- It's the season of giving and Bill Maher calls out the haters who complain that TH-cam celebrity Mr. Beast is only serving himself when helping others.
Funny how Mr. Beast actually gets stuff done and the charities are upset and that is because he didn't give them the money to spend on their staff and bureaucracy instead of going directly to the people .
Agree
That’s because charities are usually a front to launder money.
FACTS
You are a genius, so right.
BINGO! in Mexico the president AMLO did exactly that, took out the "NGO middle man" gave directly to th elderly, disabled, farmers, etc...The establishment hates him😂
As a middle aged man, I had no idea who MrBeast was until my kids introduced me to him. I watched an interview where he explained that he initially did what all suddenly-rich TH-camrs do: buy cars, houses, clothes, etc but decided rather quickly that wasn’t his style. Instead, he decided to use the platform to help others and he makes these videos for a reason - the money generated from the videos is what enables him to fund the next big charitable event. He’s created a perpetual charity funding machine and the only thing we have to do to help is watch, like, and subscribe. Brilliant
He also has a whole separate channel for his Philanthropic Desires.
It's incredible to see how fast people sitting at home forget about the people far away who really need drinking water. Im quite glad to hear about mr beast supplying drinking water.
THE TRUTH IS he was doing it for views and most probably doesn't really care about Africans. I know his content. That however doesn't mean he shouldn't have done it. I care more about action than thought, so they should encourage more people to help regardless of the intention.
@@vertigo2894 dude says "THE TRUTH IS...." and then says probably in the same sentence. Shut up, dink
@@vertigo2894 once again, the views fund the charity which he perpetuates each and every time and he chooses to help POC more than any other group
My grandfather was a state senator for many years and loved to tell this joke. “If one day my party cured Cancer, the other will yell at us for putting Doctors out of business”
And Mr. Beast isn’t even political, he is just a white male
I think I would rather have Mr. Beast than all those youtube pranksters who harass for content.
Is that even a question
I'd rather have Mr.beast then every other human with an equal or greater net worth.
I mean not every prankster is like that but yeah also some stuff for just a while ago but yeah
I would prefer a prankster that exploits the rich.
@MA-ts3xs thing is he never had to, he was doing just fine but wanted to help more so he turned his channel into a vehicle of change. It would be like a super profitable company like Pepsi just one day said fuck it share holders are getting 1/8th of their usual growth so we can donate 7/8ths to people and some how seeing it as bad.
As a person who's disabled, and the unending chronic pain that comes with it, it pisses me off to no end when people say my disease is some kind of identity that needs to be preserved. These morons have clearly never bothered to look into the daily burden we go through; they think you just tweak your life with a few chairs and ramps and life is otherwise the same.
You get left out of living most of life that everyone else takes for granted.
Well said. I have mild autism, which makes my disability difficulty for others to see, even though the harm it has caused is obvious. I struggled to finish college and never used my degree, have never been financially independent, and have never had a romantic relationship. I'm what I call a "partial adult." When I was a child, many developmental milestones came late to me. As an adolescent and an adult, they never came. Until I was in my 40s, my family was still thinking, "it will happen for him, it just takes him longer." No, they won't happen. I have a disability that has caused "inabilities."
I found alot of faux sympathy stems from evangelicals who while being openly supremacist in nature(I'm not talking ethnicity but there is a lot of that also) they inherently patronise people with disabilities. The quiet part being said out loud is that able-bodied evangelists consider themselves better in all respect to the disabled, no matter the level of acuteness of a person's condition. To compensate for this ignorance they will actively convince their disabled flock that their disability should be treated as either a friend and/or just God's plan.
@@cassiescornerreviews6884Probably healthy young people
@@JPMaddenI have autism too. I think that Maher's boomerism needs to be solved. But he doesn't think there's anything wrong with him either.😂
Um.. no. Disability is different than health and well being. What Maher said was offensive and dangerous. There is a lot of nuance. Like the difference between being born with a disability versus acquiring one in life, two very different experiences and perspectives.
The only thing that sucks about Mr. Beast is that they aren't 10,000 more of him.
Oh, that gaping mouth he always has in his thumbnail. That has to stop.
The funny thing is, there are more of him (as far as net worth goes) but they don't really do anything like he does. So the "Woke" will complain about the rich doing nothing to help then MrBeast does do something and they complain about that. The lesson learned? The "Woke" live to complain. They don't want actual solutions, just the means to complain and preferably get paid because they are complaining. Which of course shows their hypocrisy towards Capitalism, etc.
so we have 10,000 more punchable smiling face?
@@AbbieFabbieBoBabbie They call it "soy face" and I agree it has to stop. They do it because the TH-cam algorithm has somehow convinced people that soy face in the thumbnail means you should watch this video. And some have said that your video won't get as much traction without it. But I do hate it very much.
Thankyou for your message, I hope you are able to post two per comment on every discussion on TH-cam. It's not annoying at all.@@user-tn8uu2cu8g
The reason why Mr. Beast gets so much done is simply because he just does it. And he does it with money out of his own pocket. No red-tape. No approval committee. No government interference.
Call me cynical....but whenever a celebrity gets involved with charity, it is NEVER something good.
Michael Jackson said he was a philanthropist. That he was bringing sick kids to Neverland, to show them a zoo.
We all know how that turned out....
Jared Fogle said he was a charity guy, too. That he had a non-profit to help kids lose weight.
We all know how that turned out.
