Disney, YouTube Cut Ties With PewDiePie, Top YouTube Submitter, Over Anti-Semitic Videos (techcrunch.com)
jo7hs2 writes: Disney's Maker Studios has cut ties PewDiePie, the YouTube submitter with 53 million subscribers, over anti-Semitic clips the submitter released earlier in the year. The clips, three videos published in January, have since been removed from the channel. According to TechCrunch, "They included one skit in which [Felix Kjellberg, PewDiePie's real name] paid a Sri Lanka-based group of men to hold up a sign that read 'Death to All Jews,' while another featured a clip of a man dressed as Jesus saying that 'Hitler did absolutely nothing wrong.' Kjellberg used freelance job finding site Fiverr for both clips. He argued that he wasn't serious with either and instead wanted to show the things people will do for money." A spokesperson for Maker Studios, which was acquired by Disney in 2014, told the Wall Street Journal, "Although Felix has created a following by being provocative and irreverent, he clearly went too far in this case and the resulting videos are inappropriate." Writing on his Tumblr blog, Kjellberg said the purpose of the examples was "to show how crazy the modern world is, specifically some of the services available online." He continued, "I picked something that seemed absurd to me -- That people on Fiverr would say anything for 5 dollars. I think it's important to say something and I want to make one thing clear: I am in no way supporting any kind of hateful attitudes."
UPDATE 2/14/17: YouTube has also cut ties with Kjellberg. A YouTube representative confirmed to Business Insider that the company has canceled its YouTube Red original show starring Kjellberg. Business Insider reports: "Kjellberg's show, 'Scare PewDiePie,' was a YouTube original accessible through the company's subscription service, YouTube Red. The show was about to premiere its second season. YouTube is also removing Kjellberg from Google's preferred advertising program, which helps the platform's most popular personalities attract bigger advertisers."

Slashdot: "Celebrity" gossip. Stuff that doesn't matter.
Who. Fucking. Cares? What is a PewDiePie? This is news?
'm having a hard time figuring out whether it was the author, of one of our less literate editors, though...
"I do not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
That's what the media keeps telling me
I'd say there's a fair chance Mr. Kjellberg *is* Jewish, which would make his Anti-Semetic about as serious as Sasha Cohen's "Borat" character. Either way, it's not a good match for Disney, so how is this news?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have backups to corrupt.
pewdiepie shaved his ass and sent the hair off so someone could bake a cake ..and for valentine's day video had humping penis's for 5 mins ...100s of video along same lines ...and disney didn't care ....but the fiver video was the (((last straw))) ...lol hypocrites
[He] wanted to show the things people will do for money.
It worked better than he expected. Much better.
He actually exposed the hypocrisy of the loony-left media-industrial propaganda complex and the things they will do for money.
The media-industrial complex has been accused to be ignorant as to why it lost belly-up in Nov 2016. The reality is that there is no such ignorance. Instead it chooses to be the bitch of the loony hyperliberal special interest which actively stifles anything not conforming to its slave ideology.
like who eva this person is - did
This might just be the stupidest story ever to be posted on this site. I'm going to have to look into better ways of wasting my time on the internet.
And nothing of value was lost. I don't get the adulation around this guy. Get a life, people.
"I am in no way supporting any kind of hateful attitudes." Yeah, right. Apart from "paying a Sri Lanka-based group of men to hold up a sign that read 'Death to All Jews,' while another featured a clip of a man dressed as Jesus saying that 'Hitler did absolutely nothing wrong.'
"PewDiePie argued that he wasn't serious with either and instead wanted to show the things people will do for money."
Oh I think he made that point brilliantly... about himself.
PS. What the fuck is going on at Slashdot? The banner ads today are so fucking huge I need a bigger monitor. Did they go "Not enough people are clicking on banner ads for shit they don't want. They mustn't be able to see them. Lets make them even bigger." No guys, they're shit we don't want. I mean, selling "Learn to Code" bundles on Slashdot is like trying to sell ice to eskimos.
