Do you guys really buy into these self ads for influencers

It's a tale as old as time: YouTuber's PR team or the influencer themselves post the influencers face to /G/ and say "is he our savior?". Then people take the bait and ask who, along with original poster. The person then looks up guys name and watches their YouTube videos.

Somehow 🙄 the mods just don't see or take down the post! As if it's legitimate chatter about some influencer, who isn't tech.

...Do you guys actually fall for this shit?
