Controversial online personality Andrew Tate equated popular YouTuber MrBeast to The Biblical Devil in a recent video on X while talking about Ava Kris Tyson's grooming allegations. For context, the MrBeast crew member has been at the center of much controversy after she was accused of sending inappropriate and sexual texts to a minor in the past.
While the minor in question has denied being exploited, deeming the grooming allegations as "massive lies", Andrew Tate has gone on to cast aspersions at Ava Kris Tyson and MrBeast in a video he posted on X. At one point during the rant, he compared the YouTuber's channel name to the biblical beast, stating:
"Why would the largest YouTube channel with an affinity towards children in the world be named after the Beast from The Devil? Why would that happen, is that a coincidence?"
Andrew Tate calls on MrBeast to change his brand name after the Ava Kris Tyson controversy
On July 22, several social media posts and YouTube videos alleging Ava Kris Tyson of sending explicit messages to a minor a few years ago started garnering traction. Clips released by several YouTube creators such as Prism42, Breone, and others highlighting alleged screenshots of the messages went viral on websites like X, getting millions of impressions within hours.
As mentioned, the child who the messages were allegedly sent to has come out in Ava Kris Tyson's defense. But that hasn't stopped online personalities from keeping up with the accusations, and Andrew Tate seems to be one of them with MrBeast, who is a friend of Tyson's, getting caught in the crossfire.
The Romanian resident prefaced his thoughts about the YouTuber's username by using a transphobic slur against Ava Kris Tyson, stating:
"So MrBeast's tra**y friend has been caught talking to kids, trying to f*ck children. Surprise surprise, didn't see that one coming, f*cking hell."
Andrew Tate then went on to claim that MrBeast's name was "strange", insinuating that it was nefarious in some way:
"You know what's most amazing to me about this whole scenario? That no one seems to point out this guy's name— MrBeast. Don't you think that's a bit of a strange name. I'm sure I can google it and there would be some bullsh*t reason why he's called MrBeast."
After claiming that it was a reference to the Mark of the Beast from the Bible, Andrew Tate went on to bring up his signature conspiracy theory about the 'Matrix' controlling the world and claimed that MrBeast had to have its approval:
"Considering the fact that you don't get to become the largest YouTube channel in the world without permission from The Matrix, because they throttle the accounts they don't like and they take subscribers off and they prevent the accounts to tell the truth from getting views. If you are getting that many views and that many subscribers, they are pushing you to the front with the algorithm."
Andrew Tate then went on a rant against the LGBTQ+ community, stating:
"And by coincidence, it is the account they want the kids to see is named after The Beast. And these are the same people who openly admit that they are coming for your children. They chant it in the streets at the LGBT parades, 'We are coming for your kids.' Because the LGBT agenda has no future without your children, they can't have kids, they can't reproduce, they need your kids."
Readers should note that Ava Kris Tyson is trans and her identity has caused numerous online personalities such as Andrew Tate to talk ill of MrBeast in the past. After Andrew Tate went on a tangent about the LGBTQ+ community, he came back to criticizing MrBeast claiming that he knew what Ava had done by transitioning was wrong and that he should rename his channel:
"You can get to the top by selling your soul or being ignorant. You can be like this MrBeast kid and you can sit there and go, 'I didn't know, my friend just became a tra**y and I just say what they want me to say and I don't know.' But he knows what he is doing, he knows it is wrong. If he had any semblance of honor, he would rename his channel. Why not, right? You're big enough to go through a rebrand, friend."
Readers should note that MrBeast has been highly supportive of Ava Kris Tyson's gender identity, publicly talking about transphobia after she went public with news about going through HRT.
Regardless, Andrew Tate went on calling MrBeast out for naming his channel after the Beast from the Bible, claiming that America is a Christian country and that the YouTuber should not accept his friend Ava Kris Tyson because she is trans:
"You can sit there and say, 'You know what, I can understand my name can be misunderstood and I have a responsibility that comes with my popularity and I should probably change it into something more positive name about helping the world. Instead of being a beast of some sort, especially the Beast from the Bible itself, in a Christian country America.' If he had any semblance of honor, he would not be accepting all of this transgender sh*t from his friend."
Andrew Tate's clip calling out MrBeast and claiming he should drop Ava Kris Tyson because she is trans has gone viral on social media, garnering millions of views.
