
Way worse than TV age.
Parents do have the power to turn off the Internet. Limit the amount of hours they are allowed. Have them try other stuff. But we The adults are killing ourselves to pay for rent and food so we work all Day & Night. In the end I blame Corporate Greed for keeping all mankind as slaves.
Parents are no better when it comes to internet use, the free time they have they spend online.
Oh please. What a bunch of cowardly excuse-making.
I have to wooooork and pay biiiiils, so I cant be expected to paaaaarent! WAH!!!!!!
Your arse dont work "all day and night". You likely have plenty of time to goof off on the internet yourself, watch Netflix or play video games!
Both my brother and his wife work, and they find the time to govern their daughters internet use. They are so strict it feels like it's N. Korea over there.
And these 2 are millennials that used to look at some weird shite back in the early 2000s.
@@xandercruz900
I'm sorry do you yourself have a child? Are you feasibly in a position to have a child? Many people aren't nowadays because nobody can afford shit. If you're working two jobs practically day and night for 14 dollars an hour at a company or two that wants to squeeze every drop of productivity out of you, you're going to want to spend your free time recharging with something easy.
If you have a child while in that same situation, you not only have to deal with stress and exhaustion, but also a fussy 5 year old that wants McDonald's in the back seat because you missed the bus and are almost late for work.
Not every kid is an angel and no one has energy to do anything anymore
Good on your brother for not being stuck at the hands of companies, but not everyone is superman.
Blame ourselves on some degree. Instead of just ranting and talking, we should take to the streets, protest, try to gather the masses. Then we’ll have a chance at shaking things up.
@@aierisfrost8447 Ok. I'll send this to my brother (36) and his wife with their 14 and 6 year old daughters so they can know after their long shifts in retail, they totally have "no time" to govern their daughter's internet use, and the insane levels that I see them engaging in with their access to tablets, PCs and phones is just a figment of my imagination.
Apparently they have magical powers while people like you can squeeze time playing around on UA-cam, but apparently have no time to parent your kids.
"Not every kid is an angel and no one has energy to do anything anymore "
Oh please. go peddle that whiny excuse-making to somehow with a Kleenex. You use those devices as babysitters while you blame "le corporations".
Please."no one" = you. If you gave a shite, you would get it done.
That side of UA-cam is nightmare fuel, and to think kids today are growing with that with NO ADULT SUPERVISION (because that is the issue, adults today in general are not even half responsible parents as those that existed before, and those were not even many in the first place)
But why aren't parents as responsible for their children as they should?
@@BestOneEver247Best I can figure is because they think they can just hand a device to their kid to keep them distracted and let that be that
Another one aside from what that other person said is that the parents themselves are barely adults. They're closer to being children than responsible adults.@BestOneEver247
The problem is, everyone raises their child to be prepared for a world that is long gone by the time they reach adulthood. Maybe Gen Z or Gen Alpha can figure this out, but the millennials are hosed.
@@garg4531 Hmm, question: how much time do parents have to spend on work compared to how much they can spend time with their kids?
1990's: "Too many cartoons will rot your brain!"
2024: "Hold my brain."
Can speak for this 1st hand, i used to be friends with a lass and has 3 small children under 10, she would let them use their tablets on youtube with 0 monitoring for HOURS as she watched TV. I called out that i caught her 7 year old watching digital circus brainrot and Poppy Playtime “kissing animations(?!) advised she should put youtube kids on there.
I got yelled at, “you don’t know what’s best for my kids you’re not a Mother” never saw her again. Gen Alpha are doomed 🙁
damn. hope that mom actually parents her kids, you tried
F for those kiddos
_"You don't know what's best for my kids. You're not a mother."_
Well, neither are you, lady, if you're just sitting there and not keeping an eye on what your kids are watching.
this makes me so sad man
I'm so sorry, I hope she watches this content and actually wakes up.
The fact that they allow this shit but censors a UA-camr just for saying "fuck" once is beyond me
And don’t forget, this has happened before too!
True.
They don't censor UA-camrs for saying "fuck". Stop lying. They might demonitize you but you're allowed to swear as much as you want on UA-cam. Most of these "brainrot" channels aren't monitized so they are just as "censored" as the UA-camrs you describe.
@@Cooe. Not only do the videos get demonetized, but they can also be removed from the search algorithm and removed from recommendations. The video for all intents and purposes stops existing and can only be found by going directly to the channel and scrolling through their videos. On top of that, according to UA-cam's guidelines they can delete your video or even give your channel a strike (and 3 strikes within 90 days means they delete your entire channel) if your content contains "sexually explicit language", "excessive profanity", etc. So no, UA-cam themselves explicitly say they will censor you if you swear too much in your videos.
But one of the many issues with UA-cam is that they're not consistent at all in their enforcement, so it's just complete random chance what's gonna happen or if anything's gonna happen in the first place.
As stupid as the censorship of certain words, true crime and horror is, I think it is infinitely worse that UA-cam demonitision or censors certain opinions and facts.
This is all youtube's fault they dont give a shit nowadays.
I agree, but "nowadays" is being generous. I think UA-cam stopped caring a long time ago.
They need to fixed a lot of shit then just that.
I agree we need something new that can actually compete with UA-cam or a major change in YT policies.
@@michaelstrong5383 Umm they have never cared. Unless we are talking about IP theft or something that is clearly adult rated, they have never shown any interest in content moderation or content curating. That would require having people in the loop and not using an algorithm. And that stopped 10+ years ago.
No it’s not their fault. It’s the parents fault for letting their kids watch that. Brainrot channels will just make whatever people watch most
And all the parent who said Spongebob was mindless brain rot
Spongebob looks like Shakespeare next to this... “content”
"Why do today what you can put of tomorrow?" "What is today but yesterday's tomorrow."
old spongebob actually. Modern spongebob devolved into this brainrot as well
@@Seanman2006WAIT what did they do to SpongeBob? I actually haven’t seen SpongeBob in forever and like what happened?
Kids are honestly better off watching stuff like Bluey, Max and Ruby, or Dora The Explora than these content farms on UA-cam.
At least with those shows, you actually learn something from them. With these brainrot channels, you don't really learn anything from them.
Well it was brain rot. Along with Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab 2021, Ren & Stimpy, Bevis and Butthead, Tom and Jerry, the crap you guys used to watch on Newgrounds....
You just arent a kid now, so now it's all "weird" and "dangerous".

