Reddit users were quick to react, describing the situation as disturbing in retrospect.
“Well, there’s your problem right there,” one user commented, while another noted, “I guess going to Josh for advice didn’t work out well for him.”
Similar reactions followed, with one person bluntly remarking, “Well, that didn’t age well…”
This reemerged footage has also sparked renewed criticism of the Duggar family’s upbringing and belief system.
“You can see the deterioration this cult caused in these kids,” a commenter expressed, with another stating, “These high-demand cults destroy innocence and childhood.”
“This family is honestly so cringe,” a user wrote, while another observed, “They were so weird and sheltered that the teenage boys were always saying ‘neat,’ like it was 1952.”
Some comments were more severe, with one individual claiming, “Joseph’s eyes are disturbed. His gaze is deeply troubling. It’s like a fixed, unfeeling stare.”
