Mr Beast is an evil guy that show how capitalisim can turn poor people into clowns to entertain rich people.

He is an evil individual who fails to address systemic issues or assist people for their own benefit.

As a game show host, he humiliates and exploits participants, boasting about his own virtues without any regard for the contestants.

Examples:

I believe legal intervention is necessary to limit his actions towards people and prevent him from exploiting them for personal gain.

Quick note: while I believe that results of some of his videos is good ( which he did to show how good of a person he is), that does not change the facts about his evil videos, the same way bezoz donations does not make him a good person.

You do realize those are voluntary participants right?
- True, but they agree to do it because they need money. It’s like Squid Game but less extreme (I actually never saw squid game so maybe that’s a bad analogy). The system has failed these people (presumably) and he exploits their need for money in order to make himself look good and raise awareness of his brand so he can make more money too. At least I assume that’s OP’s point
  
  Well I don't think any participant in a MrBeast challenge has ever been shot in the head so I'd say it's a pretty bad analogy.
  
  Analogy: a comparison of 2 identical events.
  
  Brilliant
  
  The differences between these two is extreme enough to merit ridicule.
  
  I do not like giveaways because most of them are just tax-write-offs.
  
  However, if someone has money, it is theirs to decide how to use. And if someone else is being helped and not harmed, then it's a good thing.
  
  I do not know of anyone being harmed by MrBeast.
  
  But I do know of people and animals benefitting from his generousness.
  
  Being embarrassed is not the same as physical injury.
  
  Much like participation in MrBeast videos is not the same as participation in Squid Game.
  
  Lmao, the effort you spent in responding to this thread is enough to merit ridicule. It's especially sad considering the content you wrote with that effort.
- They did not volunteer for the science, they volunteered for the money.
  
  There is a reason why the voluntary sale of organs is illegal worldwide, and why scientific studies are subject to strict ethical regulations to prevent individuals from participating in activities that could harm them.
  
  I will say that a surprising amount of people in his earlier videos were basically his team. If anything Mr Beast shines a light on what entertains us rather than him.
  
  It can be both.
- So were all the participants in squid game.
  
  That's quite the escalation. Mr Beast isn't making people kill each other.
  
  Yeah but one of the big themes is that a lot of the time even when these people technically do have the choice to refuse, circumstances often make it so they can't. While it's nowhere near as extreme, the underlying motivations are the same
