I honestly can’t watch an hour long video right now. Does anyone have a TLDW? I skimmed through the first 10 mins and it’s all about his videos being scripted, edited, and using paid actors. That’s not really surprising. What I’m curious about is if he really gives away all that money and stuff (i.e. cars, houses) to people. The video probably goes into that later on but I haven’t gotten to it.
The TL:DW is Mr. Beast is a master of using gambling psychology to capture kids’ attention, to then sell them horribly unhealthy foods. His contests and giveaways are largely fake and/or are rigged to favor other creators, friends and family. He constantly fails to deliver promised prizes, and he runs live streams that are essentially child gambling masquerading as sweepstakes. He violates sweepstakes laws all the time but seems to get away with it by taking down old streams, and DMCAs any clips that get uploaded by others. He has also promoted a scheme to get his fans to act as child labor and stock/organize his products at Walmart.
Damn how is this just now coming out?
Like I figured most of it had to be bullshit when I found the “Mr. Beast Burger” ghost kitchens on Uber eats.
I ordered it once and I was very disappointed when it wasn’t actually ground Mr. Beast.
0/10 and have started a class action lawsuit if anyone wants to join.
Can we file joinly against the Girl Scouts?
There has to be some kind of violation of the Mercantile Act.
Somoas indeed…
The video author posted this comment under the video which goes over his main claims:
"Claims I provide evidence for in this video:
Many MrBeast videos are fake, contests are unfairly rigged, and contestants are often undisclosed friends and family of MrBeast employees, or employees themselves.
MrBeast has run multiple illegal lotteries targeting children. (I estimate they profited over $10,000,000 from these lotteries)
MrBeast knowingly sold merch with fake autographs while claiming on his website that “The autographed piece is genuine”. (fraud imo)
Also MrBeast knew about Kris being a pdf"
how do you convert “pedophile” into PDF?
Adobe Acrobat can do anything these days
Right click on him and click “print.” Then where you pick a printer choose “convert/print to PDF.”
Ohh that’s what was meant. I thought it was about some document before reading your comment.
People saying pdf file instead of pedophile because of internet brain rot. What a cool thing to discuss serious topics and call them stupid fucking names in the least serious way possible.
I really hate the culture of self censorship people are developing. Fuck the corporate clean Internet.
I’m not advocating for being uncivilized but we should name the things we are discussing by their names.
I hate how people call it “cheese pizza” for “CP/child porn.”
Like, I get that YouTube is fucking bullshit about censoring things that don’t immediately bring them as revenue, but it’s still gross imo.
You’re not defending anyone by calling it something entirely unrelated aside from the first letter of each word.
Its very prevalent in Commie-China-Places. Pooh-Bear to mean XiPIGpIng. 8964 for TiannamenSquare Massacre. Taiwan #1 Country. All those are censored behind the Great Firewall of China.
I’m pretty sure that the Chinese can’t get on Lemmy anyway though. If they somehow find a way then they don’t need to censor themselves because obviously.
Seems like a weird justification.
no i never said that justifies it. Chinese people go to jail if they are found browsing outside the Great Firewall.Google and other social media censorship can, just as quickly, lead to social credit scores ( well credit scores are gatekeeping poor people already ) and inevitable erosion of free speech and chill fair-use copyright exercising.
Censorship might have edge cases ( terror attack suspect details, privacy from surveillance, etc) but it should never be the norm and it should be directly dealt with jury-trial court-cases with Billion-dollar penalties to ensure it will never happen again without stringent checks-and-balances.
Pretty sure that cheese pizza originated in IT because it was so common to see, and ignore, CP on exec’s computers when you had to go fix them. It was used to share the info without getting busted talking about it.
It’s like how people censor the word Microsoft as M$. Like why, say the name
That isn’t a censor, it is a statement and an abbreviation… I suppose PDF could be an abbreviation as well with pedo being one letter longer. PDF file on the other hand is just censor circumventing or their brand of humor.
No it isn’t because they’re abbreviating it to a phrase that’s more complicated to type. As opposed to the obvious abbreviation that even Microsoft use of MS
It’s because on many social media, the word pedo / pedofile wakes up the censor bots while PDF / PDF file does not. Yet.
I would tell you but I’m not signing up for the legalese involved in an Adobe Premiere Cloud Subscription. Fuckers reserve the right to use my art as AI training data?
I draw the finest chocolate starfish.
With some sort of Adobe tool I suppose. The use of TLAs by the US crowd is becoming increasingly confusing to me.
Well you understood what he meant, so you tell me.
