If there was magic in this world, it would be known.
Out of everone who does magic, don't tell me not ONE would've tried to reach fame or something.
I really want to believe but stuff like James Randi did prove that it probably doesn't exist.

Funny how nobody ever seems to answer to this kind of statement. I'm not trolling here, but I just wish somebody could at least explain one good reason why no magic has ever been made public.

If they are powerful enough to make their magic known, they are better off privately benefiting from it, than spreading it to the masses. You say nobody like that exists, but this planet is run by a secret society of occultist who larp about their magical practices dating back thousands of years.
They are what the lone magician has to contend with if they want to change the status quo, and these people are willing to kill to keep their secrets. What do you want? Someone to martyr themselves so the normie masses can 'believe' enough to start practicing for themselves? You know what happened to the last guy who did that don't you? They killed him in a particularly excruciating way.

What's the story? Never heard of it.

Jesus.
We are immortal beings. Forgive me if I don't want the remembrance of 12k years since the fall of Atlantis, rebuilding myself, learning the ancient ways of the ones who came before me, carefully staying hidden from the evil cults of the world, to culminate in a viral video on youtube or ticktock before I get disappeared or killed. And what media platform would I proclaim my secret identity and magical powers on? Which one wouldn't take my video down before 10k people even saw it? Why do you think aliens have been covered up and hidden from the public for the past 100 years?
You think someone would throw all that away, get get rich or famous?
