Netizens Reaction
Beyond creating buzz, MrBeast took it to X to discuss the criticism he received in the light of his one of the best charity videos. Jimmy noted that several people were “mad” as they believed the work to be government’s responsibility to look after the development work.
Furthermore, MrBeast stated, “When we help people (curing 1000 blind people, building 100 houses, 100 wells, etc) people get mad and say I shouldn’t be doing this and governments should.” While agreeing with the netizens’ view on government fixing the scene as its their primary responsibility, Jimmy wanted to make a change & was not in a mood to “do nothing.”
“Yes, ideally a YouTuber isn’t the one fixing these issues but I’m not just gonna stand by and do nothing.“

Despite his efforts to do good, he has garnered attention for his charitable activities. In May 2023, he bought multiple houses in his neighbourhood for family, friends, and employees, prompting internet critics to draw comparisons to a ‘company town,’ a residential area owned by a specific business or employer.
However, this has not hindered him from creating Beast Philanthropy videos and promises that all the money earned from this project video would be plugged into charitable measures.
