I mean, its credible evidence but you can choose to ignore it and clamor the "internet/youtube is real life" narrative all you want. These kids are dying (but fake I suppose) but hey just because it doesn't fit your mold of what is real and not real I guess ignore it and make fun. Feel free to use your superior internet knowledge to look it up yourself.
Keep watching the the CNN/Fox/MSNBC news outlets because those are a lot better

I knew nothing about this myself until someone linked me this earlier today, I had no idea how big the gang violence in Toronto actually was.
Low income definitely is the highlighted issue here, these kids grow up in poverty from day 1 and gang violence is all they know.