Penn State got into this as well. They would bring low-income kids to football games. To show them a good time, they said. In reality, the assistant coach had been molesting them since the 1970s. The real coach knew about it and helped cover it up.
So I get very suspicious when I hear "non-profit" and "famous guy" in the same sentence.
I lost my hearing in adulthood, and four years ago - just a few months before Covid - received a cochlear implant. It has changed my life. It has given me music back. It is the literal definition of a miracle, in my understanding. While I do believe that anyone who is disabled has the right to embrace the world with dignity in any way THEY see fit, I want to say to my surgeons and audiologists: THANK YOU FOR FIXING ME! Go Bill Go!!
Instead of putting buckets on people’s heads or messing with random strangers this guy is out there providing clean drinking water for children and curing disabilities. I’m totally fine with that and I hope more TH-camrs emulate him.
Seriously, what kind of people think they're the good guys by attacking him for doing these things? How warped does your moral compass have to be?
@paulw5039 Exactly.They don't have a moral compass, they will murder for their ideology without a second thought because it is their religion: Marxism, and their imaginary utopia is worth any means.
@@paulw5039Mr Beast ONLY does these things because his goal is to be the most famous and richest TH-cam person of all time. You can listen to him talk in ANY of the long form podcasts he's been on. He is NOT doing philanthropy out of the kindness of his heart. He is not doing it because he is a good person. He is a narcissist, and his ONLY goal is to exploit the YT algorithm for his own fame. The fact that it HAPPENS to be charity and kindness is because that is what WE, the people watching the videos and driving his popularity, want to see.
He would produce literally whatever content generated the most views. He is not a good person, and that's obvious if you just listen to him talk in the podcasts he's been on. He's a self obsessed narcissist.
@@thisisgettingold Yet he's helped so, so many people while you're here being spiteful and nasty about him. Who's the better person again? How do people like you even exist?
@@thisisgettingoldBut will he fight a Cage Match with Elon Musk???
As a disabled person, yes to everything he said. We don't want sympathy, we don't want to be lied to, we definitely don't want it praised, we want it fixed, we just have to accept it usually can't.
You see, the media not all of it, but the majority of it, is down with the new world order, and or donald trumps Authoritarianism! FEMA CAMPs, for the poor! People better wake up!
Agreed! It is not nice or funny to walk through life with a disablity and feeling frustrated because everyone is aware of it but no one helps, they pander or even hinder your way. Some disabilities are life-long and incurable so we have to live with it but that doesn't mean that if given the chance to fix it we wouldn't jump at it if we could not havve to eal with that problem for the rest of our lives.
Exactly, and if a disabled person doesn’t want to be fixed, it’s their choice. No need for the media to scorn those that are making it possible to even be fixed in the first place.
New rule: agree to everything Bill Maher says like he isn't using you as a pawn.
@@vinnym5607 What are you saying? You think disability *_should_* be celebrated?
“Yaknow what else is frustrating? Dying of thirst” 😂
It's not a bad day in the universe when even Bill Maher finally grasps the problem everyone else was warning us about in the 90s.
He said he doesn’t get the woke but is a hardcore leftist
indeed.
@@terpenstine He's beginning to believe...
You mean the problem he ridiculed you and everyone else for trying to point out? That problem? Ostriches like Maher are the reason why this shit was able to spread as far as it has in the first place. Him trying desperately to remain "cool" and relevant by defending the indefensible in order to keep associating with the "in" crowd. His weakness is as much to blame as their miserable hatred.
@@terpenstine
Just because someone is a leftist, doesn’t mean they take leave of all their senses
I'm a paraplegic. My legs are broken and don't work. I already know I'm not worthless. I want to be fixed
How dare you
NO!!!!!! You must PROUDLY refuse help and want to have broken arms too.
Say people who would not be able to endure your situation if they were in it.
Best of luck to you.
@dennistesolat5346
Bill Maher: “Let me take this moment to go on the record,” he said. “If I am blind, deaf or paralyzed, don’t praise me - fix me!”
Dennis (I know you from your CareCure days), you're a longtime para, like me (40 years). There ain't been no fix available in all that time and there isn't one on the near or mid horizon. Given the fixed reality of our injuries, Bill's comments, which were not completely without merit, lacked a lot of important nuance. His was a highly entertaining but straw man argument. He'd make a good demagogue.
I do too, but it's a complete waste of time to worry about a cure that is likely decades away (if it ever happens) on a day-to-day basis.
Although the thing I'd most likely welcome with a cure is a dramatic reduction in the amount of regular mindless condescension from uneducated idiots, moreso than working legs in and of itself.
@@stephenfeldman8104And you make a great moron.
I suspect that many of the 'charities' that complain about people like Mr Beast are upset that he goes to the cause and denies them the ability to syphon off some of the money for their ' executives'. It's just a thought.
Very likely. And it is also very likely that they ALREADY got enough to do what he did and spent the money on "administrative fees" so they couldn't do anything.
Good point. I didn't think of that. I just thought they were resentful that he was effective while they weren't. Also, now they'll have to find some other facility to use as a fundraising appeal. That's why these agencies hate solving problems. There's no employment security in that. Wouldn't it be great if every charity was so effective they put themselves out of business?
EXACTLY!!!
They’re racist and anti white, all of you liberals seem to forget that even though Bill said it 5 times
💯
What he did for the veterans, and planted all those trees, is more than I could have ever done. The well one was amazing. Those kids looked so happy..
Never heard of him but I admire his approach to charity, some folks are just pathetic if they hate what he's done.
Call me cynical....but whenever a celebrity gets involved with charity, it is NEVER something good.

