    Eh, there is a ton of content creators who make cool stuff and don’t endanger other people.

      Exactly, there is a huge amount of quality content on Youtube. No need to demonize everyone because of shit like this. I honestly never even see ridiculous recommendations like these, so it really depends on what you watch and how you curate your feed.

      “Content creators” is in quotes because the person you’re responding to isn’t talking about everyone who posts content to Youtube, they’re referring to a specific culture derived from a subset of that group who will cravenly create any sort of material regardless of how much physical or societal harm can come from it. Examples: this plane-crashing psychopath, people creating “pranks” that hurt others or get kids to kill themselves, literally all and any alt-right media, etc.

      The problem is that they all think they’re important celebs. Content creator means noting more than you make videos for a website, but people get an ego about it and think they’re celebrities
