[First Listen] REACTION! 🎧 Boomer Bait
In the never-not-flushing toilet that is the internet, the laziest fad to try to clog the drain are "First Listen Reaction" channels. These Zoomer content goblins stretch Fair Use to its absolute limits by pretending to have never heard the biggest songs of all time, and then "reacting" to them on camera by bobbing their heads and saying, "Wow." It seems fairly harmless until you realize that a young black kid pretending to like some classic rock song is the perfect bait for grifting old white boomers into watching thousands of terrible Youtube ads. Wow! A black kid likes Phil Collins\' "In The Air Toinght" too? Maybe I AM cool. There is no need to even bother saying "NO COPYRIGHTS INTENDED" on these videos because Youtube actually encourages them! Meanwhile, I\'m battling over the copyright of my own damn theme song. PLUS: an Instagram model/influencer talks about the dangers of Fair Use, and MCL771 debuts his hit new rap song "I Am Not A P*dophile." #DONTREACT'
