Depends. Some stuff like Skibidi Toilet definitely takes some time to create (animating is pretty hard even if it's stupid content), but then there's lots of completely effortless content that is just easy grab for views.

u/no3215 19d ago
100% agree on this. Of course there was also slop back then, just not as much. But honestly there is a pretty good reason for this. The amount of people who actively make content and fight for views is so much higher so its understandable that some people try and game the system with shitty low budget kids content

u/Desk_Drawerr 19d ago
I genuinely do not get the hate for skibidi toilet. Like yeah, kids watch it and it's dumb. But we watched exactly the same kind of gmod/sfm shit as kids. "I am full of sandwiches and I am coming for you" was peak humour.

Corporate media is ruining kid's brains.
All of your examples are based on things caused by predominately American businessmen exploiting young people's ignorance for generations. Ignorance doesn't mean stupid, it's just a lack of knowledge. Young people aren't taught this kind of stuff so they just don't know about it.
GenZ, please dont let yourself become grumpy boomers
The boomers weren't bad guys. This is just a value imposed by corporate propaganda to get young people to be mad at old people instead of being mad at the people who have been ripping everyone off.

i grew up with mlg, shrek is love, shrek is life was extremely popular back then, i had friends that imitated the loud mainstream youtubers, i had a spanish accent while being from south america, skibidi toilet just goes back to the type of content from the early 2010's and the amount of hate it gets is unnecessary, there is a huge difference in not liking something or thinking its cringe, and going into the skibidi toilet subreddit or whatever other place where they have a community and then scream into the childrens ears how cringe it is, that they should feel ashamed of liking it, or even sending death threats to them. (This has happened, ive been in that subreddit and seen a lot of hate towards kids that probably barely get into the ToS of reddit.)

True, these images of Doritos, mountain dew and COD crosshair actually have context, originally it's a satire on how corporations tried to appeal to "gamers" they wanted to monetize. Also the MLG edits have roots in frag montages people have been making ever since screen capture became available.
MLG thing got out of control and became stale eventually, but it didn't come out of nowhere, it's an actual meme because people understood what it meant to convey and exaggerate for comedic purposes.

The problem stems from it moving toward corporate empty manufactured high paced content. This has a ton of problems; from hurting developing brains due to the pace to it just being made to make money and as such being "perfectly" child friendly, or at least attractive.
There's a lot of genuine problems with the way entertainment has been moving. Same reason Mr. Beast is the most popular. The internet has lost it's "organic" nature. It's going full corporate.
And turns out corporate means empty media to keep you busy with psychological tricks they've perfected over years and years with least effort.
There is genuine problems here.

Yeah I can agree that most of the YouTube brainrot now are made by channels that are basically trying to make quick buck from any trending thing by making it into a shitty kid oriented content, while before 2020's brainrot usually were more like shitposts made by independent content creators. And it really was different too, creativity had a hand, source material wasn't filled with trending things most of the time and wasn't targeted at kids.

MLG is a lot of effort to edit. Also everyone knew it was stupid. Also most people consumed a lot of other styles of content too.
I say this as a generation that preceded the MLG stuff and who never enjoyed MLG content because it was too loud. But genuinely, the stuff targeted at kids now is 95% incredibly low effort trash.
There’s more great content now than there was back then. But there’s so much more content out there now that it’s incredibly diluted.

The new brainrot content has just gotten weird, five nights at Freddies toy chica sex role plays and Fortnite girl fart animations and shit on youtube, PORN essentially. Not to mention the people acting like they have some kind of disorder, or the people acting like literal babies and animals, things have just gotten even weirder is all im saying.
MLG was just straight unfiltered retardation to a (hopefully) exaggerated degree, but at least it was somewhat normal, people were just taking a bunch of different memes and throwing them in your face in an exaggerated (keyword) way is literally the whole point of an MLG edit.
Are both still brainrot? Yes but one of them feels very different than the other
