He runs a poverty porn channel - do this thing and if you do it you get money. He pretends its about altruism but its about clicks. Oh and he’s also been closely associated with a number of crypto scams where a coin is launched and then rugpulled.
started as a YouTuber that did trend videos like “I did the latest trend, but did it BIGGER”
figured out a (very exploitative) formula for maximising viewer retention whilst getting as many sponsorship deals into a video as possible
Became the first YouTube Millionaire
Started amping up this formula by making the challenges shocking and attention grabbing, such as “I PUT 10 PEOPLE IN AN UNLOCKED HOTEL ROOM, LAST TO LEAVE GETS $5 MILLION”
realised he could wash his terrible reputation by occasionally releasing a charity video instead, kept it being exploitative though, his most famous example was “I CURED THE BLINDNESS OF 100 PEOPLE” (all blind because they had treatable, easily, diseases but American Healthcare is so exploitative they couldn’t afford to get the treatment)
Managed to get a TV series called “Beast Games” that’s this but TV
He’s basically everything wrong with YouTube rolled into one person
I barely know who Mr Beast is, I’ve NEVER seen one of his videos, but Publix had one of his candy bars on their Clearance Shelf (I love the Clearance Shelf), and it was really good chocolate, much more like European Chocolate. It was smoother without that vomity alkaline taste that American chocolate has, that we’ve all gotten used to.
It didn’t turn me into a fan, but his chocolate bar was actually really good.
It’s definitely not really good and like European, but it is a step above Hershey. It sits somewhere in the middle. If you found it cheap it was probably a good value.
Very much agree. As a UK bod, American chocolate bars generally taste like poison and smell like sick.
My kids were big fans of Mr Beast when the chocolate bars came out, so of course we had to buy it when we saw it. And honestly, it was actually really good.
That is Lucifer, the great beast, the biblical devil. Hence “Mr Beast”. He revealed himself to humanity in the mid 2010s, expecting to incite the apocalypse. But everyone was already pretty shook at the general state of the world, so nobody cared. He still tries to shock the world with diabolical stunts, but he really just can’t compete with politicians and billionaires. Kind of tough to see, tbh. Kinda sad.
He’s a wildly popular streamer guy that does wacky shit like this and it somehow translate to lots of views/money. I didn’t know who he was for a very long time to many peoples’ surprise. I was truly disappointed he didn’t look like Beast from the X-men.
I have only vague knowledge, but I think it’s real. He’s a twat that a huge number of kids look up to, who is essentially the end boss of capitalistic decay.
Completely out of the loop:
Who’s Mr Beast, what does he do, why should I know him?
What does it mean “I have”? What does he have? A new type of game show? A movie, book, play, game?
Is this real or satire?
Edit: Thanks everybody! Seems like I missed nothing.
Folding Ideas on YouTube has a very entertaining video about him.

Being serious:
He’s basically everything wrong with YouTube rolled into one person
You didn’t even mention his terrible chocolate and candy
Ollie’s has Mr. Beast beef jerky. Seems more appropriate.

It was like 75 cents to try it.
Worth it for that for sure.
I waited to try “dubai chocolate” until it made it to the discontinued shelf. I should have waited even longer.

Ooh yeah true I did

He really has to up his game if he wants to compete with the state of the world.
Find the lie
He’s a YouTuber who does “game shows” with concepts like in this post. The tweet might be fake though, OP didn’t post a link.
Note, he’s not just ‘a YouTuber’, he is currently the most popular one by quite a margin.
Note that this doesn’t mean his content is good or worthwhile.
Thanks! This post confused me quite a lot.

The only thing I know about him is that he is very good at Dune Imperium board game and he hosted multiple tournaments for it.

You’re lucky.
