saying someone is jealous is just a terrible rebuttal.. I mean yeah of course we're jealous. I wish I was rich and was paid 100milion to make a TV show.
I'm not jealous or a hater, I just wish you made this video far earlier and didn't wait until it was socially acceptable to make a video noting Mr Beast's obvious flaws
That he's delusional enough himself isn't that shocking to me, but how so many people willingly ignore these red flags to defend a multimillionaire who'll never care about them is, when it's this cartoonishly villainous
The only thing the can be true is yes can mean no because some people are too timid to say their own opinion and go with the crowd or are victims of a abuser but not the opposite
The doc read as his unflitered thoughts ngl. It’s obviously too long but it reads like he wrote it in a day and just kept going on and on. I wonder what he took out or didn’t put in the doc
It's crazy that Rosanna was one of the first creators to reveal her bad experiences with Mr. Beast and people dismissed her bc "she was playing the gender card" because she was... sharing how she felt she was mistreated as a woman😑
Exactly, and now she's someone that people who have been in his videos or worked for the company feel safe to come to because she has been one of the few who has spoken candidly about their experience. Took such a long time for guys to speak out
i really hope rosanna pancino gets her flowers bc she was talking about mr beast way before some people and she had to retract her version of what SHE LIVED bc of backlash
I feel like she's starting to get recognised, in Jake Weddle's latest video he calls her out as someone who is "doing the lord's work" or a similar phrase, which is good to see. Sadly misogyny still rules the internet, but she played a hugely important role (and still is playing one) in this huge situation, as she's one of the few trusted people that folks who have been in his videos or worked with him feel safe to approach, though yet again, that burden is falling on a woman
i mentioned the situation to someone who hadn't known anything about it, and when i mentioned rosanna (we both loved nerdy nummies growing up btw) she said "yeah but isn't she lying? i think she's just going crazy" 😭😭😭 people really will call you crazy for being a victim 💔
Why have they tried to recreate a real world squid games TWICE? That show is about the tragedy of those without money being desperate enough to endure cruel and inhumane conditions for a shot at something better and how there are the morally repugnant wealthy people who not only get rich off the suffering of the lower class but actively enjoy facilitating and watching their humiliation. Both Netflix execs and Mr. Beast/Amazon thought ABSOLUTELY YES let's do that for real. It's not remotely surprising the horrifying reports that came out of both sets. It really takes a special kind of disconnected billionaire to host a squid games and place yourself as one of the rich naked creeps in animals masks laughing from behind the cameras.
The way people defended those games and acted like being critical of them was "too online" or whatever because it was for charity really pissed me off. The ends don't always justify the means.
I'm pretty sure Hwang Dong-hyuk (original writer and director of squid game) is having Hideo Kojima-moment and screaming to a pillow right about now. He creates a dystopia drama that most Koreans and rest of the world can relate, and then some "golden boy" of youtube creates it for real, abuses and neglects their contestants and gets away with it!
mr beast actually copied sam Hyde anyway. this wasn't even his original idea. sam Hyde has been talking about hell house and fish tank for over a decade and then Mr beast sees it and copies it and makes it worse
It's absolutely wild. Where any normal person would say "How horrific," he said "What a great idea." Evil seems like an appropriate word to describe him.
A psych study? Don’t worry babes, I’ve got a degree in it so I’ve run plenty of them already 🥰 (and I didn’t cause any ethics violations in the process 💫 )
"He hasn't done anything illegal." I'm not sure if the people know this, but depriving someone of sleep is a war crime, worthy of... a life sentence, if i'm remembering correctly.
As far as I know when it comes to US law, that only is applicable to POW, or prisoners, which Jake Weddle wasn't, he was an employee (doesn't make it ok, it's more that US law is weird). I don't know if he's going down the legal route here, but I'm sure that Legal Eagle will be coming out with another video of other allegations, if/when more come out and will cover the legalities
One second Rossana was "dramatic" and now it's all about how terrible mr beast has treated everyone including women. Makes you doubt if they actually care about how the "boy's club" treats women and more about taking down someone.
That's the issue, I feel, because "women are too emotional" women who come forward get swept aside, but now that bro's are talking about their experiences, it's being taken as a valid issue (as I talked about in this). I don't know if it's all about taking "someone down", or just the fact they've come to the realization that, no, actually, it's not worth keeping your negative experience to yourself and seeing the cycle keep going and having others get hurt because you didn't speak up - if that makes sense?
@@BryonyClaire oh definitely, I have nothing against the people who have come forward with their experience, I'm thinking more about the RUclipsrs that defended mr beast. Many of those RUclipsrs apology to Rosanna felt more like an after thought they "had to cover" in order to add to mr beasts wrong doings.
There have been multiple people, male and female, who spoke out over time. Gender has nothing to do with it, it's just that now there is both enough and widespread enough info for it to bubble over.
@@orionstokesweiss2344Gender absolutely has something to do with it. When she first spoke out people shaped it as her playing the gender card and harassed her to the point where she retracted her statement.
@Slayy05a The "anti-woke" stuff is literally just recycled mid 2000s anti-SJW misogynistic bros rethoric, it's not new, it just broke its LiveJournal and 4/7/8chan containment.
Society doesn't understand that people (especially celebrities) aren't either absolute demons or perfect angels. They can do clearly good things (giving money to people experiencing homelessness, cleaning up the environment, giving blind people surgery so they can see, etc) and also do really terrible things (awful business practices, treating workers poorly, abusing audience trust, etc). People can do bad things and still be a net positive, or vice versa
@@VictorianWaistcoat and they can be horrible people with lots of money who buy positive PR through "charity," and other insincere ways to virtue signal. Most charities funded by wealthy "philanthropists," never help anyone, they're just tax havens for large chunks of money. Mr. Beast is just the same thing on a smaller scale, and it works for him because of the "he's just like us," illusion he's worked to maintain. And people love him for it. Because we're all susceptible to propaganda.
I remember before this all went down, I was talking to a classmate of mine who really likes Mr. Beast. I was saying “I don’t know, he just gives me bad vibes,” and he went on about “well he helped cure blindness” and “he built a well in Africa”. I responded “Look, I’m sure in real life, Jimmy’s a stand-up guy. But I’ve been on the internet practically my whole life, and I’ve seen seemingly good people who did good deeds on camera turn out to be awful. I’ve learned to be cautious.” Fast forward two months… yeah.
His company not having an HR department absolutely blows my mind. Like, HR exists to protect the reputation of the company. He's actually season 1 Michael Scott
What I don't understand is why people are so shocked about this. I thought we all just assumed the contests were rigged, there was illegal crap going on, and probably poor working conditions. He started his fortune by giving money to people experiencing homelessness, which, while an admirable thing to do, means he's only famous because of the problems capitalism has created. It's unfortunate, but it's not surprising that he's not doing great things behind the scenes
Is it that admirable when you make a huge show and dance of shouting AREN'T I GENEROUS GOLLY GEE I AM GIVING HANDOUTS AND FILMING IT and then you stop your donations to your local hometown food bank once you feel you have nothing else to gain from it?
@@neoqwerty Sorry, I should have been more specific. I meant giving money to people experiencing homelessness is admirable. I haven't seen Mr Beast's videos of it specifically, but I agree when people film themselves doing it and make it a whole thing it can get really icky really fast. It's still definitely helping the people getting the money, but it could absolutely be done is a much less "look at me I'm so cool and generous look at me" sort of way and be equally effective
Shocked? Absolutely not. But, I don't think anyone expected it to be quite this bad, on so many different levels. And DogPack's part 3 is yet to come out. Man's basically speedrunning his YT gig into Disney-level of dehumanizing corruption and capitalist greed.
I want to comment on the "why people are shocked" part because that's personally my main issue with these types of youtubers. I've been telling my kids for years that much of the stuff Mr. Beast is doing is fake. He's not giving away all his money and actually losing money (he has said that many times). But my kids believe it. I had no proof before. They take their birthday money and buy his disgusting chocolate and merchandise. They genuinely think he's an amazing person and everything is true. Mr Beast's audience is primarily children. He's making money by lying to children. Sure, some adults can see a lot of his statements and videos are fake, but it's much harder for kids. Now that all this has come out, I see he's much worse than just a capitalistic liar. He was (at minimum) aware of TERRIBLE things in his company. So I've explained to my kids what is going on and that they can't watch his videos, buy his merchandise, or support him in any way. I'm really hoping other parents do the same. He has manipulated our children long enough, and he'll see the dollar signs leaving when children stop watching him.
Advice to younger, new to the working world folk....If an employer says "we are like a family here" run, RUN FAST AND DON'T LOOK BACK! What they don't say is that "family" is way less Brady Bunch and far more Jerry Springer dynamics.... Nothing wholesome, loving or kind. All disfunction and toxic power dynamics with a splash of emotional manipulation/gaslighting.
Ive been watching bo jack, insane that they touch on feminism only being upheld when a man speaks up. Its so gross, and that show covered it so nicely, as do you! Your video essays give me life, I love that you use your voice for nuanced subjects. Love your videos!!
