He’s got vested interest in gargling Musk’s balls.
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.
In my view, it means Mr. Beast doesn’t actually respect Kris very much, to keep being this buddy-buddy with Musk.
I mean Musk wasn’t as loud about his bigotry at that point, not in the way he is now at least, and Mr Beast has been openly supportive of trans people. Being a bit of an idiot and being a raging bigot aren’t the same thing, and that incident mostly convinced people that Elon was an idiot. It’s entirely possible he’s changed his mind about Musk in 3 years. I’m not a Mr Beast fan by any means, I don’t watch his content or anything and tbh I found his reaction to the Jacksepticeye thing to be annoying which hasn’t endeared him to me, so I don’t have any skin in the game on his end of things, but there were a lot of people who didn’t hate Elon after the cave diving thing who do hate him now so I wouldn’t really treat that post as gospel personally. A lot of people don’t want to admit it but Elon used to have way better PR than he does now, and a lot of people have changed their minds about him over time. So atm I don’t see any reason to believe that Mr. Beast would revoke his support for trans people for Musk. His support of trans people is more recent as well. Maybe I’m wrong but I’d rather be optimistic about it until he gives me reason not to be.
He probably just didn’t know about how shit of a person he was. In 2020 everyone loved musk, me included, mostly just because most people didn’t dig deep into what type of person he was. I want to give Mr beast the benefit of the doubt here because I don’t think he’s an innately bad person like Elon is.
In 2020 I had nothing but contempt for Musk, and I had a long list of reasons for it at the time. I’m sorry you were late to the party, but he showed his true colors long before 2020.
Just quoting myself here for good measure. *shrugs
Like I said, most people didn’t know that.
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.
I don’t know much about him but from what I know he seems like the kind of guy who would put money above all. I’m guessing as long as he thinks he can benefit from Musk it doesn’t matter if his friend or employee is trans.
