Just watched this video from h3h3 where Ethan shares that he is seeing a current trend on youtube with the "Toy" genre increasing in popularity. I know that trends do happen naturally, however the fact that this specific genre has exploded on youtube within the last month or so seems very unnatural. I feel that there are people behind this that are paying highly viewed youtubers large sums of money to upload videos following this theme in order to obfuscate their original creepy videos in order for them to blend into the current "trend".