Oy vey goyim shut it down!

It's funny how one of these words has a positive connotation, and the other one a negative. This, despite the fact that opposing groups might apply each term to the same content. All inappropriate means in a context where one is praising someone for irreverence is that the irreverence was applied to a preferred group.
I am reminded of Isaac Hayes's objection to South Park's irreverence toward Scientology.
Failing company? Forbes: "Net income in the quarter rose 32% to $2.88 billion, or $1.73 per share. Excluding items, earnings came in at $1.63 per share, far ahead of analyst estimates of $1.45 per share. Revenue soared 14% to $15.24 billion, also well above analyst estimates of $14.75 billion."
And your mocking of the holocaust? I only hope one day you and all you love are on the receiving end.
Apparently this PewDie bro used to make money making Rape jokes videos, but apparently Maker Studios (Disney) was okay with that because of "money".
Now, as a "joke", this bro paid random people to $5 (on fiver) to record themselves holding antisemitic signs and felt remorse...
So, by using fiver to point out that anyone will do anything for money, but probably later regret it, he pointed out to Disney their course of action...
I just can't feel sorry for the bro ;^)
Two thoughts. When you cater to whims of the easily offended, they do not become less offended, they find more things to be offended about.
Y'all easily offended just clean up your little corner of the room, arranging everything meticulously and making it perfect and pure - while other people elect the people you like the least.
Now I'm going to go to Youtube and watch some Bill Maher and Louis CK.
The shepherds did so well protecting the flock that the sheep no longer believed that wolves existed.
Crusades.
Checkmate.
It little behooves the best of us to comment on the rest of us.
Interesting you should bring that up.
I'm curious. What do you think muslims were doing around the time of the Crusades?
How about coming with an effective method to ban those who spew hate speech on /. ? This site is pretty much irrelevant since being overrun by bigoted twats, IMHO.
Wasn't Walt Disney, the founder of the Disney company, a renowned anti-semite and booster of Nazism?
(N/T)
Defending their lands from crusaders.
While I care not for the Pewd, he is their biggest cash cow on youtube and they just sacked him for this.
I'm not sure if Disney/Maker Studio know what they are doing or if they are just plain dumb.
I cut ties with Disney after they outsourced their IT department.
News at 11.
Just in case anyone was wondering, you can find the video in question here. I've skipped to the relevant part, but the whole video is him going WTF over just what people will do for a few bucks on Fiverr:
https://youtu.be/KtxXKezbQ9w?t=660
"I am sorry. I didn't think they would actually do it."
"I don't feel too proud of this, I'm not going to lie."
>What do you think muslims were doing around the time of the Crusades?
Well, IIRC, the first crusade had mostly Christians killed, and mostly by Christians if you're scoring it that way.
At the time of the Crusades, were the Muslims fighting amongst themselves and spreading their religion at the point of a sword? Yes.
At the time of the Crusades, were the Christians fighting amongst themselves and spreading their religion at the point of a sword? Yes.
Is 'tu quoque" a legitimate form of debate? No.
I human nature the same (and largely predictable) across all known cultural, religious, and economic systems? Yes.
Check.
Grow up. If life were that simple, we'd have figured it out long ago.
Love is the answer: GIVING it. That is the basic message of humane philosophy and most religions.
So, you see, it really IS simple. Otherwise angry peckerheads like you get us all caught in this cycle of violence and you tear up all the beans we planted to try and feed us this winter (analogy, OK?).
Checkmate.

An Old Hippie
PS but Momma didn't raise a fool: learn how to shoot, also how to know reality from a "snipe hunt" and a snake from a saint.
" What do you think Muslims were doing around the time of the Crusades?"
He wouldn't know and if he did he would just ignore anything that would contradict his world view.
And people who think the holocaust is just ancient history and has no bearing on today's world completely miss the point.
