I keep thinking I should look into this MrBeast drama, then I remember I just do not give a single fuck.
I went through a h3h3 phase when I was like 20, then realised that any YT drama is just toxic and it’s best to avoid it entirely.
I miss Tom Scott, just made quality videos with none of the BS. Nothing over the top, just interesting content from a genuine guy who cares about his audience.
Ill post this comment here too since it's the same video, but you might want to put a content warning on this video, it's pretty rough.
The first video is largely about him running illegal lotteries, which is pretty terrible given the scale they operate at, but it's something that the average person might not know about or really think about it being essentially child gambling.
This second video is an interview with a former employee who was put in solitary confinement for a video that never made it to YouTube because it was actually just them torturing him. Like, legitimate Geneva Convention war crime torture. Constant noise, no idea what time it is because you can't see the sun, constant lights so you can't sleep, constant monitoring, and him running until his feet bled.
If any of it is anywhere near true they need to be sued off the face of the planet in addition to going to prison.
Fuck Mr. Beast. The real heroes worthy of praise are your friends and neighbors who are out there volunteering and/or doing good things for others without making a fucking spectacle of it.
Mr. Beast with his bucky ass face and products plastered on every last corner of the earth has left a bad taste in my mouth for years, but up until recently people have been unable to criticize him in any way without a thousand others rushing to his defense and declaring what a beautiful, selfless person he is. It's Ellen all over again.
People truly are blinded by philanthropy-for-clout and mistake it for genuine goodwill. Truly good people do not film themselves handing out food and money.
I think Dogpack is brave. Jimmy and his attorneys can cook up a worthless lawsuit to hurt Dogpack financially. Jimmy is so rich legal expenses won't be problematic. While Dogpack may have a hard time with legal expenses, I think.
It's like Logan Paul versus Coffeezilla. Logan is so rich; Coffeezilla isn't.
No shit. Billionaire pays poor people to embarrass or endanger themselves, uses it to promote himself.
Here’s an idea for a video: Mr. Beast and the Box of Knives. Him, the people he exploits, and a box of knives. Whoever kills him gets to keep his money.
i literally had no idea who this guy was until like last year.. my partner showed me some clips and i immediately got bad vibes. i told her i thought he was just doing these nice things for the money and attention and she was shocked. but here we are lol
I’m not a YouTube guy; I only follow one channel I found during the Covid lockdowns, this kid called Technoblade who was low key while being really good at the game Minecraft. They worked together sometimes. Didn’t make Mr Beast seem very cool.
From what I’ve seen, he just inserts his loud personality into things by throwing money at people. It was never “hanging out with Mr Beast”, but “Mr Beast is giving out money”. Those guys are generally bad people, I cannot think of an exception.
This fella loves using his leverage manipulating people into whatever the fuck he wants them to do. The border between good and evil is so close it is nearly indistinguishible. Stay the fuck away from him if you can.
I’m going to preface this by pointing out that I don’t watch Mr. Beast, and I didn’t watch either of the two videos. My only comment is that it’s a little suspicious that this person is stretching out the accusations across two (three?) videos, across multiple days. Feels like they’re farming for the drama views for as long as possible.
I have seen enough to know those is all some weird ass bullshit campaign too fuck this guy. It's all been so engineered and vague. What a joke
Actually reading these comments I'm starting to get it. I think mr beast is a bit of a powerful influencer. But generally apolitical. Inn order to sway him the right will make these huge pushes trying to find dirt to force these influencers to end up like Russell Brandt where he looks for an audience on the right after the left eats the onion
Jimmy has done plenty of interviews where he says he is a degenerate. He doesn’t hide it. He’s a dirtbag. If you just watch his videos you may not know, but it’s pretty much in plain sight.
