Yeah but he has ties to a known pedophile, and even had art by said pedo on the wall in the background of some videos, so there's that.

I only know the guy from the thumbnails and dead eyes. But this really feels like reaching for a justification to hate.

If you've seen (also past tense) any movie by, for example, Bryan Singer, you have consumed art made by a pedophile.

I'm not defending him (I honestly don't care about him), all I'm saying is that without any context, these kind of statements are kinda cheap and meaningless.

"I'm not educated on what the man has done, but I'm going to spout my uninformed opinion, anyway."

Funny how the Internet is a tool to be able to look up the context in only a few minutes.

Can't talk, too busy vetting the distributors, manufacturers, and suppliers and partners to those distributors and manufacturers of every item and service that I own or otherwise use for reprehensible behavior or views.

Look I get what you're saying but we're not omnipotent. I'm sure there's probably some product that you use that's tied to a pedo or a racist or something that you're simply not aware of yet. I'm also not defending Mr beast, frankly I only have the vaguest idea who he is.

Thank you for your insightful comment, it tells me a lot. Mostly about you, but still.

Has almost probably worn a woman as a skin suit.

Make it stop

It's like there's a manufacturing conveyer belt of horrible wealthy tech bros just going brrrrrr all the time.

That's what happens when you have an economic system built to reward greedy sociopaths.

Dude is like Zuckerberg alien or something. So creepy

I'd sell my house, car and kidney just to punch him in the dick one time

Real life was a meme this whole time.

Spreading his fraudulent empire.

Of all the people that could buy that shit pile, I think he'd be the best. Kinda the least smelly turd in the pile.

Barely. Give him another ten years to reach Musk or Zuckbot's level.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Have you seen the company he keeps? The leap from Logan Paul to Elon Musk isn't very far for people like him.
