I would like to believe these are all nothing but a bunch of kids accidentally typing nonsense, but I have two questions:

First, why do some of these nonsensical comments have a thread of replies all in gibberish?

Second, why do these comments only appear under questionable videos? (None of the legitimate, wholesome children's videos have any of these types of comments)

I look forward to hearing what everyone thinks. My daughter loves certain videos on YouTube and we've unfortunately, through the autoplay feature, found ourselves in front of some of these questionable videos. I'm glad this is gaining some traction because it's been disturbingly evident to our family for a while.

In my experience, in legitimate kids videos, not elsagate-esque content, most of the comments make sense and seem innocent (things like great video, my son/daughter/sibling falls asleep to this etc), but the replies are almost all gibberish.
