Kids that would click on this stuff are around the age where they can barely read or write, let alone be interested in a comments section..

If we are to assume it is an abuse situation, then a lot of these comments are full of nonsense comments. Likely from children pressing random buttons. But this would enable predators to comb through the comments to find any identifiable accounts. And sometimes the children are old enough to Have barely legible conversations which the predators can take advantage of

YouTube has be recommending me random videos with less than 100 views lately. Some of them are random vlogs and uploads ranging from elderly people to random truck drivers or children. The latter occasionally has some random accounts leaving creepy ass comments

Yeah, if they're old enough to put together a YouTube video then they can likely read. I've talked with some parents and their kids who've been approached like this. Maybe they target the accounts that are gibberish and watch till they develop language skills. Beyond fucked up predation.

It's a moral duty for all parents to learn how to pirate movies and TV shows and only allow their children to watch Spongebob, Arthur, Blues Clues, etc. with no ads, no comment sections, no screaming youtubers telling them to buy their tshirts

One of the good things about state owned broadcasting. Here in Norway they have three separate channels and one of them runs stuff for kids from the early morning till seven at night with zero ads. And everything is available for streaming free of charge on their ad-free website as well.

YES! And Sesame Street, Bob Ross, Mr. Rodgers, maybe even Bill Nye if he only talks about science.

My partner got a recco for an unknown channel with thousands of long videos of this extremely autistic person recording themselves playing Tomodachi Life on their DS using a handheld camera. It was absolutely fascinating.