@@greytitan12 your getting blinded by nostalgia mlg was trash
Great Informative Video Bro. Its so weird as Milennials back in the day it was like they gave us an adequate amount of technology But Not too much where the brainrot became severe. Everyone nowadays basically has a mini super computer in their pocket as their phone. The thing I find really sad about the Brainrot content too is the fact that like you said Attention Spans have dwindled so much its even happening with Short form content now. I saw someone get into an argument on a short that it didnt get to the topic fast enough & the part there were referencing was literally 11 seconds into the 57 second short & then they got mad when the creator corrected them. Like Vine was fun and was its own thing back in the day, but I never felt like it affected people from paying attention to longer form content. Though on the positive side I have been seeing an emergence of people starting to fall in love with minimally edited content again for the fact it feels more organic & calming. Over the Hyper Edited Jingly Keys entertainment to Get the dopamine up.
So Heres hoping more of that starts to come back into the fray and that this starts to get regulated.
Honestly, I never thought of Rocky Raccoon as a brainrot channel. Just a regular guy who makes some weird animation memes and that’s it. But now when people point it out, that actually makes sense and I can see it. But the fact many of his animations aren’t very appropriate for the younger audience, like damn…
Dude drew the Squid Game robot doing the Jacko-Pose. The robot is modelled after a child and he claimed he didn't the robot was supposed to be a child. Like, WHAT DO YOU THINK A CHILD LOOKS LIKE, ROCKY?!!
He's also into drawing underage characters in adult situations and his audience is children.
He also has a patreon with very bad stuff on u can see it on the end of some of the shorts
The stuff on his patreon is prob nswf
If I recall he did animate something a visual novel which is a different rabbit hole I would suggest anybody not to look up unless you’re morbidly curious.

