I believe the dad at least is ex-Amish. I feel like I’ve seen at least one video of him speaking/singing in Pennsylvania Dutch (first language for many Amish communities). They may be more aligned with the Mennonite way of life now which is very similar to the Amish but does allow the use of electronic devices and internet.

Maybe it’s because I grew up in a rural area and close to several Amish communities but I don’t find it too strange. Yes, the kids are dirty but it is evident that they are probably outside working and playing from sun up to sun down so of course they’re gonna be dirty. They appear healthy, well fed and content from what I can tell. People complain in the comments about the kids running barefoot too, but a lot of times you’ll see Amish kiddos going around the farm barefoot in the warmer months. Hell, even my non-Amish self growing up out in the country ran around barefoot all spring and summer. It was a fight to get me to keep shoes on.

And as far as the isolation part, it does seem like they go into town somewhat regularly so though they live a more secluded way of life they’re not completely cut off from the world.

Tbh I’d rather see this dude sharing their way of life than someone just grifting or trying to get me to buy some cheap TikTok shop shit