He has done more for people than many charities do when nobody expected him to do it. I worked for charities for years and I think charities should learn from him.
He's done more for people than many countries have done!! How much money do you think these highly paid musicians are giving back? He gives back and he doesn't have to give up any of it to the needy. The face organization I can't remember the exact name it was complaining about him coming in and drilling the wells well that's not even an asset that they can run short of those organizations could have bought a well drilling set up decades ago and could constantly be on the move drilling water wells, but really they just spend most of their money fundraising. Okay admittedly I just made that last part up but it's probably accurate.
My step brother worked for a charity for a short period. He quit after finding out who gets most of the money. It's the charities and their bosses who get big bonuses.
@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5 Jesus isnt real, neither is god, stfu XD
He is far better than as charity. A charity is a business. When disaster strikes, they do much good in the beginning. The problem is they stay around providing free things so that the local farmers cannot sell their produce and animal products, stores can't sell clothing or toothpaste and so on. In the end you have a group left perpetually poor because they cannot compete with the charity. The charity doesn't care though, their CEO is making millions while patting himself on the back for conning people. Mr Beaste goes in and makes a real difference. He provides long term solutions that allows people to lift themselves out of poverty, to stay health so they can work and go to school and play and so on. He doesn't stick around destroying their economy, he helps them to build up their economies. Some of the wells he put in will water crops allowing the people to not only feed themselves, but to also sell produce improving their lives.
A lot of "charities" are just tax havens for activists. And as an activists, you cant ever complete your mission in what youre fight for or youll be out of a job. Think anti-racists really want racism to go away, then what will the do?
He is doing good things and showing the proof of it, which is way more than most other charities do.
All other charities. No one does what Mr beast does
That would prove that those charities don’t do much if anything. That’s why
BLM has done alot for themselves
@SpaceRanger187 like what?
They didn't bring water to their own people. They didn't cure blindness in people or gift multiple good home to poor people... instead their organizations leader got caught stealing the funds.
BLM started out as a great cause that immediately like all other causes got turned into a radical home grown terrorist group.
African governments pocket all of the humanitarian aid
As a disabled person..I want to be fixed and be whole as I once was. Everyone I know with the issues I have also feels the same way. So much so, they are willing to buy medications and take them if it means they might be able to halt their disease even for a little while. Somehow wanting to be healthy is a superiority issue to some people who think we should be grateful for being disabled. It's all part of their victim complex
As the parent of 3 children with disabilities, I will encourage them that they can do so much in spite of their disabilities. But I would give anything if their disabilities could be cured.
How did that happen?
@@midknight9327 probably born w it
Bless you and your children . I wish you the best .
My uncle is an eye surgeon. He went every few years to Africa to do just this type of surgery for free. He helped a lot if people.
Now _that_ is real altruism.
He’s a great person, nice one.
"What a horrible man!" said the useless woke narcissists whose great contribution is tearing everyone down & complaining.
We have the Fred Hollows Foundation. doctors go around the Pacific Islands doing cataract operations. The operation is quick and Doesn't need hightech operation theatres. The people who get their sight back are happy.
I think Bill's misses the point on the wells built in Africa. The complaint is about people doing and trying to do these these things for decades while being unable to get funds, and getting precious little recognition. Then Bill cherry-picks these few comments to attack them.
I am legally blind in one eye. All of those critics can bite me. It sucks to not be able to see.
Same here, except just nearly blind. My line is "If you want to see something funny, throw me a baseball."
It sucks, and if it could be fixed, (and I could afford it to be fixed), I would fix it.
I had cataract surgery in one eye. The other surgery was was canceled by the pandemic. Then I got shingles in the bad eye. They can't even make glasses where both eyes can see, since they're so different. I'm not blind, but my vision isn't great. I agree with you 100%.
I worked doing brain injury research at a rehab hospital. Kids getting hit with baseball bats in fights, people slipping in a tub, strokes, motorcycle accidents. Every one of these people, and especially their loved ones, would do anything to get help. Fortunately or unfortunately, the brain has an amazing ability to heal itself. But usually not completely. Sometimes the deficits are things you can adapt to. Sometimes not. When it involves language, the patients and families are often extremely frustrated. There's a deficit where the speaker talks using non-words, but thinks they're make sense. And they get upset when they ask for something and no one knows what they want. Talk is cheap. Helping people is often very hard.
same, and it gives me migraines. Id give anything to just have normal eyes, or just bad eyes within thevnormal spectrum.
So what if he films them and their reactions for views? That is how he makes the money in the first place and then he doubles back and uses more of it to help more people. Rinse and repeat he has to remain entertaining to keep things going. He is really a legend
He's literally using the Earnings from the videos to help more people, It's a great cycle and I hope more youtubers and celebs start this initiative. If you can get more than 10 million view guys, once or thrice a year gather around and do this kind of initiative to help people.
Because it would not satisfy his need to be validated. He could STILL get views without him being on camera or attaching his name to it.
@@VexylObbyno he couldn’t, the reason he got popular was HIMSELF. once he finally got money from showing himself on camera he began giving it back. obviously he wants to show himself. he’s a youtuber
He got popular because he did things with big money. Any organization could do that without a persona behind it.@@tommyn3522
@@VexylObby You're wrong. These things are getting so much exposure because of his channel and brand.
Trouble with America is social media. Everybody has suddenly got an opinion on everything and many of the responders have zero knowledge on the subject they are responding to.
Yes, thank you. I had polio in 1952. I have been waiting to be healed for 71 years. I was 60 % disabled then.
I was always told that I was equal to everyone else. I never was equal. I am still waiting to be healed.
These people don't care to help you, they just wanna feel good about treating you politely in a condescending way while they let you suffer. If you're healed, they will lose the virtue they got from treating you politely, so they actually prefer it that nobody heals you.
Mitch McConnell had Polio and is disabled.
When Trump held his hand, to steady him going up some stairs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, he was ruthlessly attacked for it.
Attacked for the natural trait of having compassion.
The Left has something wrong upstairs.
Your body isn't equal fam, because we all get a different layout with pros and cons. No one has an equal body, not even twins! But you, your soul, your life, your experienced and lessons? Equal in value to everyone else. If you thought being equal means you get the same things, then someone neglected to teach you that the concept of equality is your right to exist and participate. "All men are created equal," refers to our start and baseline value, and does not say, "All men should receive equal punishments and rewards." (Also, of note, 'men' used to refer to all humans, as the word human was derogatory to refer to the species on par with animals... and back in that day it was culturally offensive to suggest we had anything in common with beasts when we had something as profitable as society rising our behavior above mere instinct. 'Men' back in the day included women and children, and cowards and heroes alike. We were all men, but what kind of man were you...?) It is not your right to receive benefit, because we all use our equality of opportunity differently.

