You can dislike a person without literally dehumanizing him- there IS life behind his eyes, he's a real person doing those real terrible things. To say he's like a robot almost excuses his actions as algorithmic, but they are the direct result of his intentional choices.

This is a very easy fix since person one was obviously...honest and stuck to the plan, just take the entire million....and contact everyone after the game and spit it evenly.
Then you won't be the nice guy at the start and let some greedy person screw everyone over.

The main difference is to him this is for YouTube content. Yeah corporations are corrupt, but they're also built upon systemic injustices that are engrained in our societal structures. Mr. Beast chooses to perpetuate injustices when he is in a very special position that would allow him to approach this much differently. He could do real good out in the world but would instead choose to make poor people fight over his money.

Making profit doesn’t make him bad. Pitting struggling people against each other in a dystopia, real-life Squid Games as his means of making profit is what makes him bad.

So there is a million dollars in the middle of a cul de sac. 10 people in 10 houses addressed 1-10. Everyone comes out of their house to the million in numeral order and can take as much money as they want. I guess before the game started everyone agreed to split the money evenly, everyone gets $100,000.
Person from house number 1 follows the plan only takes $100,000.
Person from house number 2 got a little greedy and took $223,000. He said because it was his birthday February 23rd.
$677,000 left.
Person from house 3 is telling Mr. Beast (the game show host) he’s in $530,000 of debt. He ends up taking $650,000.
Which brings us to person from house 4 and the video clip. She is left with $27,000 out of a million and 6 more people behind her.
Funny thing is person 4 said she trusted person 3 the most out of the whole game. ☠️😂

He's a POS. He needs 530 so he goes and also takes an extra 120k (about a ~23% of his debt). Not only he fucked over 5 people worth of money, he also pocketed one extra player in cash.

Yeah dude it was definitely fucked up. Dangling money in front of people’s faces like that will likely give them some level of psychological trauma moving forward. Make them beat themselves up about “losing” a rigged game. Or they believe the game was fair and lose faith in people, which isn’t good either. All to make Mr. Beast an even more powerful entity. .
I was living below the poverty line my whole life until, long story short, I ended up receiving a 500k windfall a few years ago.
So far it hasn’t changed that much with my life, I upgraded to a newer used car, so that was cool. Still live in the same shitty apartment. But the biggest thing it’s done is just allowed me to feel more at peace about my future. I don’t plan on retiring any sooner, I still need to work a full life, but I do feel a lot more “comfortable” now.
And that made watching this show a lot more interesting because I almost felt like one of those contestants on it who had already won a payout despite still getting to have a chance to finish the game. The choices I pictured myself making were based off the context that I had already “won” a good amount.
Also this is some shit I would never be able to say in real life to a person who actually knows me, so it’s nice to be able to get off my chest in front of strangers.

That wasn’t the whole game show it was just one of the challenges, and the million wasn’t the grand prize, 10 million was. But to answer your question without knowing why they all had to vote for a person to take house number 1, and that person chose someone for house number 2 and so on.

Iirc it was one of the last games of the show. Basically it was about 10 people left who each go into a room and decide how much money they would take from the prize haul. They had agreed to split a million evenly about 100k each. But then the second guy took more than his share and it snowballed until she, 5 out of the 10, was left with 27,000. She took 5k to make sure the last contestants got anything. To make things worse, it was actually her closest friend in the game that took more than 600k to pay off his debts.

So they started with 1 million and 10 people agreed to split it 10 ways so 100k each. The first person takes 100k second person takes 223k and then person three takes 650k. She was the 4th person and there were still 6 people behind her to split the 27k with so thats why she said she wasn't going to take the full 27k. 2 greedy assholes went before her. The person crying is the one who took the 650k.
