>>2578521Sometimes one just has to get the bag. It may be low hanging fruit youtube drama. But those are the things you gotta do sometimes when you live off Youtube. One can't just "fail" and make no money one month. Like imagine a job where your salary is liable to go fluctuate say, 60% up or down depending on the whims of some unseen dipshit voyeur rating your performance.
The way I see it, even if BE has another job, and even if he currently has the choice to not rely on "content creation"… that's not always gonna be the case. Argentina is on a path to crash the peso again and leave the US dollars as the main store of value. Get ready to see all the redditors shitting on Argentinians "farming gold" in videogames and doing "mechanical turk" stuff in a couple of years.
So I don't blame BE for indulging the drama at all. And even then, BE has kept a principled anti-parasocial and anti-imperialist agitation line to his "slop channel" as well. I say this not as a fan, but as a random anon on an IB, I hope BE does well though the post-Milei period. Because it's probably gonna get ultra shitty and, if everything goes according to US vibes, coincide with another US sponsored blue wave across south America.
