I used neither the words "good" nor "bad" so I think you're responding to something that I didn't write.

Why is the "noble"ness of his actions relevant?

He's not viral because of charity, he's charitable because he was already a highly viral video creator. It's not a comment on his videos, it's a comment on the NY Times framing.
As much as I agree with that analysis. I still think being charitable instead of blowing money on hookers, drugs and cars is something to applaud.
Just like many other celebrities that continue to make money of their lifestyle which isn’t something to applaud.
I believe Snoop Dog did his fair share of charity but I definitely don’t applaud his endeavors in pornography and drugs.
On the other hand I don’t have any idea if mr.Beast spends money on hookers.
But if I would choose which content should be more available on the internet I’d go with me.Beast not Snoop Dog.
