Is he going to learn "the hard way"? He just keeps getting more subscribers.Dude is a known piece of shit so it isn't surprising. He's gonna learn the hard way that you can't have your cake and eat it too.
Also mods, I think this clown would prefer to be perma instead of getting a 2-week ban:
Not a good look for DualShockers.
Basically an idiot complaining he was banned and that people where being impolite to PDP with screenshots.
I wanna know as well.
If this keeps gaining publicity and his name is associated with the kinds of people praising him, I believe so.Is he going to learn "the hard way"? He just keeps getting more subscribers.

YouTuber PewDiePie has more subscribers than anyone else on the network, and some of his rabid fans have released at least two ransomware strains that encrypt hard drives and display a notice that informs victims that a decryption key will be made available only when PewDiePie's account gets 100 million subscribers. One of the ransomware strains also warned victims that if, at any time, the Indian Bollywood channel T-Series gets more subscribers than PewDiePie, the decryption key will not be released.Its author eventually realized the world of trouble he'd get into if any of those victims filed complaints with authorities, and released the ransomware's source code on GitHub, along with a command-line-based decryption tool.
Ben Walker of Dualshockers: "What a ridiculous thread of people. Ashamed to be verified on their platform."
Also seems they got extended to a permaban. I'm gonna take a wild guess it had to do with that tweet of his.This is PewDiePie's fault how? You can keep blaming attacks on anything other what actually starts them but this is a whole other level of what?
Oh I knew about that, was just curious what the tweet was. Thanks anyway,Ben Walker of Dualshockers: "What a ridiculous thread of people. Ashamed to be verified on their platform."
They were banned for this.
Also seems they got extended to a permaban. I'm gonna take a wild guess it had to do with that tweet of his.
yeah, seems like we're well overdueWhy hasn't anyone in the media done a comprehensive exposé on PewDiePie? I can't wait for the day he's off youtube for good, sucks that he brings in so much money they're willing to ignore it.
That one is pretty good.Why hasn't anyone in the media done a comprehensive exposé on PewDiePie? I can't wait for the day he's off youtube for good, sucks that he brings in so much money they're willing to ignore it.
Just saw this on reddit. Wonder if the kid is one of Pewdiepie's fans who think that sharing the footage with Muslims will help "lighten up their mood a bit".
Haven't watched it yet but I can take a wild stab at "It was just a joke brah" and probably be hitting the mark
To be fair I don't think he's ever forgiven except by people who didn't care in the first placeThis isnt even the first time is it? Everytime he comes under fire for being a bigot he makes an apology video and all is forgiven.
I'm sure this time its genuine, I'm sure. 😒

Oh sweet baby jesusSeems like PDP has one more thing he can continue to cowardly tip toe around; his fans making Ransomware (Link to EtcetEra topic):
Remember how it was immediately followed by him saying "fucking nibber" a dozen times?Remember that time he called a guy a "Fucking N*****" because he had a heated moment?
I think there should be a rule that it can't be called an apology video if you blame the media for you getting in trouble.This isnt even the first time is it? Everytime he comes under fire for being a bigot he makes an apology video and all is forgiven.
I'm sure this time its genuine, I'm sure. 😒
The internet was a mistakeSeems like PDP has one more thing he can continue to cowardly tip toe around; his fans making Ransomware (Link to EtcetEra topic):
david duke says those things too.He even says "fuck racists" "fuck white supremacists" "Thats not what I'm about and thats not what this channel is about and its never been about it"
He even says "fuck racists" "fuck white supremacists" "Thats not what I'm about and thats not what this channel is about and its never been about it"
Thats literally actively and openly anti-racists. I tried looking up your claim that David Duke says this, and I couldn't find it anywhere. People continuously move the goal post for pewdipie.david duke says those things too.
denouncing racism is something racists do all the time, it's not enough. he needs to be actively and openly anti-racist, which he won't do because he's racist.
What's your point here?He says in the video "I support getting white supremacy off the platform" and yet people continuously parrot the idea that he will not "take a side"
Oh yeah, I should post PewDiePie's twitter likes here too, right?
if he's not a white supremacist he's very comfortable around them.Thats literally actively and openly anti-racists. I tried looking up your claim that David Duke says this, and I couldn't find it anywhere. People continuously move the goal post for pewdipie.
First he needs to take responsibility for his actions (which he immediately does and admits when he does wrong)
Then its He needs to take responsibility for the bad things his fans do (which he has done numerous times to the point of even paying out of pocket to fix the terrible things a single fan does like the war memorial incident)
Then he needs to take a stand on white supremacy and tell people the channel is not for them (Which he then does and says fuck racists and fuck white supremacists)
Pewdipie is certainly not a perfect dude. But hes not a white supremacists nor does he advocate for it. He does the exact opposite.
Following white supremacists on Twitter, using racist language and anti Semitic "memes" is not the opposite of advocating white supremacists.Thats literally actively and openly anti-racists.

