What's with the recent traction for the Mr Beast hate train? There have been a few posts lately talking about how bad this guy is.
There’s a part 1 to this video that goes into it. Basically:
Really the biggest deal I think is the illegal lotteries. Because those are actual criminal acts
Part 1 also shows some evidence of fake contestants (who are actually actors) that end up winning the prize.
Just people finding out that Santa isn't real but in fact a company which uses psychological warfare to sell you something that is bad for you.
A story as old as capitalism.
Since nobody pointed it out yet there's also controversy because his friend was being inappropriate with and allegedly touching kids using the fact that they work with Mr beast. That just came out before all this. And Mr beast fired them, but there's a lot of discord messages that Mr beast was in on as well where some of the inappropriate stuff towards kids was happening as well
