Who is the author of this video? What type of stuff do they usually do? Generally credible?
He’s an ex-worker at Jimmy’s firm. If everything he said is false, it’s an easy defamation lawsuit for Jimmy versus him. He dug his own grave. I think he wasn’t dumb to do that. The points he made made sense to me, except the legal stuff. I’m not an attorney. Anyway, we haven’t heard Jimmy’s side.
Why do people call him Jimmy so often? We don’t know him. He signs MB on his merch so it seems unnecessary.
True that if the guy making accusations does not have proof, it will be a pretty shit position to be in. I have seen other creators giving him the benefit of the doubt based on their experiences collaborating Mr. Beast though, so it’s kind of early to tell. And the illegal lottery accusations seem pretty straight forward to prove based on archived videos circulating.
Edit: reworded first few sentences.
If he did conduct illegal lotteries, what a 💩 way to treat your viewers, many of whom were kids, seemingly. He said something like “The 10th buyer in the next 5 min will win 30000.” right? Did those winners get their prizes? If no, it was a scam.
The 💤 deprivation was inhuman. The running thing was cruel.

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 need a monthly reminder of this - fuck Phil.
We’ll be right back
What’s with the recent traction for the Mr Beast hate train? There have been a few posts lately talking about how bad this guy is.
Since nobody pointed it out yet there’s also controversy because his friend was being inappropriate with and allegedly touching kids using the fact that they work with Mr beast. That just came out before all this. And Mr beast fired them, but there’s a lot of discord messages that Mr beast was in on as well where some of the inappropriate stuff towards kids was happening as well
There’s a part 1 to this video that goes into it. Basically:
- videos are faked (reality level TV stuff - making the timers look like they’re still counting down)
- there was a person who was recently on staff who was a sexual deviant named Ava Kris Tyson who also seemed to be obsessed with teenagers and ran a discord server talking about inappropriate stuff (this is worse than my description sounds)
- Beast was on this server for a time but doesn’t seem to have been an active participant
- Illegal lotteries from the Streaming “giveaways”
- claiming his chocolate is “healthy” and encourage kids to eat it to have a chance at randomly winning a prize
- in Aus, having an app for the chocolate that says you win a prize when you pull the slots but you actually don’t win anything (basically getting triple 7s and getting told you win nothing)
- safety issues with the beast games, moving to Canada so no union workers can join, etc.
- this video explains some horrible stuff Mr Beast and team did for a single video
Really the biggest deal I think is the illegal lotteries. Because those are actual criminal acts
Part 1 also shows some evidence of fake contestants (who are actually actors) that end up winning the prize.
Just people finding out that Santa isn’t real but in fact a company which uses psychological warfare to sell you something that is bad for you.
A story as old as capitalism.
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.
30 minutes of this video is an interview… that touches on different aspects of the beast operation beyond the scope of the first.
The YT account only has two videos (the two about beast).
I don’t believe he himself (the creator) was an influencer.
He turned off monetization on the video.
Thanks for the preface, but all this reply does is stir the pot without adding anything of value to the convo.
To be honest, they seem to be taking a very media literate approach (impressively so, they definitely learned some stuff about YouTube and how to do this kind of thing) to this whole thing, so I kind of get the “farming for views” stance.
But I get it since that means they are actually getting traction instead of just being a thing that drama YouTube talks about for a week and gets swept under the rug. The video notes he’s a very powerful figure in a relatively small town, so they need media pressure on their side.
People have to be able to question the motive of content without being accused of “stirring the pot”. Personally I really appreciated that the comment you replied to was posted, as it led you to reply to it, so that I could get more context and information.
Ya know what? Fair.
I do think that’s a reasonable take, but the person I replied to seemed unwilling to engage with the content in question but still wanted to chime in casting random uninformed doubts. Doesn’t add much of anything. If they had cited parts of the video that made them question it I wouldnt have said anything, because honestly I ALSO asked myself those questions.
Yes, it’s so suspicious that to cover the crimes of a psychopath with a media empire would take several hours of documentary evidence.
he stated out what is going to be in part 3 in the begining of 2nd video. He’s also making them as fast as he can from what it seems not even waiting a response lol
Guess who’s gonna make the alt-right turn in a month?
That’s right! It’s Mr
BeastCouchIll 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.
Mr. Beast’s suppurating carcass should be fired into the sun.