Because UA-cam isn’t run by human beings anymore.
Saying UA-cam has a brain-rot problem, is an understatement. That’s like saying Joseph Stalin just had “Anger Issues” .
That's what I'm saying. It's always been brainrot. This is only new to grifters and people who think their brand of brainrot is different. I mean ffs. Skibidi toilet wasn't wild to anyone my age because we grew up with Gary's Mod.

I dont have kids, but if/when i do, I already have a list of quality stuff i want them to watch from toddler to start of teens, Im not sure if that's creepy/weird,. but id rather be weird than let them watch anything the algo feeds them online.
Ive had similar thoughts as well honestly, the shows I grew up with when I was a kid where just better than a majority of todays shows. I rewatched a lot of the older shows and there where good characters, good stories and morels, good but not extra violent action, and obvious care was put into the shows. I’ll definitely get box sets of them and have those to share
I'd like to see someone interview some psychologists on how this can affect children in the long run.
Especially between Gen Ed and Special Education. I don't know if that term is still in use. I can't find a term that 100% of English speaking countries use.

Yes kids are sneaky - guess what, you can still put the device to a place they won't easily get to.

@@Batz-on-paws true but there’s nothing wrong with kids having screen time as long as it’s monitored if kids want to chill out after school or after a busy day watching their favorite show than so be it as long as the parent is monitoring and doesn’t walk away from it than who cares
@@SongRepeatertoddlers and young children being on phones and tablets is detrimental for their development (unless it’s for accessibility needs) I don’t see a problem with watching an occasional movie with your toddler but even that should be pretty limited. I’m an ECE and from what I’ve seen young children who have access to handheld devices for entertainment have a harder time holding their attention, regulating emotions, they often become very overstimulated as a result but at the same time they build up an unhealthy dependency on screen time (even if it’s just a few minutes a day). It honestly is way better in the long run to give them a book to look at, some toys, or some work to do while you need them to be occupied.

I think that as a lot of things, Brainrot will die down. To think of it many people considered Fredd, old Smosh, and Annoying Orange to be Brainrot, but today it is seen by most (including me) as Classic UA-cam. Same thing happened during the 2010’s to 2020 because of all the kids channels at that time (Most Notably Minecraft Brainrot). But of course that died down, and then from 2020 to now we have the Brainrot we know today. I for one think there will be demand for better content from both parents & older teens. And the creators/editors themselves can’t keep this up forever. In conclusion, I do think it will die down and there will be something else for everyone focus on next, but we just have to keep waiting for however long, and keep fighting for what’s right.
I remember that!!! It died down after a while just like this will hopefully we just don’t know when that will happen
The other scary thing is the lack of social interaction they have today. This is going to be disasterious in the future.

My son has been OBSESSED with Lankybox channel no matter what I do. He started naming his toy box “my lankybox merch box!” And I’m like this is too far and no more UA-cam for awhile 🙅🏽♀️
Edit: before I get this comment too much, yes I monitor his UA-cam usage and have even blocked the channel from his UA-cam kids account. The issue with that is even UA-cam says there are other channels that can review and upload this content as well. I can and do block them as they pop up and even have banned him from UA-cam on and off. I can’t control what he watches when he’s at a friend’s houses or visiting relatives. There’s only so much I can control even if I take away his device usage at home. I don’t plan on keeping him isolated from the rest of the world so I do what I can to prevent him from watching that type of content but it’s like fighting a Hydra monster. A new channel pops up after I thought I got rid of the last one.
I understand my responsibilities as a parent when it comes to monitoring my child on the internet. Especially as someone who was taken advantage of as a child through the internet. There’s only so much in my control when UA-cam makes this content so easily accessible.

