anything he's done/will do will always be clouded by the amount he gives to charity, because people seem to have this idea in their heads that you can't be a bad person in any way whatsoever if if you donate to charity

You forgot to mention that he invests heavily into NFTs and crypto, while also making enviromental donations and etc,as if that offsets it

You cannot cancel influencers with largely incel fanbase because they just don’t care what he has done.

As humans, we have good and bad sides. It's called life. There are no saints. The only difference, is that influencers do all this in the public eye and it's open to criticism. I really take all this drama with a grain of salt.

“It wasn’t transphobic it was just a meme” yeah… a transphobic meme… the whole point of the meme was making fun of trans people

What bothers me about his response to being confronted about transphobia is that the “identifying as an attack helicopter” meme was transphobic in the first place. You can’t say “it’s just a meme” when the main point the meme is trying to make is “trans = stupid/wrong”

i feel like there's alot of youtubers/influencers that are way more problematic compared to mr.beast. he makes interesting videos that are very original ideas, so i don't see him ever really getting cancelled.

correct me if i’m wrong but i’m pretty sure it’s Netflix that green lit the “squid game reality show” and not the creator himself. like netflix has the rights to the name “squid game” and so they can freely create what they want using it

He is the type of person that everyone likes but he gives me a bad vibe.

I don't agree that credit should be considered as a bonus. As a content creator of any form, that being either the host of a YT video, an editor, an artist, or any other job to do with this, credit should be something that is agreed upon within a contract, but not a bonus. People always make it out that you are going to go famous from getting credit, meanwhile most people don't even seem to care, let alone look in the 'show more' bit of a description. Now if Mr. Beast or whomever does not want to give credit, or the creator does not want to be mentioned or have credit given, this could all be fine, but all in all, it should be discussed. It being a bonus makes it sounds like you're getting paid by exposure, but we all know exposure ain't worth a lot unless its negative.

The fact that he refused to even give a simple apology for his past homophobia and transphobia is very telling, for me anyway. Like, how hard would it have been to just say sorry and move on? Instead he decided to use excuses. Just because "it was a meme" or "it was a different time back then" doesn't make it ok, nor does it mean that it doesn't negatively affect people. It wouldn't surprise me at all to find out that Jimmy is a total bigot behind closed doors, and only holds it back to protect his public image as KZfaq's new Golden Boy. I also find it really weird that he runs a burger joint and heavily invests into cryptocurrency and NFTs, yet he also claims to care about the environment. It's just a bit strange and counter-intuitive imo. I also find it really annoying that you're not allowed to criticize him online at all without his fans hate mobbing you. They'll spam you with crap like "yOu'Re JuSt JeAlOuS oF HiS mOnEy!!1!!!" or "YoU'Re A cLoUtChAsEr, yOu'Re OnLy PoStInG ThIs CaUsE hE HaS mOrE SuBs ThAn YoU!!1!!!" or of course the ever popular "BuT JiMmY's A gOoD PeRsOn, He DonAtEs To ChArItY!!1!!! WhAt HaVe YoU DoNaTeD???????". I mean, to be fair, the vast majority of his fans are children so this sort of behavior is to be expected. That doesn't make it any less obnoxious tho. His fanbase, and many other people online for that matter, just can't even begin to comprehend that someone can donate to charity and still be a bad person. It's cool that donates so much to charity, but I still greatly dislike him as a content creator and as a human being. I just don't think that he's as good of a person as he'd like us all to believe he is. Sure he may not be nearly as bad as some other people online, but he's also nowhere near the best. His fans would have you believe that Jimmy is the second coming of Jesus Christ, but that's just not the truth at all.

I think that these issues are so minute compared to what other KZfaqrs do. Like other KZfaqrs legit lie, scam, or even have predatory behavior toward their fans and they don't even have as big of a following as Mr.Beast. I understand we should always question who is giving us their charity, but considering the state of the world today, I just don't think he's as bad as most people out there who also give charity.

