In the "How to work for Mr Beast" leak, the "no doesn't mean no" section absolutely boggles my mind.

For decades (probably centuries!), the phrase "don't take no for an answer" has always been a common sales technique. If the customer says they aren't interested, you don't necessarily just walk away from the sale. You can continue to try. Why wouldn't they have used that extraordinarily common phrase? The paragraph under the header only ever describes the same concept.

Who thought it was appropriate to negate the "no means no" phrasing that has almost exclusively referred to sexual consent for all recent memory?

Most likely he did it for the same reason any of his video titles are what they are. He's an influencer (or these days, a corporation pretending to be an influencer); he lives and breathes clickbait.
