Hololive is a company that produces "internet idols." There's a few companies like this, but Hololive is probably at the top right now. It's basically just a bunch of internet personalities doing entertaining things behind anime girl avatars. Other companies include VShojo (Kson, Henya the Genius, Zentreya), PhaseConnect (Pipkin Pippa), and as people hesitate to say, Nijisanji.
There's also a couple of independent VTubers out there. You want a redpilled VTuber that still takes the time to do fun things? Look up Kirsche Verstahl. Rev is typically a one-note news reaction content guy.
In terms of indie Vtubers, I like to suggest Vedal/Neuro. They're big enough to have both clippers and fan content to check out, but still very much their own duo of programmer-and-his-yandere-evil-supercomputer-AI... Except that part isn't a characterization act, it's actually an AI he's developing, which gives an ongoing narrative that is very real. Lots of collabs too, so you see some other faces.
Very much non-political, though. Despite Neuro's best efforts sometimes to get into hot takes, Vedal's pretty fast on the filter button to make sure he isn't banned... again (to the point where she will use "filtered" as a protest and a swear word).
Neuro is the ONLY one I enjoy actively and sometimes even live. I follow a lot through clippers but Neuro is very well worth checking out both for Vedal who is hilarious when he has Neuro be snappy at him. Though Evil is probably my favorite of the 2 "daughters" he has.
