I know it is about some perverts trying to brainwash kids with youtube cartoons, but every article or FB post people insert that that big eyes creepy figure keeps giving me goosebump, so I couldn't read the full story what's that about.

Is it a hoax or what? My daughter likes to watch youtube on TV, so it brings my concern.

IF someone posts that creepy photo here, mod please close the thread. Thanks.

I dont know how kids can watch youtube nonstop everyday. I cant even find things to watch for more than 3 hrs a week.

Most of it is just junk-food for the mind, and makes them ADD. There is little educational value in the crap that my nephew watches. It keeps him occupied, but then he's wild when he's not watching tv.

Is it wrong that I think its a good thing the dumb asses in the human race are wiping themselves out with these stupid challenges? I dont know about you guys, but I would never eat a tide pod just because someone challenged me to or "oooh the colors are so pretty".

It's a hoax. I feel like this is a social experiment that is going to be a feature some time in the future.

Berz out.

You guys know that it is all a stupid hoax right? Some news story picked up on a troll posting and it went viral via news media.

That face, "momo" is actually part of a japanese art installation from like the early 2000's.

edit: Just realized Berz beat me to it.

I heard about this about a year or two ago. Some girl in Argentina being a victim.

Don't know why it's trending again recently.

Wait... Hold up..

So while the Blue Whale game got kids to actually suicide...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Whale_Challenge

MOMO is just about a game that tells kids to suicide, but turns out to be a hoax that fooled parents into believing their kids were in danger??

:fulloffuck: ?

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/momo-creator-says-creature-dead-14082197

The creator of that sculpture, out of guilt, had to tell kids the creature is dead to reassure them.
