That's rediculous. You think that influencer fame just happens? Influencers put lots of effort into being famous. Probably a similar amount as hollywood starlets of yesteryear put into being "discovered".

How many musicians do you think put in extreme effort without becoming famous?

It’s not that it’s easy, it’s that more people make it to B and C list fame.
