Mr Beast apparently my have lied about paying for 1000 eye surgeries.
UPDATE 10/30/24 - We have still not received any money nor any communication with MrBeast after multiple attempts to reach out. Thanks for spreading the word!! Remember MrBeast's video where he CLAIMS TO PROVIDE 1000 EYE SURGERIES across the world??? Well, he didn't. We challenge him to make...
Lie surgery
The weird thing is he did pay for a lot of surgeries in the US but international ones are
. So why lie and embelish the numbers. Then taking footage not approved or somethingThe weird thing is he did pay for a lot of surgeries in the US but international ones are :desolate:
Not that weird, USAmericans see foreigners as lesser
I'm going to have a hard time explaining this one to my kid.
I can imagine. We have a firm "No Mr. Beast" rule in our house but my kid still learned about him through school and I'm having a hard time explaining the nuance of Mr. Beast helping people since it's all profit motivated. But I've also suspected Beast was a sham so this year's revolations have been "fun".
I have a 9 year old I have 50/50 custody with. We don't do much youtube, if any, in our house but his mom is extremely Laissez-faire with electronic devices so I think he's basically freebasing youtube over there.
Both logistically and ethically you can't really keep your kid in a perfect bubble and its unavoidable they're going to get exposed to stuff like this so unironically: do talk to your kids about it. Especially with the future of AI: I believe Media literacy is going to be INSANELY important to start grasping as soon as possible. My partner and I have used Mr. Beast as a starting point to have conversations about how people can be playing themselves as a character or presenting things as reality even though they're scripted. We've also used it to engage in conversations about how liking/enjoying certain content isn't a value judgement on the people creating it and how we all enjoy things written and created by people who weren't super great humans. I encourage checking out "making of" docs also. He's 9 so I can't say how well this all plays out long term...but I have observed him noticing recurring tropes in some of his media so I feel like there's something to it.
I'll sound like the average chud here, but why wait until now?
Strangely the vid was out for 8 or so months. Its only gaining traction now in light of other findings of mr beast
