>>6281005I don’t think there are necessarily bots pretending to be human on the internet. More likely, it’s algorithms sorting which things are shown to people. Like Twitter just shadowbanning anything that the AI doesn’t approve of.
Also I don’t think chubbas are necessarily created or funded by the system. They’re essentially just another facet of the modern entertainment behemoth. There’s millennia worth of content freely available on the internet. If we weren’t watching vtubers, we would just be consuming some other form of entertainment.
Ultimately, entertainment as a whole is destructive (and probably is being weaponized by the elites/system to distract us).
The great challenge of the modern world is being able to resist vapid entertainment and replace it with fulfilling activities and quality entertainment. It’s possible to watch vtubers casually instead of watching every single stream they do.
