Just because it isn't a "traditional" form of entertainment, doesn't mean that it's not a job. How do you view musicians? Or singers? A singer says words in a way that people find it enjoyable, musicians play music that people enjoy. On the other hand, not everyone enjoys music! Btw, this isn't just for musicians and singers, this can apply to almost any job. My point is, there is too wide of an interest range in society to say that streaming is pointless. There's always going to be people who need money. Streaming is literally never going to stop. There is always somebody interested. Just saying though, I completely agree with what you said about people who beg for money. That isn't right for them to do. But I think there could've been more specification in what you said, because not every streamer does that.

  • Singers, musicians, actors, painters, etc. are career jobs. Playing a video game is not a career job.

  • Let me define career for you. "An occupation undertaken for a significant period of a person's life" The streamers who do it as a job stream every single day. I'd say that is a pretty significant portion of their lives. They make their living from it, therefore making it an occupation. So, I'd say that's as much of a career as anything else, even if it isn't your traditional "doctor" or "officer".

  • It doesn't matter who raised me! The simple fact is that people are making money off of this because others enjoy it. If you can't accept that, then don't watch! There is literally no reason for you to bring up streaming unless you are in any way affected by it. If you don't have enough of a life to do anything but complain, then don't blame others for it. Don't flatter yourself into thinking you're right, because if you think what you said is true then you've clearly never even watched a stream.
