No matter what, the amount of money, contests, and just absolute overindulgence capable by Mr Beast is insane in any functioning society. The disparity is so bad these influencers and people with money swoop in, gift people egregious and lavish gifts are rewards for contests, and use that to further enrich themselves through monetized channels. Its sickening to watch. This shouldn’t be reality.
The old system where the networks got all the money was way better.
Suddenly it’s 1960.
Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and Google have replaced ABC, NBC, PBS and CBS.
Your “
personal computerinternet appliance” is a black-box running rented software, just like in the ‘dumb-terminal time-sharing’ era.The comments replying seem to ignore one of the key aspects of your opinion. It’s about Mr Beast getting his name and face on every interaction. If the networks shoved “WERE GONNA BLOW UP THIS LABORGHINI BECAUSE CBS!” “WERE GONNA FEED THIS HOMELESS DUDE! CBS! CBS!” ad nauseam it would be a different animal, but somehow ostentatious displays of consumption and self-promotion are acceptable for some.
For sure but Mr. Beast doesn’t actually keep any of the money for himself.
He does though. You can’t build fancy sets and put on huge productions without having money. Like yeah, Jimmy might not have millions of dollars in his personal bank account, but his business sure does.
He frequently talks about it. Often his videos costs about as much as they make.
He just likes doing the videos and helping people
My point is its batshit insane we have half the population unable to afford a fly farting on their car while a noticeable portion is able to gift people life transformations. You can’t mitigate all failures on an individual level, people will lose and get hurt, but this is beyond individual responsibility. Its self-gratification and excuberate indulgence on a scale that would make Slaanesh cum. If any of these people truly wanted to help people and not just play Saint Lottery, they would use their power to lobby for better regulations and worker conditions. Since money is free speech you know.
