cartridgedreamThe people hating on him clearly haven’t seen much of his content lately. He’s grown up and has his life together pretty well now. If you think nobody is deserving of a second chance then you do you, nobody is forcing you to watch his content. I honestly love his redemption arc and I’ve watched some of his content lately and really enjoyed it. And good for him that he likes self hosting and is doing all these pc DIY projects.
Tollana1234567he dint really accept his/or dealt with the consequences, he merely fled to japan to avoid and waited til all the drama died down, he mostly isnt on a redeeming arc, everyone just forgot about him.
People moved on long before he moved to Japan, or at least most people, there are still some that hate him for a mistake he made many years ago.
People can change and grow up and deserve second changes, I grew up racist just because of my environment, but as I got older I grew out of that and saw that it’s wrong and hurts and divides people.
Am I also unremarkable because of what I used to be like before my brain was fully formed?
Over the years I think I care less about some public apology or statement to accept that a creator has moved past old behavior (I assume you’re talking about the bridge, I don’t really follow PewDiePie).
We see too many fake apologies and if it’s been some time, apologizing just gives an opportunity for viewers to dogpile when someone is trying to move past something.
I think if it’s been a few years and he’s clearly shown to have grown past it, that’s enough for me. You never really know what a content creator’s private beliefs are just how they choose to use their public persona.
NostraDavidhe dint really accept his/or dealt with the consequences,
What else would you want him to do?
And what consequences are you specifically talking about?
driving_croonerAre the videos with Shapiro and the one recommending Paterson book online?
I’ve never seen piewdiepie before his Linux journey. What did he do and what consequences does he deserve?
He did/said a bunch of racist shit in videos/streams.
In 2019 someone livestreamed themself committing a hate-crime/mass shooting, killing 51 Muslim people in New Zealand. The shooter began his livestream with “subscribe to Pewdiepie!”
That seemed to be a rude awakening for Pewdiepie, and I believe that he’s stopped with the racist shit.
Someone also defaced a holocaust memorial, but that just tangential, he was an integral part of the alt-right pipeline radicalizing normies
What racist things did Pewdiepie do/ say himself though? I don’t think it’s fair to attribute someone using his name to commit terrorism to him.
Similarly the guy who shot trump was wearing a demolitionranch shirt.
He’d use the N-word, and make “jokes” like paying people to make a sign that said “death to all Jews”.
I assume that he was trying to be edgy, but it was a little too far.
Just want to point out that he used the N word once, got hugely criticised for it, and didn’t do it again.
Not trying to defend nor minimise any of his actions, btw. Take from that as you will. Just want to clarify, as in my opinion your wording kind of implies he did it regularly.
