Transcripts

go to ww.com and register I wouldn't

want a million dollar even smells like

well guys this is the last one I promise

this is going to be the last video I

make on this whole Mr Beast Fiasco we've

been going through over the last couple

of weeks because honestly I'm kind of

just tired of talking about it and what

we're talking about today is the exact

reason why now if you have somehow gone

the last month without hearing about any

of this Mr Beast drama then I don't even

really know where I would start if I

were to try and give you you a full

recap it would take so long that I would

end up spending more time giving you the

recap than I would talking about the

actual topic of today's video so I'm not

going to do that but what I will do is

try and give you some context in 30

seconds or less so basically over the

last month here's what's happened Ava

Chris Tyson one of Mr BEAST's best

friends and a long running member of the

Mr Beast channel was exposed for some

really weird and predatory online

Behavior which included messaging a

minor Mr Beast was called out for

knowing about this and doing nothing

which led to a Chris Tyson and the Mr

Beast Channel parting ways shortly after

that a YouTuber named dog pack 404 made

a video that went viral accusing Mr

Beast of Faking his videos exploiting

his audience and running illegal

lotteries Mr Beast and his team

apparently sent a cease and deist letter

to dog Peg 404 that in the video going

viral in the first place put Mr Beast in

a lot of hot water which was only made

worse after accusations came out that Mr

Beast project the Beast games a game

show he's producing for Amazon Prime are

being ran and managed Ed so poorly that

people are nearly dying trying to

participate now obviously every

situation I just mentioned is a little

bit more nuanced than something that can

really be explained in a single sentence

if you want the full stories if you want

all the information I'll put links to a

couple of videos in the top right corner

but I feel like having that brief

explanation is really all you need for

today because for today's video to make

sense all you really need to know is

that one Mr Beast has gotten a lot of

backlash for every single thing that I

describe

and two it has all happened in the time

between his last upload and his most

recent upload this is important because

I feel like it really is going to

highlight just how pointless talking

about stuff like this can sometimes be

yesterday Mr Beast uploaded survive 100

days in a nuclear bunker win

$500,000 and since that video has come

out there have been multiple Twitter

threads accusing Mr Beast of censoring

any negative comments that that video

receives screenshots and videos have

popped up showing people's comments

being removed almost instantly if they

mention anything about Ava Chris Tyson

anything about the videos being fake

basically just any reference to anything

that's happened over these last few

weeks is apparently getting your comment

nuked immediately now while this is

something that's kind of hard to prove

I'm inclined to believe these claims for

a few reasons one being that earlier

today once I saw all of these

accusations I went to the comment

section of this video and I saw a lot of

comments doing the same thing now I wish

I would have taken screen scre shots or

something but I just kind of wasn't

thinking about it but the few negative

comments that I saw were all one word if

that makes sense like it was people

typing out full sentences without

spacing anything I guess to get past the

auto moderation of this comment section

and a lot of those comments had a lot of

likes also none of them were older than

10 minutes I'm looking at the top

comments right now and they're nowhere

to be seen some of these comments had

like 20 or 30,000 likes 8 hours ago they

definitely would have had a lot more now

and they're nowhere to be seen another

thing that I think is really really

fishy is that this is currently the

number one trending video on YouTube

like basically every new Mr Beast upload

is and I'll show you what happens if you

filter the comments by newest it's

really hard for me to believe that a

video that is getting hundreds of

thousands of views a minutes is only

getting one comment every couple of

minutes and if you scroll through these

comments whether you sort by top comment

or whether you sort by new comment look

through all the replies and no matter

what you do you will not find anything

that mentions what has been the biggest

controversy of the last month straight

if you think that nobody is coming to

give Mr Beast a piece of their mind

you're insane these comments are 100%

being censored in some capacity now why

is this important why should you care

that these comments are being censored

well Mr Beast is without a doubt a the

biggest YouTube figure of all time I

doubt there will ever be anybody who's

bigger than Mr Beast and over the last

month he's been accused of some pretty

serious stuff and look this was not some

isolated incident of somebody who seemed

like they were just trying to get famous

this was dozens upon dozens of different

sources saying different things all bad

I feel like the last month deserves to

be addressed now look I'm not saying he

needs to make a YouTube video where he

whines and cries for forgiveness and all

that but a tweet addressing the

fact that somebody says you've been

running illegal lotteries for the last

few years taking advantage of children

faking every you do hosting a game show

where people are having seizures or

getting bones broken by other

participants I mean these are things

that I feel like you should at least say

aren't happening right trying to sweep

all of this under the rug just seems

like a really shitty thing to do and

sending cease and assist letters to the

people making these videos and deleting

any sort of comment that references

anything that's happened makes it seem

like that's what the Mr Beast team is

trying to do now you might be asking

yourself why should you care about this

