It's so fucking baffling that this is the youtube thumbnail meta, shit fills me with revulsion.
The nonpolitical nonbiased algorithm's bias decreed what thumbnails and what delivery methods are successful, and pushes those to the front which makes them more successful which pressures more videos into being the same way which fulfills the algorithm's biases

My theory is that some of them want to be the new soyjak, and become a meme. It's weird but the two soyjaks pointing meme ironically made me like the original people doing the point even more.
I don't think the average YouTuber is terminally online enough to know what a soyjak is
They're probably just copying mr beast or something

Why motherfuckers think i want to see into their mouth? I'm not a dentist, stop showing your gaping face-pussy at me.
forming an LLC to limit your liability when committing felonies.
"No officer, I'm not liable for this gangland style execution because I'm registered as an LLC."
"Oh, I see. Move along, then."He looks like he’s tryna cast a curse on me. I guess maybe because he is in a way.
"THAT'S RIGHT, TEN TEETH, I WILL GIVE YOU TEN OF MY PRECIOUS TEETH IF YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO. LOOK AT THEIR SMOOTH PERFECTION. YOU CRAVE THEM IN YOUR MOUTH. YOU NEED THEM. WATCH MY VIDEO."
