    MrBeast is reasonably well known even outside YouTube, he’s doing shows for some other streaming service as well.

    People like the slow mo guys are also pretty well known too.

      people really don’t appreciate just how quickly legacy media is dying, more people watch any given asmongold stream than fucking…jimmy kimmel

      everyone knows by now just how obviously fake and bullshit all legacy media is, it’s why the powers that be are so desperate to reign in any social-media site not beholden to these oligarchs living in the past

        only boomers and older gen x are on legacy media. they are the ones that are easiest to convince. conservative govt all over the world has hopped onto social media propaganda and it works, with the help massive troll farms.

      Who?

      If you showed a photo of these people to someone random on the street, it is almost guaranteed they would not have a clue who they are.

      You’re just in a bubble.

        I’ve seen posters and billboards with the dude’s face on them while driving around, he’s famous outside of YouTube.

        There’s also people like the Slow mo guys who a lot of people would recognise.

        A lot of people watch YouTube.

        Many people wouldn’t recognize Bill Gates or Marilyn Monroe either. That has nothing to do with if they’re famous or not. You’re being disingenuous and you know it.

          It’s ironic that you accuse me of being disingenuous after saying something so ridiculous and unserious.
