      Right there with you and cannot help but feel for parents (and their kids) that have to navigate this hellscape.

        I see millions of followers but their streams don’t give off a vibe of someone with charisma worthy of that type of obsession.

        At some point, Youtube customers only watch the videos to get some kind of personal relationship with the YouTuber.

        Lock Picking Lawyer explains why he is anonymous, and just how weird/dangerous youtube fans can get.

        I prefer watching YouTube videos where no one talks, they just do, building things, working on cars, etc. These kids screaming into a mic “LETS GOOOOO!!” about every little thing and pranking and all that shit is just obnoxious.

        I also enjoy those Police Activity videos too, so I suppose I just don’t follow the typical “influencer” hype either. Other than that, YouTube is great for various content.

    He’ll be making that big interest money from all of that credit debt, but for a younger crowd.
