If I had to explain the internet to a layman, I will tell him that internet is like a garage sale. Sometimes you will be able to find really useful stuff, but sometimes all you’re going to get is old crap. Things available here are not in trend for long, but if you are skilled enough, then you might be able to put a spin around the most trivial things and use it to your benefit.
Well, that’s what people do here, don’t they?
So in this cyber, world there exists a website called Fiverr. It is a market place for manpower. You can post your requirement, browse through services and tasks available and pick the assignments that you want to do. In a market place like India, where the fight for skilled manpower never ceases, there are myriad of opportunities available. So taking benefit of these opportunities one user named QUAZIHAQUE, posted a message saying that he will make funny videos for you for birthdays, anniversaries and other such occasions for just $5.
He would gather a bunch of kids, and like a common village classroom that we have seen, he will make them read out messages submitted by the users. Great idea, isn’t it? What’s wrong in that you ask?
Enter PenorCut, whose name really amuses me. They thought of taking the advantage of the situation and put a spin around it. The idea was simple: if the kids are going to say anything at all, why don’t we make them say things that we can get in trouble for. And here began the story of making the small kids say politically incorrect things.

By the looks of the video, it is pretty clear that these kids, least interested in what is going on around them, have no idea what any of it means. The first video featuring ‘OP is a phaggot’ got quite a lot of views. And then the series began.
Now the kids will dance for you for a special package. They can’t pronounce these slangs properly, they are nonchalant about what it means, but for just $5, they will do anything for you. Why? Because fuck child labour.

The advertisement of this vendor on Fiverr is appalling in many ways. I really don’t care about the bad camera quality or the cheap ways that he uses to write the message because hey, he is doing an effort at least. But young boys running on a broken building and climbing bamboo trees to advertise this stupid service makes me angry over the way these kids are being exploited.
Had these efforts been made to teach them, I am sure they would actually do well in life. But please tell me what do the kids learn by saying this:
(and what pleasure do people get from watching this)

The garage sale will still be on guys. Please make sure you get good stuff.
