mr. beast videos are entertaining, but entertainment is void. what do you take away from the video? if all of these insights were gathered in order to serve a purpose, the attention they garnish amounting to a goal - like everyone watching this could learn something new about this, or have a new perspective on this, then it wouldn't be attention sucking for the sake of views. right? mr. beast is an inhuman machine that produces great YouTube videos. that's my take anyway

Is it? Are takeaways, learning, and perspectives the only things that fill a void? Moralizing entertainment is a hard job. You must presume to know what people benefit from in all contexts.

I've only ever watched a handful of his videos, but most of them involve humans making choices and there's a lot to takeaway from watching humans make choices.

This isn't fair. Don't be the creator that loathes successful creators. Don't be the creator that loathes the successful creator's audience.
You can want more from Mr. Beast. You can choose a different and "better" path than Mr. Beast. But don't strip his humanity from him because you wish he produced things like you would.
