Don't hide behind free speech
At least have the gull to admit you're sticking up for white supremecy​

This is the crux of it.
What makes this so dangerous is people don't care. Look at his likes/dislikes and comments. Look at his Tweets and responses. People just do not fucking care. They attach to personalities and celebrity. It confuses and honestly frightens me because short of these people being forced to stop I don't see how this kind of shit doesn't build to a much worse breaking point.

Wait... do my taxes go to Twitter?
Banned is the least of the things I want for them. Punching has been a great start.
Guess what! The EVIL MSM turned out to not be evil at all. What a surprise. I'm sure all the YouTube kiddies will agree that their hero was wrong and that the WSJ was right.
Right.

SMDH, Ethan.

I care more about my misunderstanding of what free speech is than condemning racism.
How long before, "racism and white supremacy is just his opinion".
Shit's like clockwork.

You have no idea how free speech works.

Is it impossible for people to just make a damn apology? You were wrong.
for real lmao
No. If you want to have a discussion with those people head over to their own terrible forums.
I've learned most fuckers don't

Can I claim your doggo avatar now?"This is who we're dealing with, folks"
*pulls down screen*
Ethan believed a racist before he did a news organization. He then tried to take down said news organization, only to play himself.
I associate people like you with racists. I wouldn't want to deal with racists or violent people like you.

These advertisers are making a dumb move.
They're pulling budget from one of the very few properties online where you can buy video advertising at scale that actually drives results.
Good luck getting any sort of ROI from daily-toaster-reviews.org that sees 90% bot traffic and shows your ad below the fold on mute to the tens of real humans a day who don't bounce away from the site fast enough.
Great news for anyone who wants to sell anything - YouTube CPMs on premium channels and keywords are probably as low as they will be for a long time. It'll likely never be this cheap again.

The Civil War? Sounds like a defense of minstrel shows.
Phocks has had more than enough replies that he won't respond to, so cut out the dogpile.
And seriously, if your contribution here can be summed up as "I can't believe it!" "Fuck" "Fuck that dude" or any variety of post that's already been seen a dozen times that adds nothing but self-gratification, just spare us. It's be nice to be able to read a thread without a million one-liner shit posts, and I'm too tired to ban everyone.
It's in the OP, the reading of which is necessary to participate.

"i'm sorry if you were offended by what i said about you, *lame*street media!!! plz like and subscribe"
Ethan claimed to have a smoking gun that proves the WSJ lied.
People realize he's spewing bullshit.
Ethan releases a non apology video
WSJ makes it clear that they are watching Ethan very closely

It's like trying to "reclaim" the swastika or Pepe at this point. It's a lost cause.

Congratulations, you really deserve it!
The YouTube generation are horrible
Hugh Mungus what?
When people just continue to dig and dig and dig...they will not apologize sometimes. Instead, they will do everything but apologize. No matter what.
I just don't think there is any hope of engaging people who literally are white supremacists and think I'm subhuman.
What did the Hugh mongus guy do? He seemed innocent in that video
It's definitely a post-internet thing, sadly. Not even South Park could predict how absurd this has gotten.
Is that Pony vaping or what.

Eh, isn't it just as likely that people stop making videos that are likely not to gain ad revenue and shape up?
The swastika's still used in other connotations in Asia, though. Is there some foreign country or region where Pepe, ponies, and anime are untainted with racist associations?

Or that, faced with the loss of the little bit of money the giant sinkhole that is youtube actually brings in, google may begin actually enforcing some form of decent curation of content.

You have to realize by now that this means nothing, especially on the internet.
Anyway, if you actually are sticking up for the right to speak of everyone and not just white supremacists who dig their own graves or their willing associates, more power to you.

New media v. Old Media in the cage match of the century. Turns out New Media is a moron and doesn't actually know any MMA moves to save their life. Got punched out like Ronda after talking somethin' fierce.
(Ethan thought he hit on the goldmine of the century to attack the WSJ and used fake screenshots from a known racist in his videos. Then as new evidence came up showing how wrong he was he took it down and made an 'apology' video.)
Edit: Sorry I meant 'apology' as in doubling down on the original claim minus the evidence saying it still could be real, while somehow not apologizing at all.
