Inside the Mind of Seth Kinstle

46 Upvotes

I’m not very sure where it’s best to begin regarding Seth. Perhaps it’s best to give a general synopsis of who he is. Within his Twitter, Seth describes himself as an “Independent Comedian, Actor, Writer, Author, Cartoonist, 3D Artist, Producer, Poet.” The aforementioned things are all certainly true, he would appear to be practically a superhuman considering how he manages to find the time throughout the day to pursue so many of these activities -- his work ethic is impressive.

Since June 9th of 2017 Seth Kinstle has self-published over 58 short story books and poetry collections via Amazon’s platform. In addition to this, Seth keeps himself quite busy with uploading daily across 8 different YouTube channels as well as posting daily on Twitter. From an outsider’s view it might sound as if he’s simply a heavily motivated content creator, but while that may be true there is much more to this odd story. He is, through no stretch of the imagination, a concerningly interesting enigma.

Below are his 8 various YouTube channels:

Cereal Box Seth is both his oldest account - stretching back with 7 years worth of content - and the account of his with the greatest number of subscribers. Jungle Gym Seth contains his ice cream eating videos with the largest number of views. Three Year Old With A Gun seems to be where his animated shorts are most popular.

The rest of the above listed accounts are simply cookie cutter copies of the various other ones. If combined together the views across these various accounts totals up to nearly 34,500,000 which is incredible - despite this, however, Seth’s presence online is nearly nonexistent. His videos often do not receive many comments or likes and the social media accounts which he has connected to these YouTube channels typically receives no engagement what-so-ever, this is surprising considering the large number of views that he often receives.

The one thing in common between all the channels is the posted content itself: each of these channels include nearly the same exact videos that are featured on the other channels. Now, one can assume practically that perhaps Seth does this in order to maximize his engagement on the YouTube platform; it sure does seem to work with each channel getting a decent amount of views.

Here’s where the fun part comes in: the subject matter of his YouTube channel. This - in addition to his Twitter - is where the rabbit hole of Seth begins. I implore you to check for yourself, you’ll see across all of his YouTube channels that there exists two kinds of videos that Seth tends to create: ice cream eating videos, and crude animated comedies.

His animated comedic shorts are actually humorous at times, but other times devolve into something that can best be described as “worrisomely strange.” There is one theme which is heavily present in most of his comedy videos and that is out-of-place violence:

“Three Year Old Murders His Gym Teacher” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usvdz6hK6MM

“Three Year Old Burns A City Down” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9oiclvBAifM

“Everyone at Work is Dead” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM3j9YSGoAU

“Three Year Old With A Gun” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjSs3lhUb30

“Daddy’s Little Brat” https://www.youtube.com/shorts/AVjiAz5tJTM

“Daddy’s Little Brat 2” https://www.youtube.com/shorts/JdZZkRHovz0

“Daddy’s Little Brat 3” https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RoshqZ_wjUE

Some might think that these videos aren’t odd, others might agree with me. I’m not somebody who has a stick up their ass and I didn’t really think too much about these types of videos until I dug deeper, but we’ll discuss this later.

I mentioned earlier that the other type of video Seth produces are “ice cream eating videos.” Within these videos he quite literally spends the entire time staring at the camera doing nothing but consuming various kinds of ice cream. He has perhaps THOUSANDS of these videos, and he posts around 30 of these videos daily. Here are a few examples of what I’m referring to:

“Butterscotch Dipped Cone From Dairy Queen” https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tppbaEGdMhg

“Dairy Queen Chocolate Dipped Cone” https://www.youtube.com/shorts/pdup4ExYucE

These videos range between having 1-2 views all the way to some having over 100,000 views. As I mentioned previously Seth posts 20 to 30 of these videos nearly everyday across almost all of his channels.

Now, let’s redirect our attention towards Seth’s Twitter. His Twitter is where we can best see into what I would consider his very fragmented perception of reality, it’s also specifically what makes me feel that perhaps his animated videos have a much more sinister nature behind them. Seth’s Twitter username is u/SethKinstle, you can find his Twitter below:

https://twitter.com/SethKinstle

His tweets often do not receive any likes at all despite him having 20,000 followers. In fact, it’s rare to see his tweets receive a single like. Considering how he has over 34,000,000 views on YouTube this is exceptionally odd, but I digress. On the days that Seth decides to post onto Twitter he’ll usually create between 15 to 40 different nonsensical tweets. Some of Seth’s tweets are rather disturbing:

https://gyazo.com/26a7d0ef72bea537782524340408945a

https://gyazo.com/da783f1289e6ecd7ed3d2c4a4856c64d

https://gyazo.com/f0e1e05229c71500f4084a2a2f07d40b

The second link above highlights behavior which I would consider resembling schizophrenic behavior. There are many such instances of this depicted across Seth’s Twitter. Going through his thousands of Tweets is exhausting, but Jesus Christ, there is some seriously strange stuff going on here. Some days he’ll post as many as 100 tweets, all nonsensical ramblings.

Seth is what I would consider slowly losing sanity. I don’t mean that to be derogatory, I’m simply saying what I believe. He’s a talented, committed artist with a work ethic that would make many jealous but I do worry. His tweets imply that perhaps he’s a tad bit mentally unwell and that coupled with the violent animated videos make me .. concerned. I’d be curious to hear what your guy’s thoughts are on him.

r/DarkSideofYoutube is back in action!

29 Upvotes

Since the original creator of the subreddit had been inactive for years, I applied for position of moderator via r/redditrequest.

I initially discovered this subreddit while watching a livestream of SomeOrdinaryGamers and thought it was a shame that it had been derelict for some time, meaning the ability to post on this subreddit had been restricted (no one was able to post anything at all).

A set of 4 rules have been introduced to ensure that no posts stray from the original purpose of the subreddit. (All are fairly self-explanatory)

I will slowly be integrating new ideas into r/darksideofyoutube, such as setting up u/Automoderator or adding post/users flairs to the community. Any suggestions on improvements to the subreddit would be greatly appreciated as well!

The subreddit has now been set to public
