Thanks to the mods for taking out the trash, and boy was it a lot of trash.

It amazes and disturbs me that we live in a world where someone can call someone else, flat-out, an f'ing n-word, and yet there were this many people willing to die on the hill of bullshit equivocating apologism for it.

You could have just typed "who cares" it would have been faster.

Out of curiosity, who here said a slur in private regarding Muslims, Asians, etc. in their daily life ? Just wondering how widespread this is. Not trying to defend him.
I do so once or twice a year. Obviously I try not to, but sometimes with work things can get stressful and I slip up.

When I do, I chide myself out or apologize immediately to those near and explain that it's stress.

Through this I've managed to drastically reduce my slip ups over the year.

And I can bet you anything this guy won't do that, instead opting for the "it's not me, it's everyone ELSE whose wrong!" mentality we've seen so often as of late.
God I fucking hate this tweet/image

Hey. As long as it doesn't bother you, it doesn't bother me. Let's stop talking about this now.

Tyler The Creater is not the dude anyone should take life advice from

Flower Boy is fire though
 
YouTube is complicit in supporting white supremacy.
Just as Republican voters last November are complicit in supporting white supremacy.

If you don't take action, you agree that your platform should be used to peddle racist dogma and white supremacist ideals to children.
They can't remain silent, pretend they care, not punish Felix and allow him to continue to generate revenue for both him and their platform.
They're either a platform of white supremacy being peddled to children... or they're not.

So long as PewDiePie is allowed to continue to post videos on their service, they endorse it.
Period.

If PewDiePie was some lowly youtuber with under 1million subscribers, Youtube would proudly take the high ground and terminate his account. But since PDP has 57 million subscribers, and probably brings in a good chunk of ad revenue for the company, they are weighing their options. If more 57 million youtube viewers said "I'm not going to watch another youtube video until they terminate PDP", and they actually walked the walk then they would probably terminate him. If only a few thousand people boycott the use of youtube, then youtube probably feels leaving PDP's account alive is the best financial choice for them. Its all $$$ people. It's why with the "Youtube adpocalypse", Youtube mainly policed the content creators with under a million subs and left bigger youtubers like PDP alone.

I wish more people were like you, awesome. I feel as if we're losing the battle against racism sometimes.

All in all...stop defending his bullshit. He graduated from rape jokes to nazi/holicaust jokes to flirting with alt right rhetoric to dropping a racial slur while live. There's nothing to defend here.
Like, this is the craziest shit to me. He's only gotten worse at this. He hasn't learned why shit like that isn't okay and he hasn't even learned how to keep himself from slipping in public. Fuck this guy

Hmm not sure I follow, considering that I'm a victim of racism on an almost daily basis. I'm not really buddy buddy with racists to be quite honest. Especially when they follow you in their car after having insulted your religion.

So no, I'm not trying to defend him.

So why are you asking? Did you just decide to feel something out that you had been wondering about or?

I don't care who you are, you don't randomly say shit like this out in the open in a moment of anger or frustration. Whenever I see people say that I just do the "are you serious hand thing" because that's an excuse. Yall are covering up some shit. Heavy. You don't randomly say "fuck you I wanna fuck your wife" to your boss because he pisses you off randomly. You don't randomly go kick your neighbo'rs dog because they bark at you when you're in the middle of cutting your grass. You don't do that.

That whole "well uh it was random and it was a moment of anger" is just straight bullshit. Come on now. That comes from something else deep inside of you that you need to recognize and admit. It doesn't fly by any means.

Because it seems in this thread that people are against racism (which is good) and it goes against what I see in my daily life.

Any more questions ?

Yes. You're talking about overt racism against you. You asked about covert racism.

I'm sorry you are being victimized by people around you, that's fucked up. I don't understand the impetus behind trying to suss out covert racism in a thread about overt racism and when you yourself are a victim of overt racism.

I think you're overthinking this. Not sure what your agenda is, not sure you even had an agenda, but regardless don't read things that are not there.

I come in peace.

is that new?

also is it true? Can I really insult him? Because I want to.
He was a junior until just a moment ago. I'm pretty sure he's banned now and instead of the normal "banned" tag his post was so stupid it earned him a consolation prize after the banning.
 
It takes so long to get verified on GAF, even if you're using an alt account why blow it on defending fuckin PDP. Like isn't there some more worthwhile horrible shit for you to burn your alt for?

GAF resides at the top rung of the moral ladder. Please pass judgment upon this white supremacist alt right nazi before he can infect more impressionable youth you have sworn to safeguard against language.

What a fuck head. Will wait and see his friends h3h3 admonish him for saying that!!!

Nothing will be done to him they only care for themselves.

H3H3 is a dude that kicks it with iDubbbz so I don't think he cares about his friends using the n-word.

Guys....I think we're all forgetting the biggest issue about gaming journalism these days, I know Pewdiepie said the N word....but what about that one gaming journo who couldn't play Cuphead? I mean...it's worse than hitler.....not saying that hitler was a bad ...or good guy, but at least I think he could dash jump.
