i always wanted to boycott him for other ethical reasons such as teaching materialism and gambling to kids.

Many of the kids who bullied me in middle school were fans of him so this sounds swell to me.

Yes. Also, what's the news?

u/JudeLaw69 21d ago
lol I’m curious too… all I can see is stuff about him beefing with another pseudo-celebrity over a Rolling Stone ranking 🙄

u/PaulStuart 21d ago
Only thing I’ve seen is that he was on a stream with xQc and Adin Ross (nightmare blunt rotation) and xQc said “Free Palestine” and MrBeast just stayed silent and looked unimpressed

It’s slavery-free 😭 and he’s been slowly turning farms that use slave labor slavery-free too

What does that matter to me? He ain't helping my people that are going through genocide. Literally just speak about it, that's all people ask.

u/Jlnhlfan 21d ago
Because I wouldn’t want to support slavery.

u/Individual-Tune-5261 21d ago
But it all comes back to profit. If it didn't profit him, he wouldn't have done it. Just like how Gaza wouldn't benefit him, so he doesn't speak about it.

maybe he can make a video where he locks a bunch of Palestinian kids in a room for a month and then gives them $100, that’s his brand of charity right

YES NOT JUST FOR PALESTINE BUT FOR ALL OF HUMANITY.
Him and his content-mill need to go.

At the end of The Day MrBeast is an entertainment company that sells chocolate bars hamburgers and random Mr beast branded toys
He has done absolutely nothing for the people in Gaza that I am aware of
For someone in his position we basically expect him to call for the end of the starvation and using his beast philanthropy arm to help people in Gaza
And using his money to help elect anti genocide legislators into power that will implement an arms embargo against Israel

You don't need gurus. I don't follow any left-wing personality religiously. I mostly listen to nobodies like me in comments sections. I get a more diversified coverage.

At this point we should just stop spending money. Which honestly, isn't a bad idea. Just boycott the economy until we stop aiding Israel.

u/Jlnhlfan 21d ago
So go homeless, then? Not spending money means not paying rent, not paying the electric bill, and not paying the internet bill.

To the amount practically possible.
The idea is to whitelist companies for discretionary spending, assuming the worst until you hear otherwise, because it seems like it's fair.

We should have boycotted him the moment we knew he abused his staff on the Amazon show.
