Every single time someone posts some random Tik Tok or Youtube short style video on Reddit..... My blood instantly boils.

I don't even know how to describe it, everything from the Editing, the stupid a*** click bait thumbnail, their tone..... Literally all of it is just diarrhea of the mind ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

Why is this s**** so popular? And kids are growing up watching this trash for 8 hours a day? The hell does that do to someone's personality? Their psychological health?

How do ADULTS watch that crap non stop. How are they not embarrassed?

I am a visual person. Regardless of platform the uniform delivery style of all videos and shorts is tired. The tropes, the doing it for likes, monetisation, the monotone voice. There is little originality or genuine creativity to it. It could be good but the cycle of garbage combined with the self juicing algorithm makes it really irritating.