why should you care whatsoever that Mr

Beast is deleting comments and trying to

sweep all of this controversy under the

rug well the reality is that you

probably shouldn't when it comes to

situations like this when we're looking

at a Mr Beast kind of figure a person of

that kind of Fame wealth and success if

the people above him are not willing to

do anything there's nothing to be done

now this would be slightly different if

the primary audience of Mr Beast was

young adults or older but it's not I

mean I've got to imagine the average Mr

Beast viewer is between like 10 and 13

probably when you have a person who is

as successful as Mr Beast who does not

directly work for anybody or does not

like rely on a certain industry to give

them work and Their audience is full of

11-year-olds there's literally nothing

to be done here because for anything

meaningful to be done to Mr Beast to

force his hand to respond to these

allegations or make anything right one

of those things would have to be true

now look I'm not trying to put on my

like Hollywood conspiracy theory hat

here but this is just reality if a

big-time celebrity does something they

shouldn't they're forced to Apologize by

their PR team because if they don't they

won't get movies anymore they won't get

TV shows they won't get commercials they

are relying on Hollywood for work so

they have to make sure they comply with

Hollywood if your audience is made up of

young adults or adults they will have a

more developed sense of morals than a

12-year-old will and if you do something

bad enough they will not want to watch

you anymore because they won't want to

support you when neither of those things

are the case for Mr Beast why would he

do anything YouTube sponsorships are

generally kind of shady as is so I doubt

any of them are going to stop working

with them Amazon is Amazon I honestly

can't think of a better fitting company

for Mr Beast to work with to make a game

show where the working conditions are

apparently terrible so other than those

two things I don't really think Mr Beast

is relying on anybody but children he

seems to fund all of his videos YouTube

would not ban Mr Beast if he killed

somebody the amount of money that man is

making Google and the amount of people

is bringing to YouTube at no more cost

to YouTube than any other YouTuber is so

extremely valuable to Google that I do

not think the man could do anything to

have his channel removed so I mean at

the end of the day why waste the mental

energy to address any of this why hire a

PR coach and more lawyers to make sure

you're saying the right thing if you

don't really need to the reality is that

the portion of his audience who does

know what he's being accused of probably

doesn't care and more importantly most

of his audience probably doesn't even

have a clue as to what's been going on

look this is something I had to come to

terms with on my own most people are not

on the internet nearly as much as you

would think they are if you are a person

who spends a lot of time on the internet

I guarantee you majority of Mr Beast

audience doesn't even know there's a

controversy right now to try and put

things into perspective Mr Beast has

basically the same amount of Subs as

there are active Twitter users right now

so while there might be a few million

people talking about this on Twitter

that number is nothing compared to over

300 million people now I'm willing to

wager most of the people talking about

this on Twitter or YouTube are not Mr

Beast fans to begin with and it's likely

that many of the people watching those

videos or interacting with those Twitter

threads are also not Mr Beast fans

you've got to consider that the average

10-year-old is probably not on Twitter

and they're probably not watching

commentary YouTube when stuff like this

happens when people get called out for

doing bad things I'll often see people

make tweets or make statements saying

stuff like how could could anybody

support them after this one aspect of

that is a lot of people probably just

don't know again Mr Beast is not exactly

a niche content creator if you sign out

of your YouTube account the default

algorithm is going to show you Mr Beast

all day long you don't need to be in the

no on the internet to watch Mr Beast

which is why none of this is going to

affect the man's viewership the few

people that do care who stop watching Mr

Beast will instantly be replaced by a

few million 8-year-olds who are

instantly directed to Mr Beast after

they're allowed on YouTube for the first

time the people who really really care

about this will continue to talk about

it to the other people that really

really care about it and they'll just go

back and forth the rest of the internet

will forget about this after a couple of

weeks and then apart from when it comes

up in conversation every few months

it'll be like this never happened there

was a moment where a lot of people

myself included thought you know what

maybe this will have an effect on this

guy's career this is a lot coming out at

once maybe some people will take notice

but considering that this most recent

video is his best performing out of his

last 10 I don't think that's happening

well guys what do you think do you think

this last month will have any sort of

long lasting effect on Mr Beast or his

legacy because I don't I think we've

entered an age of the internet where

things move so fast that unless you do

something truly heinous you can just

about get away with anything there's so

much information being shot at you all

the time so many controversies so much

drama that it all just kind of slips

through the cracks and even if you are

held accountable for something you do

the internet's so damn big these days

that it's not that hard to just start

over and find a new audience I think we

have officially entered into an age of

the internet where accountability is

basically optional if you enjoyed this

video please leave a like and walk on

over to that subscribe button and touch

it it's free it won't cost you anything

but for now that's all I have for you