virtually nobody's mad at Mr beast, they just are mad that these problems aren't getting solved more effectively. we shouldn't have to hope Mr beast helps blind people, they were let down by the government, and Mr beast can't afford to fix everything government should have taken care of
And being racist about it. They were whining and blubbering about him being white.
I’m glad he’s helping, by highlighting these issues he makes more money to help more charities, win win.
I wish more influencers would flaunt themselves this way by helping other people.
I can’t believe that the “AFRICAN FRONT” group or whatever it’s called, their spokesperson actually said it out loud, a Freudian slip; “it sucks that he gets all the attention”
It’s so telling, it was never about helping people, just the attention.
If they actually fixed problems they would disappear and then the money would stop.
And the money. Charities have permanent staff typically.
Have you seen the full statement? I think that one was taken out of context cause I saw one similar to this and was actually praising him. Some yahoo writer just chose to leave some parts out to create controversy.
Some aspiring wanna be African politician was the one that was criticizing him heavily without even understanding or knowing who Mrbeast is.
He ruined it. They can't paint "Black excellence " on the wells now
@@thizzgerald361well how does that sentence come together and become “out of context” in the interview? Unless they said “I heard some jerk say ‘it’s too bad MrBeast came in and got all the attention”
You know why they’re angry?
Follow the money.
Most of these “charities” have a vested interest in keeping their stated cause around because as long as it’s there, they have a steady revenue stream.
You get it.
Oh come on it’s totally above board when a charity brings in 10 million in donations, spends 7 million on marketing, 2 million on exec salaries, and 950k on family members’ salaries.
This applies to groups the "Progressives" claim they care about. The minute one of them says something outside of the Progressive victim narrative they are written off as being bad people.
Still 50k more than you spent on a cause. Do it better and STFU
The people that are angry on Twitter aren't even running charities, they're doing nothing.
Actual charities are often really supportive because they know how difficult the work is and appreciate the help and Mr Beast frequently partners with local charities because those people have the required expertise to achieve long-lasting results.
The really important thing for many charities is that, under normal circumstances, they are working to make themselves redundant. They should be working to solve the problem and make the need for the charity disappear. But they don't do that. They're bureaucracies and sink holes of funding. They know that if anything is actually done to solve the problem, they'll lose their funding. Or they'll have to pivot to something else. Stonewall is a good example. Gay rights were largely won, so their job was also basically done. So they pivoted to the anti-gay activism of gender ideology and juvenile medical mutilation, and tricking pubescent kids into thinking that the discomfort of puberty means they're "trans."
For years and years and years I’ve seen all those commercials about Africa. Send a dollar a day bs, nothing was ever done. This guy dug 100 wells in a weekend.
This is one of Bill's best monologs ever. The writing and delivery was 100% on point!

