I feel like at least one user predicted this but the closest I could find was makotech222 saying she would become a full fledged lib over 400viewers

This is correct. Nothing of any importance has ever been decided in these e-celeb circles. Their entire "influence" has been making a relatively small segment of teen to early-20-something posters more annoying, and nothing else.
Remember that the largest of them, HasanAbi, has only 1.18 million subscribers, and typically gets maybe a quarter of that in views for his videos (on stream he's getting around 40k viewers on a good night, according to the "twitch recommends"). That's great for an online media career, but how many people is he reaching relative to the total (adult) population?
For easier math, I'll round his subscribers up to 2 million, and we'll pretend he or any of these people got most of their subs to watch. We'll also pretend that their viewership is entirely based in the US rather than spread out: The largest political streamer reaches about 0.7 percent of the adult population of the US under ideal circumstances.
Basically yeah. Obviously there is some threshold at which point a influencer becomes powerful/important enough where pushback becomes warranted, but spending your time and energy getting dikchikluvr1488 kicked off stream for his "why labensraim is good actually" is kind of a waste when he's got like 100 viewers. Like obviously the world would be better if every ficking fascist got throat punched into silence, but at a certain point the energy invested outweighs the good it might do; especially when the parasites feed of the drama.
this is extremely generous napkin math that 1) Hasan's audience in American adults 2) 1.18 rounds to 2 3) his subs aren't bots, abandoned accounts, hate watchers, etc. 4) the majority of what's left will watch a given video
