Is Mr Beast a good person? - eviltoast

I know this is going to sound like some clickbait bullshit title, but I’m genuinely curious, asking in good faith. My two oldest sons are enamored with him, and he seems like a genuine guy, so I’m asking - is he a nice guy? If you google the question, you get a bunch of reddit hate, which I don’t always trust, because…it’s reddit. I have not watched much content (not my thing, I’m old) but I’m just curious what the fediverse has to say.

    Why do you want to find common ground with people who are actively engaging in genocide?
    There is certain ground you shouldn’t want to be in common with.
    Certain positions you just oppose.
    You are carrying water for people who want good friends of mine executed and you should stop doing that.

      He said:

      Assuming someone is pro-genocide removes your capacity to find that common ground and work cooperatively.

      The whoosh of his point going over your head can be head from states away.

        You’ll have to include whatever point you think you’re making there too.

        I’m not the one who made genocide the official party platform, nor am I someone who seems to think a person can vote for a party doing a genocide while remaining morally inculpable for doing so.
