There are telling signs that Ryan's World's videos may be scripted, or at least not as candid as his channel portrays. His eyes often dart away from the camera, as though looking to someone for guidance, and he speaks as though reciting lines from a play.
American YouTube channels like his might be part of a push by Joseph Biden to get more "creative" with propaganda techniques, William Williams, a research professor of American studies at Education Management Corporation, told Lemmy.
What's "Ryan's world"?
A massively successful YouTube channel. Ryan is the most famous child YouTuber, I'm pretty sure. His merch is available at Target and Walmart and he has branded video games too.
Thanks!
That kid is going to be so extremely traumatized and maladapted by the time he's even 12. I can't even begin to comprehend the psychological effects that this level of exploitation at such a young age would bring. It does seem like all harmless family friendly fun, but I doubt the scene when the camera isn't rolling is very healthy. This kid is getting used by a prop by his caretakers to essentially print money.
I just hope that he might at least see a small portion of what he's earned so that he can recover well and not be to impacted by this further down in his future.
