that's why the smarter, more business oriented content creators make separate channels for separate types of content, and only cross promote using the channel audience to get the initial "kick". as an example, the well known channel "economics explained" has found that there's a lot of political content when talking about economics of a country. It brings in different and perhaps undesirable audiences - in the comments for example, arguing. Instead of changing, their (correct, imho) move is to create a new channel ("context matters"), which discusses geopolitical events and such, but cross promote it so that it gets a head start in the algorithm. A youtube channel is a business. Don't let it be personal. Go where the money is, but also keep your integrity. Use smarts to avoid breakdowns in incentives.
