This guy is a giant turd with googly eyes slapped on it.
Googly eyes look more alive and soulful than he does by a long shot.
He does not smile with his eyes and I find that unsettling.
It’s a sociopath thing.
Yeah, if you hold up your hand to cover the lower-half of his face, it’s a different expression entirely.
Dead eyes, like a dolls eyes.
Doesn’t seem to be livin,’ until he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white, and then…
dun DUN.
That’s it, isn’t it! Such a strange look
His eyes are a weird mix of emotionlessness and angry glaring
I still don’t know who this cuck is besides a YouTube star that got rich off kids whose parents babysit them with tablets. How anyone can stand looking at the guys face or hear him talking is beyond me. His face just oozes sociopath / narcissist.
No, you nailed it.
He is a narcissist of the highest order. Exploited kids with illegal and rigged lotteries.
His early videos, clips I’ve seen in videos about him, show he’s a weird sociopath.
One thing about him I saw in a Lemmy comment a couple months back, is that in every picture of him smiling, if you hide his mouth you’re left with his lifeless eyes, it’s like he was told how you’re supposed to smile when you’re cheerful so he goes through the motions but he’s not entirely sure what the point is. It works with all the pictures of him I came across since then, including the thumbnail of this post.
Tbf smiling on command is hard.
Sure, but in every picture? Including some where he’s supposed to actually have fun?
Ad hominem
Maybe, but also relevant.
His brand has used our software service for the last couple of years, and his credit card declined the other day. I got a good chuckle.
This guy is going to eventually be a video on Joon the King.
No one with as much money as he has is a good person.
He’s basically just doing ethical bumfights, exploiting the victims of capitalism for YouTube views and thereby increasing his own wealth further.
Ethical?
it’s an interesting moral question
if i give someone money and that alleviates their poverty, is that an ethical action? i think so. you are eliminating harm by reducing hunger, providing shelter, etc.
if i give someone money and that alleviates their poverty, but i do it for my own personal gain, is that an ethical action? you are still eliminating harm but you are doing it for an amoral reason.
ethical action, amoral motivation
then there’s the perspective of by taking advantage of this individual, you are doing your part in perpetuating an unjust system. you are playing the role of the opiate of the masses. distracting and comforting those who are at the bottom of the pyramid.
having said all that, i think it’s still more ethical than bumfights. although i couldn’t tell you if it was ethical or not by its own
Defining ethics is a question as old as philosophy itself.
He isn’t generally elevating randos out of poverty though. I don’t have citations but my understanding is most of the big payouts he has done went to people in his friend group despite the implication that it was not.
Based on some interviews there is nothing ethical about what this guy is doing. Based on one case I think he should be in jail
The sleep deprivation guy seemed like he could have a lawsuit against Mr. Beast. At least based on what he was saying, it sounded like what they did to him should have been illegal
should have
Exactly, these sociopath dipshits are skirting the law on technicalities but any reasonable person would agree they should be behind bars
Sources?
Some portions are not easy to listen to
You’re right, maybe not the best descriptor, but it’s a hard concept to properly articulate.
Man with money finds people in need and gives them a dump truck of cash to ostensibly make their lives better. Paying for surgeries for people, buying meals for the hungry, etc. is an “ethical” alternative to paying homeless people to fight each other for entertainment. But it doesn’t change the fact that it is still exploitative content that commodifies the suffering of others for his own enrichment. Doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. I can’t help but think he would hardly be so “generous” if he was losing more than he was getting out of it.
Not to mention he is being lionized as this capitalist success story to show that the system works, absolving the wealthy of guilt, while his success is entirely based around the fact that capitalism is failing the majority who live under it. And all of the feel-good narratives just make it easier to ignore all of the people he hasn’t helped.
And now that he’s made himself into a brand, he can leverage that brand to hawk overpriced, moldy food and grow even richer. And people out there are buying his brand because they believe it somehow supports a better cause than buying the overpriced, not-as-moldy food from the corporation he’s competing with.
He wouldn’t be able to do it if he was losing money though.
It’s such a tricky subject.
If you don’t use it to make money you can’t do it anymore.
So is making money off it bad if you use that money to doore.
If he wants to live ethically, he should be losing money until he is reduced down to his own level of need. Mr. Beast is supposedly a Christian and that is what the ethics of that religion dictate. In an ideal economy, people shouldn’t be able to hoard wealth either.
One just needs to ask why he stops where he does with his giving, and why not go further to do more good if that’s supposed to be the point? Or why not use that money to stop these problems at the source rather than just providing temporary aid to a tiny subset of victims?
He’s a rich psychopath. Throw him in with the rest.
But he hired lawyers to prove that he isn’t
interesting strategy to hire a lawyer for that instead of a psychologist
It has to be on the top of rich-psycopathic responses to being called a psycopath
yeah it’s definitely a contender for first place
To the pits of wealth and opulence?
He’s basically clickbait distilled into human form. If people stop paying attention to him he’ll wither and die
I wish we could do that with Musk
You can ignore Elon, but Tesla, SpaceX, and Twitter are still generating revenue, plus there’s Neuralink and Boring.
Without eyeballs there is no MrBeast.
His PR got confusingly bad recently. He went from someone that was a bit cringe but nobody hates to someone who has done a lot of good but still has an employee that was accused of sexual assault*.
What’s the next thing to do to to save face? Start a brand with ‘suicide forest’ Logan Paul and ‘Thick of it’ KSI.
I don’t get it, he had such a good thing going where he got essentially unlimited views.
- tbh I don’t really keep updated with popular celebrities details might be off, the last time I watched Mr beast was the Insane Asylum one 5 years ago.
He’s not done a lot of good at all. He exploits the poor, often doesn’t pay them, and is selling trash food to children.
That’s ok, if you wash it down with the included bottle of Prime the extra blast of potassium will balance out the mold (source: trust me bro)
Looks like an asshole. I bet he sounds like one too, but I intend to never hear his voice.
He has this fake used car salesman smile that rubs me the wrong way…
Psychopathy? The mouth is smiling, the eyes are cold.
The mold holds extra nutrients.
Blue cheese burger
don’t google that, i learned my lesson with the waffle
I’ve had one of those. They’re okay. I’m not a fan of blue cheese though so I didn’t really like it.
You ever have one without blue cheese? Pretty good.
A blue cheese burger without blue cheese? No, I like my burgers with cheese.
i like my cheese moldy bruh
I’ve never even watched anything this guy has done. For a long time I didn’t even know who he was when I saw stories about him. Between him and the Paul’s idk what they are even famous for but I know they are pieces of shit
When I saw the images…not a good seal between the yeasted up cracker and the cheese maybe? Dint really care other than f mrbeast
the yeasted up cracker
People called me this in college.
Dead eyes…like a doll’s eyes.
