    To note, 2020 was a couple years after Musk called the cave diver that saved kids a pedo.

    That was the moment that all rational people figured out he was a complete asshat. Mr. Beast didn’t.

    Just quoting myself here for good measure. *shrugs

        Yeah and I’m of the opinion that it was pretty widely covered at the time, and a lot of people figured it out, so I don’t buy that “most” didn’t know it.

          That was the time he was the most popular. Everyone’s was in love with him and though he was the real life tony stark at that point. I hadn’t even heard of the fact he called the rescuer a pedo until s couple months ago (way after I realised he was a dick). To be fair, this is all anecdotal, but many people didn’t know and I want to give Mr beast the benefit of the doubt. Not to add this was three years ago before all of the other bad stuff he said.
