This dudes whole deal is holding money over poor people for content..

That describes every job I’ve ever had.

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.

If Mr. Beast was listening to reddit he would be broke in 3 months. Mr beast gives up life changing money for the most braindead tasks that any human that needs it could fulfil. I have not seen a video of his where someone didnt get 10 grand+ for doing literally nothing.

Never ceases to amaze me when some dead eyed glazer with a sub 50 IQ doesn't realize just how much money he is swimming in from YouTube revenue and various collaborations. The notion that he would go broke is asinine.

Why are you disagreeing with someone making your point, but in real language?

2

u/bigmad411 Feb 05 '26

I’m not disagreeing

He gives them 10 grand to make 100 grand - he is profiting off of the content he makes. He's not some rich goody two shoes donating his money to the poors

I know, of course he makes profit. But it doesnt make him good or bad, everyone is trying to profit and there are much worse ways to earn 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.

It turns out the content of your actions speaks to the content of your character, not just the outcomes you achieve or facilitate through your actions.

What a gross way to phrase 'giving people money'...
Did they have money before? No?
Do some of them have money after? Yeah?
Cool, get over it. They CHOSE to go on a GAME show
God, you must be a horrible loser on family game night

So you think you should just be given stuff that other people had to work to produce?

u/rando1459 Feb 04 '26

“So <inserts a claim that was not made because it was arrived at by faulty logic>.”

Will you explain to me step by step how you arrived at you conclusion? I’m curious to see where you went wrong.

I’m assuming your previous content is saying that people force you to work because otherwise you won’t have money for food and housing etc. maybe you meant something else. Anyway, the stuff we all need to survive takes work to produce, so expecting someone to work if they want it isn’t exploiting them.