The number of people killed in the camps was large but many more died across the world during WW2. The targeted extermination of a particular racial group was terrible but that wasn't the first time that type of thing happened and it wasn't the last either. The reason the holocaust needs to be remembered is because it was not a bunch a savages running around with machetes or a bunch of 7th Century and civilized loving maniacs with too much time on their hands.doing the killing. At the time Germany was one of the most modern countries in the world. The German Arts, Engineering, and Sciences were second to none at the time. This enlightened and civilized country purposely designed a factories for the express purpose of killing the most people in the shortest amount of time. Their scientists developed the gas used to kill the people. Their logistic and accounting staff managed the delivery and supply lines needed to support killing the most people in the shortest amount of time. They found loading up the cattle cars with people and dropping them off and then loading the same train with war material to be delivered were needed. A lot of munition and other manufacturing used to supply the military were located near the concentration camps to take advantage of the slave labor. The lesson of the holocaust is that it could happen again no matter how civilized we think we are.
Do elaborate on how they became "their lands."

Folks, extremism is extremism and is not a virtue; and moderation and considered judgement is. It is a rare thing to find anything "always" or "never".

Those loser Disney snowflakes are upset with a YouTuber just for making a few Holocaust jokes. They have no sense of humor. I mean, come on, killing Jews is hilarious. They're a failing company with no fans or ratings, and continue to try to push non-white cartoon characters down our throats. Not Good! #MAGA
Well, I don't know about all that, but Disney's Pocahantas was a BABE. Pissed my GF right off when I said that out loud.
If the youtubers people like (not me) are banned, a few million will enrage enough to ditch the google website.
This guy had 53 million followers, let's hope he takes his business elsewhere. The clearer the "censorship" gets the better. (Not real censorship in this case, but behavior manipulation).
Fuck you Slashdot. "Celebrity" gossip? Really? And I use the word celebrity very loosely. Piece of shit website. I guess dice fucked the life out of this corpse before pulling out. I guess this is what one should expect when you visit the grave of a formerly great website. And lastly fuck that faggot doodypie. Should curb stomp that little shit. Talk about fucking useless talents. On second thought, this turd has no talent. Hope he dies a painful death before he pollutes the gene pool.
Allah gave them the world. Where is a place that isn't their land?
There is a button somewhere on every video that you can click on that says not interested. Do that enough and they will stop showing up. For that matter I click the subscribe button on just about any fool that comments on videos I like regardless of whether they have any intention of making videos and am probably technically subscribed to PewDiePie, but his videos never show up as recommendations for me because I actually manage my blinking YouTube situation.
Actually although this is meant to be funny it is not and neither was what Pewdiepie did either. I understand that for people under the age of thirty "Ironic" means that you can say anything. There are still a few older people around who are too square for that daddy o. There are some things that happened in the second world war that scared the fucking shit out of most of the planet when they found out what had been going on. You see the nice German people who are currently having the piss taken out of them because they are taking hundreds of thousands of dark skinned Muslims as refugees. The nice German people took 6 million Jews, Gypsys, Black people, Homosexuals and gassed them to death because they reclassified them as dangerous animals. Now I am not saying that being ironic makes you a Nazi death camp commander but you do not have any sensitivity to the slippery slope that the German people fell down. In other words you appear to be disrespectful to the idea that there are some ideas that are too horrible to contemplate even as a joke. Unfortunately as you have no idea what it is that you have done wrong it is apparent that the world is ready once again for horrible things to be done. It is no coincidence that Nationalism and hatred of foreigners is once again popular. The lessons of the Holocaust have been forgotten and the world is ready once again for appalling crimes against humanity So no, jokes about the Holocaust are never funny, not even ironic ones.
Facts are history now plebs have politics for religion on social media.
Here's a response from one of his friends who goes over the matter in detail.
