I just think it’s incredible, I was watching her years ago, and was amazed, and to see the growth in people being drawn to her content, on subject matter they don’t even particularly enjoy, just to watch her talk about it, has been so very enjoyable. I added her numbers because it’s a benchmark of the success I am so pleased she’s experiencing.
Oh, no doubt she’s fantastic. Her Vampire Diaries essay is still my go-to for background viewing. Even now the China Beach ad gives me giggles.
It’s just strange to focus so much on how many millions she may make when in reality she’s got almost no merch and uses copyrighted material in her videos that probably prevent a lot of monetization. She doesn’t have millions because most YouTubers with her following have sponsors, ad reads, and patreon call outs. She doesn’t even say “like and subscribe” or say shit to generate comments. She goes against all advice on how to make a living from a channel and it works. So focusing on how much money she must have seems really antithetical to her channel.
But great to see she is getting mainstream attention! Hopefully her videos will affect change at Disney.
you may be right, i’ll delete that shit now
