Yeah apparently this is suppose to be parody/satire, according to the reddit thread made a couple days ago when it originally got posted.

But is it really if you can see some self-absorbed thot actually doing this and thinking they are clever? Honestly when I first saw it, it didn't even phase me and I just thought "yeah that's where we are at now..."
Yeah, it's fake, but I don't blame anyone watching this industry to take it seriously on first glance (as I did). I wouldn't be surprised if there are moderately successful vtubers who are doing these types of deals on the down-low, or at least trying to. And there are sites like E-Pal where you can basically rent people to play video games with you. This idea has precedent so it doesn't seem as ridiculous as it should on its face.
That said, even if it were legit, I think I'd pass. I think something like pre-roll ads on vtuber clips would be a better idea for the money because you get tools for targeting and analytics and such, and in general it just feels gross to have that dividing line between content (the other person's stream) and advertisement (my presence on it) constantly eroded. It could even lead to backlash and leave me off worse than when I started.