Amen! Bobby Kennedy famously said, lo, these many years ago that there are people who see a problem and say 'somebody' should do something. A second group sees the problem and tries to fix it. But there is also the third group who realize that when you DO fix a problem, usually you actually create another problem. But that doesn't mean you were wrong to fix the first problem.

Notice how the one spokesperson talked about not getting “attention”. Charity is literally meant to be selfless, yet somehow she felt confident enough to make it about her
To say, "no," or to reject, criticize, and belittle is thought of as an indication of strength and independence. To say, "yes," to except, compliment, and praise is thought of as an indication of weakness and dependence. There may also be control issues involved...
The so called "charities" that are complaining about Mr Beast actually helping people should be audited. They are probably paying their executives massive salaries but do virtually nothing to help the people they claim they are helping.
Nailed it!
exactly. Most charities are a scam
Exactly. If he could do it, why haven't they been able to
Was thinking same thing. They have been there years, millions of $ given and they can't compete with this guy.😒🙄🤔🤨
The worst charity is the politicians. They gather donations aka taxes and spend it irresponsibly. Money is not used effectively for the purpose it was set aside for. If only there was transparency in how the money is used and not siphon off to some slush fund for the greedy politicians.
"He did it for the views" I don't give a shit why he did it, he still DID. IT. He built wells in Africa, he gave people their eyesight back which is more than I can say for a lot of people. This is jealousy, plain a simple, people look at MrBreast and think "fuck, what am I doing with my life, god I'm a loser" and need to do or say anything to minimize his effort. My partner is legally blind, I want her eyesight fixed SHE wants her eyesight fixed, but nowadays if I say that It would be seen as ableist or some other shit. If your car loses a wheel you don't accept it for it is, YOU FIX IT!
Justice is dead, and her daughter, Charity, is very sick.
exactly. jealousy n envy.
Sounds like a win/win to me…
Yes, but fixing things is HAAAARD. It's much easier to criticize & protest & accuse & cancel others. These woke people are lazy, so they don't want to do anything that requires personal sacrifice or discipline or hard work or independent thinking. It's easier to be PC & virtue signal & complain about 1st world "problems" made up by the affluent & "educated" (indoctrinated) than to solve ACTUAL problems.
Even if he does it for views that’s good in its own cause more TH-cam views = more money to fund more videos
These are literally the same people who complain that rich people are evil and have too much money, but when they want to use their money to help that's evil too. Can't win with these people... They're completely lost when they can't feel victimized or have anything to complain about. Their way of thinking has been warped to see things differently than normal people.
Nice to see you coming around Bill..... the real world is sick. It needs to be healed. And when folks like you meet folks like me in the middle....... it's awesome.
🇺🇸💪SEMPER FI💪🇺🇸
I am so happy that Bill finally drew the line between liberal and "woke" because liberals want to find solutions to problems, not perpetuate them.
Tell that to the mayors of Los Angeles San Francisco Chicago and New York. The Democrats and the left invented WOKE and worship it. That's why those cities have gone down the tubes.
Now if he would just stop equating "progressives" with the woke. They are not the same.
Shh, don’t tell Bill about Kris and her new pronouns
No, they don’t. Liberals want to tear down the orthodoxy and existent systems because they are convinced that they are the source of all evil. The term originally referred to being free of orthodoxy. It’s why “liberal” was the opposite of “conservative”. Conservatives want to conserve systems, liberals want to break them down.
What Maher is describing is not wokeness, as in empathy for those in a bad situation that is beyond their control. It is _ressentiment_ toward those in a position to help out. It is anti-liberalism in its purest form. Meaning, hatred towards people on the top whether they are of good will or not.
Bill nailed this one. I became disabled when a heart defect became so bad that it made it impossible for me to walk very far or exert myself at all. I'm am thrilled that a cardiac surgeon can repair it and give me back a good life.
That surgeon was clearly seeking attention! 🙄

More people need to watch this. I can’t believe the audacity of these people who are calling out Mr Beast for actually making a difference. This should be a wake up call to everyone that “charities” are a waste of time and money. What we need is actual philanthropists who make a change instead of organizations who only speak of making change.
I've watched Mr. Beast on TH-cam for several years and he's done so much good in the world. Those non profits and media jokes who criticize him clearly don't really care about fixing a problem, they're just triggered because he fixed something they've been faking for a long time. I'm sure he's not perfect, but at least he takes a portion of the money he earns and helps people. BTW, I'm rated 100% disabled by the VA and have been seeing doctors for years IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX ME. Haha, just had to throw that out there.
I feel yuh, I have two sleep disorders and going to a doctor and more of less fixing them was the best thing I ever did. Why the hell would I want to accept being tired and clumsy all the time and always being late and forgetting things?
i've broken my left leg twice, first time shattered, second time clean break, i can no longer run, no longer jump, and while I can walk, it's with MUCH pain - i got used to it
If you can fix it? FUCK YES! I hide it because I don't want to be seen as disabled, and i bring it up when it matterrs. Someone wants me to play football, i'll mention it - going to the movies? no need to bring it up
and i'm NOT saying it's wrong to be disabled, if people think that's the case, oh well, but I don't want to be to be disabled, so i live like i'm not and endure the pain - and people always bring up my bad leg which I don't want to think about, the pain already reminds me, so i don't mention it
We don't have "Healthcare" in America. We have "Sick-care" they will payout machines and meds to help with symptoms. But there in 0 interesting in helping in your health or wellbeing. Gotta keep you ordering refills.
It's because there's money in a treatment, but not much in a cure.
The problem with most NPOs is that if they actually solved the problem they claim to want to solve, they'd be out of business.
It instantly becomes a conflict of interest.