People talk about him like he’s a saint so he seems untouchable. People don’t wanna rock the boat. He’s making bank of all his charity for sure. Easy to give money away when you’re becoming superrich

The entire existence of this man has always perplexed me. Not surprised to see this lmao

as a trans person i will never forget the attack helicopter jokes. genuinely. like that has made it so difficult for myself and so many other trans people to be taken seriously. it's the worst and i still am in awe about how nobody seems to care

My kids love Mr. Beast and before my son got his tonsils out I picked up Mr. Beast burgers for dinner. Both of them said it wasn't really good. Granted I drove an hour to get them and they had been in a steamy bag.

4:18 Angelika's editor suddenly in tears

As someone who’s had Crohn’s for 10+ years, you are absolutely not supposed to starve yourself. It is really bad for your intestines lol. I’ll do intermittent fasting sometimes but I really have to watch myself to make sure I don’t overdo it. But regardless I don’t think him doing that video is harmful to anyone but himself. People do crazy stuff on the internet all the time. It’s not his job to be a role model for people

he's SO clearly, evidently, obviously, and inevitably the type to be super transphobic and homophobic behind closed doors and it sucks that if he says it out in the open, no one will bat and eye cause of his "philanthropic" videos that clearly arent his ideas (simply the sponsor's that they know will garner views). he's always given me the ick lowkey

I love the glass of wine in the background. That’s a vibe✨

Shane Dawson for awhile was uncancellable and then everything came crashing down, so I'd say no? Then again beast is far bigger in terms of sub count.

Mr. Beast’s content rubs me the wrong way, although he has only gotten on my radar in the last couple years. It’s for a similar reason I never got into the “vlog squad” - it isn’t grounded in reality enough, and feels insincere. I understand that David Dobrik has a backlog of terrible, overtly offensive content that is only being called out now because it’s no longer socially acceptable. And I know I partially never got into them because, as a brown girl, I didn’t feel welcome in that space. But I do think there are still a lot of parallels: Mr. Beast probably has a similarly young/male audience as David (hence why he’s hard to cancel unless something huge happens), he throws around large sums of money “generously”, people that used to work with them have conflicting stories as to how toxic he is…it just feels so “nice guy”. Like, you don’t have to throw that you’re a nice, generous person in our face…you could just *be* a nice, generous person. And I can’t help but think nice, generous people would own when they’ve been assholes in the past…you have all that money - address your bad behavior and donate generously to the Trevor Project. Red flags are going up. And I’ve dated enough mediocre men to pay attention when it happens.

When Mr. Beast spat out the food he didn’t go on to continue the challenge, he stated in his video that him taking the bite would be him ceding defeat. The only reason he spat it out in the first place is because of “refeeding syndrome,” so he basically didn’t want to make himself sick by consuming a large amount of calories after eating none. He did not spit out the food in order to continue the challenge

love your collection of drinks on the tables, my desk looks the same :)))))))

I think the internet just lacks nuance. People are either good or bad, no in between. Drag the makeup community and make tweets about not f*cking your cat: bad. Make videos donating A Lot of money: good. People see Jimmy doing questionable things but ignore because he's philanthropic so in their eyes he can't do anything wrong.

His content rubs me the wrong way, so I don’t watch it, but I don’t think he should be canceled just for being over the top and obnoxious.

The helicopter joke excuse doesn’t check out bc the meme and joke has ALWAYS been transphobic.

Youre the research queen! You put so much effort into these videos! 😁 Currently binging your whole channel!

I’d defo recommend reading more about Taylor Lorenz - she’s doing amazing journalism and she didn’t d*xx that twitter account, she shared her name (which was publicly available if you looked for it). That Twitter account constantly tries to get LGBT people fired from their jobs and d*xxes them to high heaven for no reason, so really they’re the hypocrites for crying about their name being exposed. Lorenz is a champion of LGBT creators and is fighting hard against right-wing bigots, she’s great!

wow so early 🥹 angelika stan since ✨“scamella” ✨

I'm not familiar with cake businesses but in illustration you always have a fee in your contract that the other person has to pay if they suddenly decide against your finished illustration. Never ever start working on something without a contract that has this in it.