He doesn’t know what merch is, does he?
If I had a kid they would get a dumbphone when they are 7, but no smartphone until they are 13 (a.k.a their teens.), and even then I would limit what they could watch on youtube (There are controls where you can approve what can be seen.) until they hit 17....at that point they are borderline an adult. They can choose what they want to watch.
I'm speaking from experience as a gen alpha, most of my childhood was spent on UA-cam and I got weird fetishes that I'm still overcoming from Elsagate. It always frustrates me when I see people talk about Elsagate fondly or joke about kids these days because yeah it's funny but these kids are sitting here with depleting attention spans and you're just sitting here, laughing at them??? I feel like people have grown more cruel and I feel kind of phased because I never went through that awkward stage because of this push to move forward! Wear this! Do that! Mainly because of TikTok and that whole mess. Honestly, I wish that people brought more attention to what all of this is doing to children and teens and how it kind of feels like you can't be a kid anymore.
As a Zoomer every time I hear Skibidi Toilet, I feel my brain slowly wanting to crawl out.

It moderates content unless it's harmful to kids. What is the purpose of moderation then?
Yeah I've typed completely harmless comments and UA-cam still hides them. It's annoyingly baffling.
@@gratermccheesy9650 making people believe UA-cam cares and moderates
UA-cam shorts made this worse. I've seen several kids just watching nonsensical cringe videos and scroll through them like there's no end. They just stare at the screens like it's the most precious things in existence. We're turning our kids into doomscrollers.
And worse when they play these in front of you and you slowly lose your mind listening to them .
Max has definitely improved because of Twiddlefinger personally. The others? Not at all.
This problem has gotten so bad, that by now Brainrot has a UA-cam problem.
I wish UA-cam Kids was completely separate from UA-cam, so channels would have to specifically upload content made for kids in a forum made for kids. All the channels should have verification before they can upload and have their videos verified before they go up. And no content farms using characters from adult oriented entertainment. Then on regular UA-cam, we can have comment sections on videos with animated content that otherwise get marked as "for kids", because I sometimes miss being able to reminisce with others about movies or shows from my childhood. And I've heard that UA-cam Kids sometimes suggests videos with clips from the likes of Rick & Morty and Helluva Boss.
You know it got so bad because I went to the trending page and it’s all brain rot
The fact they delete videos calling this stuff out, but let the original video stay unchanged.
They want dead minded slaves just clever enough to run the machines but not clever enough to realize how badly they are getting shafted. That way they will eat the bugs, live in pods, and get excited for New Product
Lasediea2gambe made a challenge were he watched for half an hour brainrot content after and before doing an IQ test... After the half hour his score was with twenty points less from the first time he did the test. This brainrot content is real danger.
Non mi aspettavo un commento che parla della sedia a due gambe su un video di Saber lol-
Attenzione, sedia a due gambe menzionato🪑🇮🇹
sedia a due gambe menzionato !!
Obviously a rigged challenge made to fearmonger and get clicks. There is no way that a half hour of that kind of content lowers your IQ by 20 points.
Oh, wait, IQ doesn't matter, the origins were an extremely racist and nationalist test that chiefly relied on quick facts and knowing trivia.
Deh, per forzah!
I remember when my brain rot was [YTP]
YTPs at least were funny and creative to some degree with their editing and even songs
Same
YTPs got me into editing and audio mixing.
I feel like the stuff we had growing up was stuff of substance. The new era of "content" is all about putting as many videos out as possible. I feel as if it's not a hot take, but spamming out videos will drop the quality of your product.
