I’ve heard in a couple of places that the TV, streaming, and movie systems can’t really make an appealing offer to top-tier YouTubers. YouTubers want the prestige of being a “real” content producer, and not “just” a YouTuber, but non-YT producers can’t offer the level of control one has over their own channel. It’s not even about money, it’s about taking orders from some executive about not only content but monetization as well.
I admit I hadn’t read anything about the situation before that post - I only knew that GTA VI leaks occurred and wanted to know what the GTA community was saying. I read more after posting and people say Kurtaj is autistic, and I didn’t mean to imply that autism is something that requires “recovery.” It’s just the way people describe Kurtaj… like he’s some kind of mad super villain. He’s violent, well-spoken, extremely talented, irreverently defiant, obsessed with digital extortion, and reckless to his own detriment. Either Kurtaj is a highly singular personality or there’s something fishy going on here.
Can you elaborate more? What are “corporate simps” saying about Kurtaj exactly? If he’s mentally unwell, shouldn’t people be supporting efforts for his recovery?
This is the way. There’s some good advice but it’s not universally applicable. The problem is, Uncle Bob defends his philosophy as if it was, diminishing the advice’s reputation.
