Fuck that narcissist
His face is oh so punchable. He has the weirdest fake smile and it creeps me tf out
I never watched any of his videos but to friends that did I always said he would eventually make headlines for some kind of problematic behavior or involvement, and when asked what it was based on I just said I could tell by his face. Unnatural and disingenuous in appearance and actions if questioned further but none of them could see it.
doesn’t smile with his eyes

He also has the most generic milquetoast white dude face ever. I know about 8 guys in my town alone who could be his twins, going by the face alone.
This is what I should of told my friend when I told him Mr Beast was full of shit and after he became utterly shocked at the words coming out of my mouth. How would I dare insult the man that gave poor kids in Africa money on video.
That’s how you get super gonorrhea.
…all the ‘rrheas
My 10-year-old daughter recently mentioned Mr. Beast and I said what do you know about him? She said I don’t know but my friends showed me his videos and I think the guy’s a creep. I pretty much gave her a high five and said she can have all the ice cream she wants LOL.
Your comment reads kinda like:
That friends name? Einstein, everyone clapped, and gave you a hundred dollars.
You are not getting any ice cream.
Nah
You’re getting downvoted because people don’t like to have their poor critical thinking skills called out. They’d rather ignorantly eat up whatever BS is served to them.
Nope. Everyone’s entitled to theirs opinions, but I downvoted them for being wrong (and because I thought their comment was kind of dumb).
It’s no pinnacle of storytelling, but it reads exactly like a parent telling a casual mini-story about their kid to strangers on the internet. It’s a recounting of someone else’s words, but being a creep is a totally reasonable conclusion for a ten year old to reach and it’s also not all that uncommon for parents to praise and reward children for being able to think for themselves or at the very least form a “good” opinion. Ergo, OP’s comment does not read like they’re trying to pass off a tall tale or spin out bullshit.
Now if the kid had allegedly said something like “the guy’s emblematic of everything wrong with celebrity culture and philanthropy as entertainment is a scourge on society”, we’d be having different conversation.
Philanthropy porn is just disgusting to begin with. That alone should have ended him. But people think it’s a “feel-good story” so they keep watching. A lot of times, the follow-ups to such stories feel less good since the people getting that philanthropy often can’t afford to pay to maintain whatever they’ve been given.
Philanthropy porn
What an excellent description of this kind of behavior.
I was going to say I got it from somewhere, but apparently the term is usually “charity porn.” I think “philanthropy porn” works better though because it’s just as much about the philanthropist themselves as it is about what they’re offering.
Spend $1,000,000 in 24 hours!
I think you coined the term “philanthropy porn”.
But instead of just the best images of the subject matter like /cableporn or /earthporn, this has the negative connotation of voyeuristic performative prostitution. He’s the pimp, and he’s whoring out his recipients to make his money.
I agree, but on the other hand the people he helps, well, get helped, and would be worse off if he didn’t do that. Obviously it would be better if he wasn’t making money off of it, but would it be better if he stopped?
As morally dubious as he is, I’m sure the people who have access to water after his “build 100 wells in Africa” stunt would disagree with opinions that he should stop.
So I don’t know. I agree with the criticism, but I always think of the people who got help and I’m unsure what would be better.
I agree, but on the other hand the people he helps, well, get helped, and would be worse off if he didn’t do that.
This is fallacious and it plays into what I said. There is no follow-up on those people. You don’t know if they would be worse off if they weren’t helped.
He “built 100 houses and gave them away” earlier this year. Great. Is he going to pay to maintain those houses? Is he going to pay to insure them? Is he going to pay the property taxes? And, of course, now they’re tied down to one specific area because they have a house and if they don’t like their job and there isn’t another job available? They’re stuck.
Home ownership isn’t necessarily cheaper or better than renting. They may very well have been better off before the IRS let them know what they owed for that house.
Can’t they sell the house and do whatever they want with the money? Or rent it out and use that to pay for the maintenance/taxes, etc? Feels like it’s hard to argue against giving people a free house.
That being said, if even a small part of what is being said about him is true, then he’s a massive piece of shit.
I’d still take a free house from a massive piece of shit, tho.
Can’t they sell the house and do whatever they want with the money?
Possibly. If they didn’t sign some sort of contract agreeing not to do so and if there would be a market for that house. And then there’s just the psychological burden of having to give up a free house because it turns out you can’t actually afford to own a free house.
Or rent it out and use that to pay for the maintenance/taxes, etc?
That is not a simple thing. And it puts you legally on the line for a lot. That’s why corporations tend to do it.
Feels like it’s hard to argue against giving people a free house.
I can show you so many stories of people who inherit valuable things only to end up in more debt than they started with. Did MrBeast make sure all of those people actually were good at managing their money before he gave them a house? If they weren’t, did he give them some way to become financially literate? We have no idea because he won’t tell us. We also have no idea what will happen to these people and their houses in one year or five years or ten.
