6. FRANCIS OF THE FILTH (OUT NOW)

It’s a video about a skit of a character named Francis. It takes place in an upside down town where weird stuff happens.

I believe other people should give this video a chance because it gives insight to the bizarre comedic style of a famous Youtuber called TVFilthyFrank. His unique humor is offputting and strange to many people, but from 2013 to mid 2024 he has amassed nearly 8 MILLION subscribers. In addition to becoming a stable of meme and internet culture, Frank is an example that there are countless ways to make art that reaches far more people than many would expect. This video (which had 16 million views in six years) and his channel at large shows young people the power of daring to be unique.

5. The Duck Song

This video can give a good insight on how fun the early days of Youtube were and how wholesome the content was.

The reason why I thought the duck song was such a great pick for a spot in my list is because it needs to be heard by people who have never heard something like that and give some exposure to the golden years of Youtube 

4.10 Dark Fairy Tales Origins

This video shows how some of the most light-hearted stories of fairy tales have obscure origins.

Kids in middle school should know the very origins of where fairy tales came from because there are more mature lessons in the original stories that kids can appreciate as they get older. This is my #4 choice because it could put more perspective in the stories they are read by parents or their guardians 

3.I Listened to EVERY *BEYONCÉ* Album...

This video is about a Taylor Swift fan's love for Beyonce, and how her music and albums are adored by many.  There are many memories from songs like “Ego” or “Upgrade U.” These songs evoke emotion and take you back to a much simpler and greater time in life.

I picked this video because I needed to spice up my list and it was getting too boring talking about important topics. I believe this video can bring more folks to appreciate Beyonce’s music and how the video goes along from her older work as she was in a group to the time. She went solo with the debut album Dangerously in Love. This is my number 3 choice because It’s insightful and explains her discography, which has made a major impact on pop culture. 

2. Armed in 1948

This to me is an educational video about firearms in the WWII era and citizens and former servicemen had access to these types of weaponry.  At the end of WWII, a lot of Allied and Axis weapons were on the market, such as the Mauser Kar 98, the Thompson SMG, the M1 Carbine Rifle, the Webley Foster Auto Revolver,  PPSH- 41, and the MK 1 STG 44.  These WWII weapons are cherished by many during their service in the deployment in combat on both fronts.  

I love how smooth and personable the armaments of WWII are and many people do agree that this video is helpful in learning about that time in the way many people felt about these pieces of firearms being placed on the market.  

1.Kant & Categorical Imperatives: Crash Course Philosophy #35

Kant’s perspective on a human universal moral code about how different people behave in a logical sense.  Also, human beings' nature hasn’t changed much since he wrote about human nature in the way the mind sorts through actions and reactions.  In an evolutionary conversation Kant argued against the church and the idea of hedonism harkening back to free will, and the idea that we as humans have a choice individually to do good and bad.  

I think it is best for people to know themselves and to understand that we all have human autonomy not just to be individualistic but to act in such a way that is good for both yourself and others around you.  Kant’s philosophy emphasized a moral standing of non-religious but human actions meaning that not acting according to Christianity but by the human mind and heart. This is my number one video for everyone to watch because philosophy applies to everyone.