When you only value identity status, then anything that changes that identity (i.e. a cure) is bad. Proving just how dangerous and stupid all this obsession with identity truly is.
As a disabled person, Mister Beast is the only one actually trying to help us for free. In my city we have multiple organizations that pay their employees very well but don't offer much for the disabled; those parking lots have lots of Porsche, Benz, BMW and Cadillacs yet only offer 1 day a week with a waiting list to get assistance with paperwork.
Could you mention the names of the organizations?
@@user-tn8uu2cu8g If I or anyone else followed after Islam, then we would be facing God's wrath. "But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed" (Galatians 1:8-9). The teachings of Islam are very different from those of Jesus and the apostles.
The apostles' teachings have been proven to be from God. "How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him, God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?" (Hebrews 2:3-4). No such support from God is found for Muhammad's teachings.
Jesus and the apostles' teachings match the teachings and prophecies of the Old Testament. "And if you say in your heart, 'How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?' - when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him" (Deuteronomy 18:21-22). Muhammad's teachings contradict the teachings of the Old and New Testament in many places.
Therefore, by God's accepted Word, Muhammad fails the test of a prophet.
"Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ" (Jude 3-4).
Where is this ?
Same everywhere in the world. I worked for a charity in the Philippines for about two weeks that had a compound that could easily hold 250 orphaned or kids in need. They had about 20 kids, while advertising that they were helping 100+ daily. The people who worked there would have a literal feast, costing probably about 5-6k php a day or around 100-120 USD for 5-7 people depending on the day. Now this might not sound extravagant in other nations, 100 bucks for 5-7 people is a pretty good deal, but its not in the Philippines, and it especially isn't when you are all in designer clothes and wearing nice watches and your "housing facility' has about 20 kids who I suspected were actually just relatives of some of the people who worked there.
The business is your condition, so curing it also cures the demand for the NGO. I don't think those critics are that cynical though, just simple of mind and heard something at a seminar or something. Oh hey btw, have you been invited to worship Allah? Crap, someone beat me to it. Nevermind
Bill I agree with everything you said here. It is sad when someone tries to improve anothers life and is told that is bad.
BuzzFeed, now we know what kind of people work and lead their company. Always remember, the articles get reviewed and approved by multiple people, including the editor. The whole company is disabled.
Back in the 1960s my uncles neighbor gave United Way $100 and designated the money to go to an elderly couple at Christmas. Couple months later the neighbor asked the couple how their Christmas was. The old man said good, I even got $20 from United Way. The neighbor was pissed. He went back to the charity and asked what they did with the other $80. They said that was for overhead. I never give to charities
They're only required to donate 10%. If they're famous, they can get away with 1%. Check out the numbers from the Clinton foundation. They spent more money on their daughters wedding than they ever gave away.
straight up robbery! disgusting.
I used to live in London and there when you buy your stuff at the supermarket, they ask you if you want to donate £1 to whatever charity, I used to say yes, until I found out they actually use our money to make their corporate donations, i.e. the more we give, the less they have to. So from then on I started donating food.
I also volunteered for a few charities and the ones for children were blatantly stealing, they were using tricks like giving us, the volunteers, cameras to shoot the event and then collecting and returning the cameras, although in the documents it said that instead of pay we will keep the cameras. Another thing, we were organising games for kids, and they "paid" for the venue, when we arrived it was a free playground, it started raining and thankfully one of the parents had connections with a nearby school so we were allowed to continue with the games in their gym. And don't get me started on the catering that was "late", supposedly the company was owned by someone on the charity's board, I'm sure they were paid, but the kids only got whatever sandwich their parents could get at the local store and we each got a sandwich from a huge cardboard box at the charity's office. It was a freaking disgrace.
@@annak8755 In the USA, those supermarket donations are used by the corporation as a charitable tax deduction. You are increasing their profits.
@@onichan9710 exactly why I learned to say NO to those charity muggers and moral kidnappers
I had a close friend who was deaf and was an active member and volunteer in the deaf/hearing impaired community. When he married a woman who had normal hearing they judged him harshly. And then, when he got cochlear implants and could hear again, they no longer wanted his help within their community. They were vicious to him and his wife.
@@hung8969😂
I never understood the deaf community and their obsession with remaining deaf. Life is objectively easier and tbh safer if you can hear. I get being deaf becomes a big part of someone's identity but don't shun someone because they wanna hear.
They don't want to be left alone, but instead of saying it or asking for help, they lash out. Its a predicable if somewhat sad response.
Crabs in a bucket, man...
@@Itstwofourteen Ah yes. Unfortunately the crabs in a bucket syndrome is pervasive and ongoing. Even in places where society hasn't quite launched yet, the crabs routine might be the very reason they haven't launched.
I'd love to have a big sit down interview with the journalists who slated Mr. Beast and then those he's actively helped and have them read their headlines to those they wrote about.
I wonder how many of them will applaud their headline.
*"No good deed goes unpunished."*
He did some bad deeds.
As someone who had two cataract surgeries last year that restored my crappy vision, I can say I was overjoyed with the results. Mr. Beast, well done!
do you continue to see an eye doctor? how many follow up appointments did you have? as someone whose cataract surgery resulted in five additional surgeries from damaged retina, i am now visually impaired. Not overjoyed. if the people who got surgeries couldn't pay for a procedue that is usually covered by insurance, they arent going to continue aftercare that is necessary to monitor eye health for potential complications. is he going to pay for that too? this kind of surgery isn't as simple as it is presented.
@@MD-pv7rr yes I have had follow-up appointments . It has been Neary two years now. I am sorry you did not have good results.
How fucking dare you? You should have been happy to be blind. As someone that has never had to struggle with anything I have to say you're ability to see just diminishes the struggles of others who can't see..... Or some shit I don't really know.
On a serious note though, that's great and wish you all the best.
@@MD-pv7rrshut up
What's really disturbing is that Mr Beast has probably did more than all these money laundering charities that never really accomplish or help but are quick to accept your money. Maybe that's why they're mad, because he's actually helping
I remember Walmart started a donation organization. They found out that the money was being used to avoid more taxes. There just donating to themselves. lol
You're exactly right. This is the main reason that this charity is angry with him - he's making them look bad. Typical charities are highly ineffective and inefficient. They exist to raise lots of money, and then they spend that money paying various consultants who never actually get anything done. I would even bet that MrBeast built those wells and payed for those surgeries at a fraction of the cost that a typical charity would.
@@cookiemonster208 To be honest like what happen with Walmart. It does make me think they are being inefficient on purpose. You can say the same with how organization combat homelessness in California.
Those money are just making them rich than helping the homelessness.
Before people would say "All those drug addicts wouldn't go back to normal" I have seen someone who is a meth addicted and that is very strong drug. But he change his ways after a year. We all thought he wouldn't change.
I think people should check those harm reduction centers again because if people can't change in a year even light drug like canabis. There simply not doing anything. There just wasting tax money.
I’ve gained respect for bill as he has the courage to call out the hypocrisy of people who generally speaking are “in his camp” politically and ideologically speaking. This video shows how many are “addicted to outrage” and will always find something to complain about. Glenn Beck wrote a book with that title.
This is one of Bill's finest moments. Respect.

