I personally think satire and comedy shouldn't have lines that people shouldn't cross. When you do that, there's going to be situations like this where the people who shit on someone for a certain kind of comedy are themselves making satire or comedy out of things of the opposite spectrum.

 

It's a dumb double standard, but they can do what they want to Pewds since they're allowed to. 

Honestly, there's really only a line that's "crossed" by white comedians. I know it's cheap to bring race into it, but you can see black comedians roasting their own and white people, and no one gives a fuck. Meanwhile if a white comedian did the same, they'd be shat on because political correctness only applies when you're white, apparently.

This is more loss for YT in reality and screw Disney really.

True. It amazes me how people think that double standard in particular is okay. The logic is "you can't be racist against white people" but y'know, racism is racism if you have a working brain.

 

Like that whole Netflix and MTV thing "dear white people". I know this is a tired counter point already but imagine the doodoo storm if "dear black people" was a thing being published on Netflix.

After watching the video they absolutely blew everything out of proportion. I love his non gaming orientated content. I also love how he simply doesn't care what people think about him anymore. If anything this is only giving him more traffic

 

I am going to have such fun skewering the media for saying false things. I don't like him, nor do I hate him. What I do hate is false information. But I can't agree more that there are literally no fucks at all.

Regardless, you didn't get the joke. So let me be more specific.

All I see is a man (hint, hint left side) looking in the mirror.

So this guy is acting like a idiot, to make idiots that watch this crap feel good about themselves.

I am curious to know why you think he's anything but calm. I don't think he gets angry by the antics of random people on an online forum. Stop assuming left-leaning people take offense to everything.

 

I'm offended. Racism is not OK.

lol, are you against rascism?.. and SJWs?

 

Good for you! 

 

[Memories4K]

I don't care about this at all, how is this tech news at all?

Felix is just memeing, he's not an actual fascist lmao
I don't care much for his content, i don't watch him too much except once in a blue moon when he pops up in my recommended list.
So it really shouldn't mean anything to any individual.

THAT SAID, totally understand companies and corporations like Disney pulling money in order to keep their own image safe.
It's business and nobody is in the wrong here, you can put on your corporate bitch face and say "yes, sir" to get that PHAT paycheck or you can go your own way and see how that works out.
Like this isn't censorship.

I watched his videos for a bit years ago, and don't understand why he's so popular. I guess I'm just not a part of his target audience.

That's because you have intelligence and good standards.

If you really don't know then you're better off not knowing.  ?

 

If you're joking my opinion is there's far better things to watch.

PewDiePie put a couple Indian freelancers, to raise a sign who said "Death to all Jews".

 

According to ArsTechnica, both Disney and Youtube's Paid service Youtube Red cancelled their nhext seasons of PewDiePie shows. According to the site this will greatly affect the Youtuber, who will see a somewhat significant sum of advertizing money out of his pockets, althought Google recommented program will still give him a "quite reasonable allowance"

 

After all the fuss, PewDiePie, said that his actions were affensive but when he hired the freelancer "for 5$ from fivver", he didn't think that they would do such an offensive act, and while the original video was deleted, although we don't know who deleted it Youtube or PewDiePie himself, the guy will not go anywhere, he has 53 million subscribers, and while I personally hate him, many people seem to enjoy what he does, but this wasn't the first time he did offensive stunts, and will certainly not be his last!!

He is doing standard dark comedy, people who don't understand it are either left wing extremists or SJW's, who do not differ from each other that much. I obviously do not sympathize with the nazi's but he did nothing wrong nonetheless.

 

Heil.

  What does this story have to do with politics again? 

 

He paid people to hold a sign saying:  Death to all Jews (or something).  That is not... wrong... to you.  So it is not wrong to anyone then?  Seems legit.

 

Fortunately others can see it more clearly.  It was a stupid thing to do.  If it appeals to you... I have to stop talking now.

I ask that same question about a lot of politicized stuff every day.

If there was some need to change a law or something because of this incident, then I would get it.

 

These guys are just taking any opportunity to attack, what they view as, their political opposites.  A keyboard and the presumption that someone might agree with their message is all they need.