I still need to watch Bo Jack! It's spot on though, and it's frustrating we're still here but honestly I'm glad people, especially guys, are speaking out now to give this more legitimacy
@BryonyClaire I think you would have a field day if you used it in another video essay! It touches on a lot of stuff that it seems most media shys away from, isn't afraid to touch on triggering or straight up undesirable subject matter. If you ever need some more topics def look into it 😤🙏
Expect Rosanna went to collaborate with mrbeast and expected to earn from it and only then she started to “expose” him, because she personally did not enjoy the result of this collaboration, while there were multiple male RUclipsrs who were exposing mrbeast and did not have any skin in the game at all, never collaborating with mrbeast and never attempting to benefit from him. But you did not hear of them of course, because you don’t watch male RUclipsrs and only complain on sexism 😂 Rosanna did an ok job, but even by this day she simply sits in front of a camera in smart glasses and re-cites messages other people send to her, without conducting wide investigation like Dogpack did
@ivandankob7112 first of all you'll need to provide sources and a timeline if you expect anyone to give you the time of day on thus info. This creator did all of that, so I'm going to go with the info she so generously provided and researched.. secondly, do you even know where you are/what is being discussed? Bo Jack Horesman, the SHOW that I was talking about, covers feminist views only working super well when upheld by men. No amount of you claiming anything about Mr. Beast will change that, this is a huge theme in THE SHOW.
@@BryonyClaire they have been, the support has been lovely, I can foster a safe and inclusive community, and I get to be introduced to wonderful channels like this ❤️
funny seeing you here! honestly you've been a breath of fresh air amongst all the transphobia being flung around. I hope things improve for you in light of all of this.
I watched both of Dogpack's videos and Jake's and honestly, I just see someone who is definitely traumatized and struggling with emotional regulation while being extremely publicly vulnerable, knowing full well he's going up against one of the most powerful content creators on any platform who probably put multiple (metaphorical) targets on his back. I believe him. Mr Beast has shown many times that the concept of empathy eludes him, so why wouldn't he subject someone to literal torture for content?
He's already lawyered up, Legal Eagle has a video about the situation and there's some speculation about a cease and desist or something and the suspected firm is known for being EXTREMELY aggressive. Like, the MOST aggressive
Rosanna Pancino deserves all the people who gave her backlash or saying she played the gender cart on their knees and begging for her forgiveness. As again you see their are no good billionaires (or whatever mister beast is)
Its insane the amount of people that don't know much about him but have a positive idea of him because "oh well he donates to the poor" "he gave someone a car" "he cleans the ocean". But they don't know all the shitty things he does around those. He does just enough to keep his image clean to most people and hopes no one reads into it. He's actually evil and I hope he gets what's coming to him
the amount of commentators I saw saying something along the lines of "he's the good guy, I never saw his videos and actually know nothing about him, BUT HES THE GOOD GUY" :D
@@captaind8728I'm guilty of it. I watched one video of his a while back to see what the hype was and got a positive impression of him. It's tiring having to look into everyone and everything all the time, which is why manipulativea and abusive people are so heartbreaking. You want to believe people are good and give the benefit of the doubt but we keep being let down
@@lilmorsecody absolutely. You can never 100% blame people in that position cuz you're right, it's manipulative and abusive. Its really unfortunate that we have to keep up such a guard and really vet people like him before making an opinion
While I am usually the first person to call random RUclips accusation videos sus, It always amazes me that there are still people out there over the age of 20 who believe that someone even can get that rich and famous without some kind of exploitation of others. It is literally the basis of Capitalism, people.
The people who have been criticizing him for years about his exploitation and sexism are finally vindicated. Sucks how much hate Rosanna has gotten since she came forward about the games being rigged, obviously none of us know any of these interner personalities personally but she seems like she's always been a very genuine and kind person.
It's really easy to _"obsessive"_ about one's work when they're the boss and other people are doing the grunt work. I'm so sick of this Jeff Bezos attitude where we're all supposed to be equally invested in his dream. I'd like him to work as an entry level employee to a competitor's business for one week, see if they improve at all about this attitude that everyone must be equally energized.
Absolutely, was thinking the same during the video. Easy to be obsessive and give all your time to your job when it's about making you a millionaire and fulfilling your childish dreams of owning "the biggest company in the world" (he says that in his handbook). Why should I, a common employee put in all my time and energy into helping you become a millionaire? The entitlement of these men is amazing
@@sofiipote7 For the hope of getting a chance to eventually get a million dollars from him of course, that's why so many low pay employees stuck around for so long. They see other employees getting the occasional big fat suitcase full of dollar bills, and they're just "waiting their turn" as they chump away doing the dirty work for a mediocre salary.
mr beast has always come off as extremely untrustworthy and suspicious to me. ever since i first heard about him, i’ve been deeply unsettled in a way i don’t feel with many people, to the point where i avoid his content like the plague purely because of the visceral discomfort i feel. i’ve never been vocal about it, but the dude is scary, and i cannot understate just how unsurprised i am about these allegations. “no doesn’t mean no”? seriously, what the fuck?
Same thing happened to me, I heard about him and I think I saw some of his early content, but I always felt that there was something off there. Like some kind of staged persona, not sure how to explain it in English (not my 1st language lol) but you know... a weird feeling. Now I get it, and sadly, does not surprise me.
We might not see a direct drop-off in subscription numbers, but I think it helps that some of this stuff will show up on a Google search. Advertising agencies will see it as a risk, places that would let him film there might have someone on staff around to point out that they don’t want to be associated with him. It may not be enough to destroy him, but his career will take a turn after this. Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll have a full on Elon tantrum and throw himself in the trash for us.
So it was Adam McIntyre reacting to Rosanna reading the handbook that sent me down this whole rabbit hole. This is insanity, and yet seems like a Tuesday. 🤑
3:20 It shouldn't escape anyone's attention that the thing to make the MrBeast dam break was the fact the "RUclips Commentary Community" taking the chance to be very transphobic and leaping on the chance to pull a "protect the kids" line, despite many of them falling on their swords for DrDisrespect.
Which is honestly why I don't trust anyone who suddenly criticised Mr Beast is bad and got their start from discussing Kris Tyson (and making it as if Tyson being a creep is the big issue) Even without Kris in the pic, Jimmy is still not a great person and we mustn't act like he was ever "innocent".
@@notrod5341 I mean, there were people criticizing him for how obviously exploitative his turning of poverty into a game show was, but viewer apathy won out until a culture war prompt activated the commentariat. It’s actually kind of depressing. People just don’t care. There being entertained and they will make any rationalization for it.
I cannot describe how how for years upon years since I was in middleschool as someone that grew up in Greenville, how relieving it was to hear that yes, as a black woman, I have people that agree with me after being told by most boys in my area that Mr beast was the best thing ever for "giving back to the community" like we all didn't. Another example of this type of dynamic is Tyler Perry and the experience some actresses faced with being potentially blacklisted for not agreeing with him
2:54 Mr Beast has always been so weird to me cuz his whole RUclips formula is like “I pay the medical bills of random disabled person” or “I spend the day picking up trash” and he makes **soooo** much money off the views/ads alone on each video, he could pay to have those same actions done again multiple times over
Or he could pay to create funds/investments that go toward helping *many* people get medical care, glasses, etc. He could set up funds to equip volunteer workers to clean up litter regularly. He could set up investments, if he wanted to do good, to fund impoverished children's education so that they'd have better chances of escaping poverty. And he could set up investment funds so that the proceeds would go to providing food, supplies, and clean water to deeply impoverished nations to make people's quality of life better. But he doesn't, because those would be quiet actions that wouldn't garner the same amount of fame, appreciation, and income. He chooses to do flashy things on purpose, and the purpose of them is not genuinely to help others, but to help Mr. Beast while exploiting the people he's ostensibly helping. His game shows and short-term gifts of large amounts of money do not help most people in the long-term.
Rosanna been saying this for a while, she's a big ytber and been working with Mr beast so she definitely knows more than normal viewers, yet people dismissed her and send SO MUCH hate to her. It only took a MAN to exposed him that the masses started to be "dangg how could no one ever said something about this" or "I could never imagine Mr beast could be like that" etc. It's rly disheartening to see people will always dismissed and ignored women's truth and told them that they're "crazy" for thinking like that but only started to listen if a man finally spoke out. Seems like times rly doesn't change that much since the past in terms of ignoring women
Great work Bryony! The boys club thing is so real (felt this in almost every workplace I've been in.) I also think it's so much more interesting to look at these situations through a broader cultural lens rather than just finding the new 'bad person' and taking them down - Thoroughly enjoyed the wider ideas you've teased out of this 👏🏻
a caveat to the subscriber count- someone pointed out that a lot of his audience is children who don't have the capacity to understand this information, if they even come across it. i really believe that he would've seen something of an impact if this wasn't the case
I also pointed this out before I saw your comment. And not only might children not know, but they likely won't believe it if they did know. They'd assume Mr. Beast is a great guy and may even see him as a friend. Worse, their parents may not know about it, or may not be monitoring what their children are watching, so the parents also aren't going to unsubscribe. Meanwhile, Mr. Beast exploits the kids who watch his videos by convincing them to like and subscribe in hopes of winning a giveaway or a chance to be part of his show. In reality he rarely gives gifts to subscribers (and when he does, he changes the rules multiple times) and mostly does his game shows with employees and friends, meaning the kids in his audience are vanishingly unlikely to ever appear on his shows.
So fun! Little work story about working at Amazon. When I was 18 going into 19 I worked at Amazon. I was one of the people who stood for 10 hours and packed boxes. And in that time I would wear a lot of like fandom t-shirts. Your typical Walmart v-neck type. And one of these shirts I had was a gray Hogwarts Crest v-neck. This was before I knew that JK Rowling was terrible. And there was a guy who worked behind me who hit on me. This dude was at least old enough to be my dad. Probably and then some and I told him repeatedly that I did not like that and after the third or fourth time of this happening and me telling him no. I went to HR because at 18 years old I thought hr's job was to make work a safer place. I ended up getting set home with a strike against me over dress code because my shirt was inappropriate... A shirt I had worn to this job three other times.
