People clearly do care, that's why they manufacture drama. It helps drive engagement and views.

Of course, it's hard not to look down on people who develop parasocial relationships with youtube personalities.

But some people are very lonely. So if anything we should be critical of the youtuber who knowingly cultivate unhealthy fanbases and profit off their misery.

I don’t look down on them per se.

Id just appreciate if they could keep their interests within the bubble of those respective communities.

I.e. not invoking the spippycoo drama in comparison to actual news.
