The thing about the "unimportant politicians" is a thing in every industry.

As a relatively small YouTuber (50K subs), I have never really spoken to giant YouTubers with millions of subscribers.

But I have spoken to many medium sized YouTubers (100K-1M subs), who are speaking to those giant YouTubers as well as to me.

I don't know MrBeast, but I know a guy who has personally worked with him on videos.

One person can speak to a lot of imporant people throughout their career. You just have to meet them.

Yeah, that's what I meant by "nexuses like that" but see now I left unstated "everywhere"/"in every area". Politics is an obvious one, since we see them campaigning and talking to lots of people, but trade shows, professional associations, parties, jobs, incidental effects of jobs (talking to reporters who talk to "everyone") all tend to connect a lot of people to a smaller set of far better connected people.