I’ll be honest. MDP seems like the least terrible one here. Maybe part of it is because of the mod but at least he’s seemingly a nice guy behind the content and his brain rot is surface level with him mostly using the nugget and the monkey characters.
My bro SaberSpark clearly doesn't know and has only looked at the bad content without trying to dig further, Max has actually evolved and I genuinely am a fan of his work. We gotta raise awareness on this brooooo
Yea, he is the only content farm I respect, in fact, I feel bad calling him a content farm anymore.
Yeah, this right here. I don't know why call it a content farm or brainrot when the guy behind it has a fanbase he interacts with often. It baffles me. Feels like he [Saber] did no research.
If I got an award for "Least Terrible Brainrot", I would seriously have to rethink all my choices that led my there and evaluate if I'm worth the oxygen
@@eclipseRz to be fair the worst it gets is that the chicken nugget exists
I saw my little cousin watching brainrot content. I'm afraid what will happen to his brain for when he gets older.
I’m not sure if it’s brain rot or content farm but when my little cousin came to visit he watched a rip off to Nickelodeons Paw Patrol and it was lazy animation and not even the same voices but he was glued to it and he watched something called “Number Blocks” which I understand if it’s educational but I don’t think the Paw Patrol rip off was educational in anyway shape or form
@@SongRepeaterIdk what you’re talking about regarding the paw patrol rip-off. But I do know that Numberblocks is a real Kids TV program hosted on BBC, with full episodes hosted for free on UA-cam. And yes, it’s educational.
@SongRepeater Numberblocks mentioned?1!?1!1?1!
@@32NB not in this video but my little cousin watches it and I’ve never heard of it so I just assumed it was apart of the content farm thing 🤷🏼♀️
@SongRepeater that show is in-between, some people assumed numberblocks was a content farm because it teaches kids the SAME THING (Unless the kids keep it in mind) and the poorly made thumbnails
I swear to fucking god if I see someone else say that humanity is doomed because of fucking Skibidi Toilet then I’m gonna lose it
I mean it's a legitimate concern. That is the mindless consumption of brain dead content. If children don't develop critical thinking skills bad things will happen. Children are literally the future of the human race.
There’s like only three different skibidi toilet channels that are actually good, those the original, multiverse when it switched to going serious about it, and skibidi wars
and that will be the beginning of your villain arc and you'll be the doom of humanity as prophesized.
@@mathiasrryba ………..WHAT???
Humanity is doomed because of skibidi
At the least TV had standards of educational content it had to reach. These have zero standards.
…Because you can do anything you want on UA-cam.
Considering the fact that LankyBox is a channel "for kids", the fact that they showed Sonic.EYX at 14:57, this one exe is regarded as the scariest one in the bunch. Why would they decide to show that to kids???
not to mention the background and the character they're saying EYX is (that pisses me off) is Shin Sonic, who is from an analog horror. Kids should NOT be seeing this type of shit.
@@Notpeppinowithgun1 I guess their goal is actually to traumatize the children who whatch them, why else would they put it in there?
@@Notpeppinowithgun1Actually it’s quite the opposite. The entire video was talking about Shin Sonic yet they’re playing EYX
Gen Ed= the general school children. Please think about how bad it is for children in "Special Education", I know some people hate that term, but I've had relatives and neighbors that taught for multiple decades. So my references are kinda fossilized.
I've meet children in Special Education, under under the age of 9. Multiple children, a few classrooms worth. Some are almost completely non-verbal, but can say "Subscribe!" When they see UA-cam.
Even the children that are very intelligent, but are in Special Education, because of behavior or other diagnosises, are glued to the iPads. It's HEART BREAKING.
And no one seems to talk about it. "Back in my day" Gen Ed kids were supposed to be the role models...

