Yes, white culture. Black people don't find that kind of stuff funny or cute. Middle Easterners don't. Most Europeans don't. Africans don't. South Americans don't. Asians don't. Some out-of-touch, white Americans do. That's the target audience, I suppose. It's snarky and hollow.

it's not necessarily the target audience, but it's who's making these videos generally — mainstream american culture has always had a major yuppie component as a primary feature, google has embodied this for quite some time

All white people aren't upper middle class coastal people. There are also additionally upper middle class coastal people that are black and middle eastern and like upbeat tech videos. Begone with your racism.

Woke people always come to that conclusion.
