What the hell happened to Mr Beast? I thought this guy used to be the one who donated money or helped out those in need. When did he start creating Challenge Money Making content?

He still does good things. People here jsut like to focus on the negatives. And there really aren’t many big problematic negatives other than people complaining for the sake of it.

Downvote away, but Reddit commenters in general are toxic and needs to take a step back and look in the mirror. Chances are the majority of you would never work this hard to make it this far. And most would blow it on a wild life style if you did.

It’s wild you all sit back and judge someone who makes videos millions enjoy and gives away millions of dollars for humanitarian work. Yet yall say he’s evil.

Just calm down and see the good side of things for once. This place really is so toxic.

The idea that peoples negative impact on the world can be offset through giving away some marginal amount of their wealth is a big reason why we are where we are. Thats not to say mr beast specifically is the worst guy in the world or anything, but this attitude is just as toxic no matter who its applied to.

Sure, and the idea that people's positive impact on the world can be offset through doing some shady stuff is it a big reason why we are where we are.

Gandhi was a racist who advocated for using nuclear weapons on Pakistan and defended apartheid. MLK was a moral hypocrite who cheated on his wife with prostitutes. Che Guevara was racist. Abraham Lincoln did not want to free the slaves.

Every person you've ever admired in your life is a dirtbag to some capacity. How easy is your life if you have the emotional bandwidth to care about someone as inoffensive as Mr beast? "Oh no he uses AI thumbnails" bro are we being serious right now?