Kids nowadays: "duh, funny colors and not "not-weird" stuff on screen is cool, man!"
My inner kid, after watching many Khrjanowsky and Norstein: "Wow, never did I thought that some Soviet cartoons were both creepy and mesmerizing to watch!"
I can't help but think of bootleg toys I see in extremely local stores when I was a kid in the 2000s.
Difference here, is that I didn't quite get the same kind of shame and self-loathing as I do from seeing these videos.
Dafuqboom made a whole arc and story. There is war and drama. The first few episodes are brain rot-ish but it quickly becomes its own.
How dare you diss max design pro 🙏
IKR
Atleast maxdesignpro is self aware and more kid freindly, he cares more about his audience then other brainrot channels. he even shows fanarts in his animations.
As a person who did watch skibidi toilet from episode one all the way to the current episode,I agree that the current generation's parents are in the wrong for not monitoring a single thing they watch. I can say this since apparently one of my siblings is watching straight up gorey horror at the age of 4. FOUR YEARS OLD. What they should've done is give him a yt kids account AND monitor what they're watching since yt kids isn't safe either. UA-cam has to moderate yt kids better as well.
I don’t even know what a skibidi is which is probably a good thing but parents really need to monitor what their kids are watching if they monitor what they watch on tv it shouldn’t be that hard to monitor what they watch on UA-cam
@SongRepeater A "skibidi" is either a alien or a zombie-like creature from what I gathered from the series's lore. And also yea I actually like the series.
@@EggedGeese Lore? What does that mean? Sorry for all the questions you think that me being a Gen Z I would know what this stuff meant 😂

As an avid Jabroni_Mike viewer, otherwise known as a chatoid, I'm well aware of the brainrot on UA-cam.
I saw that cursed intro in a live stream
is really hard to blame parents here... when the corporations KNOW that the most explorative, hateful, divisive content flooding their apps will be the one that gets the most clicks, and so they choose to never moderate it cause graph need to go up.
Of course the easy answer is 'cause capitalism and CEO greedy', but this goes beyond greed. Is complete detachment, or being unsympathetic to a psychopathic degree
Yes. The the people in charge of UA-cam ever since they got bought out by Google have been psychopaths ever since. Even Susan herself had a touch of it.
Dumb the peasants down so they are too stupid to realize they are being shafted.
There was this little behind-the-scenes/outtakes video of Brandon Rogers and Richard Horvitz recording their lines for Helluva Boss together, full of swears and all kinds of profanities (honestly fun and hilarious to watch if you need a little pick-me-up), and it was listed as a UA-cam KIDS video. Jesus. YT Kids is like a used bandaid floating in the public pool.
The issue isn't the content or the parents not monitoring well enough. The problem is that which facilitates this to happen in the first place.
Yes the content is terrible and yes parents do need to try a bit harder, but pointing fingers isn't the answer, plus the real problem is the very system that facilitates these issues to begin with
Don't forget rocky rakoon. Grabbing characters from vivzie, putting some dumb a$$ song in the background and putting them to dance. You saw Luna in the first seconds of this video mate...that crap is his...

I don’t either and I’m glad I don’t because I don’t watch it! I watch vloggers and stuff like that I don’t watch all the fake stuff those videos annoy me I like to keep it real when I watch UA-cam

Or those that I think are fun to watch without actually being too cringy or too trendy.

@@thelittleal1212 I’m the same way! I watch what I claim to be the real stuff on UA-cam I don’t watch all the fake content I actually can’t stand all the fake/cringey stuff that kids watch today I watch what makes me happy and if that’s the OG’s or a good music video than I’m all for it heck I don’t mind the challenges or games once in a while it just depends on the creator for me
@@SongRepeater yeah, often if it comes to Big game or challenge videos, their under the influence of people like Mr beast and such, which is just annoying, not trying to rant all over it, but simply put, I completely agree with many of the OG UA-camrs statements on the modern state of UA-cam and many of the big content creators bad influence on the UA-cam system
Still, not saying all challenge videos are bad, there’s still great ones like Dudeperfect and HowRidiculous and such
@@thelittleal1212 yeah exactly! I’m not a huge fan of Dude Perfect but I can stand to watch one or two of their videos but Mr. Beast is a whole different story I actually find him to be kinda annoying and I’ve heard he’s not the friendliest person to be around so I don’t really watch people like that

Easy solution, don't give your small child a smart phone.
Technically You can still give em an iPad. So that does absolutely nothing to help the situation. Tablets aren’t really smart phones.

Elsagate is brainrot. It's the first content farm, or atleast the begging of a wave of them.

it’s a shame that kids doesn’t watch normal stuff… parents should put on something normal for their children. If the child puts on a brainrot video, the parents should immediately change the video into something normal.

