That's not psychology. That's torture for dubious gains. By that stretch of imagination, you can construe any gulag or concentration camp as an examination of psychology.
Psychology would require a double-blind experiment, some kind of control group, etc.
> Possible. But then again you have no evidence to back that up that it's entirely fake.

He already faked videos before.
Most of how reality TV works is by live editing to create narratives and guiding players along what the audience wants to see. It's lies by omission and exaggeration.
> The leaked document doesn't mention anything about faking anything.
Well, of course the official manual isn't going to spell it out, that's stuff that's admissible in court. But learn to read between the lines.
No CEO is going to tell his employees, lie, cheat and steal to get our taxes to appear as low as possible, and our revenue as high as possible. They will say: "Be a go getter. Get those KPIs in the green. Only you can make a difference! Make me proud! Etc."
That said, the leaked production document is alarming even by these standards. "NO DOES NOT MEAN NO" stands head and shoulders above the rest in its implication, even if it didn't sound like a rapist's mantra.
- ninetyninenine 2y ago>That's not psychology. That's torture for dubious gains. No. Examining all human behavior under all circumstances is psychology. EVEN torture. Even so. You call it torture and that's way over the top and offensive because what's happening here is NOT torture. These people are there voluntarily and are experiencing NOTHING even close to torture. I have family members who were in concentration camps so I know this. >He already faked videos before. Should've presented this first. I find it quite likely he faked some videos and others aren't fake. >Well, of course the official manual isn't going to spell it out, that's stuff that's admissible in court. But learn to read between the lines. I mentioned the manual because you didn't bring ANY evidence to the table. The only other official document on the table was the original article and I said IT had no evidence. There is no reading between the lines. Present evidence. Your link here: https://www.uniladtech.com/social-media/youtube/mrbeast-resp https://www.uniladtech.com/social-media/youtube/mrbeast-resp... is good. But again it doesn't mean his whole operation is fake. AND this link is a mild and weak accusation at best that the abandoned city is near a popular beach or can't be reached by car. I happened to watch this video and he never mentioned it was completely remote like that. Those accusations are like saying yosemite isn't the wilderness because buses and shuttles drive around inside of the park. >rapist's mantra. Rapist? You're over the top describing things like this. Rape is a crime. What Mr. Beast does as bad as you think it is, is nowhere even close to rape.
- Ygg2 2y ago> No. Examining all human behavior under all circumstances is psychology. EVEN torture. Psychology is a science. Or at least tries to be. What you describe is sadism. > Should've presented this first. You should have investigated Mr. Beast a bit better before coming into this discussion. > There is no reading between the lines. Present evidence. Have you ever worked in a corporate environment? Honest question. Because I did, and such behavior is standard practice. Never write anything that's incriminating, only discuss in private. Hell, just read about Google and how engineers were told to not use the M(arket) -word in any written communication. https://themarkup.org/google-the-giant/2020/08/07/google-documents-show-taboo-words-antitrust https://themarkup.org/google-the-giant/2020/08/07/google-doc... > Rapist? Whatever this guy is, he's not a rapist. Your language is way over the top. Step 1. Please read what I said. Step 2. Don't add words to my sentences. I said SOUNDS LIKE a rapist's mantra. "No means no" is the female anti-rape slogan. What do you get when you negate an anti-rape mantra? A rapist's mantra. ----- That aside, the 'No doesn't mean No' part sounds absolutely Machiavellian for a guidebook for new employees.
- ninetyninenine 2y ago>Psychology is a science. Or at least tries to be. What you describe is sadism. It's a science and observing human behavior is within the lines of that science. It's not formal application but it's observing human behavior nonetheless. >You should have investigated Mr. Beast a bit better before coming into this discussion. I did, found no evidence, and yours is flimsy. >Have you ever worked in a corporate environment? Honest question. Because I did, and such behavior is standard practice. Never write anything that's incriminating, only discuss in private. I don't care, without evidence everything is just made up circumstance. The possibility is there but your accusations are more than reading between the lines. The concentration camp thing and rapist comparison are evidence of this. >I said SOUNDS LIKE a rapist's mantra. Sounds like your a child molester and pedophile. See what I did there? I only said you "sound" like that. What I said was an example but if it was a real comparison it's completely over the top and uncalled for. Your comparison was completely uncalled for, "No doesn't mean No" doesn't need to be placed in the context of rape, of course he's saying that in the context of an aggressive hustle culture. >That aside, the 'No doesn't mean No' part sounds absolutely Machiavellian for a guidebook for new employees. He's promoting a hustle culture. I'm not too into that myself. But "Machiavellian" is, again, too over the top.
