YouTubers and The Digital Finger?
Posted: Fri Jun 26, 2026 3:35 am
Certain YouTubers are aggressively mining data to wage a campaign against the Church. It leaves one wondering if any Church leaders or members will lose sleep over it. This barrage of reputation-damaging content is reaching over millions of views— potentially generating profit for these creators—as the anti-Mormon niche operates in full force. These attacks are relentless and fierce, leaving nothing off-limits. The creators are young, digitally savvy, and gifted speakers, some who transitioned from serving as missionaries to becoming prominent figures gathering followers in opposition. Doctrinally, this behavior calls to mind scriptures in both the Bible and the Book of Mormon regarding the devil marshaling forces to destroy the Church and its believers. But they may think they are angels bound and determined to expose the Evil Empire. My take: when you set up a YouTube Channel, don't be one-sided, bring in equally prepared members to defend their beliefs so the public can weigh both sides. That seems fair. One-sided narratives will generate one-sided followers, maybe that's all it takes to make some Mula from YouTube these days. Funny thing, I just saw several YouTube videos against the Amish... LOL. this world is something else.
