Funny story. I'm an ex-comedian from NC and know Jake Weddle and a lot of the early Mr. Beast writers, and I actually heard this Jake Weddle story a couple of years ago and was wondering when it would come back. Was offered a job there to come on as a writer for $20/hr and had no idea what the channel was, asked if I could do the job remote and naturally things ended there.

I'm glad I didn't get duped by this pos, always seemed like a despair profiteer masquerading as some kind of savior. Fuck him. Feeling slightly vindicated for shitting on him in previous threads.

I've had that pedo defender blocked for years, the only person I've blocked on this forum, looks like that was also a good decision.

Which pedo defender?  Ree is filled with them

There have been legitimate reasons to not be fond of MrBeast's actions that people have pointed out for years.

People didn't want to listen to those reasons because they insist on mindlessly eating up "feel good" capitalist claptrap while being actively hostile towards any attempt at thoughtful analysis behind what they're watching. A lot of y'all basically set yourselves up for this disappointment, and I say that as someone who was at least willing to give Jimmy the benefit of the doubt this entire time that he ran his YouTube channel cleanly under the guise of sheer political ignorance and naivete versus craven attention-seeking and serial neglect. Wasn't even trying to entertain allegations such as the fact that he found out a fucking child predator was on his team and didn't give a shit. But now we're here.

Hopefully you all have learned some basic lessons from this, namely:

- Media is deliberately manufactured, and thus you should be aware of what messages any given piece of media is trying to impart upon you.

- Millionaire and billionaire philanthropy is done for the benefit of the capitalist and his legacy first and the beneficiaries a far second. It also allows these people to get away for heinous shit for as long as possible because they fully understand open philanthropy disarms a capitalist-positive public from being able to critique them because they associate charitable giving with actual moral goodness (meaning people who can afford to give away millions are, in effect, better people than those who donate less or donate their time instead. How convenient for people advantaged by the system!)

- A white guy taking it upon himself to use impoverished Africans in bolstering his media empire is always an automatic red flag. ALWAYS
