A few weeks ago, I called Ms. Rachael a "slot peddler" for toddlers and accused her of being a political propagandist and a "slop peddler," which means that she should be kept away from your kids as much as possible. But turns out, not everybody agrees with me.

00:00:34.980 criticisms of miss rachel the youtuber who makes uh content for children and i called her a slot
00:00:41.840 peddler for toddlers which she is talks down to her audience speaks to kids in a way that nobody in
00:00:47.440 real life does and uh and on top of that she's a political propagandist and which means that you 1.00
00:00:54.700 should keep her as far away from your kids as you possibly can but turns out that not everybody
00:00:59.300 agrees shockingly uh there are some miss rachel apologists out there so we'll go through some of
00:01:04.440 the comments some that disagree some that agree kd mo says tweets she has two master's degrees in
00:01:14.800 education but cry harder about it matt oh a master's degree wow kd kd kd two of them two master's
00:01:26.740 degree wow i mean the only thing more impressive than two master's degrees is three why not four
00:01:32.840 why not 12 yeah i don't care what does that have to do with anything it's hilarious to me when people
00:01:39.980 still try to use this are you gonna try that on me you think that's gonna impress me oh she has
00:01:45.280 she has these pieces of paper i'll have you know she has a piece of paper in a frame hanging on her
00:01:53.260 wall well what do you say about so a master's degree in education
00:02:00.340 and guess what i know more about raising kids and teaching them and communicating with them than she
00:02:08.380 does i know more than the vast majority of people with with uh degrees in education
00:02:15.600 because she read books and took courses taught mostly by childless left-wing feminists 0.99
00:02:23.980 and i've actually raised six kids so guess who's more educated on the topic
00:02:30.060 like i have i have daily experience uh with teaching educating raising kids
00:02:40.920 and she has a uh she has a master's degree who cares guess who has the credentials that actually 0.99
00:02:49.020 matter that doesn't mean that i'm right about everything that has to do with parenting i can be
00:02:52.900 wrong we all get things wrong obviously it just means that i don't give the slightest
00:02:57.180 about your little master's degree um another comments says i find it off-putting that she
00:03:06.880 calls kids littles makes me think that she has an age regression fetish because that's how all those 1.00
00:03:12.340 weirdos refer to themselves but yeah it's not a fetish thing i mean it might
00:03:16.420 maybe those weirdos do refer to each other that way but that's not what it is i'll tell you what it is
00:03:24.220 uh calling kids littles or kiddos it's like calling your dog a doggo
00:03:30.180 kiddos and doggos all that it that's that's cringe millennial female jargon that's that's all that 1.00
00:03:39.540 is every woman between the ages of 31 and 49 uses those terms i know there's gonna be women in the 1.00
00:03:48.040 comments they're like i'm 35 and i don't use those terms yes you do yes you do you might not even know
00:03:53.300 that you say it but you all do littles kiddos doggos i do i find it highly annoying but that
00:04:03.260 is uh i can't blame her much for that she's 42 or something it's just i don't know what it is i don't
00:04:10.720 know where you ladies pick this up okay because our parents generation they didn't talk that way 1.00
00:04:16.600 my mom didn't go around saying come on look at all the doggos let's go get a doggo kiddo 0.98
00:04:23.680 but like our our parents didn't talk that way where did you get this where did you pick up where
00:04:29.780 where did you pick this up i really don't know but every single woman between 31 and 49 talks this
00:04:36.320 way i don't get it brianna says all this hate against miss rachel is like saying barney would make
00:04:42.340 your kid into a furry also most tired moms turn to a video of singing school on the bus
00:04:47.380 while they prepare dinner just say you hate women and men are perfect also mr rogers was incredibly
00:04:54.040 boring well no i'm not saying that miss rachel will turn your kid into miss rachel so your barney
00:05:00.880 analogy doesn't really work i'm saying that putting the politics aside miss rachel is slop it's it's 1.00
00:05:06.860 over stimulating patronizing slop childish and i know someone like you you're like well of course
00:05:16.040 it's childish it's four children the fact that you think that way the fact that you don't understand
00:05:20.860 the difference between childish and four children um that's exactly the problem and
00:05:31.660 if you give your kids a steady diet of this slop it will turn them into dumb distractible adults
00:05:38.040 who struggle with basic comprehension it'll turn them into basically
