People only like Kiyomi and Micah because they're conventionally attractive
Okay this is kind of a tangent but I was giving this some thought. The ONLY reason people let this whole family-vlogger stuff slide despite the unsafe conditions for their baby early on (van-living), incest, usage of profanity in conversations with and near their children, etc. is soley because they're conventionally attractive.
So hear me out
Let's say that this situation was between a couple of a marginalized group, who happened to not be conventionally attractive: There would be so much backlash. There would be CPS calls left and right, and the parents would be in jail. People find Kiyomi and Micah charismatic and funny, as they cater to a more Gen-Z audience, and that's why they receive so much support despite not being good parents(in my opinion). Now, I understand that they're making a better life for themselves and their family, but any other couple wouldn't be given a chance and would be in a VERY different circumstance.