I’m recovering from anorexia and his video oh my god ?? i’ve been recovering for a year and even i found it triggering - my ed voice piped up with “if mr beast can fast for (18?) days and you can’t, you were never sick in the first place” which is so gross and highly damaging for people with Eds. I know we are not his target audience, i have never watched a Mr Beast video, but i saw it all over twitter like you said :( makes me so sad that such a big creator would be so careless

I just think his fans are too young? Like my little brothers (5&8) are the only people I know that watch him and they obviously wouldn’t go around and “cancel” him 😭

love the new thumbnail style✨✨

Ive know of Mr. Beast for a while however the first time one of his videos came on my suggested was the other day. It was his no food challenge he did recently and all it did was trigger my old ed. My fault for not reading the title and just let it auto-play, but still not the best first impression.

Wow you really blew up since I saw your channel, congrats!

I think he doesn't really have ill intentions when it comes to this stuff, but he's an adult man with a lot of influence so he should at least put certain things more into consideration. As in "Is this linked to a serious major issue?" - "Will it negatively influence a lot of people?" - "Will this hurt people physically and mentally?" It's not about the "People will get offended by this" thing, if people want to be angry, they will always be people that will be angry. There will always be people with sometimes specific triggers that are maybe not as common as others and you can't make something perfect but it's not about "Cancel culture", saying that certain things are triggering to a, unfortunately, big group of people is supposed to bring awareness and maybe make people a little bit more empathatic and sensitive to certain topics.

I personally subscribe to the belief that one cannot get to the top without some controversy and/or damage. So to me, it is not a surprise that there are allegations against him, nor will I be surprised if they turn out to be true. I just think he's done more to help people than a lot of the one pointing fingers, so I don't really see the point of judging.

I actually could not believe how the comment section to the not eating video was so positive

girl this thumbnail is so funny i love it

He might be a nice guy. He gives to charity and stuff, but for whatever reason he just gives me bad vibes. Theres just something about him that I don’t trust. It’s off putting but I can’t explain what it is. I don’t like the homophobic and transphobic stuff though.

The video about him not eating should honestly not be a problem. I understand that some of his behavior can be triggering, but he was very clear throughout the video that this shouldn’t be done without strict supervision by a doctor and he was only doing it to monitor his health as I believe he has Crohn’s disease. And he spit the food out after he ate it upon the recommendation of his doctors not to have the first thing he eats when reintroducing food to be something carb-heavy, which a burger would be. Some people took the video as a great way to lose weight but that’s 100% not what his intention was. Also the Mr Beast Burger issue is sort of a common issue with ghost kitchen restaurants. Quality varies depending on who’s preparing the order. The only thing Jimmy is actually responsible for is the menu and it may not be great, but that isn’t a cancellable offense.

“I’m not gay but $20 is $20” is such a common joke among men. How is that homophobic?

Bruh my siblings attacked me the other day because I said I don't particularly like him and that just because he does all these charities videos doesn't make him a good person.

Here's the thing, people really tried to get JAMES GUNN fired for "offensive jokes" and he got reinstated so that's how I know "cancel culture" is just a bunch of virtue signaling. There's always going to be this DISCONNECT between gen z and Millennials/past generations I think because one people wanna overcorrect the past which is understandable, and two they just WON'T understand (this is shown when people on TikTok yelled at Trisha for cosplaying as Snooki like COME ON bro that's screaming tell me your age without telling me your age) what the internet was like back in the day, how people spoke, what they were like cause it WAS a different TIME and that's okay. YELLING at the people who spoke a certain way back in the day with "THAT'S NO EXCUSE TIME ISN'T AN EXCUSE" does nothing to solve the issue. Learning is what solves the issue. The reason why we don't really say "that's so gay" now? Because people LEARNED and LISTENED. Rather than just yelled at each other like you see now. You need to let the PEOPLE who are the TARGETS of the words SPEAK for THEMSELVES and don't speak FOR THEM. That just does nothing.

