Does it feel weird to anyone else watching American Streamers in this political climate?

Like I know not everyone is a political commentator and won't touch politics for fear of ostracizing their audience.
But sometimes seeing most creators not expressing any shock at these unprecedented times makes me think "damn this seems dystopian".
I imagine what would the world be like if streaming was available during Hitlers rise.
Would people just be living in their bubble of "thanks for watching, hit like and subscribe, and if you use this code on simplisafe you'll get 20 percent off!" winky face
Idk if I could do it, never talk about it or taking a stand. Its just too big to ignore. At least imo.
What do you guys think? Also lemmy wanted me to add a picture so here's a picture of my dog.
I wouldn't want my streamer to talk about current politics. I'm there to escape that talk. It's the same reason I'm not subscribed to any political communities, if I want that news I'll go to all.
The only steamer whose opinion I trusted was Scoot. Rest in Power, big cat. He didn’t even steam himself, he was just part of YMS.
Eventually it'll leak in, you can't escape it. The foot fetish community thought they were safe and then today happened.
I read your comment while a streamer just said the exact same thing. No politics on his stream because entertainment is to relax and not get stressed out.
