    i know of many instances where parents showed children stuff like Rend and Stimpy because it was a cartoon but didn’t allow them to watch SpongeBob,

    just because you know living breathing examples of the youtube algorithm…

        it was a joke about youtube labeling anything animated as ‘a cartoon for children’ despite the actual content.

          Ah, didn’t know of that. That is… Well unfortunate, but we know youtube is pretty bad at labeling stuff. I don’t usually use YouTube for cartoons, the stuff i don’t have on disk gets downloaded to a disk.
