He is an evil individual who fails to address systemic issues or assist people for their own benefit.

As a game show host, he humiliates and exploits participants, boasting about his own virtues without any regard for the contestants.

Examples:

I believe legal intervention is necessary to limit his actions towards people and prevent him from exploiting them for personal gain.

Quick note: while I believe that results of some of his videos is good ( which he did to show how good of a person he is), that does not change the facts about his evil videos, the same way bezoz donations does not make him a good person.

    True, but they agree to do it because they need money. It’s like Squid Game but less extreme (I actually never saw squid game so maybe that’s a bad analogy). The system has failed these people (presumably) and he exploits their need for money in order to make himself look good and raise awareness of his brand so he can make more money too. At least I assume that’s OP’s point

      Well I don’t think any participant in a MrBeast challenge has ever been shot in the head so I’d say it’s a pretty bad analogy.

        Analogy: a comparison of 2 identical events.

        Brilliant

          The differences between these two is extreme enough to merit ridicule.

          I do not like giveaways because most of them are just tax-write-offs.

          However, if someone has money, it is theirs to decide how to use. And if someone else is being helped and not harmed, then it’s a good thing.

          I do not know of anyone being harmed by MrBeast.

          But I do know of people and animals benefitting from his generousness.

          Being embarrassed is not the same as physical injury.

          Much like participation in MrBeast videos is not the same as participation in Squid Game.

            Lmao, the effort you spent in responding to this thread is enough to merit ridicule. It’s especially sad considering the content you wrote with that effort.
