I don’t understand why people are so shocked and horrified when it turns out that people who do entertainment for a living have been professional entertainers the whole time.
Most of them are pretending that they aren’t corporate. YouTubers are generally trying to keep up the illusion of authenticity, which on YouTube usually includes pretending that you’re on your own.

I mean, the vast, vast majority of entertainment media is an act. Do you watch Top Gear and assume that everything they did happened organically?
No, but the point is that tv shows or movies generally don’t pretend like that.
Its the same reason I hate “reality shows”. Give me reality or give me fiction. Dont try pretending its real when its not