EDIT: along with anyone who downvoted this comment. Sorry, pacifists.
Upvote for suppuration
Maybe the downvotes are because firing him into the sun would be very expensive. Just fire him into a volcano or something more local than the ball of plasma 8 light minutes away that we have way too much momentum to hit easily.
Who?
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.
My nephew introduced me to him via a video of him taking is friends through more and more expensive airplane trips.
It was cool, extremely showoffy, I never watched any of his stuff after that.
He broke laws to encourage children to gamble, he isn’t dancing the border, he’s flat on the Evil side with a good PR team.
Kudos to Kavernacle for being the original hater, he was shit talking Mr Beast 4 years ago in the height of his popularity.
The whole “content cop” vibe of this video is fucked considering its such a serious topic. We need an actual journalist to dig into this.
I don’t use the word cringe much, but the way this was presented gave me second-hand embarrassment. It was hard for me to watch, content notwithstanding.
Yeah the delivery would be better in some normal clothes tbh
Youtube drama being presented in the youtube style is fair.
I’ve never watched a single video of his and I could have told you that he’s a sociopath. Normal people do not act like he does.
How do you know how he acts if you never watched a single video?
News articles
I think he’s the most popular YouTube currently, or close to it if not. You can’t get around without hearing about him occasionally. The biggest thing I know about him is he does charity videos that he films where he gives poor people a little bit of money. It’s pretty obvious to me it’s just exploitation to improve his image, and also he makes far more money off the video than he gives away. Clearly he isn’t doing it because it’s a good thing, yet somehow people call him a good person because of it.
Look at all these people white knighting for a Sociopath being a for profit charity and scammer.
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
People like him prey on the naivety and good will of others. It’s basically the same behavior as people like Trump and Musk–they need to be constantly adored by others.
that’s exactly the feeling i had, he needs people to see him being a good person. that’s usually an indicator.
Someone showed me a video of him giving 100 people (age 1 to 100 or something) a chance to win money
The whole thing was gross and exploitive but he’s just laughing at them
The guy’s an absolute shitstain but protected because he makes youtube bank.
His kids snacks are disgusting and unhealthy, the clothes he sells fall apart after 3 washes, but since he makes kids glued to the screen, all of society will protect his assholery.
I hope he gets caught fucking a cow corpse.
I’ve never watched a single video of MrBeast. The topics just don’t interest me at all. I really don’t see the hype.
Showing your age bro…
His audience are kids, maybe early 20s now
You have to be a kid not to see the grift
Hahahahahaha ok I should take that onion off my belt. I guess it’s not in style anymore
His audience are kids, maybe early 20s now
It’s funny you say that, because last summer a coworker of mine became completely obsessed with Mr Beast. He’s a 50y/o retired marine captain. Not the kind of person that fits into the normal beast demographic.
genx with a boomer brain… no critical thinking lol
no critical thinking
Well, i did say marine…! 😂
whew! good sir, that’s 'em fighting words
Nah, he loves me. I talk shit to him all the time…
One time, he was bitching about how he’s the only one getting anything done at work. He said “I’ve done a million things today. I did A, and B.” And i asked him if that’s how he thought counting worked. “1, 2, a million? What is this, marine math?” And he fucking LOVED that. He uses “marine math” all the time now.
Nobody jokes about Marines being stupid more than marines. Well maybe the Air Force and navy. But the marines do it a lot too
My kids are both around 10yo and also like Mr Beast, even though we don’t let them watch YT very much.
You gotta be damn dumb too, which is a lot of people (including kids). Some kids see it and don’t fall for it, sadly it’s not the majority.
I have no idea who the guy is, but why is anyone surprised that someone who goes by Mr Beast is living up to his stage name?
To my understanding he got his internet fame primarily from videos of giving people money. Never watched his stuff though.
No, he got his fame (which ENABLED him to start giving away stuff, which became his formula, but didn’t bootstrap him) by performing superhuman feats of will and mental and physical endurance. Seriously. The man is not like most people on the inside. I won’t speculate what’s there but it’s different.
Idk I kinda like it when he burns and crushes stuff. We watch other more “people focused” videos like “don’t get out of chamber” stuff with my family but those have more of a TV show vibe than a youtube video
the guy who got famous by reading the entire dictionary and counting to a million on live camera is a sociopath?! i did not see this coming. /s
