Isn’t it a given we’re talking about the English speaking world?
I’m sure there are tons of Chinese influencers I’ve never heard of.
Mr Beast is well spoken which as far as I’m concerned makes him a reasonably ok influence.
If I was a parent I’d probably be ok with my kids watching him. We have a talk about advertising, I’d want them to understand he’s basically just a salesman.

- 999900000999 1mo agoThe context of the article being in English has to matter here. I don't know how German works, I wouldn't expect Mr Beast to change how German kids speak. Not sure about Germany, but I think France has a government organization specifically tasked with keeping French French. Local businesses are encouraged to use French words in naming and advertising.
