    I think the 3 characters represent the 3 general age groups that these shows target. Yellow Guy represents toddlers/very young children, the Bird represents slightly older child, and Red Guy represents children who are old enough to think for themselves and form their own opinions.
    I also think the relationship between Yellow Guy and Roy represents how child actors are often abused by the industry due to basically being sold out by their parents.

    I think a very (obvious but strangely overlooked) important message was missed about the title. Abused children don't want to be hugged while scared. The title is giving away the premise right from the start.
    Whether it is in reference of yellow guy being abused by his father, of him being abused by the animate objects, or the broader message of people's intellectual properties being abused by the creators or buyers for the sake of profit is up to interpretation. Personally I think it's all.

    • @memorylooser
      @memorylooser 4 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      Thats very similar to my theory! Though its just straight up ab//se, I think Matpat proved that Yellow Guy was afraid of horses, horses are in every episode [from what I remember] and a few other things. Everything from episode one to about the beginning of five [not the Red Guy POV moments]. I think that Yellow Guy is ab//sed by his father, both mentally and physically. Red Guy is like a therapist or older friend, trying his hardest to protect and save Yellow Guy. And Duck is an imaginary friend, the only one who is sort of able to comfort him. On top of Yellow's ab//se, I believe he is disabled. Maybe autistic or something like that. Like when he seen the butterfly/bee/fly. He freaks out because it got squished by duck. That's my theory but its not really completed since most of episode six and part of five aren't used due to the pov being Red Guy

    Goddamn I know I’m very late but the way his set devolved around him is a very creative and fascinating addition to the video it adds more depth to the whole thing and I hope Night Mind is very proud of that.
    The interruptions add a way to kind of see into the creators mind, a way of seeing (even if it’s exaggerated) insecurities or negative comments and how they can affect someone over time.
    The aggressive ways he tells the mic to shut up and the entire way he goes through the explanations showing how he feels about the mics interruptions is just fascinating to me.

      Yeah. As a Christian aswell, I agree with this. It's important to show why we are Christian and what we believe but not force it upon people. If we do, we aren't sharing Good News, but rather removing one's free will (which is not very good) Some problems I've noticed is when myth outshines truth, extremests making their own rules (thus technically making a new religion) another thing I noted is that the "religion" seems to be more cult-like, due to the robes, removing one's old life, and idolatry (which is the worship of an object, rather than God) I'm not going to beat around the bush. From what I've seen in scripture and teaching about homosexuality is that the problem doesn't like with loving another of the same gender, rather the reasoning (which is usually lust, aka adultery) if anyone has anything to add please comment

      This. Even the Bible says (directly from the mouth if Jesus Himself) “And when you pray do not be like the hypocrites who preach in on street corners and in temples. Amen I say to you when you pray go to the innermost room of your house and pray in secret and my father, who sees in secret, will reward you.”
      TLDR: Don’t needlessly/aggressively preach to people.

    They _were_ creative, the whole time, all along. I would like to think that that's completely intentional. That the notepad, being angered the child's natural creativity, decided to get rid of that creativity by cutting the child off from the source. Themselves.

The two of them where real teachers that actually have real and helpfull things to show and know exactly what they are duing. The two of them get interrupted by the old computer, bein overshadowed to prevent them from doing what they are supposed to do. They are good and actually helpfull teachers that truly have something to show and is not stupid or wrong. Actual helpfull good teachers, getting ignored or replaced by the show.

And whenever the microphone called Night Mind cat puppet “a dumb cat who likes to shout”, he contradicts himself as he said earlier that the cat sounded monotone. Just like the teachers in DHMIS.

    The theory is dope! I always saw it as the story is told from Red Guys perspective, and that he was actually a child actor and the yellow and duck guy were actors too and they suffered through trauma (cuz thats what happens to child actors in hollywood). The red guy leaving the set is kinda a symbol of him trying to change and leaving his life as an actor for good and working a boring office job. His trauma resurfaces in dreams, and sometimes trauma victims develop weird, quirky personalities and express their issues through comedy. The crowd boos him and again, he visualized that Roy dude in the corner, and suddenly goes back to that weird room with the TV, and he's seeing all his experiences with the other two kids in front of him, and he tries to desperately hold on and change things in the TV (cuz thats what abused people do, they try to change what they remember about the torment) and the Roy dude reaches out as a symbol of "letting go" of the trauma hence pulling the plug.

    As I listened to this explanation, I grew a theory. What if the three main characters are used to represent the how the levels of maturity react to this kind of stuff. Yellow guy represents naivety (like a young child), he doesn't know much better, so for most of the series, he just sits and takes it since he can't do much else. He is at the will of his manipulators, until later in the series where he grows and tries to fight off what they're teaching him, and even then he can't do much *to* fight them.
    Red guy represents maturity (like an adult, or in this case, maybe a teen), he knows that all of this is bullshit and he takes the most of it before he nopes the fuck out and comes back to try and save the impressionable minds. When trying to make his own creativity fails, he shuts down the show.
    Duck represents somewhere in the middle (adolescence), he knows most things, but is still impressionable, so even though he still takes this "knowledge" like Yellow guy, he still knows that some of the stuff they say doesn't make sense.
    This comment was probably really confusing and hard to follow, so tl;dr: Yellow symbolizes a child's mind, Red guy symbolizes a mature mind, and Duck symbolizes the in-between.

      Both means teenager
      Personally i think duck is a elderly. Hes senile and so far out of the loop that media can manipulate him again ( think how those knock off video companys prey on like the elderly who dont know better and get the kids the wrong game or movie buy junk that doesnt work because they confuse bootlegs for reality
      Or those scam artists who have scammed the elderly for millions
      Children and oldfolks are both pretty vunerable in alot of ways and dont know better either cause they havent leatned or there minds going or they are so far out if the loop