No way! Oh my gosh. I'm really sorry they mistreated you like that, not only with the dude being inappropriate but HR being completely useless AND blaming you
i used to wonder about how people with illnesses/ medical conditions get treated on set bc the conditions there (even in videos) seem very unsafe and inaccessible to a lot of folks but hadn't been able to find people talking about their experience before. I'm glad people are speaking up about it now. Regardless I've blocked him since finding out he's an el*n m*sk supporter, hope more people would do the same
I blocked him because he's friends with Logan Paul, and even without Dollarama Obadiah Stane over there being the Xitter Karen, anyone being friends with Logan Paul is an asshole at BEST.
I’m hoping that the next phase of the internet is to stop with the hero worship. We all have favs but people can’t use their clout anymore to pass off criticisms. A lot of people got hurt because criticisms of him always just got brushed aside instead of being reckoned with.
You know, I've never really cared for Mr Beast. Before all this shit happened, there was no real reason for me to dislike his content other than I just didn't vibe with it. Now I'm not going to say I knew something was up or anything like that, bc I didn't know, but I do think it's funny that I've never really cared for him and I find out that he's actually not a great person. Lol Edit: Correction: Based on what I've heard from other YTers, I've always thought his content was exploitative, but I did try to rationalize that at least he was giving to charity. Point is, his content has always rubbed me the wrong way. This implosion feels very vindicating.
I've never watched Mr beast either because I'm not a child lol but also only from comments about his videos I could tell he was exploiting people who were poor, disabled, etc., for clicks while pretending to be charitable. I also heard him once talking about his videos and he sounded 100% like a businessman. You could tell he only cared about views and he had developed a system to get them. Conclusion, the allegations weren't really that surprising, although I am impressed with how much sh*t he had hidden under the rug
Ive never watched a single video of his, have never understood the attraction. His smarmy smile and vibe just icked and then the bigger it got the worse it got. I find myself unsurprised
I remember plenty of people on places like reddit and twitter talking about their experiences with Mr Beast hosting these competitions in their hometowns, a lot of which were quite negative. Of course, you can't blindly believe what people say online, but what was interesting was a lot of Mr Beast fans were saying really nasty things to these people. Nothing related to the actual discussion about Mr Beast possibly being disrespectful to these town spaces, but more interested in saying things like "even if he did, who cares"
@@OmenFromBel0w Haha! I know what you mean. I read a book (note for possible gender essentialism) about how capitalism was created and I hadn't realised it was so literal with the 3 centuries of witch trials across europe (then exported to foreign lands as a tool of capitalist expansion beyond the borders into foreign lands, aka colonialism), for one. The establishment of capitalism was made possible because of these 3 centuries of witch trials. Sylvia Federici, Caliban & The Witch!
I only heard of this guy recently. I'm an old Gen X-er, but I also used to work in the entertainment industry. Mistrestment is the norm. There's a reason why performers and crew members join unions. Exploitation and endangerment in the workplace is real. (Look at what happened on the non-union crew set of "Rust". 😔) 🤑
He tried to get non-union people and when he didn't get enough, he hired union for the Las Vegas beast games BS and then refused them their benefits. I don't remember who he ticked off but they're BIG and all the way up to Canada, and they've literally said they'd kick anyone out of the union if they ever worked with Mr Beast in an internal message. Mr Beast is so bad that at least one union with a Canadian branch has banned EVER working with him for any reasons because he's a POS.
thanks for talking about this and especially from this angle!! i love all your work and have been watching all your content for a bit now, but i still forget to comment too often (i'll try to remember better + 🤑)
I mean that was obviously just a stunt to gain subscribers he is however a fan of Elon who has done and continues to do far far worse. As for why people are shocked well basically this narrative that he's "not like those other rich people" which was always a load of shit.
This is the first video im watching on the mr.beast issue, and honestly, i thought the same. No justice will happen cause we worship people.... yikes😑. Thanks for speaking out about this though quite rationally and careful💖
As someone who’s worked in the non-profit sector before I always got bad vibes - reminded me of some of the people I had to deal with. Using “charity” as a mask for pushing their own agendas, or worse to hide their wrongdoings. I’m really sad to hear how bad it’s been 😞
For me it was when disabled people sharing their concerns and explaining how he could’ve actually supported disabled people instead of the performative exploitative “I cured x blind and D/deaf people. And how quickly people were to dismiss and harass them for eg. educating people that cochlear implants aren’t a perfect, one-fit-all solution. And the ‘he saved their life’ comments as if blind and D/deaf people cannot live normal fulfilling lives and be disabled.
There was also a commentary video I saw that showed part of a Mr. Beast video where a person who was getting older/maybe already elderly or retirement age needed the surgery to return to work to support his (impoverished) family. Now I'm not minimizing the fact that the guy got help and was able to go back to work and keep his family going as a result, but as wealthy as Mr. Beast was, he couldn't, I don't know, set up an emergency fund for them in case anything else went wrong? An education fund for the guy's kids? Something to help the guy feel at ease that his family would be OK no matter what, even if he genuinely wanted to work and not retire? Because yeah, the ability to work meant the guy's family wouldn't starve, for now, but imagine if they had gotten some kind of help, such as an investment or savings account, that would actually have helped them escape poverty over time so the man could someday retire. But no, because Mr. Beast wanted to pretend to be Jesus for RUclips views and likes--and of course the cold hard cash that came along with it. I may have the details wrong somewhat because I did not personally watch the video on Mr. Beast's channel, but the commentary was right to call him out on only offering surgery while the man and his family were still impoverished, and hundreds and thousands of people suffer vision impairment that could be helped by funding vision checks and glasses, etc. But donating funds to a charity that provides vision care and glasses isn't as entertaining as picking one guy who looks appropriately miserable to help out so that Mr. Beast can look saintly in comparison. I'm not a Mr. Beast fan, haven't ever watched his videos. The only thing I knew about him before all this blew up was that he was some famous RUclipsr well known to exploit impoverished people.
It really helped me with the sounds and VIBRATIONS from the construction site (making land from water) next door to imagine them as music and Trolls' dancing, arguing, a robot showing up... anything you like that fits. It gives a reasons to the sounds and distracts your brain. Helps with falling asleep. Didn't mind the sounds on the soundtrack, did not even notice them.
I agree, i have a sports arena operating outside my bedroom window for a year, 4 nights a week of volleyball tournaments, 30-50 loud, aggressive people playing and yelling. They even have a refreshment stand with a serving window for food, beverages and alcohol. It he'll but her voice is soothing. I'm pretty sure it's an underground volleyball gambling ring and that's why no one will remove them from our residential neighborhood 😢 looks like they know someone 💰💰💰💰
Mr beast has always rubbed me the wrong way... and yep, 45 here and can confirm the slime workplace crap. Got taken off the schedule/effectively fired when I declined "going home" with the manager... then my paycheck was missing $100 he said it was because my drawer was short... so I had to go in and bring up that I know the law in our state, what he did was illegal (in multiple ways) and the least he can do is give me my damn money. There's so much more.. stalking... a different manager lifted my shirt up when he came in drunk off the clock. Etc etc. Bartender/server for 20+ years. I wholeheartedly believe too many experiences made my ptsd even worse. What's really sad and infuriating is that I had so much internalized misogyny and trauma, I didn't know I could or how to speak up most of the time... fear of losing job, since I'd been there before (1st story I told happened in my mid 20s)... so that some damage. Eta because I forgot 🤑
fucking hilarious how it only takes one BIG freakout for people to actually start looking at the cracks in this operation, and in the rich very capitalist guy's oh so squeaky clean image. it honestly makes me mad.
after Rosanna came out about everything, I remember that they wanted to have a call with her (they were already emailing which was working for everyone) she knew damn well they were going to record the call (& other creators agreed he def would). i saw someone post an article about how they trashed an island for a video and only responded to local fishermen (who were cleaning up after them) when they were talking about it online. I knew for sure there would be layers to this that would come out eventually. There's too many people involved. i certainly didnt expect war crimes, though X_X i didnt expect people to NOT call him "dramatic" for explicitly saying "war crimes," but i guess thats the difference, aint it the truth sounds "dramtic" as a woman (even a white woman with a good rep) and being emotional with the details is "speaking truth to power" or whatever as a man. godddddddd he went through horrible, traumatizing shit, but the difference in response is baffling :/ I've unsubed from a LOT of people who werent taking Rosanna seriously, but jumped at attention for this guy like wtf??? (Sorry if any of this is incomprehensible, I am SO sick rn and my sister tested positive for covid for the second time and we're both immunocompirmised and i havent had a fever since a was in single didgets so im just hanging on lolllll dont f around w/ covid if youre in the US midwest, itll kick your ass X_X)
To be clear, If Jake is faking he should quit standup to be an actor. The level of true raw emotion he displayed is either completely sincere (i think so) or Jake should be in Oscar contention within the next few years.
Four minutes into the video and I just wanted to say: I didn't come here for Mr Beast content, I came here because your videos are consistently excellent
(puts a tinfoil hat on) Mr. Beast seemingly didn't lose subscribers because youtube digitally manipulates his stats (views and subscribers count) because he brings them so much money in ads revenue.
More likely it's just because most of his viewers are kids, whose parents aren't regulating what they watch and/or don't know what's been going on with Mr.Beast. Most of them either don't know anything about what's been going on, don't care, or don't believe it because they think Mr. Beast is their friend and a great guy. The fact that most of his viewers are kids also makes his fake giveaway videos all the more exploitative, because those kids genuinely believe that if they like and subscribe they might have a chance to win something. In truth the gifts mostly go to Mr. Beast's friends and employees.