He tried to figure out what people would do for a few bucks on Fiverr and was dumbstruck by the fact that people would even do such things. The people drumming up these stories are creating outrage to clickbait people because they don't have real news.
Comedy = Tragedy + Time.
Irony wasn't invented by people under thirty. I don't know if you've ever seen The Producers or Charlie Chaplin's The Dictator, but it's possible to lampoon something and be critical of it. By using #MAGA, I thought it would be clear enough that I was making fun of comments - real comments - that are seen every day online from members of the alt-right like Stormfront, the KKK and other Trump supporters. And are too often seen right here on Slashdot.
I'm sorry if I offended you, coastwalker, I didn't mean to. I have family members who died fighting Nazis and I understand that there is a resurgence of nazism today. I make fun because it's too late in the evening for me to go out and punch some Nazis, which is the appropriate response from anyone who values civil society and freedom. Plus, here in Houston, Nazis don't generally advertise themselves because there are still enough armed WWII vets that some angry nonagenarian might ventilate their asses.
You are welcome on my lawn.
I make fun because it's too late in the evening for me to go out and punch some Nazis, which is the appropriate response from anyone who values civil society and freedom.
The problem is, you define "Nazi" as 'anyone to the right of CNN'.
Your day is coming.
Get a load of this jackoff. He says I'm unfairly calling him a nazi and then says the most nazi thing imaginable.
Your day has passed. Approximately September 2, 1945.
You are welcome on my lawn.
That's a good point, actually. There were even Jews who worked with Nazis, helping to seize the possessions of the other Jews for the Nazis while pretending not to be Jewish.
If you do something that my business finds distasteful, I'm free to fire your ass. Isn't this exactly the freedom from government restrictions on how I choose to run my business that the right wants?
“Common sense is not so common.” — Voltaire
As a father, I've had the displeasure of having PewDiePie as a regular member of my house. For example, me, ny son, my daughter and my niece were walking in Manhattan, which is in itself unlikely to happen as they live in Florida and we live in Norway. But we were on vacation with one another and my son and I were joking with each other and I said "You suck" and the two girls who see each other every second or third year simultaneously say "You swallow" which horrified me but apparently was a great bonding experience for the girls who immediately giggled, compared notes and came to the realization they're both primarily educated by PewDiePie.
I have been horrified and offended by PewDiePie before. Let me also say that as a recovering Jew, I lived growing up surrounded by family who were escapees, survivors, etc... of the holocaust. What I found is simple, if a Jew were to do something as stupid as what PewDiePie did, it would be distasteful irony, if anyone else did, it would be antisemitic.
Now, the Germans didn't systematically destroy 6 millions Jews and Gypsies and Black people. They systematically destroyed 6 million Jews, 5 million Gypsies and I have no idea about the black people, by I'd imagine the number would be horrifying as well. If you're going to be an SJW, you have to try and be at least a little close to right.
Let's settle some things... was Hitler anti-Jew (Antisemitic requires that the person is a semite. I challenge any European Jew to prove they are actually a semite), yes he was. Was he trying to eliminate Jews, by his own words and hand, he was. But only a filthy and disgusting person would call the holocaust the "Jewish Holocaust" because he was a pretty equal opportunity hater. He wanted to kill everyone that was easy to target. Jews, Gypsies and Blacks all have something in common, they are easy to find, they are clearly different than other people (at least visually) and it's really easy to convince massive numbers of people they are the cause of their problems.
Wanna see something horrifying, look at how easily Trump is manipulating people to get his "Great Wall of Trump" build so he'll accomplish immortality. He is using the same sort of gifts and rhetoric that Hitler used. He'll give anyone anything they want so long as they let him build that wall. He'll tell us all "we're better than those dark skinned Mohammad lovers are... they're trying to kill us.. those Mexicans want to take your jobs, your homes and your daughters, let me build that wall!!!!"
