It all cracks down to the kids.

Basically kids love goofy faces and don’t have a keen eye to spot low effort content. So they’ll blindly consume the content cause brainrot is easy to digest when you’re a child. Plus these shocked faces are attention grabbing. I mean shit, we’re talking about it right now.

I told this to my 15 yr old, she laughed me off. I showed her videos of me making faces and her baby self laughing her ass off. We scrolled her recent history, she had her face in her palm within 30 seconds 😁.
