While MrBeast keeps digging himself deeper into scandal surrounding his dubious practices (no, not manipulating his underage audience, but for organizing lotteries which broke the law), there is one voice visibly missing from this whole situation.
Penguinz0, aka Charlie or MoistCritikal, known for having an opinion about everything in the universe, from hamburgers to nuclear weapons and from dating to cryptocurrency, missed just one topic in the past few years. And this topic is the topic of all topics - the crumbling down "career" of MrBeast, who, apart from introducing children to gambling, has done some shady things in the past, which now he tries to edit out of people’s minds (and YouTube history).
I have no doubts Penguinz0 will dive deep into this scandal and root out the evil on YouTube. After all, he is an expert on everything in the world. But I guess in everything else, other than MrBeast and his questionable life choices. So far, MrBeast hired two law firms to silence the "whistleblower" who exposed his practices (as innocent people do), removed videos made by other youtubers who reported on that situation (as innocent people do), hidden the evidence on his own YouTube channel (as innocent people do), have not responded in any way to the accusations, now is in the process of re-editing old videos so they would not show the root of the accusations (as innocent people do).
So what Penguinz0 has to say about this? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. A man, who so far had something to say about everything that can be found on YouTube or on the Internet, now went completely silent. Of course, this has nothing to do with his participation in a tournament for youtubers organized by MrBeast, during which poor Charlie folded down like a beach chair while facing people he relentlessly criticized (like Logan Paul) while locked down in his home, explaining that "it was nothing personal". According to his version of events, at this point in time he knew nothing about Logan’s lawsuit against Coffeezilla. Ok, Charlie, now you know about it and... still nothing. Well, not exactly nothing, he returned to his safe zone and criticized it in front of the camera. Slightly.
Well, let’s get back to the MrBeast situation, which blew up on the Internet - every single comment channel had something to say about this. Except for Penguinz0, who decided to concentrate on the hamburger lists and kitchen equipment. I mean it’s a sensible thing to do - if you know nothing about something, the best you can do id remain silent. But if Penguinz0 would use that rule more often, his channel would be mostly the crickets and some gaming videos. Well done, Charlie, you show the world how to comment on important issues! One day. Maybe. If no new exciting kitchen equipment will pop up in the spotlight.

As someone once said, Charlie has only opinions of the general audience - picks only the low-hanging fruits, adds a clickbait title and repeats what is the general consensus regarding the topic. No idea how he can be as popular as he is.

I like some of his videos, but sometimes he is a huge douchebag

add a commentYouTube is about to crack down on one, tiny aspect of their platform, which might lead to beginning of the end for this giant streaming provider.
Recent events in the world brought the best in some people, the worst in others, but left one group completely indifferent to a lot of things and that group are streamers, youtubers, influencers and other -ers that I probably never heard of.
The 2020 pandemic made changes in lives of many, many people - for most it was negative impact, but as this article should highlight, for some it might have been a blessing in disguise. It is the curious case of SkapeGote, a Canadian man, who by accident became a youtuber.
Three completely different personalities created a quite unique youtube gaming channel called Outsidexbox in 2012. After about 8 years of successes, they reached a surprising decline they still cannot recover from. Yes, it’s gonna be one of those "how to miss a point in 3 easy steps" stories.
Untamed Isles, an open world MMO game, which was funded by users of Kickstarter, just went into hiatus after 2 years of development. The project got 4 times the money the developers asked for, so... of course it is another huge fail.
Wargaming, company behind World of Tanks, World of Warships and World of Warplanes, is known for its predatory marketing approach towards customers, so article like this is nothing new or nothing surprising, but there might be people unfamiliar with the topic, so... Yeah, there are things that need to be said.
GSC Game World has done it again - they postponed the premiere of Stalker 2. Again. Once more. Yet again. The umpteenth time. And that is the whole news.
Phasmophobia was just upgraded with Apocalypse update, which is... a good news. But at the same time made the biggest problems of the game even more visible.