Now, here's the thing... PewDiePie is a moron. He has made himself rich and famous by being a one man Jack-Ass Online show. His audience is a massive number of young and impressionable children and what has he now taught them? He taught them that it's a sick world where people would be willing to hold such horrible signs for $5. He showed that people would be willing to sell their souls for $5.
It's disgusting in my opinion that children should learn something so terrible at such a young age. What he did taught first world children about how bad life is for some people that $5 is the price of their conscience. He showed that people could be easily bought or manipulated for almost nothing. I'm 100% sure that the people holding those signs didn't believe in them, I am also pretty sure that the guy in Sri Lanka was more concerned about how long he could live on that $5. I don't think he knows or cares about who Hitler was. But I also know that he can be bought for $5.
Dude, I think what he did was a service. I think that out of all the stupid shit he's said and done, he's actually done something right for once. I think he demonstrated outright how easy it is to convince people "Hitler Good, Jew Bad". He showed that a person in that type of position will go where he/she believes the food is. It takes very very little to convince people to dispose of the last good thing left in their hearts when there's nothing left in their stomachs.
What could you ask a man/women do for $10 or a promise of $5
Looks like the PR people at Youtube and Disney can't take a joke. Why are the social media companies falling into this PC morass? Twitter with a life-ban of Milo, Youtube with this, Facebook just about every other week, etc. It's humor, it's not hate speech.
Looking at a timeline, first thing Muslims did after Moho came up with his religion...was invade Spain in 711 AD.
It takes someone with the genius of Chaplin to make a joke about thugs rounding up Jews and hanging them in the street and have it reflect only on the thugs so actually work as a joke. These people are not Chaplin. These people are making fun of the victims and not the perpetrators, like all that "black-face" comedy everyone wants to forget.
If you didn't already know as an adult you haven't been paying much attention.
However kids on the other hand, do you really want them to know that people will do all kinds of disgusting things for money while they are still too young to know they shouldn't exploit that power?
You mean people like Albert Einstein who was very active in using his celebrity to oppose Hitler? What you suggested WAS tried but it did not work. That is part of the horror. So many saw it coming.
There is an interesting Anime, "Eden of the East", that explores that concept. Some people are given phones linked to an account valued at millions and attempt to influence the destiny of a country by giving orders that expend amounts of that account.
What could you ask a man/women do for $10 or a promise of $5 a day. What if you established a trust fund for their child that paid $5 a day for 40 years, could you convince someone to commit suicide on camera? What would it cost to make one of those people hurt or kill someone? If I offered them $5 a day, would they hurt a friend or so .....
So get off your high horse and use the gray lump between your ears to better understand what we have seen. If the Jews (my family) would have used the gray shit between their ears, they probably could have stopped the holocaust before it started. Instead they behaved all huffy and pissy like you. If you believe what he did wasn't a joke, fine. i agree. It was not a joke, but in the spirit which it was done, we learned something very important and if you're gonna be a SJW, then at least stop being a f-ing stupid one!
I think the point that most people are making is that he could have come up with a better way of proving his point. All he had to do was use a different and less insulting and less racist way of doing it. It's my understanding that he chose the meme and that is what he is being judged on.
Does he have a valid point that people are in situations where they will do just about anything for a dollar just to survive? Yes. But we know that this is a sad truth, it's nothing new. There are other ways to draw attention to these types of causes, including starting up a charity or asking for donations for an existing one. He had the followers and could have done a lot of good. Imagine if your children could learn how to get involved in helping others half way around the world...
Instead, he chose a toxic message as part of his "comedy" and it overrides any good point he was trying to make.
The problem is that every time I give love they call the police :(

I think there's something to the theory that YT would rather have a yes-man on top.
Pretty good analysis by Sargon:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Before the internet (and, ironically, Youtube itself) this kind of smear campaign would have worked without a hitch, and I'm sure it galls the MSM that he has a platform to respond at all.