00:05:44.060 you brianna i'm willing to bet that you as a kid watched earlier versions of miss rachel's slop you
00:05:51.900 probably watched uh barney and i don't know i maybe it didn't turn you into a furry i don't know
00:05:58.100 if you're that or not but wouldn't surprise me but it did turn you into kind of a dumb person
00:06:03.800 so that's the problem and as for mr rogers yeah you thought mr rogers was boring because you were
00:06:09.580 overstimulated and you needed constant bright colors and loud noises and quick movement on screen
00:06:15.000 to keep your attention and that's exactly the issue again and look how you turned out you can barely
00:06:21.700 write coherently you can't understand the arguments i'm making you can't structure your own argument
00:06:26.880 uh you can't you can't make you can't form an analogy it's one one to me one of the one of
00:06:35.140 the quintessential signs that someone is low iq is when they can't use and when they can't
00:06:39.200 understand an analogy or use one to illustrate a point so and you're overly emotional and ridiculous
00:06:48.280 you think all men are perfect what do you think that that's of you that anyone has yeah i think all 0.78
00:06:56.140 men are what are you talking about brianna you actually think that that even in your cartoon
00:07:03.020 world where all men who are right-wing or sexist and misogynist even in that world we would at least
00:07:11.080 think that every man who's a leftist is certainly not perfect
00:07:14.400 who do you think who do you think walks around with that view just like
00:07:20.220 every man is better than every woman that is a view that literally does not exist on the planet
00:07:28.740 it is not a human on earth who has that view
00:07:31.620 okay you have the mentality of a child and i don't think it's entirely because of the slop you watched 0.68
00:07:40.900 and and consumed as a child as a child but that certainly didn't help matters as we can see
00:07:45.260 uh let's see man if you only knew the answer to who's putting youtube on for babies you'd need a
00:07:53.840 stiff drink it's everyone you know how when you drive on the highway and literally every single
00:07:57.940 human behind a steering wheel is watching their phone in their lap it's like that everybody with
00:08:02.660 babies is doing this i envy the optimism born for being surrounded by conservatives who maybe don't do
00:08:07.360 it but i promise you that is extraordinarily rare these days absolutely everybody with babies is putting
00:08:11.980 screens in front of them and pumping this horrendous crap into their eyes and ears around the clock
00:08:16.960 yeah i don't doubt it i mean it's not literally everyone i know you're slightly exaggerating but
00:08:22.220 it it's um i don't doubt that it is shockingly uh horrifically disturbingly common
00:08:29.880 um i mean obviously we all know that people that parents rely on screens way too much but
00:08:35.860 it is i would like to think if i were naive that okay we're not starting that until at least like
00:08:44.440 three i don't know give the kid a couple of years two three years uh before you turn them into a
00:08:52.560 zoned out zombie staring at a screen but yeah there's parents and probably a lot of parents are doing this
00:08:58.840 starting in infancy uh finally blippy is another creator who has similar vibes he dresses and talks
00:09:06.620 childish i believe he had a creepy past before turning to children's television oh yeah believe
00:09:10.120 me i've dealt with blippy i did a whole show about it you can go back and watch an episode a couple
00:09:13.120 years ago where i was uh tearing blippy apart and you can go watch that and uh i had to go back and
00:09:19.640 check because i haven't heard about blippy and i and it appears that blippy is still a thing
00:09:23.560 still churning out videos but there's a bunch of new blippy so the original blippy the really weird
00:09:30.820 creepy guy i don't know if he's still involved uh behind the scenes i'm sure he's profiting but
00:09:37.140 now there's a bunch of them it looks like i mean i did about three minutes of research into this and
00:09:41.200 it looks like there's a bunch of blippies on the blippy channel there's an asian one there's a bunch 0.98
00:09:45.420 of different ones but the videos are still the same so i clicked on one video just to confirm that
00:09:51.200 this is still happening and it's uh just as bad as it ever was and yeah it's the asian blippy 1.00
00:09:56.600 a grown-ass man playing in some kind of playground some kind of child's play area
00:10:03.800 riding around on a like a power wheels holding a stuffed animal and it's like a 12-minute video
00:10:12.340 where it's just that it's this grown man playing in this looks like the play area the children's area
00:10:18.420 maybe like a if you go to a um science center or something like that it looks like that
