📱 The Rise of Dumbness: Why People Will Do Anything for Views in Reels & YouTube

EduInvesting | 15 May 2025

We live in a time where pushing a coconut into your head or dancing on a running train isn’t a mental illness — it’s a content strategy.

Welcome to 2025, where intelligence is optional, but virality is compulsory. You don’t need a degree to be famous. You just need a ring light, a weird laugh, and zero shame.

Let’s dive into the economics of idiocy — a masterclass in monetizing madness.


🎬 Chapter 1: Content Creation or Darwin Test?

Once upon a time, “content creator” meant filmmaker, poet, or vlogger.
Today? It means:

  • Screaming at strangers for no reason
  • Licking batteries to “test voltage”
  • Crying dramatically because your goldfish unfollowed you

The dumber, louder, and weirder — the more likely you’ll end up on someone’s Explore page with a “🔥Must watch before sleeping” comment.


🧠 Chapter 2: Why Dumb = Views

It’s not an accident. It’s algorithm science.

Guess who wins? Exactly. Because social media doesn’t reward knowledge.
It rewards attention — any kind.


🤳 Chapter 3: Who’s Watching This?

Let’s meet the audience:

  • 🧒 12-year-olds who think everything is “sigma”
  • 🧓 Aunties who forward reels with “Nice beta”
  • 🧠 Adults with zero attention span and five reels open at once
  • 💼 Managers at work saying “just one reel” during lunch break (still watching at 3 PM)

Remember: the bar is so low, you can dance over it
