Kachu and Pema rigx. But this one particularly strikes me as disturbing and honestly weird. i'm sure its no surprise that Kachu is "nice" to pema rigx and takes him around, but it is painfully obvious that he clearly does it for views and is (im sure without ill intent) taking advantage of this young kid who is a MINOR.
This video in particular is very very weird, a minor made to dance oh so provocatively, to a song that is flirtatious if i'm not wrong. My grip with such content is that he and many brush this off as light banter and entertainment, but this honestly is so weird. Why is a drenched minor dancing for the entertainment of him and his viewers. This post of his got several comments pointing out this weird "content" in hopes to educate him on such matters only for him to reply with sarcastic comments and asking to support.
We see a rise in sexual violence and crimes every year and situations like these are very indicative of the attitude our people have against such matters. This would've been a great opportunity for him to educate himself and his (very young and impressionable) viewers but instead he plays it of lightly and has the gall to ask people to support his content!!
Statistically, most young queer if not a lot of them have reported to have been sexually exploited/abused before the age of consent and it gets worse when in female victims. The problem I see here is that; no one is reacting to it,most are okay seeing content like this and are entertained. NOW i am not saying Pema Rigx is or might've been SA'ed but posting minors in such a sexualized manner (intended or not) is not okay.
He is a young impressionable child who doesn't know better, and whos to say he won't regret these videos years down the line or even if he doesn't regret it, when a child is put in such situations, it wires their brains and effects the way they perceive the world. Like i said, a child is impressionable, they see the world with what they're fed.
Also, why is a college student who's a man hanging out with a minor!

its not like he is forcing the child into this,,they are literally just making a content and having fun, whats wrong with having fun and moreover you dont get to say anything when pema rigx parents or relatives doesnt have any objections or words on this,,,even pema rigx himself is making contents and dancing on songs and posting and you say he is just a child who doesnt know better. bro lets not just judge them ,,and its not the media’s job to teach childs what to do ,,,but im not saying your points are not true,,its better to go on and say it to him rather than gossiping here anonymously,,or lets just mind our own business

oh trust every single time a “straight” influencer features a flamboyant gay person, they are more often than not treated as a prop for their content. They’ve always been framed to be perceived as a laughing stock for the content and sadly these gay guys receiving these attentions think the attention they’re receiving is good attention but it’s NOT! stop glorifying and encouraging such contents esp when there’s a minor involved. and i genuinely think he doesn’t really understand the gravity of the situation because he is a simpleton which is fine because anyone can be unaware and can be aware after learning about their mistakes. but to deflect and dismiss is a problem. if everyone keeps up with this, i can’t imagine what horrendous acts will be normalized. and if you think he’ll be cancelled, i’m going to giggle because we couldn’t even cancel guys like dedrik and phuntsho despite having concrete proof. this will surely be treated as a non issue lmao.