I'm sure you think that there is some special meaning in how advanced Germany was, but the Roman empire was the most advanced when it was a killing machine.
So your lesson is that people are capable of terrible things, checks and balances are good in a government situation, and the protection of completely inalienable human rights (which we do not have in most of the world, and which are under constant attack from both left and right) is the most important thing anyone can support.
The lesson of the holocaust is that it will happen again. Everyone who continues to support their political parties through thick and thin - when left wing politicians ignore the people on immigration, when right wing presidents condone torture etc. - are to blame.
Context is everything.
Nice way of rationalizing a patently stupid "ironic" post. Maybe you should put it as a video on Youtube, this kind of stuff is very popular there.
Why is something only offensive if it makes fun of Jews? Anti-semitic? Whatever.
Ever watch South Park? It is FULL of "anti-semitism"!
Oh wait - South Park was created by Jews so it is not subject to the same censorship as the rest of the goyim's media.
Fucking hell.
There have been several recent shows that cast a Hitler, who secretly survived, as a misunderstood hipster old man. I find it highly offensive.

"I am in no way supporting any kind of hateful attitudes."
Yes, yes you are. You paid people to say and do those things.
They didn't like the message so they killed the messenger....
But but but in Sweden anti-Semitic is political correct.
"Swedish Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom was ranked eighth by Simon Wiesenthal Center, for worrying about terrorists and not their victims “Commenting on the violence in Israel of knife-wielding Palestinian terrorists, and measures taken by Israeli police in their wake during the so-called ‘Knifing Intifada’, Wallstrom, called for an investigation into what she called ‘extra-judicial killings’ by Israeli police,” she was quoted as saying."
Now that's irony!
You find out who your master is when you learn who you cannot criticize or ridicule.
You could try using the three-generation rule that Disney convinced the Congress to enact into law: Until 70 years after the death of the last surviving Holocaust survivor, it's too soon.
i *&^%*^%& HATE this guy. He acts like an unsupervised 12year old whoes come off his medication and I fail to see any appeal. This winning loser is a prime example of flop to fame as a direct result of everything that is wrong with social media, advertising revenue and an entire generation of personality void Ike Broflovski's.
So no, jokes about the Holocaust are never funny, not even ironic ones.
How many Jews can you fit in a car? 55. 5 On seats, 50 in the ashtray.
The Muslims that call for the deaths of all non-Muslims are often regarded by the West as terrorists, and liable to get drone-striked. That's hardly condoning that ideology.
You see the nice German people who are currently having the piss taken out of them because they are taking hundreds of thousands of dark skinned Muslims as refugees. The nice German people took 6 million Jews, Gypsys, Black people, Homosexuals and gassed them to death because they reclassified them as dangerous animals.
It's not the same Germans, though. Do the teenage German girls in cologne deserve to be raped by Muslims because of her grandparents were Nazis? Or perhaps didn't even support the party and were simply Nazi-adjacent? And when will the guilt be absolved? Will her children be allowed to express their own interest without Nazi guilt? Their children? When?
I don't know where this concept of racial guilt comes from (and always while denying racial pride). I'm Catholic, funny, when I go to confession, my priest never asks me to confess my father's sins.
We don't have a state-run media we have a media-run state.
Could I buy an Anti-Trump rally?
Yes, actually. The anti-Trump demonstrations are organized by paid political activists. Moveon.org, BLM, Open Society...an awful lot of these funded by George Soros, who happens to have been a Jew who collaborated with the Nazis to turn in other Jews when he was a child. The organizers are paid, and a not insignificant number of the actual protestors are paid, too, about $25 via craigslist. When they rioted in Chicago and news crews interviewed them they didn't even know what they were "protesting."
It's very concerning, because essentially what you have is the terror wing of the state. No, the government can't beat up political opposition. And it would be unseemly for the Democratic party to beat up political opposition. But when you have the billionaires who fund the Democratic party that was in power at the time also funding organizations that beat up the political opposition to the Democratic party...what the hell is the difference?
