    Oh, Mr. Baler! It's almost as if I said
    And even clarified in that post and previously that I'm not going to be worried about children who are in places they shouldn't be, on the internet. I have no control over them, and I'm not going to moderate my behavior everywhere just to avoid damaging them. This isn't a place for young children. I'm not going to behave like it is. And you don't, so stop grandstanding already, please.

    You say that those can't describe the same thing. But, you don't seem to be very good at this, so let me break it down:
    The fact it exists- Concerning
    The contents it contains- Hilariously stupid and Cringe
    Overall- Fairly interesting
    Point out any contradictions, please.

    I suppose I could have misinterpreted something, but it's hardly a point I am focused on. I would argue I treated the OP as neutral, and the title could be taken either way. You just decided to interpret as super serious, even with evidence to the contrary, and to turn this into a personal argument rather than one about the video, or even a conversation about why that video should or shouldn't be posted. Both of which would have been actually interesting, insightful conversations.


    Just talking or pointing something out doesn't make it 'blow up'. It looks like people have been making response videos about her for years now, channels ranging from 1k to 400k+ subscribers.
    That is an entire discussion that needs more than one post to be had. Just hiding something away cements it. It wouldn't get as much attention, but the attention it does get will be incredibly loyal and dedicated, without anybody to challenge them. I don't sweep my problems, or things I view as problems, under the rug. I drag them out and challenge them to see how they stand in the eyes of everyone else.

    There are much worse ideas than whatever this video is preaching I didnt even watch it on these servers and forums for young kids.

    I fully admit, when I say something, I stand by it, longer than is typically proper. If I believe in something, I am willing to push that belief, even if it is trivial. That's just the kind of person I am.

    In this situation, however, you are the only one making a controversy. You are the one turning this into an argument. You turned this into a personal attack on me, not my ideas, not the video, but on me.

    What I do is discuss and argue the topic. I participate in controversy because I find controversy interesting, and it's something that I have something to say about. I make it about the issue, not the person, and if I notice I am making it personal? I withdraw. And I don't always notice, either in a timely fashion or at all. And I do make exception to this, when dealing with people like you, who care more about attacking the person than they do the idea.

    I defend my stance on things, and I challenge people's ideas. I'm not always right, and I often go to far, but at least I stick to the argument. Grow up. The only child that's going to be damaged by me posting this video is you.

  6. You sound like an old mother, saying that all these gosh-darned video games are killing the children and possessing them with demons. Even children know these videos are stupid.

    I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but I don't care. I don't like here as much as the next guy, but it's just not something worth worrying about.

    Love you. (y)

    I believe that when someone is capable of rational and intelligent thought, that is when you should teach them of your own beliefs
    Pushing your opinions on kids at an early age effectively brainwashes them, and I'd say about 90% of the time, their opinions don't change from what their parents taught them was right their entire lives
    Not only hearing these opinions, but things like going to church, marching in rallies for things their parents drag them to, etc. develop a sense of routine that may not be broken in their future

    1. If you don't want to watch the videos or engage in conversation, don't? Nobody is forcing you to and he describes what the videos are about decent enough to know what you'd get yourself into

    2. It's not like now that we see these videos he has effectively turned us. His main issue is that children, or more likely, parents of children make their children watch this stuff and regard it as fact

    I would have just edited this in, but you can't do that no more. A rather amusing countenance to this channel
