I don't follow youtubers because i think people should make money on work instead of bullshit and games. And i don't like to make people rich on shit. People don't know the power they have. When you follow someone and watch someone's video, you're giving them attention. And this attention nets them money. So DON'T DO IT!!

And yes, they probably manipulate the videos too, pay someone to play through the video thousands of times to get them going and such. It's all bullshit and hoax. And people are falling for it.

Society goes around because people go to work and get a real job that society needs, and get a normal wage for it. People getting paid to play games is undermining the legitimacy of that practice. You're giving someone a free ride in life and not valuing the value of a dollar.

It's my opinion that people that make other people rich on bullshit, haven't really worked for their money or struggled financially in their lives... so they don't know the value of money. It's all just a game for them.

So you're telling me art should be canceled, because it's not providing to society? Actors, Artists, book-writers, musicians?
They all get payed for a performance. A Youtuber is basically an actor. If he makes content I enjoy he is providing to society for letting me watch something I'm interested in.

Art is free. Everything that involves art, sports, athletics, anything of that nature, is free and should be free. There are many that does art that is just as good or better than art that is worth millions.

You watch football on tv, people fake injuries to affect the judge. Everything that involves big money becomes corrupted and fake. I would rather watch children's sports, it's much more genuine and it's about the true nature of sports: Keeping fit and having fun. Not sitting in your couch with beer and chips and becoming overweight (not a mockery, just objective facts).

Money should come from sacrificing, or at least doing something that the society needs. Masoner, busdriver, healthcare worker, dentist, whatever you can think of. They require discipline and a lot of practice, and THAT is what should warrant money. Not sitting in front of a computer playing games and talking to a microphone. It also involves no personal risk. Doing a work practice involves personal risk, because you usually are involved with other people's safety. If a busdriver makes a mistake, it can cost him and dozens of other people their lives. Yet they get paid probably much less than what someone is sitting in front of a pc screen chit-chatting about stupid games make during a year.

That is the core of the problem. It's the risk that comes with the work, and the long-term involvement of a craft, that should determine the wages. Not popularity and "trend-factor" or whatever you call it. It's what is to me the equivalent of Bullshit. And i will never stop fighting against that because i empathize too much with those that actually do have real jobs. They have to fight this kind of stigmatization with their children every day, trying to show their children the meaning of keeping a real job, while this bullshit is brainwashing their children to play games instead of developing skills.

Yeah, that too. I do agree though that people should at least try to be a bit factual or logical with the criticism, but it should be possible to voice an opinion without being accused of jealousy and such.
