Children dominate the hours watched of platforms like YouTube, (demonstrated very well in Anne Reardon's 'three questions Youtube won't answer') dominating the way their algorithms are designed.

Children for millennia have been forced to suffer entertainment created by adults, often ramming helpful life lessons down their throats or trying to be educational, with very limited shouting.

The videos many children watch today are incomprehensible to anyone over the age of about 25, and generally elicit such strong aversion in adults they can't watch more than 30 seconds.

This cover has allowed children the opportunity to subtly infect adult discourse.

Folding Ideas recent beast games video is another classic encapsulation of this - mainstream platforms like amazon prime is now buying sloptimised nonsence thinking it will appeal generally, and are surprised when adults think it's terrible.

The children have already brainwashed our big tech overlords to think incoherent nonsense is good, and if we don't act soon we'll be next.