We don't have a state-run media we have a media-run state.
I was with you until you tried to slip Trump in there. Have you forgotten, there are VIDEOS all over the internet from CNN, NBC, etc where Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, AND Obama all proudly talk about shutting down borders? In fact in the case of the Clintons they used the exact same words... "Build a wall". You've diminished the rest of your otherwise insightful post with hyperbole.
"Volkswagen" not "car".
Come on, get it right!
...is not to put your business critical infrastructure in a place where a third party has the power to unilaterally cut off access to it.
An operation the size of PewDiePie should have their own video distribution system so that YouTube can't just cut them off from their users.
As a father, I've had the displeasure of having PewDiePie as a regular member of my house. For example, me, ny son, my daughter and my niece were walking in Manhattan, which is in itself unlikely to happen as they live in Florida and we live in Norway. But we were on vacation with one another and my son and I were joking with each other and I said "You suck" and the two girls who see each other every second or third year simultaneously say "You swallow" which horrified me but apparently was a great bonding experience for the girls who immediately giggled, compared notes and came to the realization they're both primarily educated by PewDiePie.
And, when I was growing up, I would get punished for saying "you suck" and they thought of one of my parents saying that at that time is crazy to me. And, I'm a millennial. They viewed "you suck" like you view "you swallow." They are nearly identically sexual; you've just become desensitized to "you suck" and many other blowjob euphemisms (like hoover or blow) for not being very good at something (strange slang indeed). Like it or not, the world keeps changing. Looks like we'll all be saying "you swallow" in mixed company in 20 years.
Gtfo the way normies, real meme's are being created by real people here.
a not insignificant number of the actual protestors are paid, too, about $25 via craigslist,
Care to show some actual examples of said ads with people answering them?
I marched in a local Women's March. No one I knew was being paid, or had been approached about being paid. I certainly wasn't. There were thousands of people there. There was ZERO indication of anyone paying for protests. Instead, you have a diverse group of people with individual concerns(ranging from pro-choice beliefs to local Native American tribes showing solidarity with the pipeline protesters, and pretty much everything in between). No one was confused about their message. No one was rioting, either. But I suppose people protesting against Republican policies doesn't fit the "Trump gets mandate from American People" meme.
All that is necessary for the triumph of good is that evil men do nothing.
Guess what though, that "toxic" message drew how many visitors, how much "outrage".
It drew so much attention that people everywhere are talking about it all day long.
If he'd done something that people would have found "less distasteful" or "less reprehensible", people wouldn't be talking about it.
We've made his point for him.
Guess what folks, people are evil, petty and ignorant. By people, I mean large numbers of homo-sapiens, congregated together where the "group-mind" takes over and is only capable of anything when outraged.
If you want to be outraged, rage against Disney for exploiting young, pre-adult females in their shows to attract not only kid viewership, but young-adult and adult male/female followers because of how "cute" the actors are, or how outrageously they are attired in the shows.
This is a lot of bullshit. He was making a joke, it's very obvious. He wasn't espousing racist beliefs. Youtube and Disney took the clips out of context. Watch this video about the ordeal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLNSiFrS3n4
This also happened to another streaming personality, Destiny. He was having a debate about racism (he's against it), and said something along the lines of "If you're argument is 'n*ggers are too dumb to do X, Y and Z, then blah blah'. Speaking in the 3rd person; speaking as the very racists he's combating. I guess the N word is to controversial to say in any context, he was banned from Twitch.
And now I'm having trouble posting this because of the lameness filter! I can't say the N word here for the same reason! Jesus fuck! Yes I'm trying to say the full N word, no I'm not a racist, I'm sorry if you're offended, but fuck you for changing my speech.
The Bible preceded Mohammad and God created the Earth for Jews.

The Qur'an is a Jewish Book

You are dismissed.
