They don't even have to condemn pewdiepie. All they have to say is "let's as a community make it clear that we condemn white supremacy and don't want those people subscribing. Easy.
Late stage memes
But remember everyone it's just memes!!! PDP was just having fun with memes!!!
They don't care about pewdiepie so much that they are going to jump into a 2000 post thread with warnings, staff posts, and a long list of bans, just to defend his honor knowing how it's going to end. If that's what they "do" for people they don't even care about, I'd almost be scared to know what they'd do for the people they DO actually care about.
Another one.
Seeing this image fills me with a deep rage. Fuck this bastard. 49 innocent people are dead because of him and he thinks it's a fucking joke.

Yeah... Like, I always agree with people who keep saying "Don't show the guy's face, don't give him publicity" everytime there's a mass shooting but I've never really cared personally before and curiosity always won in the end.
it's just ebic memes bro

It was posted in January. Still doesn't excuse it though.
whats the context?At least he's learned to stay on his script this time!
In case you're confused, this image is from a PewDiePie apology video.
Essentially, he was going on about how the media misrepresenting him by taking his Nazi jokes out of context, so he flips off the camera, puts his finger in his mouth, and then says "see, context."
So thats why every pdp supporter gives the "media is evil" bs
Yep! Which plays right into the hands of the alt-right and their calling of media "fake news". Something else is that PewdiePie also made a video calling out WSJ for their article and called out its writer as well. PDP dog whistled to get his audience to attack the writer, he also had people like Sargon of Akkad in the description of the video giving them a shout out and linking to his channel, thanking him for the material to make his video against WSJ.
He's been around now for roughly 9 years, or at least six years since becoming the most subscribed channel on YouTube. In 2014, his demo was mainly "US teenaggers aged 13 through 18."
The fact that you classified what he has done as "dumb mistakes" is baffling.
what the fuckit's just ebic memes bro

Didn't say they were fun. Again, I said he's made some very dumb mistakes. Mistakes that he's apologized for. Hell, mistakes that I wouldn't blame people for not forgiving after he apologized. But since both of these mistakes he's clearly tried changing and learning from them. Of course, there are going to be idiots on the right who take these jokes literally even though Felix already said they were "jokes."
Doing 100 good things and 1 bad thing doesn't make you a good person by default, this isn't a numbers game.
"dumb mistakes" like promoting deranged racist lunatics like Ben Shapiro, sharing neonazi youtube channels with his massive audience, and shouting racial slurs "by mistake." If he's not a racist, he's a sociopathic nihilist which is arguably much worse.
In context, he has literally interacted, promoted and hosted several alt-right extremists, increasing their following and polluting more people with the exact kind of ideology the shooter had
I never said it was an okay thing?
He's a "shock jock." Says shocking things for the sake of comedy. Which obviously isn't funny to many, including myself, but I understand they're jokes. Ben Shapiro is a damn meme, which is what Pewdiepie's shows are about now. Maybe he is a sociopath. I can't imagine what having such a massive audience could do to one's mind. He's just stupid IMO. I just don't believe he's racist, nor do I think he should be blamed for this. I 100% doubt the murderer would have other plans had Pewdiepie not existed in the YouTube space.
The terrorist said "Subscribe to PewDiePie!" before killing so many innocent people. PewDiePie has a history with anti-semitism and giving some vile monsters like Ben Sharpiro airtime on his show. Thus introducing people to these vile monsters who wish for these acts of genocide.
