Well, it's mostly a mix of several repeated offenses, and that the way it came out of his mouth sounded like if he used it on a common basis. And I don't think I need to explain why you should never use the n word

TIL the Anti-Defamation League is antisemitic and Islamophobic, apparently?
When Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar was attacked in March for "invoking the anti-Semitic trope of 'dual loyalty'" in her criticisms of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), the Anti-Defamation League (ADL)—a Jewish non-govermental organization based in the United States, whose stated mission is "to stop the defamation of the Jewish people, and to secure justice and fair treatment to all"—was among the first to call on Congressional leaders to "take immediate action" against her.

Not really anti-Semitic, but anti-Arab and dedicated to further subjugating and removing the Palestinian population from Israel. They have conducted surveillance on communities of color and basically exist as a propaganda arm of the right wing of Israel's government. They have also been condemned by antizionist Jewish organizations such as IJAN.TIL the Anti-Defamation League is antisemitic and Islamophobic, apparently?
I believe it is possible, but after multiple incidents with Pewdiepie, I'm not sure it will ever happen. This is a first good step, but it's still only a step.I will preface this - idgaf about pewdiepie, this is more about the idea of people changing.
Do you think it is not possible for people to change how they act or react, how they perceive a situation, person, class of people, etc?
I learned from resetera that if you done anything bad in your life it's impossible to redeem yourself.
Yes, if you are in any way for Palestinian rights, there is no way in hell you would ever stand okay for the ADL. They are basically Israel propaganda in the states. I am sure they do some good work too, just saying there are two sides to that conflict and the ADL has been completely ridiculous in the past on multiple occasions with their fear mongering, racism, et cetera. That should never be overlooked by anyone period just because this guy gives a company a bunch of cash to say SORRY.Not really anti-Semitic, but anti-Arab and dedicated to further subjugating and removing the Palestinian population from Israel.

I don't see any apology here. Just whining about the MSM and trying to paint himself as forgiving people who wronged him.

And? Nothing in what he said is an apology or acknowledges that he did anything wrong.
.DoubtsIf he goes through with it, it would be a hell of a start to redemption
Yes
But honestly, pewdiepie isn't going to be that person.
And if by a holy miracle he does change, no one's obligated to forgive him for his past actions.
So there's no reason to bring this up in the first place.
Could have picked a much better organization. ADL promotes apartheid, white supremacy, and islamophobia on the regular. The alt-right should feel right at home with them.
Exactly.He's still not admitting he did anything wrong. "My clash with the MSM was manipulated into a tool of destruction". Uh-huh.
what other stuffDon't bother Felix, you said a bad word that one time and resetera will never forget. We sure forget about other bad stuff very quickly though, I wonder why.
This is a good thing, not matter how you look at it.
There are absolutely zero shades of grey on Era, and it is easily one of the worst things about this forum that I otherwise love.I learned from resetera that if you done anything bad in your life it's impossible to redeem yourself.
ADL is literally an anti-bigotry league. Him donating to them indicates he is willing to use his "brand" to stand against bigotry, no matter what he did in the past.
People on Era need to learn that a person is not worth one act, and one act alone. PDP is a shithead, and has acted like one in the past. That doesn't mean he can't try to change, or that he can't put himself on a path to redemption. He can, and hopefully he goes through with it. We should be hoping for that, for him as a person to be redeemed, and him as a public figure to be making a stand for the right thing, rather than continuing to treat him with suspicion when he is literally putting his money where his mouth is for the right thing. I understand being wary, so am I. But don't be so quick to dismiss the possibility of someone growing and getting better with time. Too many people on Era, most people on Era, fail to account for that, in their haste to "cancel".
Please, take this to its logical conclusion. What other bad stuff does "the resetera collective" forget very quickly and why?Don't bother Felix, you said a bad word that one time and resetera will never forget. We sure forget about other bad stuff very quickly though, I wonder why.
Nothing personal to him, but seen folks go for this pop before, then a year later the org is still waiting for the money.
