"I don't plan to have my kid dream to become a influencer"
Yeah man control your kids dreams that'll work.
Acting involves attunement with fellow actors and being part of a larger creative process and work. It's a lot of showing up in person and figuring out how to work with others.
Influencers need only stay at home, work a camera, and manage parasocial fan conversations. There's no inherent in-person physicality of relationships and all the socializing that entails, nor even the need for peer relationships or any connection to a larger work that the influencer is a part of. At its core it's only a streamer and some people they probably don't know watching.
I think it's important to make the distinction between people who stream video games versus professional influencers.
Disclaimer: I don't rate either.
If those 1,000 office workers actually provide benefit for humanity, it's a no-brainer that they do more "good" than a YouTuber.
Not every YouTuber does what you describe. A good chunk of them are just talking heads, doing unboxings, reviews, streaming games, and just generally not doing anything that tangibly benefits humanity.
Same goes for office workers. Exceptions in every demographic though, right?
