To restate what I think you're getting at, I had the same impression as you: they escaped the grind on to fall right back into the grinder. Running around in a loaner van, "we need content!" Making sure we get the girlfriend to pose in skimpy clothes. Making sure to mention the products. They answer to The Man more than I do in my 9-5.
Although I do try to avoid the channels that heavily exploit the women-in-bikinis thing, and prefer ones that are honest about the gritty and unpleasant details, like toilet repair.
My dissonance is that if you watch these videos most of them are full of rhetoric like "my generation doesn't like to settle" "I did what I was told went to college, found myself at a soulless marketing company and realized that I needed more" "I dare to think different" "I've never been a conformist". But if you read the article they are right in the middle of the world they hate. There life's work is product placement, brand repping, and promoting the superficial. Their youtube and instagram channels aren't documentaries of their lifestyle, they are just outlets for corporate attempts at growth hacking via sponsored photoshoots.
Anyway, these bloggers need to upgrade to VR.
