Of late I've noticed an emerging trend on YouTube of popular creators presenting more visible vulnerability and engaging with reflection alongside their fans, rather than hiding it. And live streaming culture often encourages such as well, since the long, unstructured time spans naturally create those moments. This practice rather counteracts the belief in the supernaut, since it humbles and demonstrates a kind of solidarity with everyone who isn't "making it". It doesn't exactly counter the negatives of parasociality in these spaces, but it opens the window for the audience to reconsider.
