The nursery rhyme stuff is one of the more recent internet phenomenons, especially the finger family versions. See all those millions of views, but few comments, and even fewer intelligible comments that you can make out and read?

These videos are being automatically generated and watched so that whoever owns the videos can make a ton of money off of ad clicks and views.

That doesn't mean people don't watch it, it means majority of views are structurally made by artificial intelligence. Rows of computers set up to watch it, refresh, then go to the next one. All for that sweet,sweet, advertisement and high viewcount purchased by view bots revenue.

tl;dr ad fraud endgame.
