Oh look a rich person controlling other people with money. 🤮

[-] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

That sounds like what happens to me at work. I don't like it

A criminal living in jail to win 500k? It’s not like he can leave…..

[-] man_wtfhappenedtoyou@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Maybe he hasn't been caught yet

A 2.5M jet's gonna cost so much in maintenance, if the pilot gets it, it's gonna ruin them :|

[-] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 6 points 4 hours ago

Uh if you can pilot that jet and own it outright, you have a whole-ass business. They'll be fine.

[-] raze2012@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

yeah, at that point you just gotta sell it off. Hell, sell it off half price and you still get life changing money.

[-] ClanOfTheOcho@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

He'll have to sell it to cover his federal income tax bill. Or more likely mortgage it if he's planning his own business around the aircraft.

I really cannot wait until this guy's audience grows out of his stupid garbage. Though unfortunately, it's going to leave an entire generation of people who will value money over everything else.

Back during the George Floyd protests I was watching a live stream from NYC. Several people in the comments were saying the store owners should shoot the protesters if they broke windows. I asked chat, "Do you really value property over human life?" No one said "no", and three explicitly responded "yes!" to me. I'll never forget that, I was a bit shocked.

Dude you obviously have not seen game shows from well forever the last 50 60 years at very least. Mr beast is just a continuation of those game shows. I for one had never really heard or watched him before beast games came out. And then I started saying more and more of his stuff. But it's always been a part of game show culture and everything else culture to value the game and the money over anything else. However even watching those games and even his games you'll see quite a few people that value other things over the money.

[-] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

I was born in the '70s. I grew up on those game shows. They do not hold a candle to the brazen contempt for humanity that Mr Beast videos have.

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 hours ago

Huh. You must be watching something far different then what I've seen.

Yes because that doesn't already exist...

I dunno, I think he definitely shaped that thinking, not the horrible capitalistic systems we all live under

[-] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

No the horrible capitalistic systems we are living under right now are shaped and controlled by the 70 and 80 somethings that currently have a strangle hold on the government.

In other words the FUCKING BOOMERS!

The funniest/saddest thing is hearing stories from niche youtubers that did one of his events talking about kids they meet finding out about it and immediately asking them for money. Just an instant switch from bored disinterest to excited begging.

Fuck... I had a thought that ended with that concept, just earlier today. My end-thought was kinda like, "would you walk away from Omelas with me?"

It was a day for me; but what a small (fucked up) world

Mr Beast is a cunt

and a douche

[-] Digit@lemmy.wtf 1 points 2 hours ago

I hate what they're doing.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 31 points 19 hours ago

Because he's just a boy in a basement. Don't judge, you'd keep a boy in a basement if you could, too.

[-] BitUnWise@programming.dev 6 points 10 hours ago

If you criticize him for having a boy in a basement that just means you're jealous of his success

[-] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 10 points 16 hours ago

I upgraded to an Attic Lad -ages- ago. Those squirrels never knew what hit them.

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 1 points 9 hours ago

We know that Trump & Epstein would. No, they don't care about the gender of a child.
