For those out of the know:

Video 1

Video 2 (CONTENT WARNING: Torture, SA)

I'm not much for YouTube drama but never liked Mr. Beast's child lotteries and wealth glorification. If you wanted to improve society you could put that money into actual charity, but of course that isn't a profitable strategy. Oh well.

No idea how valid the youtuber's claims are

Did you watch the second video? That guy is fucked up by the experience Mr Beast put him through. Also, the child lottery allegations are right there for everyone to see (though most of the livestreams are taken off the official YouTube, some still exist out there). Plus, selling chocolates (that are actually not healthier) to kids while also doing the lottery thing is pretty shady.