AMEN!! I met Jimmy (Mr. Beast) when he worked with our non-profit in a genuine and very beneficial way. He is actually shy and reserved, and really gives a damn about making this world a better place. I’ve also worked with the executive director of Beast Philanthropies, and he is one amazing, kind, giving human being. Both he and Jimmy are self-made and independently wealthy - and they choose to focus on those who need it most, making this world better. If only all those idiots criticizing their efforts would do the same!
True. He didn't steal his money from anyone. And he decides to use it how he sees fit which coincidentally helps thousands of people in need. I am tired of the virtue-signalling epidemic we're seeing these days, where passersby just complain how this or that guy are not perfect and should up their game, while they do absolutely nothing themselves.
How much did Jimmy pay you to say this? Because I've heard he travels frequently to Thailand to have young boys fart in his mouth.
so you're proud of taking money from millions of children and their overburdened and tragically underpaid parents to prop up the image of Jimmy's corporate brand? I didn't think chat bots could be evil yet...

Call me cynical....but whenever a celebrity gets involved with charity, it is NEVER something good.
Michael Jackson said he was a philanthropist. That he was bringing sick kids to Neverland, to show them a zoo.
We all know how that turned out....
Jared Fogle said he was a charity guy, too. That he had a non-profit to help kids lose weight.
We all know how that turned out.
Penn State got into this as well. They would bring low-income kids to football games. To show them a good time, they said. In reality, the assistant coach had been molesting them since the 1970s. The real coach knew about it and helped cover it up.
So I get very suspicious when I hear "non-profit" and "famous guy" in the same sentence.

Mr Beast is quite honestly one of the very few excellent billionaire role models out there not "trying" to make the world a better place he IS making the world a better place, does nobody else think its very strange that its taken decades for charities to stop Africa being a 3rd world country ? yet they put those Adverts on TV every year asking for more money.
"isnt it strange how an entire continent in constant need of help constantly needs help"
you do know it would take BILLIONS to solve every problem in "Africa" right? you really think a bunch of suburban moms giving 1 dollar a day for a month or two is gonna raise the cash required?
They're complaining he's helping people, whilst they're doing nothing.
they're making six figure salaries doing studies and going on junkets only to talk about the problems but doing little if anything to solve them while pissing away millions in donations....
don't assume. they might have been aid workers already in country complaining about mr Beast drawing attention away from their organizations.
i mean, they're still being silly, but we shouldn't assume the folks criticizing are doing nothing.
No, they're complaining that a mortal man has a cult of personality aura about him and that people who are attracted to such folks aren't exactly the best critical thinkers out there. It bears mentioning that a lot of Mr. Beast channel subscribers are children.
In a few of these cases, they are actually mad that he was white.
Well see if you gave THEM money then they could "do more" for the "right reasons" read skim most of it for themselves.
I don't usually agree with bill on politics, although I think he's very funny. However, here he is 100% correct. As someone who has lived with cerebral palsy all my life. I would kiss the feet of anyone who could cure me. I think people have confused not being ashamed of being disabled, which nobody should be. It is not your fault, with disability isn't really an impediment, which trust me it is.
So Mr. Beast is a ho for likes. And? A thousand people were cured of a curable ailment thanks to him. He deserves twice the followers and the likes.
I wouldn’t call myself disabled (at worst I’m mildly autistic) so this may come across as uninformed, but I think what needs to happen is that people on the left need to stop romanticizing disabilities. We shouldn’t mock or exclude people for having a disability, but we should help and encourage people to find ways to adapt (idk if this is the right word) to those disabilities. When my mother learned I was autistic, she immediately began to look for ways to treat it. I likely would have been much worse off if she hadn’t.
I don't even think this has much to do with disabled people. These journalists mostly want to create controversies that sanctimonious leftists can grab on to. Secondary to that, they want to destroy traditional society by erasing conventional categories. Disabled people just happen to be collateral damage here.
@@calebmacenka3132 - Autistic itself used to mean profoundly retarded. It is now used loosely to describe almost any atypical behavior. They had to use the term "mentally retarded", because "mentally handicapped" was considered mean. They had to change it to "mentally handicapped", because "mongoloid" was considered mean. They had to change it to "mongoloid", because "idiot", "moron", and "imbecile" were considered mean. Whenever everyone is informed of the meaning of the new word, it will invariably be considered mean, and changed by well-meaning "imbeciles".
@@calebmacenka3132 If she had celebrated and enabled it, you might have become one of the people in the Reddit stories that is a problem for all around them. But thanks to her now you can't call yourself disabled. Because you are not.
I have adhd and a learning disability. if there was a full on cure so I can focus on my work and studies, I would take it in a heartbeat. For these people to say “you don’t need a cure, be proud of your disability” is beyond narcissistic to tell a disabled person to never live a normal life and never accomplish their goals or set new ones with said cure.
As someone with adhd, the only help I hated was the help that hindered me and acted like it was help. Not when another kids mom actually helped me, apparently that was too far.
Exactly! I've been on a dangerous stimulant for nearly 15 years at this point. If there was a cure for my ADHD I would climb Mount Everest to get it.
MrBeast is absolutely doing it for the views and publicity... So that he can raise more money to do more of this charity work and help more people.
So many people upset at having their own inadequacies reflected back at them, or worse not being able to pocket the money for themselves.
Love this! I have cerebral palsy and have overcome my condition, and I’m thankful people are more respectful of disabilities, but I’d love any research that made me and millions of others not have to deal with our cerebral palsy anymore. We want more research and we want everyone with CP to benefit from research.
❤
You are good looking, no homo! 🤣
Yes my cp brother. Love my life, also advancements.
In the CP club too and my condition is regressing and I don’t like it. Advancements are not ableism. Ableism is being in a restaurant on your way to the restroom and a stranger called a “warrior”. My legs work poorly and I struggle to walk. If this is where I stay, treat me like an adult who is capable of being a functioning human being not a child. Why can’t people just understand that distinction?
So my daughter has CP as well, but hers seems more mental than mainly physical. I mean she has the traits of that, how did you overcome it?
As someone with a physical disability, I absolutely love playing “will I be able to bend and wipe my ass today?” Yes, I absolutely need to be fixed.
...and if fixing some of us is impractical for some reason or other, then may I suggest: Bidets for us all! 🎊 🤗(please!)