Edtwt is literally saying he’s the goal and are trying to beat his fast :/

the eating one was out of line for me

Idk much about mr Beast but i've always wondered where all the money comes from and whether the Lucky ones to recieve a gift actually recieved the gifts and whether they got better or worse from it

oo 4 minutes after !! commenting 4 engagement. but mainly for pheobe

the fact of it is, no one really gets cancelled... or rather they do, but it's meaningless. They allll bounce back, oftentimes better than before.

I feel like this could be a series about other youtubers as well

Hey Angelika. Great video! I gotta admit that I haven't been feeling your content lately but I love this alot. You were really concise and straight to the point with the situation and your commentary and I really liked that. If it'd be possible, I'd appreciate it if you did long form content once in a while. Like taking a topic, researching it and making a detailed video on it. I saw Petty Paige's recent content style and I've been loving it and I'm sure if you did something similar to that but in your own style and with your personality, it'd do really great. Just a suggestion though. The drama commentary space isn't what it used to be and many people are losing interest on those topics (JC, JS, Shane, Gabbi, Tati etc) so perhaps pivoting your content away from drama and more towards commentary would be great. Like for instance, there was this stuff with Big Brother and racist microaggressions on the show so maybe you could do some research and make a video about say racism on reality TV or something of the sort. It'd cost time and require a lot of energy but I believe pivoting your content a little would help you bring in much more audience. It's just a thought though. Regardless, this was a great video ❤️

I'm going to ignore the rest, but for the last bit, triggering is mostly the responsibility of those who can be triggered by things. I've never had an ED but it's a very physically uncomfortable subject for me to here about as like a current thing that is taking place, so i read that title and scrolled away. I think if Mr beast used a vague title and just sprung things on viewers then that would be more problematic. The title is the trigger warning, just because it doesn't say Trigger Warning doesn't mean you weren't advised about the contents of the video.

I don’t see your videos on the main page anymore:(

i hate being early yall coment pls 😭 also ily angelika

The glass of wine on ur nightstand is giving me life

I recommend watching a video on Mr. Beast by a youtuber named "The Kavernacle" if your interested in why some people don't like him and how his charity work isn't the amazing selfless thing he presents it as.

"toilet cake" is what I think a "urinal puck" is called LOL caught me OFF GUAAAARD

You can healthily live off of a liquid diet for a reasonable amount of time. I don't watch Mr. Beast so I don't know what diet he was going by in the 30 day/no eat challenge. But when I was in the hospital with pancreatitis & diabetic ketoacidosis, they put me on a clear liquid diet. And I was there for a week. Like I was able to have broth, clear-ish juice (such as apple juice), jello (which I didn't eat bc the texture makes me gag), sherbet, popsicles, etc. With that said, I'm not backing him up for what he did or anything like that. I genuinely have no opinion on him as I do not watch him. But clearly he went about it the wrong way if there is backlash. I just wanted to put it out there that you CAN healthily go on a "liquid diet" and still have energy, be healthy, etc. if you are doing it for health improvement reasons. You just have to look it up and make sure you are accessing every food/drink that is under what is allowed for a liquid diet, as clearly some foods are not purely liquid (i.e popsicles) but still count.

whos mr beast

Him brushing off the "attack helicopter" meme as just a meme makes me think hes still transphobic bc bro i knew that shit was inappropriate when it was popping off n i was like 14 surely u as a grown ass man can look back on that n realize it was super transphobic n apologize for it instead of saying it was just a meme n also the use of slurs n no formal apology for it is a major red flag like even w an apology as a queer person i would be hesitant but ur really gonna be saying the f slur w ur whole ass chest n pretend it didnt happen....

