Current Events > Can someone explain the Mr. Beast hate? As an outsider who doesn't watch him

(+) Yeah! (+)

I dont get it.

Hes profiting off of donating money to people? Is that really it? Seems like a lame thing to hate. Yeah Im not gonna idolize him but Im not gonna hate him. Does he like exploit or mock poor people or something?

Is that the guy who's beating every n64 game and I do mean all of them?
Or is it the guy who can't win a chess game against just a couple pieces?

Everytime I see a thumbnail he makes, I want to shove my fist through the screen

I have never watched any of his videos, but he is a rich guy who does publicity stunts

Mr. Beast seems like the kind of guy who'd pay two homeless guys a thousand bucks each to box each other on the street.

Apparently he goes into debt making the videos because he puts the money he makes off of them back into his business.

But he's somehow made people hate charity.

You know you can block channels? I do it all the time.

I dont know anything about him and Ive never watched anything with him in it. I dont even know what he looks like.

But I ordered a burger from Mr Beast burger or whatever, and that burger SUCKED.

Never thought I'd see a Thabeast721 reference here but here it is

Chess.com has bots named after popular internet people. I don't recognize a single one of them out of the ten. But I think I saw somebody play chess named Mr. Beast.

Is this the guy?

People don't like that he shows his charity. I don't understand he is helping people. Fuck all if he puts on camera .

mr beast is not a bad person

but the things he does are bandaid on a broken arm

the curing blindness is great

but stuff like team treas and team seas dont accomplish ANYTHING

if he really wants to promote change he needs to use his money and influence to go after politicians

I don't know him.
I don't have anything against him.
But I hate those stupid fake reaction faces in the thumbnails for his videos.

He's raising his eyebrows like he's just won a million dollars and cupping his mouth into an o-shape like a small child who just heard another kid say a bad word in front of the classroom. I've got to click on this thumbnail to see what could have possibly provoked such a genuine reaction from him. Yep, yep, yep. Apparently, people are gullible enough to be taken in by that -- so props to him on the effective marketing.

People act like if you film a good deed it wasnt genuine and youre just doing it for internet points

but iirc he uses the money he gets from video views to keep giving more money away to people and films that so its like an infinite money loop

If you do something charitable you should shout it from the fucking rooftops

encourages other people to do the same

This sums it up pretty well. I think a lot of people including myself reflexively hate rich guys doing publicity stunts, but at the end of the day he does seem to be doing a lot of good stuff for people so the only thing I can hate him for is that mustache

This was my understanding of it

He has a very punchable face. It's my dream to just plant my fist there like a meteor and extinction the dinosaurs. Of course I would never actually do this, it's just a fantasy I have. I am very anti violence. Don't be violent, it's not good.

I respect him for using his wealth to help the poor. But Im sick and tired of seeing his videos being the first thing i see everytime i get on YouTube.

He used to make fun of little kids intro videos on Youtube and would advertise drinking bleach.

I don't think anyone "hates" him. I'm sure there are people that aren't fans of his, but you'd have to be the most miserable person on earth to hate him.

Its pretty ****ing disgusting that hes getting fame & money out of doing charitable acts like helping blind people recover their eyesight.

Id rather the government help them but we have a stupid healthcare system.

Id rather he do the charitable acts anonymously.

Or Id rather he be like the rest of us and not help them to begin with. That would be preferable instead of him getting YouTube clicks. I hate him!!! Mr. Sign of the Beast 666 amirite??

Yeah criticize him for that But people complain about the good shit he does

He has a punchable face.
His voice is annoying.
He does charitable acts for publicity not for genuine intentions.

But most of all, he is the anti 2013 YouTuber. I hate this stupid family friendly shit show that YouTube has become. I miss the days when Filthy Frank, iDubbbz and MaxMoeFoe content was acceptable.