🤑 So glad to see this guy getting called out, even if it'll go nowhere. I've never liked him due to his exploitative videos, dude is a pure capitalist through and through who only does things to make more cash. People constantly saying he's generous and a philanthropist are drinking the juice; he won't do anything without assessing if it'll make him money first. If he was a true philanthropist he wouldn't be sticking cameras in peoples faces and asking them to peform like a dancing monkey and "be grateful" to the camera. And they're always things that don't actually impact people in useful ways. Giving a guy a million but he HAS to spent it all in 24hrs? Giving a homeless guy a lambo? Like wtf lmao. His stuff just always seems extremely exploitative and ableist. I think there are ways to film generous actions, but it's a fine line, and it shouldn't include exploiting the person you're aiding. I'm thinking of the folk that clean vulenerable peoples houses for free, or do their yard (people like Midwest Magic). They clean a house with no caveats, but ask to record their cleaning process. There's no filming the people, no forcing them to sob gratefully at the camera, and no stupid caveats like "CLEANING A HOUSE WITH ONLY 10 TRASH BAGS!!!!!"
Disappointed that it took so long for people to finally realize how sketchy Mr. Beast is and how horribly he runs his company. (Also, love TiffanyFerg and The Kavernacle!)
Isn't it crazy how Rosanna is always being real and honest about these kinds of situations WAY before they blow up and people just continue to choose to ingore her?
Interesting enough, I'm older (ish, i guess, almost 40) and all of the people my age or older saw his video for exactly what they were, pure exploitation. No one else listened, but turns out he was exactly what we saw he was.
This is why I love the phrase "immoral amounts of money" because, $1,000,000 or above is more than any human needs and most likely came from the exploitation of someone else.
Considering the cost of living in some places results in regular houses being over $1,000,000, and the cost of retirement for most people is edging up over the $1,000,000 mark, I think you are lowballing it. Maybe, like myself, you live in an area with relatively low cost of living and you just aren't aware of how little money $1M actually is. Even then, I'm sure that if your area is like mine, home prices and rent prices have pretty much doubled from their pre-2020 values, not to mention the rising costs of groceries and utilities. $1M doesn't go nearly as far as you might want, especially if you're supporting a family. My thought on the matter is that people should certainly be able to become wealthy, but no one should be a billionaire, and probably nobody should have $100M+. Once you have enough for a home and to retire on comfortably, the rest is mostly greed. Companies should be putting money back into their base-level workers, limit the percentage of revenue that can be directed toward the top-ranking executives, and anything that doesn't go to salaries should go to improving the company--its offices and equipment, any innovations or work that it focuses on, etc.--and, if the company doesn't need equipment or office upgrades and can't or doesn't wish to innovate in its services/products, the last bit should go either tax or local charities of the sort that distribute wealth to the purposes and people in the community who need it. My idea will never be implemented, of course. AI will have all our jobs before my thoughts would even be relevant.
I only heard about any of this extremely recently, but I honestly hadn’t liked him for years. The whole “make content showing off him throwing money around” kind of struck me as gross and exploitative. Also he’s friends with Gary Vee
I remember Philosophy tube did a good breakdown of the problematic nature that Mr Beast uses for his altruism. That at its core he would only ever put bandaids on the problems and only ever attack the symptoms instead of actually dealing with the root cause because that root cause is exactly what is making him money. Now the video doesn’t really put the blame on Mr Beast, and is more about the altruistic entrepreneur as a whole, but it really got to what irked me about Mr Beast’s kindness. Sure team trees put down a bunch of trees, but if those were all the exact same type of tree you just created a monoculture that will die when the next blight comes through. Sure team seas took out a bunch of plastic, but that just got sent to a landfill which will ultimately end up back in the ocean, and it doesn’t stop new plastic from entering the water at all. Sure he gave Blind and Deaf people sight and hearing, but that’s not cutting a the systemic problems the Blind and Deaf communities are dealing with at all. None of his altruism actually does anything. Yes a handful of people are better off now than before, but that’s only a fraction of the people that are dealing with this problem, and Mr Beast will never deal with the root cause because it makes him money to not do that. Everything he does isn’t to do good, or actually have a positive impact on the world, but to make him money and give him praise. It’s why everything is a gameshow, a challenge, or a social experiment because that makes him money. The moment he did a squid game challenge I instantly knew his character because only a specific type of person looks at that show and goes “oh let’s totally do this!” Glad to see my gut reaction of this guy was right. Shame too since I was starting to come around to him since he was actively supporting Ava in her transition and defending her against transphobes. He was actively showing he was an ally to us trans people. Shame that’s also a blight on our community now too, and one that will probably have longer lasting effects compared to all the shit Mr Beast is going through.
🤑🤑🤑 Your video was the first and probably the only one I'll watch about MrBeast, and it seems like a nightmare to work for/with an asshole like that. Also thank you for showing the clip of Devil wears Prada - I'm tired of seeing people praise the kind of work environment, as if it wasn't toxic af and sth we should get rid of, it's not middle ages anymore. I wish more people saw that for what it is, not something to strive for, bc you want to be THAT person, you want to be the big shot that treats people "beneath" you like trash. I myself worked for a big fish in a little pond, and it's AWFUL. You get paranoid, knowing about all the connections and what standing up to them means to you.
🤑 Honestly, I don't even remember ever getting him in my feed, but I have heard of him still, and seen Tiffany Fergusons video. That "no doesn't mean no" shit is crazy. It's just sad that men has to speak up before something is taken remotely seriously:/
Being a man, it was Rosanna which showed much about this guy, I support her, I support women like you, not American myself but it seems like this jimmy guy is no good, you will not get hate from me, nope, where I am from (same as his current gf) we treat each other with respect... no, I respect and appreciate your take on this situation, I do
I've been seeing pro-Ava/Beast bots posting spam on channels, I donated a ton of my time today reporting every single one on huge channels like Legal Eagle. I hope you don't have to deal with that here. Nice to hear you mention Kavernacle. You 2 are both faves of mine, I'd love to see you talk to each other. I have so many of your videos on my Watch list, & I fan girled seeing you on a comment section in the wild, maybe Tee Noir? It was a while ago. I can't wait to get to a good place in therapy so I can watch more of your videos; you hit close to my chronically ill bones so I have a bunch of them I'm going to binge as soon as I can. See you as soon as I learn change + grow. 🤑🤢
It's optimistic to think that way, but then we have so many people with generational wealth that the more likely result is that he has kids who end up richer than he is and end up super entitled because they can't comprehend why everyone else can't just pay for personal trainers and chefs.
@@brassbuckles Not optimistic at all. Unfortunately, some Empires might take several human lifetimes before they fall. And, yes, it's horrible for the people under it. Mr Beast will probably go waaay before that. He's like the crypto bros who have lost their butts in the currency. Plus LOTS of RUclipsrs have risen and fell within 10-20 years. He's not the same caliber as a Rockefeller.
I recently found your channel and just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos and the feminist lens you apply to issues! Even though you could argue that Mr Beast has helped certain people, I've never quite trusted him - cameras shouldn't have to be filming each and every time you 'help' someone🤑
There's phony then there's systemic issues with terrible work practices and beliefs which hurt people. Phony I can tolerate as it can be harmless, but these other accusations? 👀
Cue the comments calling everyone haters and jealous for talking about this situation... which seems like it is about to get worse
Wowie, first reply in a pinned comment?!?
saying someone is jealous is just a terrible rebuttal.. I mean yeah of course we're jealous. I wish I was rich and was paid 100milion to make a TV show.
I'm not jealous or a hater, I just wish you made this video far earlier and didn't wait until it was socially acceptable to make a video noting Mr Beast's obvious flaws
hm
Mr Beast was problematic right from the start.
Having “no doesn’t mean no” in an employee handbook is comically evil. How do you use a phrase from r*pe culture and think you’re the good guy.
That he's delusional enough himself isn't that shocking to me, but how so many people willingly ignore these red flags to defend a multimillionaire who'll never care about them is, when it's this cartoonishly villainous
Fr!!!
The only thing the can be true is yes can mean no because some people are too timid to say their own opinion and go with the crowd or are victims of a abuser but not the opposite
The doc read as his unflitered thoughts ngl. It’s obviously too long but it reads like he wrote it in a day and just kept going on and on. I wonder what he took out or didn’t put in the doc
Im afraid to ask..what is rape culture and why is it popular enough that it's called a culture?💀
It's crazy that Rosanna was one of the first creators to reveal her bad experiences with Mr. Beast and people dismissed her bc "she was playing the gender card" because she was... sharing how she felt she was mistreated as a woman😑
Exactly, and now she's someone that people who have been in his videos or worked for the company feel safe to come to because she has been one of the few who has spoken candidly about their experience. Took such a long time for guys to speak out
It's as disappointing as it is utterly predictable
It took DogPack for people to take it seriously
People are STILL dismissing her and those who believe her. So frustrating!
@@Dave102693yep, a MAN
i really hope rosanna pancino gets her flowers bc she was talking about mr beast way before some people and she had to retract her version of what SHE LIVED bc of backlash
I feel like she's starting to get recognised, in Jake Weddle's latest video he calls her out as someone who is "doing the lord's work" or a similar phrase, which is good to see. Sadly misogyny still rules the internet, but she played a hugely important role (and still is playing one) in this huge situation, as she's one of the few trusted people that folks who have been in his videos or worked with him feel safe to approach, though yet again, that burden is falling on a woman
i mentioned the situation to someone who hadn't known anything about it, and when i mentioned rosanna (we both loved nerdy nummies growing up btw) she said "yeah but isn't she lying? i think she's just going crazy" 😭😭😭 people really will call you crazy for being a victim 💔
Why have they tried to recreate a real world squid games TWICE? That show is about the tragedy of those without money being desperate enough to endure cruel and inhumane conditions for a shot at something better and how there are the morally repugnant wealthy people who not only get rich off the suffering of the lower class but actively enjoy facilitating and watching their humiliation. Both Netflix execs and Mr. Beast/Amazon thought ABSOLUTELY YES let's do that for real. It's not remotely surprising the horrifying reports that came out of both sets. It really takes a special kind of disconnected billionaire to host a squid games and place yourself as one of the rich naked creeps in animals masks laughing from behind the cameras.
