I don’t know which is sadder, the fact that the people making those videos are who had put the animals in this situation when staging them or that they’re profiting off of that because of gullible people falling for their false virtue.
Same goes for those “helping the homeless” videos. Like why are you filming the entire set up, deed, and after effect. Maybe you snap a photo afterward but no sane person would film a homeless person struggling and continue filming yourself walk up to said person
I feel bad now for the people who actually are rescuing animals.

It’s the people that downvote you and tell you to shut up when you point this out on suspicious videos that are the worst.
The animal abusers aren’t the problem. They only exist because the audience. It’s peoples lack of education, scepticism, and care.
People can do anything for money and fame.
Animal rescue videos are so common that youtube should ban them algorithmically as content type even if there is false positive.

There are some genuine ones like Hope for Paws and The Dodo.
Commenting to bump this up. It hurts me so much to see these poor animals getting abused for clicks and YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, doing FUCK ALL.
Been saying this for like a decade
YouTube being it’s own country governing itself with absurdly arbitrary execution of rules is the problem.
We need Musk to buy YouTube:))))
It’s simple, those who are really interested in *only* helping out animals won’t be recording themselves doing it.
PaymoneyWubby did [a video on this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mvVQCl8fIg) 3 years ago that’s worth checking out as well.