The PIECE is genuine. The autograph isn’t! Lmao
What is this about? I tried looking it up but all I’m getting is weird right wing shit.
It’s spoken about in the video, but a woman called Kris that worked for Mr Beast had some controversy come about I think grooming children or being a pedophile (not sure about details). Mr Beast feigned ignorance about it, but the guy in the OP video claims it was an “open secret everybody knew”. He also says it’s even worse than “just” that because Mr Beast’s company specifically works with understanding how to manipulate child psychology and bring children in, and videos etc have brought minors into easier access by Kris.
You might be getting a lot of weird right wing shit because Kris is a trans woman and a common right wing accusation against trans people is that they are pedophiles.
I’m like 90% sure it’s not true. Right wingers love to accuse LGBTQ+ people of being pedophiles because they’re intolerant little cunts. LGBTQ+ people can of course be pedophiles, but it’s no more likely than cishet people being pedophiles.
Problem is that trans people have been around non-western cultures for several millenia and are either tolerated or abused. But it has always been that trans was not treated as a problem in most of those societies that had them.
If PDF files / pedo-philes are using the trans “identity” as a sword and shield, it is ABSOLUTELY a BIG PROBLEM. Trans people should vehemently ban and completely villify these abhorrent criminal kiddie-diddlers for what they are.
Right-wing Nazis will use these and anything else as an excuse to go after the community supporting or hiding criminals. DO NOT LET THAT HAPPEN.
If you wish for a latest and greatest example of people abusing “identities” … #MeToo failed due to excessive AmberTurd, AnitaSNarkeesian, ZoeDQuinn publicity while mainstream media failed spectacularly. Most recently, DEIDIEESG and BRIDGE are also going to become like this and are well on their way to getting buried. DO NOT BECOME THESE KIND OF EXAMPLES. Elevate yourselves and keep the Criminals OUT.
I don’t really understand what you’re trying to say. LGBTQ+ people are at far higher risk of being the target of sexual abuse rather than the perpetrators. Why do you think they’d be any more willing of defending that abuse than any other group?
The police are the group most likely to defend abuse. Why aren’t they being targeted for being groomers?
Your comment, as far as I can understand it, is basically victim blaming LGBTQ+ people for being harassed by the right wing bigots. They’re not calling LGBTQ+ people groomers because they’ve got a genuine concern. They do it because they want to undertake genocide against LGBTQ+ people.
wow! somehow you came to the conclusion that I am victim-blaming ? :-/
the perpetrators are the ones who are going to victimize the groups who cant defend themselves.
Be prepared for all sorts of predators, pedo-philes, serial killers to start their closet journey and they will claim victimhood better than most normal people.
Police will defend their own people even if police commit the crime.
Right-wingers will claim special providence when their people commit the crime.
Criminals will claim to be part of a vulnerable group just so they can commit the crime.
Make up your own mind and judgement what is the safest choices.
Do not become victims of criminals.
Be Safe and Carry on living peacefully.
Since when has being the member of a minority group made it easier for you to get away with committing a crime? Minorities have always been persecuted more severely and more often for crimes than the majority.
Your comment is like saying that native-born people would pretend to be immigrants to get away with crimes. It doesn’t make any sense. How would that help them?
Nobody is interested in defending people who are criminals. There should be a burden of proof required for minorities just as there is for non-minorities. The reality we have is that minorities don’t get the benefit of the doubt that non-minorities do, so, if anything, it’s harder for criminals from a minority group to get away with things.
So yeah, you kind of are victim blaming, I think. LGBTQ+ are the victims of a right-wing hate campaign that labels them as groomers, so when people just assume that accusations are baseless, you’re saying that’s LGBTQ+ people’s responsibility. No, the responsibility is with the hate mob.
Add onto this that he is using lotteries to get people to buy his chocolate (even though its consistently rated as not as good as others) and he is lying about the healthiness of said chocolate.
Why would I expect more from a legal tv channel, say, owned by Murdoch or “left leaning” like CNN?
I feel the same. For me, anything over 10 minutes and I speed it up to 1.5 speed. I barely notice and saved roughly 20 min off of it. This is also continued so it seems like there will be like 3 or more videos covering various subjects.
You can do x2 speed. I promise you. I believe in you.
I used to have a lecturer at university and I got to the point where I could not stand being in his lectures, and I had to watch the recordings at two times, just to make him sound like a normal human.
He didn’t speak slowly, he just drooled every word, sooo heee woulddddd talllllk likeeeee thissss.
😂I wish that YouTube would have 3x speed, like my podcast player
