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.
Yeah the delivery would be better in some normal clothes tbh
Youtube drama being presented in the youtube style is fair.
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.
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

See how hard the responses are just for saying anything. Same shit markings on any of these things lately.

He broke laws live on stream to convince kids to gamble. This has nothing to do with any possible presidential run.

… it’s literally in the video… Twice…
And now because I know you are here to do nothing but waste my time, you will probably ask me for a timestamp, and I would normally provide it of course because I want to keep the discussion intellectually honest.
But it’s pretty clear that you don’t, and of course after ignoring my timestamp hyperlink, you will make up some vapid arguments on how it is unpossible for Mr Least to ever have done such a thing and that I’m stupid for misunderstanding federal gambling laws.
And we can go back and forth for hours, me posting evidence, you saying whatever stupid shit that comes to your mind to push the discussion far away from the original point that Mr. Least is illegally involving children in gambling.
And I am so just fuckdamn tired of intellectually dishonest people like you ‘just asking questions’.
So
Amazingly
Fuckdamn
Tired.
So you’re blocked now.

Anyone that’s not a maniac
Your abelism infuriates me. If I were younger, I’d waste an hour rhetorically browbeating you.
You could have already completely watched the video by now but still you are here whining for timestamps just like I predicted you would. The more shitstain forum sliders keep using the same tactics, the easier it is to call your uncreative asses out on it.
Mr. Least encouraged children to gamble, broke gambling laws to increase buying pressure, and even less shocking apparently hasn’t made good on most of the ‘winners’ anyway.
Yet you are here pretending he just accidentally bent a few obscure sweepstakes laws instead of the critical point that he USED HIS INFLUENCE OVER CHILDREN TO CONVINCE THEM TO GAMBLE!
Username checks out.

Wendell is a leftist. His current newest video has him say that.
It’s not vague at all, Mr Least actively broke gambling laws multiple times during livestreams to push sales. May I remind you his primary audience is children, he was encouraging children to illegally gamble for prizes and money.
So I think you have to be a part of his shitty PR team and have now blocked you for all eternity.
Guess who’s gonna make the alt-right turn in a month?
That’s right! It’s Mr
BeastCouchthe 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
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
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.
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.
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.
That’s the content I want to see.
Mr. Beast is playing some deathmatch irl
That’s the content I want to see.
Not in this here country, boy!
Here the rich punk the losers with impunity while any pleb resistance will be treated as violent felony for even suggesting you are entitled for a raise for the work you do.
I’ve got to say, I’m disappointed in Lemmy for the amount of upvotes you’re receiving for a comment as sickening as this.
Killing someone just for revenge should never be the answer. That’s the kind of tactic that makes dictators and fascists what they are. The desire to watch something like that is even more alarming.
Yeah bloodthirst is never a good look, especially about something that doesn’t even affect you and is some abstract internet drama vol. 2762
It indicates you are some emotional ball of unpredictable that should probably be monitored by fbi and locked up at any signs of planning. A picture of greasy hair, basement, ar15 appears in my mind. Stained Mickey Mouse tee
Half of hexbears are like that
Yeah, I agree with you. That shit’s fucked up.
They’re not killing him for revenge. They’re killing him for money. Big difference. I’m sure he’s killed quite a few people for money, so I don’t think he has any room to complain.
Maybe the french should’ve just asked nicely for the nobles to treat them better.
This is what I’ve said about Mr.Beast from day 1. First video I saw of his was putting his friends in a taped off square in some backyard and the last one to leave keeps the car. So a rich asshole makes people dance for money and then he profits off the video for more than he paid. Mr.Beast is 1 of 2 youtubers that I have used an extension to explicitly block me from seeing his videos in my feed.
Please, what is the extension, the people need to know without googling
BlockTube. It let’s you block all kinds of stuff from specific videos to channels, even block shorts outright. I only use the channel block feature, so your milage may vary with the rest of it, but it’s pretty easy to use so it works for me.
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
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.
Hahahahahaha ok I should take that onion off my belt. I guess it’s not in style anymore
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
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.

You think investigative journalism isn’t worthy?
“Your brain must be the consistency of wet toilet roll” , said the ignorant man.
I don’t say that about people who know sportsball players. People know the main players in their chosen media, whether they are a fan or not.
It’s like a different universe isn’t it. How can people care this much?
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.
I think doing war crimes on someone is worse than being a degen.
hiring a sex offender when his audience is focused on kids is suspect… then covering for two of them?
GTFO
Kudos to Kavernacle for being the original hater, he was shit talking Mr Beast 4 years ago in the height of his popularity.
Who?
Look at all these people white knighting for a Sociopath being a for profit charity and scammer.
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.
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.
deleted by creator
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.
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.
