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

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.

    Those other YouTubers don’t make their fortunes convincing much poorer people to make fools of themselves for a miniscule sliver of what beast is making by monetizing it.

        Ah yes. He must be the first ever ethical multi-millionaire to make their money by giving it away. He keeps trying, but he just can’t help being a millionaire, near billionaire. It’s a curse!

          And as he gets richer, he increases the amount of money he puts into his charity videos. Him having more money is pretty directly a good thing for those he helps. It’s also a good thing for him, but that’s not wrong.

                You’re the one defending a millionaire. What more do I need to say?

                  I don’t know, something intelligent preferably. Make an actual point, don’t just jump to insulting people when you run out of things to say.

                  Edit: I should practice what I preach. What makes millionaires bad? Their exploitation of other people to get to their position of wealth? Or just the act of having money? Surely it’s the former, which makes being a millionaire itself not an immoral act; it would depend on your method of gaining money?