Fair enough, I see how it could all fall apart if not done properly. And based on what people are saying… it’s unlikely that he did things properly.
I’d still take a free house from a massive piece of shit, tho.
And that’s pretty much my argument.
Home ownership isn’t necessarily cheaper or better than renting.
If you’re given a house, paying property taxes and insurance is almost certainly better and cheaper than renting.
I agree with your other points and overall with your perspective, but not this one.
Typical property taxes run about 1-2% of the home’s overall value. Unless they were all given multi-million dollar mansions they’ll be paying like 2-4k a year in property taxes. That’s far less than the cost of renting a place of equivalent size basically anywhere. You can probably afford basic homeowner expenses on a job at McDonald’s if you own your place outright.
Well they are not forced to keep the house. They can sell it, or if they don’t want it at all, they can give it away. But then why did they sign up for it in the first place?
You are saying as if they were forced against their will to get a free house.
Would you say no to a free house? People do things against their interest all the time.
You also don’t know that they weren’t required to hold on to the house for a certain amount of time in order to accept the house. I would be surprised if there weren’t such conditions. Maybe you are financially literate enough to turn down a deal like that, they aren’t necessarily.
They’re also only one job loss away from a tax lien against the house they thought they could afford to live in because they got it for free.
You also don’t know they weren’t given ongoing support. We can both play this game.
Why wouldn’t that be made clear?
Obviously it would be better if he wasn’t making money off of it, but would it be better if he stopped?
Yes it would be. The accumulation of so much money into so few hands is a net evil, and his videos glamorize and are used to justify that evil. Even if some (and it’s always a small portion) of that accumulation is used for good ends it’s worse than if it weren’t allowed to accumulate in the first place.
Put more simply, if wealth inequality weren’t so out of control there would be much fewer people requiring the charity.
I agree, but he’s far from the enemy here, he has no money compared to the billionaires we should be fighting.
This is the kindest article I could find on his wealth and ot still brings the ethics of his money into question
https://screenrant.com/mr-beast-money-millions-rich-explained/
The people he helps are mostly part of the scam.
The random people in Africa that got wells drilled are part of the scam? His employees, sure, but I’m not arguing with that.
My guy, I’m willing to believe thus but you just can’t spew massive claims like this without proof. I’ve seen the accusation videos too and at best a handful of people there were plants but definitely not most. Just give me some links and I’ll easily believe it.
Just pay attention. There have been several articles about how the winners of a lot of his contests are family members of his cronies. They don’t get traction but I have no reason to doubt them.
“Trust me bro, do your own research”
Even if you’re right that’s still not at all helpful. Burden of proof is on the person making a claim.
Okay you claim he is the greatest thing ever. prove it.
The guy he mentally tortured by keeping him isolated would disagree
So his curing 1000 blind people video? Most of them were gonna get the surgery done anyway, he just made it happen faster
In exchange for being on video. Which is kinda gross. It’s making entertainment out of someone who needs help. If Jimmy was in it for good, he wouldn’t exploit the people he’s helping. He makes more money off each video than he spent. That’s exploitation
Most of them were gonna get the surgery done anyway, he just made it happen faster
Well, that’s good isn’t it?
In exchange for being on video.
I didn’t watch the video, but skimmed through it now. In the wide shot it shows around 200 people. Meaning 800 people got it without having to appear on video. It’s likely they just got the money and a question if they want to appear on a video. 20% said yes, 80% said no, still got the money. What’s wrong with that? Looks completely voluntary.
If Jimmy was in it for good, he wouldn’t exploit the people he’s helping.
In that video, it doesn’t look to me like he did. Clearly people got the money no strings attached, and an option to appear in a video in they want to, which most of them didn’t take.
He makes more money off each video than he spent.
Which gets spent on the next stunt. If not for the 1000 blind people video, he would have no money for the 100 free houses video, without which he would have no money for the 100 wells in Africa video, ad infinitum. If you say what he does cannot be packaged into profitable media, then that’s fine, but that means it can’t be done at all. Filming people getting helped is how more people get helped next time. As long as it’s voluntary for the people getting help, as it seems to be, I don’t see anything wrong with it.
I agree with many of his criticisms, but to me he seems far from actual problems with this world caused by politicians and corporations. A YouTuber making a show of helping people seems like the last thing wrong with this world today. And people wouldn’t need the help if we solved the actual issues.
Just because they were cut out of the video doesn’t mean it wasn’t filmed. I want to see what contract they signed before he payed for their surgery.

Guilty until proven innocent, eh?
Oh lordy.
That’s never a good sign.
Effectively an admission…😅
He certainly smiles like a sociopath.
Because he doesn’t smile, he snarls, we’ve just lost out prey instincts after being on the top of he food chain for so long.
Tell that to my chronic anxiety.
His smile doesn’t reach his eyes. If you cover his mouth he looks completely uninterested.
sign of a true sociopath
You don’t get to where he is by being normal. So his success alone is proof he is divergent. He should just own it and move on.
