>>5104547No, it's a really bad idea.
First of all, politics is an inherently divisive issue. Most people from the liberal arts circles (aka the ones that become vtubers) are, as the name suggests, liberals, very left-leaning people. So as you can imagine, the right-wing crowd and edgelords from /pol/ are going to wage war against such a personality. That would force such a vtuber to exist in a bubble, which won't be fun for anyone. And you can't be a centrist either, because that would just bring both political camps upon your ass.
The second issue is education. All too many "political commentators" on YT are uneducated in actual politics, they're journos and economists most of the time. Their actual input is worthless, and they act more like celebrities, selling merchandise and building their carrier on how viral they are, not how correct they are. The problem is, you can make a somewhat coherent video on the subject even without education, you just need a script. But streaming is different. Someone like Paul Joseph Watson, for instance, becomes a blabbering idiot the second he goes off-script, while Ben Shapiro became a god among political commentators and a "cool kids philosopher" simply because he has some actual education in political science and he practiced public speaking. So even if you want to become a political Vtuber for some reason, you need to be at least as good as Ben Shapiro.
The only way to do this would be to have two very educated people of opposing political views discuss news and have debates. That way, it would be a discussion worth listening to, and it won't alienate half of the population. Good luck finding women with such education willing to put on shows and use silly anime avatars for some godforsaken reason. The talent pool won't be very large.
