In your reality, a hundred billion dollar machine is paying children pennies to make fools of themselves.
Um... Kids make fools of themselves all the time. They need no special encouragement to do so. There's just several places where such behavior can be shared. And the more videos uploaded, the less likely any one person's video is going to be seen by more than a tiny, tiny fraction of the viewership.
Aiding the evil channeling through Youtube does not even pay pennies in most cases.
'Kay. Still not seeing the 'evil' to justify the alarmism.
Learning to tie your shoes is a colorful experience on Youtube I bet. Imagine being a child new to the lcd glow of hells entry points. A Mom Logs on Youtube, hands the tablet to her child and goes to take care of some housework, like washing the crack pipes. The child is left alone in a room with every perverted animal rapist on the face of the planet.
Yes, yes, technology always leaves the innocent at the mercy of predators.
Jeez.
Hey, if the parent really is abandoning the kid for crack pipe maintenance, the kid's already lost, whether Youtube is a tool of Satan or Jesus, or just some morals-indifferent application. Your problem would be the parenting, not the internet.
Thumbnail pictures of a mean Mom holding a shoe could easily lead to the one video that warps kid's mind forever.
You know, that still doesn't require an internet. My biggest pre-teen mind warp involved a trip to Yellowstone with an alcoholic uncle. It was after Easter. I was thinking of those marshmallow 'peeps' when I saw 'peep show.'
After a life of desensitizing, the once happy, second hand crack inhaling child will be insane beyond the basic notion of simple, 1980's cinema robbery, which is the reality I prefer.
And again, you're building up alarmist speculation on top of a child already doomed by crack addict parents.
Just how is this a problem for those of us who surf youtube and don't find all this evil you're perceiving?
The child of Youtube will document our suffering and upload it to Youtube as a ritual offering.
Oh, hey, I think I read this fanfiction! Do you post as Esotare1887?
