I remember in the infancy of gamergate I had my heart broken pretty bad by like this formally sex positive YouTuber who did videos about safe sex and talking openly with teenagers about sexuality and sex ed, and finding out that she had apparently just completely turned hard right and changed all of her views to be completely hardcore right wing gamergate nonsense, going ultra Christian and disavowing her previous views
Even worse it apparently started when she dated a YouTuber guy who had these views. Which was a massive red flag and concern. It was the most horrific and sad right turn I’d ever seen and shook me hard enough that I’ve kind of always been prepared for YouTubers and such to disappoint me

I'm not sure how you can make a quick buck off of having the correct opinion on Star Citizen, but I bet you can make some money off of being the septic tank filter that Steam's "new releases" list flows through. Put your list of recommendations up on the broader Internet, put it behind a paywall, obvious - but then you monetize it from the other end, too, since plenty of game devs would eagerly pay you to get some exbrosure.
I might at some point if I change jobs, but I'm technically already paid to pull these lists, so I can't really turn this into a money making side hustle.
I really like a lot of their videos, but they’ve felt decidedly low effort lately (sponsor segments that are like 40% of the video runtime), and their recent Last of Us premiere party video kind of crossed the line from ironic self-deprecation to uncomfortably genuine over getting invited to/making videos about industry events so much so that it kinda squicked me out in a way I couldn’t quite put my finger on.
The guy is currently making fun of the comments they’re getting, put on a fedora in game and said “me thinks you are transphobic, milady”
They’re basically having a super neoliberal meltdown about it. They don’t specifically hate trans people, so streaming the game is fine. They can’t understand why people would be upset by this in any way.

Yeah I haven’t looked up what happened to her since but it was a super weird and awful turn

I recall one of these ladies and it might have been this one. Swung on with the woman haters and was shocked they treated her like shit too. Really idiot bite man moment
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

Oh they're doing that thing.
