Fuck I hope its true, he’s been setting off alarm bells with me since day one and I couldn’t put my finger on why. Never mind the whole “do a song and dance and I’ll buy you new eyes” thing.
His regular monetization of giving desperate people money has always rubbed me the wrong way. Of course they’re going to take it and agree to be on YouTube, they really need it
Holy shit tell me about it, but I kinda thought maybe I was just being paranoid about it because of all the money that he has put towards philanthropic things.
I hope he gets fined hard for all the crimes he has done! He makes me angry 😤
The problem is that kids obviously don’t care about this, and parents will dump the iPad or phone on their kids so they don’t have to deal with them, thus keeping his channel alive.
Funny thing: On modern reddit you would be downvoted to oblivion because the majority of the current userbase is exactly children raised with an iPad in their hand.
Souless eyes, like a doll’s eyes.
I don’t see why people were larping that shit to begin with until realized the audience is are teenagers.
Just another celeb milking the system. Stop giving them attention, they will die off on their own lol
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"
"The autographed piece is genuine”. (fraud imo)
The PIECE is genuine. The autograph isn’t! Lmao
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.
how do you convert “pedophile” into PDF?
Adobe Acrobat can do anything these days
With some sort of Adobe tool I suppose. The use of TLAs by the US crowd is becoming increasingly confusing to me.
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.
Right click on him and click “print.” Then where you pick a printer choose “convert/print to PDF.”

My kid has come across his videos several times, the algorithm absolutely pushes his stuff to kids. I haven’t known about him for very long, but he does create some interesting videos. Never watched any that were giveaways or stuff but I have seen some of the contest and destination ones. They were obviously edited videos, but it’s a shame to also hear the games and people used are all setup as well. Guess we’re about to add another horrible YT personality to the canceled list?
Same. My kid isn’t into it, thankfully, but he was the topic of the week a fews ago.
This came out before the Kris news, my guess is to add to his “look how perfect I am” persona since it was tarnished by this former employee.
Dude is almost certainly a kiddy diddler too

Is there some evidence to back this up?
False accusation are counter productive esp when it related to egregious crime like this.
So if we are gonna do it, it better be true…
Uh oh, looks like the Mr Beast Media Management Machine is hot on the case!
Or people don’t want empty accusations…
Esp in involving serious crimes.
Every false accusation is used to discredit actual victims of crime.
It is fucking disgusting how much false accusations we have by bad faith actors while real victims are not taken seriously because their story is not worthy of “news”
People need to get better and judge this on evidence, no how good click bait it is.
His long time cohost is a groomer
- That’s a different person.
- I thought that was already debunked as alleged victim said they were not a victim?
Edit: victim said it was not grooming but inappropriate conversations did happen. Hopefully we get them posted here. But either way that allegations against MrBeast’s staff have merit and should be checked out by law enforcement
YouTubers do things that are scripted, and kids like to watch them? What a nothingburger
If you actually watch the entire thing, it’s clear that yeah it’s not something to cancel over but it’s also worth saying. Mr. Beast’s brand is all about two things: it’s all real and viewers (just by subscribing, interacting) can win a lot of cash or items worth a lot of cash. The next thing to understand is Mr. Beast’s main target demographic is children, and that never plays well when it comes to these kinds of things.
Mr. Beast would market his candy bar as more healthy and also if kids buy them they can gamble for a ticket to get a chance to be in a video and win yadda yadda yadda. He says part of his motivation is to defeat obesity, yet his chocolate candy bar had twice the amount of sugar then the competitor he mentions. He isn’t altruistic, he’s cashing in on these kids and using a FALSE moral high ground to do it!
The more you watch the clearer the picture becomes, and no it’s not shocking; Mr. Beast is running a company to make money. Cool, no worries. It’s not so cool however when it is based off of manipulating kids. SO MUCH OF HIS VIDEOS are edited, faked, scripted. SO MANY OF THE WINNERS are friends, family, and employees of the company even though it is advertised as random viewers. The editing is done in part to preserve this charade. Later in the video he talks about Mr. Beast wanting to participate in known scams and having to be talked out of them, it’s pretty gross (especially keeping in mind the target demo.)
It is essentially reality TV for kids, but this doesn’t end at the TV show. It stretches into these kid’s candy, the fast food (mr beast burger), the lotteries and gambling, it’s a bad look. Mr. Beast is the wrong guy with the right amount of money and it shows. It’s weird to see so many people jumping to defend this extremely wealthy person who takes advantage of his viewer base of children.
If this video wasn’t enough for you, try this one next, FAR worse: https://discuss.whatever.social/r/TikTokCringe/comments/1edezhy/the_lowdown_on_mr_beast_beast_games_for_those_out/