I think it's an okay video. I still don't like PewDiePie, but he acknowledges he did things wrong.
As aeolist & Stop It said above, there's a big gulf between saying something is wrong and actually acting like it's wrong. People are on PDP's ass because he continues to act in a way counter to what he says. If he actually believed his genocide and N-word "jokes" were wrong it would bring about change. But as pointed out earlier in the thread as well as just above this post, PDP continued to follow and support some of the most influential contemporary bigots around today. The very people who spread the ideology of hate that galvanizes racists, violent and otherwise. It's easy to say shit. It costs nothing to actually say you have principles. It's much harder to live like you do.He even says "fuck racists" "fuck white supremacists" "Thats not what I'm about and thats not what this channel is about and its never been about it"
He's made numerous videos on this subject over and over again, which people who don't like him don't even bother to watch because they claim all he will say is "its just a joke bro" which he never does. This has got to be at least the fifth video he's done mentioning hes not a white supremacists because people keeping bringing up 5 years old gaffes that hes admitted were wrong of him.What's your point here?
You appear to be trying to use a video that is several minutes old to negate previous deserved criticism made for years before the video.
This is another example of hearing what you want to hear. He's making the effort RIGHT NOW. This is prob the 5th video by him addressing his claims and him denying white supremacy. But it doesn't matter because thats not what you want to hear.someone with that many nazi fans should be making every effort to drive them away. that he's not doing that speaks volumes to me.
While Kjellberg struggled to keep his eyes off their chests, he "jokingly" called women in the video "stupid Twitch thots," a derogatory term for women that stands for "that ho [whore] over there." Alinity saw a video and retaliated by filing a copyright claim with YouTube.
In his latest video on the subject, uploaded Wednesday, Kjellberg chastised Alinity for filing the claim, and suggested that Alinity somehow deserves the abuse she is getting online for wearing revealing clothes. He shows examples of times when she wore a sheer top and her bra straps showed, or when she played Just Dance in a dress.
"You're just playing games with the shortest skirt ever, that's our fault for looking at it in any sexual way, right?" Kjellberg said in the video. "I know you don't portray yourself to be the smartest person, but I know you're not that dumb to not be aware of what you're doing," he says. "Showing your underwear on screen? That's our fault, right?"
Sunday, Kjellberg retweeted a video of a fan of his saying they were going to report Alinity to the "Canadian immigration control" to his 16 million followers. The implication here is that Alinity got a fraud marriage to establish residency and should be deported, something that goes beyond online harassment and threatens her physical safety.
Korwin-Mikke is a notorious figure in Polish politics, with him having previously been suspended from parliament as a result of sexist comments he made regarding the pay gap between men and women. Speaking in March, he said: "Of course women must earn less than men because they are weaker, they are smaller, they are less intelligent. They must earn less." He later added that there is a "20th century stereotype that women have the same intellectual potential as men," saying that it "must be destroyed because it is not true." He was also suspended in 2015 for calling migrants "human garbage" (via Unian), suspended again for raising his hand in a Nazi salute in protest against a German-led EU transporting ticket (via Politico), and also suggested that Adolf Hitler was not aware of the holocaust during World War II. He has also previously been condemned by his fellow MEPs for stating that the "minimum wage should be destroyed as we would be treating 20 million young Europeans like n******."
PewDiePie, who was the subject of controversy earlier this year following a Wall Street Journal report regarding "anti-Semitic" jokes featured in his videos, appears at the end of the video to discuss his thoughts on the interview with Korwin-Mikke. "The first time I watched this, my initial reaction was 'holy s*** this guy is insane, what the f*** is he saying? He's definitely sexist,'" he said. "But second time I watched it, interpreting all his stumbling and mumbling, I understand what he's trying to say. Like he said many times, he's not saying women should earn less, he's saying they are because of these reasons."
PewDiePie then went on to discuss the gender wage gap. "What they did with the gender gap is they took all men, and all women, and did a median on it and said 'oh okay, women earn this amount less than men in general,'" he said."What they didn't take into account was pretty much anything at all, like women working less hours, women choosing less high-paying jobs and so on." He concluded: "If you're a female watching this, I want you to know that you are not what the media or politicians or people on Twitter try to tell you… or even what I am [trying to tell you]. You're not weak, you are not less privileged, you are strong. I think it's a real unhealthy way of looking at things. What happened to 'I am a woman hear me roar?' It's become 'I am a woman, I earn less than men.'"
Again the proof is in the pudding (don't know if I'm using that right :/ ). I'm more than happy to support PDP if he actually changes but making videos saying the right thing costs him nothing. His actions and reactions in the future will be the actual evidence.He's made numerous videos on this subject over and over again, which people who don't like him don't even bother to watch because they claim all he will say is "its just a joke bro" which he never does. This has got to be at least the fifth video he's done mentioning hes not a white supremacists because people keeping bringing up 5 years old gaffes that hes admitted were wrong of him.