That whole underground bunker series is starting to get a little too reality TV like for me. I don’t watch him often but when it shows make it outside of his channel I end up catching glimpses.
Jaden animation recently won a million dollars to give to her subscribers.
But he pit a bunch of the YouTubers in a squid game competition which makes the ratings but isn’t a great look.
I’d watch that! A bunch of “influencers” get “killed off”, hopefully humiliated? Let them be exploited for money instead of just their victims? Let’s go!
Apparently a lot of people want to watch it because he’s still getting followers.
He’s finally cooked. Enjoy the long slow ride into irrelevance. Enjoy the fake friends fading away as the money tap dries up.
I mean he’s probably rich af and set for life
People like to pretend that karma is somehow real. It’s not. In real life, the bad guys win and live long and happy lives.
Karma is horseshit, yes. But I do feel a little nicer when I find out one of the mega wealthy is perpetually unhappy. It’s proof that all the money in the world can’t save people from themselves.
Their unhappy is not you and I’s unhappy. Not even close. They don’t know suffering. Their worst days would be nothing more than mild annoyances to us. They lack perspective, sure, but don’t ever think they’re miserable. They don’t know the meaning of the word.
Whatever you have to tell yourself as you chase the dream. Can’t buy your way out of being a human creature. There’s lots of history that shows all the money in the world can’t stop some folks from being miserable, angry fucks.
There’s lots of history
All that history is nothing but fairy tales to make unsuccessful people feel alright for not being absolute sociopaths. None of it is real. Those who have more than ~$5 million net worth are incapable of feeling misery in the same sense that you and I feel. They are insulated from those concerns and will never feel the depths of despair that the common man does. To pretend otherwise is sheer ignorance, even if coming out of place of vain optimism that we’re all somehow equal.
You’ll tell yourself that because you want to be like that, so you strive for it. You need to believe you’ll escape your essential humanity. You can’t. You won’t. Rich people are entirely the same exact creature we are. Cannot purchase your way out of that. Call history fairy tails all you want, but you won’t convince me, I’ve been on both sides of the coin. I know from first hand experience how utterly basic and human rich people are.
They are not unique or special in any way. They are just people. They have more nice stuff and they have power, but they are still just the same species of clever ape we all are. If they all died, they would just be replaced. We replace billionaires all the time. We treat the money as more important than any meat behind it anyway.
If I could do something to piss people off and make life changing money I’d probably do it
Want to know why karma is real? Karma isnt some mystical force that keeps the world in balance. If you live your life pissing people off, one day you will piss someone off who doesn’t take kindly to being pissed off. The more you do it, the more likely it is to happen to you.
And if you have screwed over enough folks to get ahead in life, it won’t really matter if you piss someone off who doesn’t take kindly to being pissed off. You will have already gotten ahead.
Oh what? They file a lawsuit that takes less than 2% of your net worth and takes 5+ years to occur, if it even is successful? Assuming it even comes to fruition, you will have plenty of time to distribute your assets or refinance so you never feel the effects.
People like Bernie Madoff are the exception, not the rule. For 99% of the rich fucks, even if they lose, they’ll come out smelling like roses and will still have enough capital to ensure they live a long, comfortable life
You may not want to face the uncomfortable truth, but karma is a myth to make the lower classes feel ok for not being sociopaths.
If this is your outlook on Life I recommend talking to a therapist in order to get a more balanced worldview.
Our mind is fixated on negative information but there are so many „good“ things happening in the world we don‘t see.
Quality of Life all around the world has steadily increased for many centuries.
News outlets dig for negative information because it gets more attention.
Humans are individuals but in many ways much alike. If you think of yourself as a „good“ person; chances are high that the people around you also are.
None of that has anything to do with karma not existing.
I adressed your statement „In real life bad guys win and life happy lives“
Worked for Notch! 🙃
Honestly, while I’m enjoying being vindicated, his main audience is children and the few adults I know who like him are “on that grind” and don’t care about ethics. He may take a hit in viewership, but it’s unlikely to effect his lifestyle. But we’ll see if sponsors continue to back him.
Mr. Beast is not cooked. This is pure copium pathetic copium. Seems like you aren’t mature enough to see the big picture.
I’m OOTL and the article is not really helping, what is going on with Mr. Beast? Why is he so hated atm?
he began in 2012 at 13 years old. Over two decades later
<Checks calendar>
20 years… In base 6?
Decade refers to decimal 10 right in the name.
There’s also old videos of Jimmy where he’s being openly misogynistic.
And it recently came out that after Ava moved out, Jimmy kept the problematic poster.
This is not a good guy.
I saw one a week ago that said it was Harvey Weinstein’s lawyer.
I saw one last month that said he represented Hitler at The Hague
The firm the lawyer is from is the top trial firm in the world. They don’t mind avoiding settlements. Lots of probably-guilty people hire them.
Wait, won’t Elmo’s lawyer EMBRACE sociopath claims?