Literally this!
The way people defended those games and acted like being critical of them was "too online" or whatever because it was for charity really pissed me off. The ends don't always justify the means.
I'm pretty sure Hwang Dong-hyuk (original writer and director of squid game) is having Hideo Kojima-moment and screaming to a pillow right about now.
He creates a dystopia drama that most Koreans and rest of the world can relate, and then some "golden boy" of youtube creates it for real, abuses and neglects their contestants and gets away with it!
mr beast actually copied sam Hyde anyway. this wasn't even his original idea. sam Hyde has been talking about hell house and fish tank for over a decade and then Mr beast sees it and copies it and makes it worse
It's absolutely wild. Where any normal person would say "How horrific," he said "What a great idea." Evil seems like an appropriate word to describe him.
His stuff has always reminded me of the wildly unethical studies done by psychologists in the 70’s. The gamification of philanthropy is disgusting.
He's giving Zimbardo a run for his money, for sure
You look like you need one.
A psych study? Don’t worry babes, I’ve got a degree in it so I’ve run plenty of them already 🥰 (and I didn’t cause any ethics violations in the process 💫 )
@@esther8138 Yet some guy with a RUclips channel has made more in his life than you?
So you agree? that his videos are ethically unsound? 🥰
Also you don’t know me or mr beast to be making comments like that my friend xx
"He hasn't done anything illegal."
I'm not sure if the people know this, but depriving someone of sleep is a war crime, worthy of... a life sentence, if i'm remembering correctly.
As far as I know when it comes to US law, that only is applicable to POW, or prisoners, which Jake Weddle wasn't, he was an employee (doesn't make it ok, it's more that US law is weird). I don't know if he's going down the legal route here, but I'm sure that Legal Eagle will be coming out with another video of other allegations, if/when more come out and will cover the legalities
@@BryonyClaireyou're right! that's the same here in the UK. It would just be treated as abuse legally
Tear gas used by police is also a war crime.
But police get a pass because they are not at "war".
@@BryonyClaire legal bytes made a good video about it.
Hasn’t he also broken several lottery laws as well?

Also both Tyra Banks and my abuela always told me never to trust anyone who smiles with their teeth if it doesn’t reach their eyes.
@@KetaminogueIronic cause Tyra Banks is/was abusive too😢
@@lilmorsecody I would die for a video about Tyra, she's kind if an anti feminist monster.
One second Rossana was "dramatic" and now it's all about how terrible mr beast has treated everyone including women. Makes you doubt if they actually care about how the "boy's club" treats women and more about taking down someone.
That's the issue, I feel, because "women are too emotional" women who come forward get swept aside, but now that bro's are talking about their experiences, it's being taken as a valid issue (as I talked about in this). I don't know if it's all about taking "someone down", or just the fact they've come to the realization that, no, actually, it's not worth keeping your negative experience to yourself and seeing the cycle keep going and having others get hurt because you didn't speak up - if that makes sense?
@@BryonyClaire oh definitely, I have nothing against the people who have come forward with their experience, I'm thinking more about the RUclipsrs that defended mr beast. Many of those RUclipsrs apology to Rosanna felt more like an after thought they "had to cover" in order to add to mr beasts wrong doings.
There have been multiple people, male and female, who spoke out over time. Gender has nothing to do with it, it's just that now there is both enough and widespread enough info for it to bubble over.
@@orionstokesweiss2344Gender absolutely has something to do with it. When she first spoke out people shaped it as her playing the gender card and harassed her to the point where she retracted her statement.
@Slayy05a The "anti-woke" stuff is literally just recycled mid 2000s anti-SJW misogynistic bros rethoric, it's not new, it just broke its LiveJournal and 4/7/8chan containment.
I remember people criticizing his antics and people kept being like he’s helping people tho.🙄
People will still be saying that now, guaranteed!
Society doesn't understand that people (especially celebrities) aren't either absolute demons or perfect angels. They can do clearly good things (giving money to people experiencing homelessness, cleaning up the environment, giving blind people surgery so they can see, etc) and also do really terrible things (awful business practices, treating workers poorly, abusing audience trust, etc). People can do bad things and still be a net positive, or vice versa
@@VictorianWaistcoat and they can be horrible people with lots of money who buy positive PR through "charity," and other insincere ways to virtue signal.
Most charities funded by wealthy "philanthropists," never help anyone, they're just tax havens for large chunks of money.
Mr. Beast is just the same thing on a smaller scale, and it works for him because of the "he's just like us," illusion he's worked to maintain. And people love him for it. Because we're all susceptible to propaganda.
Yep. It’s wild how much humans desire a “benevolent king figure” and then they’ll defend them to death.
I remember before this all went down, I was talking to a classmate of mine who really likes Mr. Beast. I was saying “I don’t know, he just gives me bad vibes,” and he went on about “well he helped cure blindness” and “he built a well in Africa”. I responded “Look, I’m sure in real life, Jimmy’s a stand-up guy. But I’ve been on the internet practically my whole life, and I’ve seen seemingly good people who did good deeds on camera turn out to be awful. I’ve learned to be cautious.”
Fast forward two months… yeah.
His company not having an HR department absolutely blows my mind. Like, HR exists to protect the reputation of the company. He's actually season 1 Michael Scott
There was a HR department, his mother was in charge of it
What I don't understand is why people are so shocked about this. I thought we all just assumed the contests were rigged, there was illegal crap going on, and probably poor working conditions. He started his fortune by giving money to people experiencing homelessness, which, while an admirable thing to do, means he's only famous because of the problems capitalism has created. It's unfortunate, but it's not surprising that he's not doing great things behind the scenes
Is it that admirable when you make a huge show and dance of shouting AREN'T I GENEROUS GOLLY GEE I AM GIVING HANDOUTS AND FILMING IT and then you stop your donations to your local hometown food bank once you feel you have nothing else to gain from it?
@@neoqwerty Sorry, I should have been more specific. I meant giving money to people experiencing homelessness is admirable. I haven't seen Mr Beast's videos of it specifically, but I agree when people film themselves doing it and make it a whole thing it can get really icky really fast. It's still definitely helping the people getting the money, but it could absolutely be done is a much less "look at me I'm so cool and generous look at me" sort of way and be equally effective
Shocked? Absolutely not. But, I don't think anyone expected it to be quite this bad, on so many different levels. And DogPack's part 3 is yet to come out. Man's basically speedrunning his YT gig into Disney-level of dehumanizing corruption and capitalist greed.
I want to comment on the "why people are shocked" part because that's personally my main issue with these types of youtubers. I've been telling my kids for years that much of the stuff Mr. Beast is doing is fake. He's not giving away all his money and actually losing money (he has said that many times). But my kids believe it. I had no proof before. They take their birthday money and buy his disgusting chocolate and merchandise. They genuinely think he's an amazing person and everything is true.
Mr Beast's audience is primarily children. He's making money by lying to children. Sure, some adults can see a lot of his statements and videos are fake, but it's much harder for kids.
Now that all this has come out, I see he's much worse than just a capitalistic liar. He was (at minimum) aware of TERRIBLE things in his company. So I've explained to my kids what is going on and that they can't watch his videos, buy his merchandise, or support him in any way.
I'm really hoping other parents do the same. He has manipulated our children long enough, and he'll see the dollar signs leaving when children stop watching him.
🤑
Advice to younger, new to the working world folk....If an employer says "we are like a family here" run, RUN FAST AND DON'T LOOK BACK! What they don't say is that "family" is way less Brady Bunch and far more Jerry Springer dynamics.... Nothing wholesome, loving or kind. All disfunction and toxic power dynamics with a splash of emotional manipulation/gaslighting.
Ive been watching bo jack, insane that they touch on feminism only being upheld when a man speaks up. Its so gross, and that show covered it so nicely, as do you! Your video essays give me life, I love that you use your voice for nuanced subjects. Love your videos!!
I still need to watch Bo Jack! It's spot on though, and it's frustrating we're still here but honestly I'm glad people, especially guys, are speaking out now to give this more legitimacy
Thisss, women's truth lots of times goes ignored and dismissed, seems like society doesn't change that much since the past
@BryonyClaire I think you would have a field day if you used it in another video essay! It touches on a lot of stuff that it seems most media shys away from, isn't afraid to touch on triggering or straight up undesirable subject matter. If you ever need some more topics def look into it 😤🙏
Expect Rosanna went to collaborate with mrbeast and expected to earn from it and only then she started to “expose” him, because she personally did not enjoy the result of this collaboration, while there were multiple male RUclipsrs who were exposing mrbeast and did not have any skin in the game at all, never collaborating with mrbeast and never attempting to benefit from him. But you did not hear of them of course, because you don’t watch male RUclipsrs and only complain on sexism 😂
Rosanna did an ok job, but even by this day she simply sits in front of a camera in smart glasses and re-cites messages other people send to her, without conducting wide investigation like Dogpack did
@ivandankob7112 first of all you'll need to provide sources and a timeline if you expect anyone to give you the time of day on thus info. This creator did all of that, so I'm going to go with the info she so generously provided and researched.. secondly, do you even know where you are/what is being discussed? Bo Jack Horesman, the SHOW that I was talking about, covers feminist views only working super well when upheld by men. No amount of you claiming anything about Mr. Beast will change that, this is a huge theme in THE SHOW.
