No pranking, no real adult themes. Lots of silly games that while I might not enjoy are at least not crossing any clear morality lines. It might not be Mr. Wizard but pretty wholesome compared to the other stuff I have seen online.

Additionally from the interviews I have seen from him, he seems grounded and treats his employees well.

There are different ways to define "wholesome" but when looking at clips/videos of that get mass produced these days, I could see classifying his as wholesome.

> No pranking

Not really correct

Fair, I guess in this age of internet media I was thinking of all the harmful content out there and while yes he does pranks, they either seem staged or the kind of prank like we made him think he won a car but we actually bought him a house kind of pranks.

One rule of mine for content is: it's either learning or entertainment.

What kind of entertainment is MrBeast for you?

It's fine to pay (with clicks) for MrBeast (and Elon) to blow things up, or whatever, for the lulz.

What are you asking? Your question was how is he wholesome. I don't watch MrBeast on any regularity. I have seen his videos though and have seen most of his interviews. I don't have a classification but I can see how would could group his content in the wholesome category, not Wizard but not "Hey bro let me punch you in the face" prank.

I can undersrand that he's not the worst.