I think really the biggest issue people are missing here is kind of a given and an easy answer is still basically the root problem: It’s Late Stage Capitalism.
Like yes there is absolutely a personal accountability on the parents who do nothing to at least prevent or to mitigate the screen time/ media their kids consume. BUUUUT 4 major points
1. Why can’t parents pay more attention to their kids?
Almost 40% of Americans have 2 jobs just to make ends meet. And many of these are full time with limited to no PTO and limited benefits. From the Labor Bureau in 2023. Along with minimum Federal Wages being stagnant at 7.25/hr.
2. Why do kids even have access to these devices. Technology has boomed like Saber said but also in creating these slops of garbage people can just pump them out quickly and without and care or quality control. It’s not like these devices are inherently evil they can absolutely benefit children in many way but legislation hasn’t caught up to this level almost predatory market of content farming brainrot.
3. Why do some kids even with parents who limit their screen time still not pay attention? Mental health/ Nutrition yes shockingly if you can’t afford or meet your daily calories needed your mental attentiveness with suffer. And when even the stuff you’re eating isn’t healthy or of good quality Oxford academic has done multiple studies.
4. Is it too late? While the last 3 points will absolutely take time to change legislation. No we need to invest in better technology limitations for kids, create healthy safe spaces for children online with good moderation behind it. EDUCATING CHILDREN ON INTERNET SAFETY OH PLEASE OH PLEASE.
This, so many people are missing the point that this issue is a systemic one, made up of many interconnected problems. Poor pay, worker exploitation, underfunded social programs meant to help families, lack of access to healthy foods, alienation, etc. For real change to be made, we have to address the issue from every single angle. Enact strong worker protections that ensure PTO, focus community planning to move away from social alienation (walkable spaces instead of car dependent suburbia), place similar regulations on online kids content to what the FTC did to TV in the 1990s, enact stronger regulations against food companies to make sure they aren’t throwing in harmful ingredients that are outlawed in countries with stronger food safety standards, and sign laws into place that make tech companies be more transparent with their practices just to name a few.
It’s going to take time for change to occur, but the future will be much better if we get the ball rolling
Speaking as someone who's an older gen z (not gonna say zoomer cuz that word is often used by older gens to mock my gen) who is technically in the middle of millennial and gen z, I've watched younger gen z and gen alpha be consumed by this stuff and have their brain developments ruined. It's quite sad.. I was raised on vhs's and dvds (we didn't have the money for 'newer' stuff, all these were hand me downs from my older cousins), and i can't even stand seeing 3 seconds of this brainrot kids content in a skippable ad or in a review. I have to deal with my younger sister being into this content and struggling to break her away from it due to addictive it is. It's truely an epidemic of entertainment
It is sad what today the generation of kids was watching on youtube.
I remember as a kid I watched Lego stop motions, EddsWorld, random funny video clips.
EDDSWORLD GANG YOOOOO
But that's still on on youtube though, the difference is the quality is much worse now than it was 10 years ago.
I was a teenager when UA-cam first started, but even I remember watching the "Evolution of Dance" video.
@michaelstrong5383 Oh yeah, I remember that video.
I also remember watching the Go Blawh video too.
Its not even just affecting the younger kids, i work as a college lecturer with kids aged between 16-18 and this fast paced content has 100% impacted the way they retain information, shits scary
Seriously, it's everywhere and I'm terrified
These parents often don't give a shit on what their kids watch. I've seen kids say F words, talk about inappropriate stuff. And their parents barely bat an eye. And these kids are developing problems because of these overstimulants. But no one cares.
did dawg render the thumbnail in 360p??😭😭
lets get one thing out of the way, there is many different types of brainrot and the ones aimed specifically at kids is the worst type no question but there is also the unironically funny brainrot aimed at more mature audiences that can understand that what there watching is not normal and its fine because it wont have the same effect on adults as children.
one of my favorite brainrot/lobotomy memes comes from yapdollar and the jujutsu kaisen fandom, they are wildd.