Can we stop giving terrible people success? Literally I’ve never met anyone half as bad as most online personalities

Just Commenting for the algorithm 💚

Some people watch the morning news, I watch Angie

funny i see this now because me and my boyfriend just talked about his 30 days not eating challenge and how badly that video, even the title, triggered both of our eating disorders. not to say hes responsible for that but it still rubbed us the wrong way

I just have no interest in Mr. Beast. I think the videos and projects are largely just gimmicky. However I don’t see him as risky or mortally/ethically dubious like David Dobrik. Overall it seems like his responses to his mistakes/controversies are plausible that and that the missteps were innocent… it’s great he donates to charities, I just don’t feel the desire to support him or watch his content…

the wine, oj & water 👌🏻

Love from Nepal 🇳🇵 MrBeast fans 💪😎🔥

this ironic now

I don't think he's the worst tbh like yeah homophobia and transphobia is not ok obviously but at least he's not like that one youtubers who screams racist/misogynistic sht on stream.

Coment for that algorithm 👌🏻

He actually hasn’t done anything wrong though

I must be giving Angelika insane watch time. I always have to rewind to hear what she said because I get distracted by how pretty she is

But then again a CEO of a supermarket and KZfaq job isn’t ran the same way. A supermarket CEO doesn’t get online and talk to them and tell them they love them and play off the emotions and honestly banking on the fact a viewer does feel connected to them. You said he called them out to hangout with him also. Sounds like he made a call to who his viewers? On his platform?

the bookshelf background 🙃

Red Robin makes the mr beast it sucks having to deal with our own Business and then having to stop and make this whole other company’s food on top of also making someone else’s pizzas so when a mr beast comes up we could care less how we prepare it just get it off the screen so we can actually do our job for the company we work for not some internet dude

MrBeast ♥️♥️♥️👈

Good reporting of both sides in the video. But some allegations are so stupid I cannot. In the fasting video he literally says verbatim not to try it and actively discourages it and shows the negative effects. So how is he promoting EDs exactly? And the proceeds from the squid games video (and literally all his other videos) go towards his charities and his future videos. Twitter is so fucking dumb istg The amount of philanthropy this man has done is to be commended and he has shown time and time again that he is a good person in the public eye. He deserves everything he has ❤️

I thought it was Netflix who did the squid Game Show, not the creator because they have the right to the Name

Mr. Beast is hypocritical in the way most people are when it comes to the environment. It's just disappointing and sad to see someone with such a large platform being this way. Animal agriculture is known for destroying the environment. Yet he continues to sell meat in his fast food chain and was even sponsered by dairy at one point. People don't like it when others call him out for this tho because most people eat factory farmed meat...

Instantly clicked when I saw this post!!

Some of the most hateful people I know are also the most charitable. I don't know if it's the same case with Mr. Beast, but in the case of the people I know, they're so charitable because they can then go be as awful as they want and point to the good things they've done when they're called out for the shit things they've done. It's just a tool they use to manipulate people.

I feel like when they say he isn’t as involved in the process as he expected I feel like he meant he wasn’t thinking of or planing videos

❤

The spitting the food out with him probs wasn’t to do with eating disorders as a symptom of crohns is vomiting and having a lack of appetite which can cause a sort of disgust towards food s him splitting the food out is natural for his disease. That being said I still don’t agree with the video but as someone with Crohn’s myself sometimes we can forget that simple things like spitting food out could contribute someone else’s eating disorder. But overall the video was bad idea anyway

What is not homophobic and transphobic these days 😑😑😑

Threaten us for engagement

everytime i hear about him he always over promising people or homopbic and his fans eat it up with the bare minimum

Commenting for the engagement 💜

I watch a lot of Mr beast videos and I have suffered with eating disorders and Imo he should have maybe put a tigger warning but in my experience people will ignore warnings to purposely trigger themselves so i’m not sure if that would have helped much, it’s a tricky situation cause he has young fans that might not know about anorexia and that could be the first time they are introduced to it, I think he 100% shouldn’t have said how much weight he was losing

You mad/ or jealous? Stop trying to expose a man who has done a lot of good for a lot of people because he doesn’t talk the way you do.

I honestly can't stand Mr Beast

He also donated 100k to an anti autism charity
