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.

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.
We shouldn’t be depending on rich people to do things the government should be doing. The more they do this, the less the government will do their actual job.
See: Elon Musk talking about a hyper loop as soon as California starts considering a large public rail system, effectively destroying the rail system plan and allowing him to sell more cars for way longer.
Except that was malicious and blocked a solution.
Beast isn’t preventing in a solution. He went and gave water to villages that had been searching and begging for a solution for years. He gave cataract surgery to people who couldn’t afford it. He gave them exactly what they wanted, not something worse then didn’t deliver.
In a better world, either Mr Beast couldn’t exist because people couldn’t have 100,000 times more wealth thqn others, or there would be no one for him to help.
We don’t live in that better world. To me it looks like the world is a better place because of him. He’s helped many directly, and inspired others to help. The harm he has done seems to either be hypothetical, or claiming people were harmed who they themselves say are fine.
So it seems like the world is better because he is in it.
Do you honestly think if Mr beast blipped out of existence that the government would step in to do all those things?
Hyperloop fucked us, true, but it feels like the campaigns Mr beast goes on aren’t really interfering with government decisions.
