Mr. Beast has always been and will continue to be a huge piece of shit.
It must be a generational thing but that guy creeps me the fuck out, and if horrific allegations about him came to light, I would not be surprised.
It’s because he doesn’t smile with his eyes.
One if the very few YouTubers I forbid my kids to watch. He’s pretty much a summary of what’s rotten in our civilization. Such a piece of shit.
The only reason he hasn’t fully embraced MAGA is because it’ll kill his ratings.
There are worse individuals, apparently the wells he dug in Africa were a real philanthropic venture.
That said, I would be fine with his career ending, I am sure many more people would be doing far better jobs than him.
Not the problem. Most of his videos are exploiting human misery to makes a few bucks.
The dude made people torture each other, jump in burning houses to make views. That’s simply pure evil and not something I intend my child to think it’s normal.
Any barely good society would simply shame him out of business .
Both things can be true, I just wouldn’t declare him any sort of criminal mastermind the likes of Trump, Putin, Musk, Xi, or Hitler. A lot of people in this thread are wishing death or suffering upon the dude but I think that’s a little extreme.
The summary of everything rotten with our civilization lies elsewhere.
Of course not. He’s a pos of a YouTubers, he’s not a genocidal maniac.
Yet, he’s a proud representation of the absolute mess we’re in. Some genius 200 years ago had the great idea of saying it was ok to remove any ethic/humanity from the economy. And now, we’re living in a dystopian hell where it’s ok to profit from misery and where empathy is a sin.
He could organise squid games to sell cereal without blinking. Empty husks profiting.
200 years ago…?
Try 15,000 years.
Bernard de Mandeville, 1670 - 1733. First “neo liberal” author and the man that coined the ethicless economy. I was off by 100 years tho 😁
Not to say everything was perfect and nice before, but he’s one of the father of modern capitalism and the first to theorise businesses didn’t have to be ethic.
For him, the virtue of the society would be a guard against the sin of the economy. Like that, businesses could focus on making as much money as possible.
Of course, it was stupid. Greed and cupidity were not magically contained…
So theres actually another great example of economic nationalism and inflation without need for ethics slightly before that: Vlad the Impaler.
and actually, a much more successful example: Ghenghis Khan, aka First Emperor (of Yuan dynasty) Taizu whos descendents ruled China for 400+ years with a noticeable amount of wealth disparity and multiple widespead famines.
Neither Greed nor Stupidity are inherently capitalistic in nature, nor is it recent, and nor are any individual outcomes.
We should instead go back to calling American football “gridiron.” It sounds cooler.
I prefer handegg.
A toxic masculinity-fueled sport like that could do with a whimsical but accurate name to balance things out.
waitball, where you spend most of the game waiting for them to do something with the ball
Or AdvertiseBalls. It’s just commercials with a bit of gameplay in between.
Unfortunately that would not differentiate the two
I’d agree, except clearly Baseball is the waitiest of waitballs…
New MLB rules have fixed that, they have a timer on the play now so pitchers don’t spend all day checking bases and shit. 15-18 seconds between pitches, 30 seconds between batters is overall less waitball than the NFL 40s play timer and timeouts.
Which is which I don’t know how people say soccer is boring cause nothing happens. When nothing literally happens in the 3 plus hour football game.
And we call the shortened version “Griddle”? :D
Called so for the fact to stop the guy carrying the ball, you flatten them like a pancake.
Wasn’t there a chance of winning the World cup at around 1%? They had such a crap team that they had to import players from other countries who were technically American but didn’t actually live there. Irony of irony is that Trump relies on immigrants to fill out the team.
They had the easiest path in the entire tournament to the round of 16, finally met a country halfway decent and got the doors blown off them.
To be fair I think that happens in every country. England used to have the best players in the world (Until SA started throwing money at the sport i guess, I dont follow much these days), but at world cup time suddenly we’re playing against those players because theyre all foreigners.
Stop reminding me Erling Haaland exists please
Since they won, we should rename that bit of water the Gulf of Belgium.
Checkmate: we now only order Freedom Waffles.
MrBeast filmed himself rigging sweepstakes and contests, endangering people with reckless negligence, but is still makes new videos.
Other people have had their careers ended over mere uncorroborated allegations of misconduct, so why tf is that loser still making shit?
MrBeast IS a 13 year old brain piloting a grown man’s body.
Nah, he’s aware of what he’s doing.
He was just “engagementmaxxing at all costs” before it was en vogue.
People with kids, please don’t let them get brainwashed by those cancer influencers
I would not be surprised if MrBeast was outted as a nonce
Mr. Beast is an American ambassador for sure! He’s probably yachting in the Gulf of America as we speak!
As if we needed yet another reason to hate Mr. Beast.
I am not one to watch football.
But the crocodile tears I am hearing from US and some BS as well made me pirate the BE vs US game :DAmericans pretty much stop playing footy at 12 years of age. If you are a talented athlete you probably end up playing basketball or football. American men will likely never be good since all the talent always goes elsewhere.
Footy/futbol/soccer is a third tier sport in the United States and it always will be. It’s by far the single most popular sport in any country that is good at it. Median salary for the NFL and NBA is 10 times more than MLS.
Not even close really.
Americans pretty much stop playing footy at 12 years of age.
We have High School teams, Recreation Teams, and College Teams.

It’s not our highest-ranked sport, so it doesn’t get the same attention as American Football, but it’s not like it’s not played in most towns.
K, then why are they hosting the world cup tho
Because FIFA is a corrupt organization.
North America is hosting the world cup.
Not just the USA.
Yes, including the USA. They shouldn’t.
Neither should have South Korea or Japan or
Qatarin the past, but they did.
I just call it footy at this point. That way nobody confuses it for handegg.
