Dude you obviously have not seen game shows from well forever the last 50 60 years at very least. Mr beast is just a continuation of those game shows. I for one had never really heard or watched him before beast games came out. And then I started saying more and more of his stuff. But it’s always been a part of game show culture and everything else culture to value the game and the money over anything else. However even watching those games and even his games you’ll see quite a few people that value other things over the money.
And doing this stuff that he does for these guys is pretty tame oh don’t leave a plane for 24 hours oh don’t leave a grocery store for 2 days you know different stuff like that I don’t see anything that is out of the ordinary. They used to do the things all the time and I’ve even seen them live where it’s like hey come touch this car and the last person standing gets it stuff like that where people are literally passing out and everything like that they’ve been doing that since like the you know 40s 50s 60s stuff like that none of this stuff is new is my point.
The game shows we air on mainstream TV in Germany are so vanilla in comparison to that (essentially whos going to be a millionair).
And if we air things like Takeshis Castle, we usually import and dub over them. Usually they get the night time slot (22:00 - 05:00), usually on private channels. Prime time (20:15) is very rare for that beyond specialized channels.
Simply that the take on them destroying society because they are taking a small handful of people and putting them in a competition isn’t accurate at all.

I was born in the '70s. I grew up on those game shows. They do not hold a candle to the brazen contempt for humanity that Mr Beast videos have.
Huh. You must be watching something far different then what I’ve seen.
Game shows are tame. I mean fear factor being the exception that was a fucking disgusting show. But what can you expect with who was hosting it.

That it’s “always been” doesn’t make it any more acceptable. I’m not sure what you’re saying here.