“Can we shit on something challenge” Bill had me on that one.
Once again you have highlighted a real issue that needs to be addressed in a serious way. I have been watching my wife slowly die and become completely debilitated from Multiple Sclerosis for the past 23 years. I have exhausted our monetary resources and my own physical and mental well being to fight this thing, so thank you Bill for shining a light on the issue of disabilities if only for a moment.
Same with me. My wife has been slowly declining physically and mentally for the last 17 years for then unknown reasons. We finally discovered a few years ago she has an extremely rare genetic disorder that affects her entire body causing cognitive and physical decline. She's currently trying a new medication that only became available earlier this year. The damage that has already been done is likely permanent, but we're hoping the treatment will stop or slow the progression at least. 🤞

Seeing real virtue frightens and angers these people who do nothing but virtue-signal. They're fake and they know it.
Couldn’t have said it better, myself! 👍
I don't think they know it at all. They're quite convinced that they're correct. They are encouraged and congratulated by their peers, which is why the problem persists.

how many of the people who had cataract surgery sponsred by jimmy donaldson had complications? is he going to pay for their aftercare and long-term issues that result? helping wrong is not looking deep enough into the issues? maybe labeling it wrong (to get more clicks) is more appropriate. cataract surgery is NOT a cure for blindness.

Giving money is really critical to this though. If it is more efficient for people to work their job as a doctor or whatever, and donate instead of volunteer, we should be happy about that.
What I love most about Mr. Beast is that he doesn’t just donate to some organization, so that organizations’ leadership can then use the bulk of that money to fly business class, have lavish meals, throw ridiculous soirées, etc. Nope, he identifies an area of need and then makes a tangible difference with minimal spillover.

He certainly isn't asleep like you are: a Jew who is helping to promote the up and coming rightwing HOLOCAUST. They are obviously replacing the word "Jews" with the words "the woke." FOR NOW. They're coming for Jews also, or hadn't you noticed? WAKE UP, Bill Mahr, and quit conserving your common sense, like conservatives do. Jesus Christ is a "bleeding-heart liberal."

Then the other guy suggested that all the guests pay the bill, which since the guests were two thirds my friend’s household meant that they were paying for 2/3s of five people’s incredibly expensive meals. My friend was so pissed at the whole situation particularly since they hadn’t chosen the restaurant, the person who invited them there made way more money than them and knew it and it wasn’t their idea to pay for it yet just because they went out to this place they ended up having to spend thousands of dollars all the sudden based on some random dude’s idea
Why would I pay for a senior's dinner? Isn't that their job? Maybe a cultural difference.
too many people have the knee-jerk reaction of equating 'profit' with 'selfish'.
There's people that abuse donor money and grant money for their 3rd world ventures and they probably don't like the fact that this one guy went in and actually solved the problems they were purportedly "solving" with money flowing to them.
An old expression, "No good deed goes unpunished".
@@user-tn8uu2cu8g Let Jesus Christ in your heart. Let Love in your heart. Let go of the hate of false religions.
These people are doing nothing more than exposing their own incompetence.
They are just afraid they will lose their turf. Pretty much all institutional charities have a perverse incentive to ensure whatever it is they are nominally there to solve actually persists forever so that sweet donor cash can then go to executive travel packages, fancy dinners and speaker fees. Mrbeast just said let's cut out the middle man and the charities and people like hasan "3M dollars mansion in california" piker are seething.
Not everyone can be so lucky. His abilities have more to do with timing, luck, and wealth. So what you are saying is not relevant.
Do you want him to double the homeless population in your city? Why not?
Mr beasts mom did an awesome job raising him, hats off to her for raising him to be who he is today.
👏👏👏👏👏
“Gretchen Wieners had cracked”
Gotta say, I’m loving Bill Maher more and more.
We're really at a point where curing the blind is seen (ha) as a bad thing?? That's where we're at?
the people against this stuff are for universal healthcare...where everyone would get cured not just a 1000 ppl of mr beasts choosing. is that a bad place to be?
The point was that Mr. Beast was accused of just doing it for the attention and was on some level using these people for content. That doesn’t mean that it wasn’t good that these people had cataract surgery however.
The other argument was
"Why does (rich person) need to come and cure people. We should have universal Healthcare to do that."
Nevermind all the cured people. Their feelings about being cured don't count
@@bellumsemper2654exactly. I’m in favor of Medicare for all, but there’s no reason to attack Mr. beast for helping people in the meantime.
@@bellumsemper2654 the valid form of criticism is to say what you said - that what he is doing shouldn't need to be done and it's a sign of how bad things are. But people stupidly then take that and blame him for that being the state of things. As if he could simply choose instead to single handedly implement universal healthcare and save everyone.
It's just a mob mentality, they know they're angry about something but they don't fully understand what it is so they end up attacking everything.