00:10:24.260 and this is exactly what i'm talking about and miss rachel is not as bad as that but it's the same
00:10:31.600 genre you've got a grown adult man acting like a child talking like a child playing on a playground
00:10:39.240 by himself with a stuffed animal as a parent if that doesn't set off a million alarm bells i don't
00:10:46.780 know what to tell you if you're creepy weird if you're like creepy weirdo radar isn't picking that
00:10:54.140 up then you're totally dysfunctional as a parent and um especially for a man to be acting this way
00:11:05.740 now i think as i've said miss rachel she's very patronizing she talks like a child to children 1.00
00:11:10.940 and i think that that is not the right way again i don't have a master's degree but i know just from
00:11:17.000 being a parent that's not how you talk to kids um your kids your kids are around other kids who talk
00:11:24.660 like kids they need you to talk like an adult because the goal is for your child to eventually
00:11:30.280 be able to communicate like an adult and if you want your child to be able to communicate
00:11:35.140 in a mature way then you need to communicate in a mature way with them and they're going to pick up
00:11:42.320 on that that's basic stuff but at least from you know for a for a woman to do this it's a little bit 1.00
00:11:51.840 more uh natural i mean miss rachel goes way overboard but women it comes more naturally to sort of speak 1.00
00:11:59.400 on the child level uh to do a little bit more of the baby talk stuff and and uh you know for so for
00:12:06.000 for and there's there's also a kind of a an adult way of uh speaking on the level of a child uh like
00:12:14.700 my so one example is is my wife if she if she if she wants to sit down and watch a movie with our kids 0.98
00:12:24.800 she's going to usually want to pick like a kid's movie you know like a children's movie 0.98
00:12:30.740 for the kids and if i'm sitting down to watch a movie then i want to pick like an adult i want to
00:12:37.760 pick a movie that's appropriate for kids but is but is you know a movie for adults a movie a movie
00:12:43.660 that's like a real movie that kids can also enjoy now the problem is that um those are few and far
00:12:51.760 between these days they don't hollywood doesn't really make those kinds of movies anymore unfortunately
00:12:55.280 they should but um but you know that's what i'm looking for a movie that is a little bit more
00:13:01.400 uh for like an older audience but but is but is appropriate for kids whereas my my wife well she's 1.00
00:13:07.440 going to go for the kids if we're playing a game like my my wife will sit down and play whatever like 1.00
00:13:12.440 candyland or something or some some kids board game with the kids if i'm going to play with the kids
00:13:17.820 well i want to play monopoly like i want to like yeah let's play a game we're going to let's play
00:13:22.140 hearts right like i'm going to teach you how to play the game for adults and i'm going to play it with
00:13:26.880 you and um that's and even the way that i speak to the kids from basically from infancy is i i speak
00:13:37.520 to them in much the way that i'm talking right now i just speak the way that i speak and my wife
00:13:45.500 because she's a woman she does more of the so that it's more natural my only point is that
00:13:49.740 especially when you've got these men youtube youtubers for kids and they're doing this whole
00:13:58.700 routine it's even weirder and i think it should even send up it even sets off more alarm bells
00:14:05.400 because it's not natural it's not masculine this is a strange way for a man to act
00:14:12.620 it's very weird for a man to relate to kids this way and that there's certainly no benefit 0.96
00:14:19.880 to the kids it's not educational it's not edifying it's not helping them to grow
00:14:24.780 or anything like that if it's doing anything really it's making the kid comfortable with the kinds of
00:14:33.220 adults that they should be wary of right if you go to the playground and you see an adult man
00:14:40.820 by himself playing on the playground it's not like he has a two-year-old with him and he's helping
00:14:48.000 his two-year-old climb the jungle gym i'm saying you see an adult man by himself playing on a
00:14:54.360 playground are you going to want your kid to go anywhere near that person you're probably going
00:14:59.060 to call the cops you're going to say like get this person out of here this is bizarre and yet you
00:15:05.280 would have your kid watching somebody like that on youtube and becoming comfortable around these
00:15:10.200 that kind of person i think that is uh along with all the other problems it's it's unsafe honestly
00:15:18.540 for the kids so there you go uh what i take from these comments is that i'm still right in fact i'm
00:15:26.580 even more right than i ever thought i was that's the that's the lesson
