There was an article covering this, but it didn't go into the fetishy nature and linked a very mild example. I watched this example exactly once, yesterday, and now I can't get that fucking infernal Family Finger song out of my head.
 
Are... are we sure this isn't, like, dimensional interference or something?

Maybe this is what the Cenobites show their kids, and The Order of the Gash's youtube channels are showing up in our world of flesh and mortality?

...they have such sights to show us.
 
Finger Family Song? Is that a sexual metaphor for fingering ones own asshole?

We sang this one in kindergarten. But I think the lyrics have changed over time or region or whatever. They weren't a family. They were a bunch of men of different heights. It's supposed to teach you to count and know the difference between your fingers. It's something you're supposed to sing along with your parents and teachers though. Not something you are parked in front of Youtube with autoplay on for hours at a time. That, along with the freaky ass videos makes it all very creepy.

Do parents even sing to their kids anymore? With all the kids that don't know shapes, colors, the alphabet or how to count to ten by kindergarten you have to wonder. These stupid videos aren't teaching jack. They're just super creepy and I'm glad Youtube is finally cracking down. It's nothing but hours of babysitting. Plus for some reason Spiderman is boning Elsa.

A couple weeks ago I was in Walmart and there was a lady at the deli counter. Her toddler had a phone and was listening to the finger family on Youtube over and over and over. It was probably on the entire time they were at the store. It's annoying as hell to shop with someone blasting music. I don't get it at all. When I was little we didn't have walkmans on listening to Sesame Street tapes or anything. But you see so much of this when shopping is a good opportunity to teach your kids about stuff like shapes, colors and nutrition.

You would think it would be nice if parents actually set aside time for that.

Lazy/apathetic parents are nothing new, it's just new technology that makes it easier for them to not give a shit. When my folks lived in coastal Mississippi a few years before I was born every mother except for mine would literally lock their kids out of the house all day just so they wouldn't have to deal with them. When I was young a neighbor/classmate crapped himself because his parents wouldn't let him in to use the bathroom. If they were born 30/35 years later they would absolutely be part of this demographic.
 
Parents like that bug me. There are lots of parents out there who are physically unable to have their own kids who would love to have and raise them.

Instead we have people who shouldn't be parents letting their kids rot their brains on YouTube. Much like they themselves rot their brains on television.
 
I'm legitimately surprised that the algorithm that inspires the content of a lot of these "Finger Family", "Peppa Pig goes to the torture dentist", and "Elsa, Spiderman, and Joker" videos doesn't yet seem to have incorporated the "Steamed Hams" meme.
Either they don't know of it or simply don't know how to get that into their vids.
 
The kids I wrangle for a living sing the finger family song at kindergarten so naturally they sing it all the time at home too. I didn't know this, I only knew the song from these videos, so I was concerned enough to ask their parents if they ever let them access Youtube unsupervised. They stopped doing that after I showed them a few of the really dodgy finger family vids.

Still, every time one of them starts singing it, I start thinking of bad CG dinosaurs, spidermen and explosions.
 
^ My four-year old nephew likes "Johnny Johnny, Yes Papa", so I guess his parents let him watch at least some of what's available on the dodgy side of Children's Youtube, not that I'm going to tell my brother how to raise his kids. (He's a doctor so if I nag him about something, I'll get ten times the amount of nagging back.)