This video rocks!!! Amazing commentary! On the money!! UNIONS KICK ASS! subbed to this channel so fast.
I hope things get much better for you going forward 🤍
@@BryonyClaire they have been, the support has been lovely, I can foster a safe and inclusive community, and I get to be introduced to wonderful channels like this ❤️
funny seeing you here! honestly you've been a breath of fresh air amongst all the transphobia being flung around. I hope things improve for you in light of all of this.
I watched both of Dogpack's videos and Jake's and honestly, I just see someone who is definitely traumatized and struggling with emotional regulation while being extremely publicly vulnerable, knowing full well he's going up against one of the most powerful content creators on any platform who probably put multiple (metaphorical) targets on his back. I believe him. Mr Beast has shown many times that the concept of empathy eludes him, so why wouldn't he subject someone to literal torture for content?
He has a lot to lose by lying so it would be stupid to do so.
honestly the whole beast games thing is terrifying
Perfect name for it
He's already lawyered up, Legal Eagle has a video about the situation and there's some speculation about a cease and desist or something and the suspected firm is known for being EXTREMELY aggressive. Like, the MOST aggressive
Rosanna Pancino deserves all the people who gave her backlash or saying she played the gender cart on their knees and begging for her forgiveness.
As again you see their are no good billionaires (or whatever mister beast is)
She really doesn’t. Stop idolizing her. Neither of them are good. Mr Beast is terrible but Rossana is not an innocent butterfly.
@@LadyVenVenno one's an innocent butterfly. It sounds like you have something specific she did though so like, what is it?
Its insane the amount of people that don't know much about him but have a positive idea of him because "oh well he donates to the poor" "he gave someone a car" "he cleans the ocean". But they don't know all the shitty things he does around those. He does just enough to keep his image clean to most people and hopes no one reads into it. He's actually evil and I hope he gets what's coming to him

You want to believe people are good and give the benefit of the doubt but we keep being let down
@@lilmorsecody absolutely. You can never 100% blame people in that position cuz you're right, it's manipulative and abusive. Its really unfortunate that we have to keep up such a guard and really vet people like him before making an opinion
While I am usually the first person to call random RUclips accusation videos sus, It always amazes me that there are still people out there over the age of 20 who believe that someone even can get that rich and famous without some kind of exploitation of others. It is literally the basis of Capitalism, people.
Capitalism have killed people or ruined their lives but people don’t think about that but they do point it out with communism
The people who have been criticizing him for years about his exploitation and sexism are finally vindicated. Sucks how much hate Rosanna has gotten since she came forward about the games being rigged, obviously none of us know any of these interner personalities personally but she seems like she's always been a very genuine and kind person.
It's really easy to _"obsessive"_ about one's work when they're the boss and other people are doing the grunt work. I'm so sick of this Jeff Bezos attitude where we're all supposed to be equally invested in his dream. I'd like him to work as an entry level employee to a competitor's business for one week, see if they improve at all about this attitude that everyone must be equally energized.
Absolutely, was thinking the same during the video. Easy to be obsessive and give all your time to your job when it's about making you a millionaire and fulfilling your childish dreams of owning "the biggest company in the world" (he says that in his handbook). Why should I, a common employee put in all my time and energy into helping you become a millionaire? The entitlement of these men is amazing
@@sofiipote7 For the hope of getting a chance to eventually get a million dollars from him of course, that's why so many low pay employees stuck around for so long. They see other employees getting the occasional big fat suitcase full of dollar bills, and they're just "waiting their turn" as they chump away doing the dirty work for a mediocre salary.
mr beast has always come off as extremely untrustworthy and suspicious to me. ever since i first heard about him, i’ve been deeply unsettled in a way i don’t feel with many people, to the point where i avoid his content like the plague purely because of the visceral discomfort i feel. i’ve never been vocal about it, but the dude is scary, and i cannot understate just how unsurprised i am about these allegations. “no doesn’t mean no”? seriously, what the fuck?
Same thing happened to me, I heard about him and I think I saw some of his early content, but I always felt that there was something off there. Like some kind of staged persona, not sure how to explain it in English (not my 1st language lol) but you know... a weird feeling. Now I get it, and sadly, does not surprise me.
We might not see a direct drop-off in subscription numbers, but I think it helps that some of this stuff will show up on a Google search. Advertising agencies will see it as a risk, places that would let him film there might have someone on staff around to point out that they don’t want to be associated with him. It may not be enough to destroy him, but his career will take a turn after this. Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll have a full on Elon tantrum and throw himself in the trash for us.
So it was Adam McIntyre reacting to Rosanna reading the handbook that sent me down this whole rabbit hole. This is insanity, and yet seems like a Tuesday. 🤑
Adam is great. He really cares about these issues, because he is a survivor himself.
Mr. Beast is "Girls Gone Wild," and "Bumfights," for the RUclips generation.
3:20
It shouldn't escape anyone's attention that the thing to make the MrBeast dam break was the fact the "RUclips Commentary Community" taking the chance to be very transphobic and leaping on the chance to pull a "protect the kids" line, despite many of them falling on their swords for DrDisrespect.
100% agree - it's why I wanted to include that in this video, because there's such a strong correlation here
Anyone who defends dr disrespect already failed and instantly sus
This
Which is honestly why I don't trust anyone who suddenly criticised Mr Beast is bad and got their start from discussing Kris Tyson (and making it as if Tyson being a creep is the big issue)
Even without Kris in the pic, Jimmy is still not a great person and we mustn't act like he was ever "innocent".
@@notrod5341 I mean, there were people criticizing him for how obviously exploitative his turning of poverty into a game show was, but viewer apathy won out until a culture war prompt activated the commentariat. It’s actually kind of depressing. People just don’t care. There being entertained and they will make any rationalization for it.
I cannot describe how how for years upon years since I was in middleschool as someone that grew up in Greenville, how relieving it was to hear that yes, as a black woman, I have people that agree with me after being told by most boys in my area that Mr beast was the best thing ever for "giving back to the community" like we all didn't. Another example of this type of dynamic is Tyler Perry and the experience some actresses faced with being potentially blacklisted for not agreeing with him
2:54 Mr Beast has always been so weird to me cuz his whole RUclips formula is like “I pay the medical bills of random disabled person” or “I spend the day picking up trash” and he makes **soooo** much money off the views/ads alone on each video, he could pay to have those same actions done again multiple times over
Or he could pay to create funds/investments that go toward helping *many* people get medical care, glasses, etc. He could set up funds to equip volunteer workers to clean up litter regularly. He could set up investments, if he wanted to do good, to fund impoverished children's education so that they'd have better chances of escaping poverty. And he could set up investment funds so that the proceeds would go to providing food, supplies, and clean water to deeply impoverished nations to make people's quality of life better.
But he doesn't, because those would be quiet actions that wouldn't garner the same amount of fame, appreciation, and income. He chooses to do flashy things on purpose, and the purpose of them is not genuinely to help others, but to help Mr. Beast while exploiting the people he's ostensibly helping. His game shows and short-term gifts of large amounts of money do not help most people in the long-term.
Rosanna been saying this for a while, she's a big ytber and been working with Mr beast so she definitely knows more than normal viewers, yet people dismissed her and send SO MUCH hate to her. It only took a MAN to exposed him that the masses started to be "dangg how could no one ever said something about this" or "I could never imagine Mr beast could be like that" etc. It's rly disheartening to see people will always dismissed and ignored women's truth and told them that they're "crazy" for thinking like that but only started to listen if a man finally spoke out. Seems like times rly doesn't change that much since the past in terms of ignoring women
The Kavernacle is the only few commentator among many others that actually cares about the victims of MrBeast.
Agreed
Great work Bryony! The boys club thing is so real (felt this in almost every workplace I've been in.)
I also think it's so much more interesting to look at these situations through a broader cultural lens rather than just finding the new 'bad person' and taking them down - Thoroughly enjoyed the wider ideas you've teased out of this 👏🏻
a caveat to the subscriber count- someone pointed out that a lot of his audience is children who don't have the capacity to understand this information, if they even come across it. i really believe that he would've seen something of an impact if this wasn't the case
I also pointed this out before I saw your comment. And not only might children not know, but they likely won't believe it if they did know. They'd assume Mr. Beast is a great guy and may even see him as a friend. Worse, their parents may not know about it, or may not be monitoring what their children are watching, so the parents also aren't going to unsubscribe.
Meanwhile, Mr. Beast exploits the kids who watch his videos by convincing them to like and subscribe in hopes of winning a giveaway or a chance to be part of his show. In reality he rarely gives gifts to subscribers (and when he does, he changes the rules multiple times) and mostly does his game shows with employees and friends, meaning the kids in his audience are vanishingly unlikely to ever appear on his shows.
Yeah absolutely
So fun! Little work story about working at Amazon. When I was 18 going into 19 I worked at Amazon. I was one of the people who stood for 10 hours and packed boxes. And in that time I would wear a lot of like fandom t-shirts. Your typical Walmart v-neck type. And one of these shirts I had was a gray Hogwarts Crest v-neck. This was before I knew that JK Rowling was terrible. And there was a guy who worked behind me who hit on me. This dude was at least old enough to be my dad. Probably and then some and I told him repeatedly that I did not like that and after the third or fourth time of this happening and me telling him no. I went to HR because at 18 years old I thought hr's job was to make work a safer place. I ended up getting set home with a strike against me over dress code because my shirt was inappropriate... A shirt I had worn to this job three other times.
