Caba Baba Rave - take your baby to watch nearly naked men in fetish gear

Journalist Dominique Samuels has posted video of one of their events: https://twitter.com/dominiquetaegon/status/1630948003962912768?s=61&t=gd6tu0Iz6JpyKXGLWMLGjg

Which features men gyrating and hanging from the ceiling surrounded by a crowd of clueless women and their babies.

I would say it's NSFW but it's apparently safe for babies so have a watch.

Here's a reddux article:

Since the video went viral, the company has taken down its website and Facebook and made their Instagram private. I wonder why? Confused

The images are fake. Performance shots spliced with audience shots.

They're not even particularly convincing fakes.

Once you've accepted they're fake, ask yourself why they've been made and distributed. And why you were so willing to believe they are real

They aren't fake. The video is on twitter. Go and have a look

Yes, the video is fake.

Lol no it's not 😂😂

JustStopOilyPoshKids · 02/03/2023 18:37

We're now arguing with this..

And just repeating that it is 'fake' is not convincing anyone.

It's convincing me that that poster is desperately trying a little bit of damage limitation.

Helleofabore · 02/03/2023 18:44

I would also recommend doing an image search with the company's name. There is cached image of that same picture used in the Vault advertisement under a google image search as being cached under that company's URL.

Same performer.

I suspect you have either believed someone who was trying to shut the discussion down, or you, personally, wish to believe that these are fake videos.

But unless the company now comes out with that statement, I think that argument is not convincing at all.

Helleofabore · 02/03/2023 18:46

So, tell us again how that video was faked Meaningofthesea. And when.

Or are you going to say it is NOT a fake, just that the performers were stripped of their clothes using some clever fakery. But that the performers were real and doing those same acts, just with more clothes on?

Seasonofthewitch83 · 02/03/2023 16:48

But this act would not be booked for children over 1. The screengrabs are for the events aimed at parents with babies, FOR the parents.

If you look at their other content, the shows for older children are different - no nudity etc as that is not appropriate.

What I don't get, if that is the case, is why a new mother would want to spend her time watching two men gyrate in leather thongs and stilletoes?

Can you give a bit of insight into what the attraction might be? I genuinely cannot see the appeal. For me it can only be performative virtue signalling.

Faceplant66 · 02/03/2023 18:48

I hope someone sends this onto the Scummy Mummies - still think we are fascists now?!

Well, using the 'critical thinking' that Meaningofthesea has told us to use... I would suggest that if the video was fake (it has been around for nearly a day by the looks) that the company has had plenty of time to issue a statement to that effect. AND that if it was fake, the company would have left the REAL images up to prove that it was all a fake.

Faceplant66 · 02/03/2023 18:49

And I hope the nationals pick this up and send this to the Met. It’s grooming. And someone needs fcking prosecuting.

Faceplant66 · 02/03/2023 18:54

And those redic parents “aren’t we so inclusive and liberal”. No you are exposing your babies and toddlers to bondage content. You are crap parents and need to wake up.

RufustheSpeculatingreindeer · 02/03/2023 18:54

Datun · 02/03/2023 18:20

That's the first time I've watched the video. Not only is it horrendously inappropriate, they are really fucking crap. I've never seen such cackhanded nonsense in all my life.

It makes me think it's even more dodgy now.

Ive had to watch it as well

and I completely blame meaningofthesea for that 😒

GrabbyGabby · 02/03/2023 18:54

This thread is mental. The 10 second 1 clip of the barely clad man trussed up in BDSM gear swinging from the ceiling

A) only meant for and a ok for babies
B) not sexual (no, nothing sexual at all, no sireeee Bob)
C) FAKE NEWS

The cognitive dissonance seems to be taking its toal on the critical thinking side of things.

Helleofabore · 02/03/2023 18:55

Meaningofthesea · 02/03/2023 18:17

I will patiently await your apology.

So, if the company doesn't issue a statement stating they are fakes within the next 24 hours, you will come back and apologise to posters then?

NotHavingIt · 02/03/2023 18:55

CryptoFascistMadameCholet · 02/03/2023 17:06

The children in these pictures aren’t oblivious newborns.

Baby cinema is designed for the babies to sleep through, either in their prams or in slings or in their mam’s laps. The films play more quietly than usual to facilitate this, and the low, safety exit lights are kept on so mums can see just enough to feed babies to sleep while mum watches the film

These babies are not sleeping in prams, or slings. They are sat up in the front row facing the performers.

It’s completely disingenuous to compare this to a mother and baby movie showing.

The pubs tagged in the images all need to be investigated by their licensing authority.

I'm Imagining that the young children in the audience might take these performers to be actual women...... My question is What is this meant to teach, or impress upon, the children about what it means to be a woman?

RufustheSpeculatingreindeer · 02/03/2023 18:56

I would like actual evidence that the video is fake or I’m going to have to assume that poster is lying

Helleofabore · 02/03/2023 18:57

I stashed some research somewhere that was about babies and how babies recognised the sex of a human from their face.

I imagine that babies use all the same cues that we know about such as proportions of the face. I will see if I can find it anywhere.

Honestly. No rehearsal, no routine, just squeaking your pvc clad way through a bit of a swing.

Bloody farcical.

And just screams out 'not our main purpose'.

Clymene · 02/03/2023 19:01

I'm sorry you had to watch it. I suppose we should thank our lucky stars there's no sound on the video.

Oh dear....adult and entertainment and baby entertainment should be kept separate.Very wierd and inappropriate!
Leave baby with partner/family/babysitter and go see this sort of thing with other adults only in the evening instead fgs...

Yes, they probably would. I bet they would think this was marvellous and “if you don’t like it, don’t go!” 🙄

Thank you

but now datun has put ‘squeaking’ in my head like a weird earworm 😩

i blame meaning for that as well 😒

ArabellaScott · 02/03/2023 19:09

Is the squeaking fake news?
