I think this is the key line to take away from the article that sums up what a massive fuckup this whole thing was, solely based on one person’s ego:
MrBeast producers had forbidden medics from being stationed inside the set—even during challenges—because they did not want to ruin the atmosphere, said April.
Apparently not, since they said you could hear bones breaking while cameras were rolling and someone had a seizure and was just left on the field for an hour.
Honestly, the whole thing sound like MrBeast just wants to jerk off to people getting tortured.
Is this the recent fuck up from that mrbeast guy? I knew he had legal stuff, but I didn’t care enough to look into it. I just was trying to be like the cool kids and kick him while he was down. I watch a whole Erik video about him and didn’t learn what he did. 😂 I was wondering when I would find out some details.
My guess is in 10 years we will see him run for president similar to Trump. This won’t end well.
In the wise words of Billy Connolly,
The desire to be a politician should bar you for life from ever becoming one.
At the founding of the United States, the public sentiment reflected that idea. The thought of someone promoting themselves for public office would’ve been seen as a power-grab. In fact, George Washington didn’t campaign at all - others nominated him. Even when he won the vote unanimously, he still wasn’t sure if he would accept the position, as he doubted his ability to handle the responsibility.
Washington set a lot of precedents for the office that still remain today. It’s a shame this humble honesty didn’t stick.
It’s true for leaders in general. The best leaders I’ve had were people who didn’t want to be, and each person I’ve seen focus on “leadership skills” and trying to climb a corporate or other power ladder has been abysmal at it.
Most of the ppl I’d vote for have expressed a clear digust in becoming a politician. Sad irony
Yup. We keep learning the same thing over and over: Don’t hero worship people, demand they be better and stay better or don’t support them.
He will eventually do something that will make the OP situation look like nothing, just like Elon, Joanne, or Trump. It’s just a matter of time.
You should demand better then either, neither should be in charge of a sandwich shop, let alone a country.
Obviously, I’m voting for Harris. I’m just saying, on the relative scale, there’s a hierarchy.
Good luck explaining to people around here that the lesser of two evils is still evil.
Outright fucking sociopath.
About a dozen portable restrooms were set up on the field to accommodate the 2,000 contestants who were limited to the field’s confines.
there’s me, shitting my pants again
They collected everyone’s medication???!!! Wtf? What could possibly be the reason for that? Also collecting a change of underwear for 2000 people is just ridiculous.
Not having any system in place to keep track of what underwear belongs to any of the participants is just icing on the cake.
Why are you taking people’s medication and underwear and then mixing it altogether? Just to create chaos?
I am so confused by all of this.
