PDP ends war with T-Series and apologizes as he is down by 1.2 million subs

he just uploaded something saying that he is ending the meme. He also discussed the various bad things that happened in support of this meme with remorse and regret.

The problem is would he have posted the video if he was 1.2 m subs ahead of t-series? The war has been over for a good 3 weeks now.

Anyways, looks like the war and the meme is done.

Dude is a POS, could have stopped this long ago or better yet never started it in the first place. His apology is worth as much as the mouth it came out of.

While I want to say good on him...
It'd be irresponsible to do so. He let it go on for this long, and it helped so many goddamn white nationalists/supremacists masquerade as merely "fighting corporations for independent creators" (as if they'd fight a single corporation from their home country or that PDP is an indie effort any longer) and spread their viewpoints with "sub to PewDiePie" tacked on at the end. So while it's good he did this, he gets no thanks or kudos for it.

I apologise if I sound garbled, I'm just waking up but I feel like my point is getting across anyway so...

Still suprised that it lasted this long. Dude had a crazy public presence for what, 7 months now? Now that the bad publicity started to outweight the good and he has less to gain from the whole thing, it's obvious he'd want to end it.

How much money has he made by starting this shit "meme"? How much is he going to continue to get as a result of it? He isn't sorry about shit.



Fuck him.

Only good way this could have ended was if he condemned the pieces of shit that did horrific shit to promote this. Not to mention the monsters that did the attack in New Zealand.

I see the "it's all just a joke! It's just a meme! Irony, lol!" stuff has spread to mass shootings now.

So what you're saying is PDP's influence had no effect on that terrorist?
Did I say that? Please quote the aprt of my post totally absolving him. Do you believe that the shooter up and decided to commit an atrocity simply to get people to subscribe to PDP, or is it much more likely that he was a disturbed terrorist piece of shit that merely spouted a common meme shared across the internet (and also on alt right shithole sites) before committing an atrocity?
If you think that the asshole wouldn't have done what he did if the Subscribe to PDP meme didn't exist, then I again am completely nonplussed.

To say something played a part is not the same as saying something was the direct cause.

We literally have not had a mass shooting over this shit. If you really believe that a douchebag shooter spouting an internet meme was the actual justification for his actions, I genuinely don't know what to tell you
lol. Well placed username.

No one is saying the shooter went out to kill solely in PDP’s name, but the issue is that he rubs shoulders and wades in the same ‘just jokes bro!’ internet cesspools that churns out fuckers like the shooter, and continues to court and cultivate that crowd with a wink.

Basically insert “Not racist, but #1 with racists” foxnews Simpson meme.

Not gonna pile on him. Seems pretty genuine to me. Good reasons to not react instantly. In such cases it cant be other than damn if you do damn if you dont. No one would want such a disgusting act on his/her name and staying silent must ve been hard but it was for the best.
