I don't get it either. I see millions of followers but their streams don't give off a vibe of someone with charisma worthy of that type of obsession.
Most of them come off of as really obnoxious loud people ranting into a mic. Well...maybe it does make sense seeing the type of people society has rallied around to hold positions of power.
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.
At some point, Youtube customers only watch the videos to get some kind of personal relationship with the YouTuber.
