X appears to be juicing MrBeast’s views to woo the YouTuber to the platform, pushing video upload into users’ feeds as an unlabeled ad::undefined

Like I said, most people didn't know that.

Yeah and I'm of the opinion that it was pretty widely covered at the time, and a lot of people figured it out, so I don't buy that "most" didn't know it.

That was the time he was the most popular. Everyone's was in love with him and though he was the real life tony stark at that point. I hadn't even heard of the fact he called the rescuer a pedo until s couple months ago (way after I realised he was a dick). To be fair, this is all anecdotal, but many people didn't know and I want to give Mr beast the benefit of the doubt. Not to add this was three years ago before all of the other bad stuff he said.
