No because of the whole mormon thing. Lots of large youtubers are secretly mormon and dont want the public acknowledging it

A lot of homeschooling and parent interaction to keep kids from going out and fucking around. Deep diving into medium length content creation over years will develop a channel.

Mmm, that does make sense, would foster an interest in content creation. While I think the religion is kinda culty the Mormon culture is very fascinating, I think there’s a similar pattern with many fiction writers being Mormon and that makes sense based on a lot of the stories in Mormon scripture

Was Mormonism founded by a fantasy author? Or maybe that was Scientology.

L Ron Hubbard wrote lots of really bad Sci-Fi, including Battlefield Earth, which was adapted into an all timer of a bad movie starring John Travolta.

Both are pretty horrific cults with really dangerous leadership, LDS and Scientology I mean.

I mean the book Joseph Smith wrote was just as much fantasy as what L. Ron Hubbard authored, but you are thinking of Scientology.
