The allegations also include claims that the games were rigged to favour young athletic men.

      Selling illegal lotteries to kids, in the form of T-shirts. Then spending 0.001% of it to show how much of a “saint” he is. Also accepting donations from Gates foundation and similar organisation to peddle climate-change optimism propaganda through shell NGOs, getting huge tax writeoffs? Skipping out on organisations/unions related to game fairness and stage safety to cut costs over OSHA guidelines? Make certain incidents on CGI to cut costs again? Rinse, repeat. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat again? Sukkseccs!

    The video also includes a discussion about the project name for “Beast Games” being “Project Greenlight”, which is a reference to the first deadly contest in the show Squid Game. Pansino believes that MrBeast is trying to recreate Squid Game and is leaving the viewer with a disturbing image of Jimmy dressed like the villain from Squid Game.

    At long last, I have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don’t Create The Torment Nexus

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
