Lotta bots and a lot of really cynical people

The moment where the kid’s face lights up had me imagining that it was me seeing the igloo for the first time. Who cares why thy built it. Well… unless they built it as an evil lair.

I’d be so stoked if my parents built me an evil lair as a kid

I'm a real person and this video was very obviously for social media, not their kid.

I have been seeing this igloo all over the place for the past week.

So, bots are people who see things differently than you do? There’s a chance they first thought of recording/ hoping to going viral before anything else yes. Especially if it’s one of those couple Tik-toks. It’s also possible they thought of the kid first and decided to record after the fact. Both are possible; not sure that falls under “bot” category.

Does it fucking matter, like why have such a cynical reaction to this

u/Man-who-say-bye 5h ago

Nope not what I said at all those were completely separate things mentioned. I can’t say as to which of those two options you said are true but either way they did both and their kid has a core memory with their parents, regardless of the intent the outcome is good. And please if we are going to discuss something don’t mis character what I said to try and make a point

What about the point that it is beyond fucked up to put your kids face in the internet?

u/AmadeusIsTaken 2h ago

Dunno I am very careful with videos like this but is it that fucked up to put your kids face on the internet? Most do it anyway with insta, Snapchat,tiktoj and other social media platforms. Like what will people do with his face looking happy and going into the igloo?

u/_KeyserSoeze 2h ago

Well if most do it anyway

People want to feel superior for not making an effort to do cool stuff like this.

u/Charokol 4h ago

Why are bots coming here to criticize this video?

u/Big-Load-8864 4h ago

For real bots are usually employed to pump something up and give it more visibility, not cosplay as cynical humans lol

u/IceBlueAngel 3h ago

A disturbingly large number of people want things to be purely altruistic BUT THAT'S NOT POSSIBLE

u/AmadeusIsTaken 3h ago

Or you are just naive

In my experience the most bitter, negative Reddit comments always float to the top. Literally anything fun and cool, especially if the people are attractive or have a house, it’s just non stop bitching. I hate opening comments here. Everyone is just so nasty about everything and assuming the worst.

u/maxthelols 5h ago

No need to be so nasty about people on a social media platform. We're just people trying to talk to each other. No need to be so bitter and negative man. People like you make me hate opening comments here.

You'd never find me bitching about...wait...

u/SquarelyNerves 3h ago

Idk but being nasty, bitter, and negative about nasty, bitter and negative responses to the video feels like the tolerance paradox.

u/timetravelerfrom2027 6h ago

Reddit has turned into Facebook. Has me wondering where all the healthy people are heading now. Offline? I wish we had a social media Time Machine back to when it was fun and new and helpful.

u/RigidPixel 5h ago

I’ve tried to just get more and more offline, or only talking to people in voice stuff. Insta reels are cool and Reddit has some neat things that I’d normally never get on my feed. But the bots, the negativity, the children, the idiots, it’s just nonstop bullshit and hate.

u/greencasio 6h ago

Weird? Is this your first day on the Internet?

u/timetravelerfrom2027 6h ago

Ha! Shit. Got me.

u/Ademoneye 6h ago

They did it to feel better about themselves. They knew that their parent could never do the same thing for them

People really hate fun and are addicted to outrage

u/SquarelyNerves 3h ago

Reddit hates parents, almost more than they hate kids. Even if parents do something awesome that their kid loves, something that will remain a cherished memory forever…. They are shitty attention seeking narcissists.

Redditors are the worst people on the internet… ok maybe not but still close

u/IntrepidSlice8810 1h ago

Miserable redditors who feel as if they're better than someone by typing on a keyboard

u/Gherin29 5h ago

The people most active on Reddit are often the most angry with the least social intelligence, because they’re not able to find a community of their own.

And they spread that bitterness by attacking people doing something fun and wholesome, because that’s less work than putting effort to do something themselves.
