How do you feel about increasing American dominance in the industry? It's the world's richest country and a massive cultural center, but even with those expectations I still am impressed by the results so far.
As an example I can't think of a single British tuber. Or danish. Or swedish. Or russian. Or aussie.

Over a billion people speak english so you'd figure we'd see more Kiara's in the industry.

I think it has a cap and we're probably close to reaching it. There's a strong aversion to anime/moe in the anglosphere that doesn't exist in most other places. The real challenger to watch out for is, unfortunately, China.

I would be inclined to agree with you but America is a very diverse country. Even our whites are diverse. You got the Irish, thr Southern Irish, the Northern Irish, the German Irish -- blah blah blah blah -- German Texans, German Northerners -- blah blah blah -- Old New Englanders, more recent Irish New Englanders -- BLAH BLAH BLAH -- east coast chinese west coast chinese -- BLAH DE FUCKING BLAH

Facts don't really bear out. Gura, Amelia, and Mori are American. Out of those, only Mori is a wigger, and she's a sperg that doesn't really get political.

The nigger lover of HoloEN is Kiara, an European. Hell doxfags even posted some real stomach-turning pics of her being picked up and carried around by a nigger yesterday. It's also Kiara who is pushing for VShojo collabs, and those thots are basically straight out of a /vt/ schizo's worst nightmares for what would happen if American girls got let into the hobby.

I'm not happy because like all things touched by Amerilards, they're going to demand that it change to fit their lowest common denominator.

This is actually a fair counter my post here >>4102738 and I will say that they got very fucking lucky with their picks on the others.

The only Chinese media that matters is Chinese emigrants. China's censorship fundamentally renders it uncompetitive as soon as they try to leave their bubble.

That's why even South Korean media outcompetes China on the global market despite having less than 3% of China's population.

as a zoomie ill admit it's a bit scary seeing my friends transition into more and more pc positions. but i don't think the majority of them are doing it for reasons other than social pressure on their public face.
many zoomies in america have a public profile and a private profile. you do the math on why only one of those profiles mentions blm and how humble they are.

give some time. as millenials lose control over the country's leftward politics you'll see a change. zoomies do have more openness to social positions like trans people or fighting racism, but they are conservative. they're conservative in the sense they value the past and are afraid. they're conservative in the sense of living in a post 9/11 world where cartel beheadings videos and seeing christchurch is something they've all done or know someone who's done.
again, give some time. they value the east but are nihilistic as fuck and depressed as well as desperate to do well in the world, even if it means drinking the kool aid for a bit.

The races are diverse but we still have groups of cultures of which multiple races belong to. Vtubing is ultimately a corporate product, and there exists a specific gateway to entry for one to start it as a past-time.
Way more people fall into the twitch streamer rabbit hole, for instance, because it's far easier and doesn't require watching Anime faces. Which is something most Americans actively despise.

I wonder why Cover doesn't scout more Japanese Americans like Coco. Don't Japanese people like Japanese Americans? I would be very proud of my culture existing and being respected in another country. Japanese enclaves and communities and all else. Especially since Japanese Americans are disproportionately at the higher end of the wealth spectrum in America.

Not him, I like to think this as well but this will probably take multiple generations to fix. The people who have the idea of being monitored through their own social media which could cancel them at any minute can't be untrained by itself. It's going to take multiple generations of people telling the censors to fuck themselves for them to lose power.

as a zoomie ill also add politics shift a fucking lot in highschool. i went in as a bernie sanders supporter who thought he was too kind. full on destruction of private property and let the workers work without capitalists.
then, of course, i had the counter culture experience et all.
my friend who held a trump sign with me in highschool is now a trans rapper. no im not kidding i am dead serious. I still like them and we had a whole thing with their transition, and their views are a little whack but they are fairly consistent in fucking hating the racial bullshit. we're fucking insane because we have no clue what to make of this world. give your brother some time and he might start reading mein kampf to your parents.

Probably quite a bit. The only major disqualifier I see is fluent Japanese. Even then Japanese Americans are pretty cool people, there's bound to be some amount who speak both languages, able to stream, and are interesting.

I could probably put a number on it by searching YouTube's tags. There's a fair amount of Ksons out there.
Part of the benefit of Anonymity afforded by v-tubing is it really shows your uniqueness and interesting character. Plenty of jnteresting people in the world who hide themselves.
