    Interesting bootlicker take amidst a content creator strike in Hollywood. Granted YouTube isn’t under those Unions, but the power dynamics are quite similar (#YouTubeUnion)

    Sponsors don’t give a shit about creators, they are just an annoying necessity for the content creator.

    Why give a shit about a sponsor who doesn’t give a shit about the YouTuber you enjoy?

      Less of a bootlicker, more of wanting my favourite creators to be able to eat.

      I don’t disagree with you, but most creators aren’t just going to make content for nothing. The power dynamics on YouTube are subpar. I completely support some sort of creator union, however that may work, but if watchtime on sponsor segments plummet sponsor payouts plummet too.
