Episode 217 - "MrBeast is literally Hitler"
🕑 Added 2024-08-16 13:03:01 +0000 UTCThis is a rough cut of my previous attempt to make the video on MrBeast. I thought I would trash it but decided to give it out to those who support me instead.

As far as I know, nothing ever truly happens anymore. I think people are more and more desensitized to scandals and do not expect anything good from elites/leaders/personalities anymore.

I usually avoid covering personalities but sometimes it's a good case study into broader issues and theories. I am super glad you enjoyed it!

This will generate a precedent that nothing happens to famous youtubers and more youtube figures will start doing just that.

Clever irony, that tongue-in-cheek clickbait title, but I almost didn't bother to listen, cause I really don't care much about YouTube personalities and their foibles. I'm so glad I listened, because what you accomplished there is a master class on journalism vs. entertainment, follow the money vs. being the mark, and a great framing of how moneyed interests use algorithms to harvest our attention for money at the expense of social order and stability. Love what you did here.
