Fuck that narcissist

Dorkyd68 ,

His face is oh so punchable. He has the weirdest fake smile and it creeps me tf out

Grass ,

I never watched any of his videos but to friends that did I always said he would eventually make headlines for some kind of problematic behavior or involvement, and when asked what it was based on I just said I could tell by his face. Unnatural and disingenuous in appearance and actions if questioned further but none of them could see it.

Ioughttamow ,

Always that stupid fucking grin

I’m so glad to see my exact feelings of him shared by so many people. My gut feeling about people like him is never wrong.

funkless_eck ,

doesn’t smile with his eyes

KingJalopy ,

My 10-year-old daughter recently mentioned Mr. Beast and I said what do you know about him? She said I don’t know but my friends showed me his videos and I think the guy’s a creep. I pretty much gave her a high five and said she can have all the ice cream she wants LOL.

cordlesslamp ,

If only I can send her some more money for even more ice cream, but then I would be the creep lol. Could you give her a high five for me and tell her she’s the best 10yo kid in the world and she’s awesome, please

funkless_eck ,

also giving a way free money is a pipeline to becoming Mr Beast

Frozengyro ,

Your comment reads kinda like:

That friends name? Einstein, everyone clapped, and gave you a hundred dollars.

h3mlocke ,

Nah

bradorsomething ,

Lot’s of trashing on Jimmy lately, is it the new fashion?

drdalek ,

Have you not seen what’s come out in the last 2 months regarding him? He deserves every bit of it

bradorsomething ,

I don’t have a lot of time to dive into fluff, I mostly see the scroll and hear what the kids say. Last I really heard about this guy he was planting trees and giving away homes, then I think some vegan teacher hated him? Now every headline I see about him has a negative slant, but nothing bad enough to make NPR or BBC.

drdalek ,

These are what I’d recommend:

youtu.be/NHFvR0ArXPs

youtu.be/k5xf40KrK3I

The videos have been not monetized, so the creator is making mo money from this, and is taking all the risk of litigation.

parasocial much?

tilefan ,

I saw one a week ago that said it was Harvey Weinstein’s lawyer.

catloaf ,

I saw one last month that said he represented Hitler at The Hague

metaStatic ,

you literally can't make this shit up

tilefan ,

I could have made that up

thefartographer ,

Could not

Could to

Brkdncr ,

The firm the lawyer is from is the top trial firm in the world. They don’t mind avoiding settlements. Lots of probably-guilty people hire them.

That whole underground bunker series is starting to get a little too reality TV like for me. I don’t watch him often but when it shows make it outside of his channel I end up catching glimpses.

Jaden animation recently won a million dollars to give to her subscribers.

But he pit a bunch of the YouTubers in a squid game competition which makes the ratings but isn’t a great look.

NoIWontPickAName ,

Is he still giving away lots of money to random people?

rabber ,

Those were never random people they are his friends lol

TachyonTele ,

Everyone he “gave money to” was either a friend of his or an employee of his company. He never gave any to strangers. It’s all a show.

NoIWontPickAName ,

All the random people on the street too?

linearchaos ,
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

Nah, there were plenty of instances where it went to a decent charity.

He’s basically running a game show on YouTube money.

And yes a lot of the money went to people he knows.

mctoasterson ,

I keep seeing his chocolate in stores. Seems overpriced.

linearchaos ,
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

I think the chocolate may actually be one of the few things he did that’s a net positive. It’s not bad.

AbidanYre ,

He certainly smiles like a sociopath.

chemical_cutthroat ,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Because he doesn’t smile, he snarls, we’ve just lost out prey instincts after being on the top of he food chain for so long.

Arbiter ,

Tell that to my chronic anxiety.

thesporkeffect ,

He’s finally cooked. Enjoy the long slow ride into irrelevance. Enjoy the fake friends fading away as the money tap dries up.

Effectively an admission…😅

It's real dangerous to look at someone seeking legal representation and take that as an implication of guilt.

Not defending Mr Beast at all, I'm sure there is no shortage of actual evidence of wrongdoing

AbouBenAdhem , (edited )

This isn’t even a reaction to known allegations—apparently he’s just anticipating potential future trouble:

the reason that Donaldson hired the flashy lawyer is to conduct an internal audit of his company, the likes of which has recently come under fire as the result of various scandals.

So I think it’s fair to say it’s an admission that his conduct might be legally questionable, without taking it as a confession of guilt

minibyte ,

IIRC there was significant backlash over the Squid Games clone, or what was supposed to be. This is probably a wise decision.

If you wait until you need a lawyer, you waited too long.

takeda ,

The allegations are that he is a dickhead, and him resorting to hiring a flashy lawyer to fight it pretty much confirms that.

He is not a defendant here he will be a plaintiff in those suits.

sndmn ,

What a sociopathic thing to do.

TransplantedSconie ,

Oh lordy.

That’s never a good sign.