No way! Oh my gosh. I'm really sorry they mistreated you like that, not only with the dude being inappropriate but HR being completely useless AND blaming you
@@BryonyClaire it was a decade ago in KY I'm glad it's behind me, I love your content!
i used to wonder about how people with illnesses/ medical conditions get treated on set bc the conditions there (even in videos) seem very unsafe and inaccessible to a lot of folks but hadn't been able to find people talking about their experience before. I'm glad people are speaking up about it now. Regardless I've blocked him since finding out he's an el*n m*sk supporter, hope more people would do the same
I blocked him because he's friends with Logan Paul, and even without Dollarama Obadiah Stane over there being the Xitter Karen, anyone being friends with Logan Paul is an asshole at BEST.
I’m hoping that the next phase of the internet is to stop with the hero worship. We all have favs but people can’t use their clout anymore to pass off criticisms. A lot of people got hurt because criticisms of him always just got brushed aside instead of being reckoned with.
You know, I've never really cared for Mr Beast. Before all this shit happened, there was no real reason for me to dislike his content other than I just didn't vibe with it. Now I'm not going to say I knew something was up or anything like that, bc I didn't know, but I do think it's funny that I've never really cared for him and I find out that he's actually not a great person. Lol
Edit: Correction: Based on what I've heard from other YTers, I've always thought his content was exploitative, but I did try to rationalize that at least he was giving to charity. Point is, his content has always rubbed me the wrong way. This implosion feels very vindicating.
I've never watched Mr beast either because I'm not a child lol but also only from comments about his videos I could tell he was exploiting people who were poor, disabled, etc., for clicks while pretending to be charitable. I also heard him once talking about his videos and he sounded 100% like a businessman. You could tell he only cared about views and he had developed a system to get them. Conclusion, the allegations weren't really that surprising, although I am impressed with how much sh*t he had hidden under the rug
Some scandals surprise me, but this one didn't. I'm only surprised these stories took this long to come out.
Ive never watched a single video of his, have never understood the attraction. His smarmy smile and vibe just icked and then the bigger it got the worse it got. I find myself unsurprised
I remember plenty of people on places like reddit and twitter talking about their experiences with Mr Beast hosting these competitions in their hometowns, a lot of which were quite negative. Of course, you can't blindly believe what people say online, but what was interesting was a lot of Mr Beast fans were saying really nasty things to these people. Nothing related to the actual discussion about Mr Beast possibly being disrespectful to these town spaces, but more interested in saying things like "even if he did, who cares"
🤑 capitalism has patriarchy baked into its very literal foundations!
@dontnoable Never have I agreed with someone with a missing profile picture more!! (I mean that in a nice way.)
@@OmenFromBel0w Haha! I know what you mean. I read a book (note for possible gender essentialism) about how capitalism was created and I hadn't realised it was so literal with the 3 centuries of witch trials across europe (then exported to foreign lands as a tool of capitalist expansion beyond the borders into foreign lands, aka colonialism), for one. The establishment of capitalism was made possible because of these 3 centuries of witch trials. Sylvia Federici, Caliban & The Witch!
@@dontnoable Cool! I mean, that’s terrible!🥲
@@OmenFromBel0w Indeed. Devastating and validating is where I landed with it!
Great video! I saw this pop up four minutes after it released but had to wait to watch it! Spot on!
I only heard of this guy recently. I'm an old Gen X-er, but I also used to work in the entertainment industry. Mistrestment is the norm. There's a reason why performers and crew members join unions. Exploitation and endangerment in the workplace is real.
(Look at what happened on the non-union crew set of "Rust". 😔)
🤑
He tried to get non-union people and when he didn't get enough, he hired union for the Las Vegas beast games BS and then refused them their benefits. I don't remember who he ticked off but they're BIG and all the way up to Canada, and they've literally said they'd kick anyone out of the union if they ever worked with Mr Beast in an internal message.
Mr Beast is so bad that at least one union with a Canadian branch has banned EVER working with him for any reasons because he's a POS.
thanks for talking about this and especially from this angle!! i love all your work and have been watching all your content for a bit now, but i still forget to comment too often (i'll try to remember better + 🤑)
Never liked Mr Beast, nice to be validated now.
it’s literally the guy who put up pewdiepie billboards. how is anyone surprised?
I mean that was obviously just a stunt to gain subscribers he is however a fan of Elon who has done and continues to do far far worse. As for why people are shocked well basically this narrative that he's "not like those other rich people" which was always a load of shit.
Tax the rich, feed the poor, till there are no, rich no more.
This is the first video im watching on the mr.beast issue, and honestly, i thought the same. No justice will happen cause we worship people.... yikes😑. Thanks for speaking out about this though quite rationally and careful💖
Those people earn Rosanna a big apology. The thing is that I never heard of her but still feel sorry for her.
As someone who’s worked in the non-profit sector before I always got bad vibes - reminded me of some of the people I had to deal with. Using “charity” as a mask for pushing their own agendas, or worse to hide their wrongdoings. I’m really sad to hear how bad it’s been 😞
For me it was when disabled people sharing their concerns and explaining how he could’ve actually supported disabled people instead of the performative exploitative “I cured x blind and D/deaf people. And how quickly people were to dismiss and harass them for eg. educating people that cochlear implants aren’t a perfect, one-fit-all solution. And the ‘he saved their life’ comments as if blind and D/deaf people cannot live normal fulfilling lives and be disabled.
There was also a commentary video I saw that showed part of a Mr. Beast video where a person who was getting older/maybe already elderly or retirement age needed the surgery to return to work to support his (impoverished) family. Now I'm not minimizing the fact that the guy got help and was able to go back to work and keep his family going as a result, but as wealthy as Mr. Beast was, he couldn't, I don't know, set up an emergency fund for them in case anything else went wrong? An education fund for the guy's kids? Something to help the guy feel at ease that his family would be OK no matter what, even if he genuinely wanted to work and not retire? Because yeah, the ability to work meant the guy's family wouldn't starve, for now, but imagine if they had gotten some kind of help, such as an investment or savings account, that would actually have helped them escape poverty over time so the man could someday retire. But no, because Mr. Beast wanted to pretend to be Jesus for RUclips views and likes--and of course the cold hard cash that came along with it.
I may have the details wrong somewhat because I did not personally watch the video on Mr. Beast's channel, but the commentary was right to call him out on only offering surgery while the man and his family were still impoverished, and hundreds and thousands of people suffer vision impairment that could be helped by funding vision checks and glasses, etc. But donating funds to a charity that provides vision care and glasses isn't as entertaining as picking one guy who looks appropriately miserable to help out so that Mr. Beast can look saintly in comparison.
I'm not a Mr. Beast fan, haven't ever watched his videos. The only thing I knew about him before all this blew up was that he was some famous RUclipsr well known to exploit impoverished people.
It really helped me with the sounds and VIBRATIONS from the construction site (making land from water) next door to imagine them as music and Trolls' dancing, arguing, a robot showing up... anything you like that fits. It gives a reasons to the sounds and distracts your brain. Helps with falling asleep.
Didn't mind the sounds on the soundtrack, did not even notice them.
I agree, i have a sports arena operating outside my bedroom window for a year, 4 nights a week of volleyball tournaments, 30-50 loud, aggressive people playing and yelling. They even have a refreshment stand with a serving window for food, beverages and alcohol. It he'll but her voice is soothing. I'm pretty sure it's an underground volleyball gambling ring and that's why no one will remove them from our residential neighborhood 😢 looks like they know someone 💰💰💰💰
Mr beast has always rubbed me the wrong way... and yep, 45 here and can confirm the slime workplace crap. Got taken off the schedule/effectively fired when I declined "going home" with the manager... then my paycheck was missing $100 he said it was because my drawer was short... so I had to go in and bring up that I know the law in our state, what he did was illegal (in multiple ways) and the least he can do is give me my damn money. There's so much more.. stalking... a different manager lifted my shirt up when he came in drunk off the clock. Etc etc. Bartender/server for 20+ years. I wholeheartedly believe too many experiences made my ptsd even worse.
What's really sad and infuriating is that I had so much internalized misogyny and trauma, I didn't know I could or how to speak up most of the time... fear of losing job, since I'd been there before (1st story I told happened in my mid 20s)... so that some damage.
Eta because I forgot 🤑
fucking hilarious how it only takes one BIG freakout for people to actually start looking at the cracks in this operation, and in the rich very capitalist guy's oh so squeaky clean image.
it honestly makes me mad.
Love your videos, keep up the good work! 🤑🤑🤑
Really sad that it takes men coming forward for it to be taken seriously...
after Rosanna came out about everything, I remember that they wanted to have a call with her (they were already emailing which was working for everyone) she knew damn well they were going to record the call (& other creators agreed he def would). i saw someone post an article about how they trashed an island for a video and only responded to local fishermen (who were cleaning up after them) when they were talking about it online. I knew for sure there would be layers to this that would come out eventually. There's too many people involved.
i certainly didnt expect war crimes, though X_X
i didnt expect people to NOT call him "dramatic" for explicitly saying "war crimes," but i guess thats the difference, aint it
the truth sounds "dramtic" as a woman (even a white woman with a good rep) and being emotional with the details is "speaking truth to power" or whatever as a man. godddddddd
he went through horrible, traumatizing shit, but the difference in response is baffling :/
I've unsubed from a LOT of people who werent taking Rosanna seriously, but jumped at attention for this guy like wtf???
(Sorry if any of this is incomprehensible, I am SO sick rn and my sister tested positive for covid for the second time and we're both immunocompirmised and i havent had a fever since a was in single didgets so im just hanging on lolllll dont f around w/ covid if youre in the US midwest, itll kick your ass X_X)
To be clear, If Jake is faking he should quit standup to be an actor.
The level of true raw emotion he displayed is either completely sincere (i think so) or Jake should be in Oscar contention within the next few years.
Mr. Beast is the perfect example of how powerful PR workers really are
love love love how your approach is always intersectional
Also, his games are getting pretty dangerous to even participate in. He is turning everything into hunger game and his world into handmaid tale 😬.
Male Ellen DeGeneres
😂😂😂 that literally made me cackle
Four minutes into the video and I just wanted to say: I didn't come here for Mr Beast content, I came here because your videos are consistently excellent
new bryony video lets GO
🤑 Your videos are always so well researched and I learn so much from you. Thanks for the great content!
So glad I live in Sydney where I get to appreciate your humour without experiencing the same small island problems
(puts a tinfoil hat on) Mr. Beast seemingly didn't lose subscribers because youtube digitally manipulates his stats (views and subscribers count) because he brings them so much money in ads revenue.
More likely it's just because most of his viewers are kids, whose parents aren't regulating what they watch and/or don't know what's been going on with Mr.Beast. Most of them either don't know anything about what's been going on, don't care, or don't believe it because they think Mr. Beast is their friend and a great guy.
The fact that most of his viewers are kids also makes his fake giveaway videos all the more exploitative, because those kids genuinely believe that if they like and subscribe they might have a chance to win something. In truth the gifts mostly go to Mr. Beast's friends and employees.
Too true! Couldn't agree more! keep up the awesome videos!! 🤑
You can see it in his face. I don’t get why people are surprised
🤑 So glad to see this guy getting called out, even if it'll go nowhere. I've never liked him due to his exploitative videos, dude is a pure capitalist through and through who only does things to make more cash. People constantly saying he's generous and a philanthropist are drinking the juice; he won't do anything without assessing if it'll make him money first. If he was a true philanthropist he wouldn't be sticking cameras in peoples faces and asking them to peform like a dancing monkey and "be grateful" to the camera. And they're always things that don't actually impact people in useful ways. Giving a guy a million but he HAS to spent it all in 24hrs? Giving a homeless guy a lambo? Like wtf lmao. His stuff just always seems extremely exploitative and ableist.
I think there are ways to film generous actions, but it's a fine line, and it shouldn't include exploiting the person you're aiding. I'm thinking of the folk that clean vulenerable peoples houses for free, or do their yard (people like Midwest Magic). They clean a house with no caveats, but ask to record their cleaning process. There's no filming the people, no forcing them to sob gratefully at the camera, and no stupid caveats like "CLEANING A HOUSE WITH ONLY 10 TRASH BAGS!!!!!"
Disappointed that it took so long for people to finally realize how sketchy Mr. Beast is and how horribly he runs his company.
(Also, love TiffanyFerg and The Kavernacle!)
Isn't it crazy how Rosanna is always being real and honest about these kinds of situations WAY before they blow up and people just continue to choose to ingore her?
Interesting enough, I'm older (ish, i guess, almost 40) and all of the people my age or older saw his video for exactly what they were, pure exploitation. No one else listened, but turns out he was exactly what we saw he was.
I’m only in my 20s but a few years in the non-profit sector were enough for me to recognise it for what it is too… It’s sad
This is why I love the phrase "immoral amounts of money" because, $1,000,000 or above is more than any human needs and most likely came from the exploitation of someone else.
Considering the cost of living in some places results in regular houses being over $1,000,000, and the cost of retirement for most people is edging up over the $1,000,000 mark, I think you are lowballing it. Maybe, like myself, you live in an area with relatively low cost of living and you just aren't aware of how little money $1M actually is. Even then, I'm sure that if your area is like mine, home prices and rent prices have pretty much doubled from their pre-2020 values, not to mention the rising costs of groceries and utilities. $1M doesn't go nearly as far as you might want, especially if you're supporting a family.
My thought on the matter is that people should certainly be able to become wealthy, but no one should be a billionaire, and probably nobody should have $100M+. Once you have enough for a home and to retire on comfortably, the rest is mostly greed. Companies should be putting money back into their base-level workers, limit the percentage of revenue that can be directed toward the top-ranking executives, and anything that doesn't go to salaries should go to improving the company--its offices and equipment, any innovations or work that it focuses on, etc.--and, if the company doesn't need equipment or office upgrades and can't or doesn't wish to innovate in its services/products, the last bit should go either tax or local charities of the sort that distribute wealth to the purposes and people in the community who need it.
My idea will never be implemented, of course. AI will have all our jobs before my thoughts would even be relevant.
MrBeast is the perfect example of the phrase that i just made up "We shouldn't give someone 10 million subcribers for every year old they are"
For the algorithm - 🤑
Thanks for your time, Bryony!
Great video Bryony!! 🤑
I only heard about any of this extremely recently, but I honestly hadn’t liked him for years. The whole “make content showing off him throwing money around” kind of struck me as gross and exploitative. Also he’s friends with Gary Vee
🤑
That was awesome! I loved your analysis! Following you now! ❤️
I remember Philosophy tube did a good breakdown of the problematic nature that Mr Beast uses for his altruism. That at its core he would only ever put bandaids on the problems and only ever attack the symptoms instead of actually dealing with the root cause because that root cause is exactly what is making him money. Now the video doesn’t really put the blame on Mr Beast, and is more about the altruistic entrepreneur as a whole, but it really got to what irked me about Mr Beast’s kindness.
Sure team trees put down a bunch of trees, but if those were all the exact same type of tree you just created a monoculture that will die when the next blight comes through. Sure team seas took out a bunch of plastic, but that just got sent to a landfill which will ultimately end up back in the ocean, and it doesn’t stop new plastic from entering the water at all. Sure he gave Blind and Deaf people sight and hearing, but that’s not cutting a the systemic problems the Blind and Deaf communities are dealing with at all. None of his altruism actually does anything. Yes a handful of people are better off now than before, but that’s only a fraction of the people that are dealing with this problem, and Mr Beast will never deal with the root cause because it makes him money to not do that.
Everything he does isn’t to do good, or actually have a positive impact on the world, but to make him money and give him praise. It’s why everything is a gameshow, a challenge, or a social experiment because that makes him money. The moment he did a squid game challenge I instantly knew his character because only a specific type of person looks at that show and goes “oh let’s totally do this!” Glad to see my gut reaction of this guy was right. Shame too since I was starting to come around to him since he was actively supporting Ava in her transition and defending her against transphobes. He was actively showing he was an ally to us trans people. Shame that’s also a blight on our community now too, and one that will probably have longer lasting effects compared to all the shit Mr Beast is going through.
The Mr Beast stans defending him is giving pewdiepie's child mob.
I love your videos and topics Bryony. ❤ Keep going. 🤑
this is actually a very good take, very well researched, thanks again.
Mr. Beast always gave me David Dobrik vibes
🤑🤑🤑
Your video was the first and probably the only one I'll watch about MrBeast, and it seems like a nightmare to work for/with an asshole like that. Also thank you for showing the clip of Devil wears Prada - I'm tired of seeing people praise the kind of work environment, as if it wasn't toxic af and sth we should get rid of, it's not middle ages anymore. I wish more people saw that for what it is, not something to strive for, bc you want to be THAT person, you want to be the big shot that treats people "beneath" you like trash.
I myself worked for a big fish in a little pond, and it's AWFUL. You get paranoid, knowing about all the connections and what standing up to them means to you.
Also, see The Truth About Mr Beast's Cruel Empire by Earthling Ed, which exposes environmental and ethical hypocrisies.
🤑 Honestly, I don't even remember ever getting him in my feed, but I have heard of him still, and seen Tiffany Fergusons video. That "no doesn't mean no" shit is crazy. It's just sad that men has to speak up before something is taken remotely seriously:/
Being a man, it was Rosanna which showed much about this guy, I support her, I support women like you, not American myself but it seems like this jimmy guy is no good, you will not get hate from me, nope, where I am from (same as his current gf) we treat each other with respect... no, I respect and appreciate your take on this situation, I do
I've been seeing pro-Ava/Beast bots posting spam on channels, I donated a ton of my time today reporting every single one on huge channels like Legal Eagle. I hope you don't have to deal with that here.
Nice to hear you mention Kavernacle. You 2 are both faves of mine, I'd love to see you talk to each other.
I have so many of your videos on my Watch list, & I fan girled seeing you on a comment section in the wild, maybe Tee Noir? It was a while ago. I can't wait to get to a good place in therapy so I can watch more of your videos; you hit close to my chronically ill bones so I have a bunch of them I'm going to binge as soon as I can.
See you as soon as I learn change + grow.

@@sofiipote7 Yes that is correct.
She uses rhyming words to talk about things she feels may not be "brand safe".
Yeah...Mr Beast has always given some red flag vibes. No surprise here. He'll eventually fail. All Empires fall or fade away.
Like your hairline.
It's optimistic to think that way, but then we have so many people with generational wealth that the more likely result is that he has kids who end up richer than he is and end up super entitled because they can't comprehend why everyone else can't just pay for personal trainers and chefs.
@@brassbuckles Not optimistic at all. Unfortunately, some Empires might take several human lifetimes before they fall. And, yes, it's horrible for the people under it. Mr Beast will probably go waaay before that. He's like the crypto bros who have lost their butts in the currency. Plus LOTS of RUclipsrs have risen and fell within 10-20 years. He's not the same caliber as a Rockefeller.
@@skellymom No, but he's set for life and then some, unless he wastes it or loses it in legal battles.
I recently found your channel and just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos and the feminist lens you apply to issues! Even though you could argue that Mr Beast has helped certain people, I've never quite trusted him - cameras shouldn't have to be filming each and every time you 'help' someone🤑
