I am curious how individuals here would define "nigger". There would seem to be a semantic disconnect between sides. The way it was used in the video is inoffensive in relation to the definition I attribute the word.

well aside from my apathy for feeling...ANYTHING for Pewdiepie one other YouTube brought up a valid point that his behavior has negative consequences for the rest of youtube. we already have the Ad-pocalypse going on thanks to him and no doubt we'll see even more fall out after this. so woo now I have even more reason to hate Felix, yeah!
There is alot more history behind nigger. Many white people aren't even offended by cracker or honkey. Your other questions are strawmans, so nothing to add. And yea there is a difference between nigger and nigga. When white people use nigga, they do receive less backlash, than if they were to use nigger.
Now nobody, including black people should use any form of this word, but it is what it is.
The funny part is that :P again the most outraged people are the rich white Americans that poverty and racism have seen on tv.
That was a really good video by Jimqusition. No matter how you feel about Pewdiepie he is the face of youtube being their biggest star and his stupid antics, no matter if you love them, hate them or indifferent, is going to hurt all the other youtubers.
Here is the video if you want to watch it
Lol at people so invested in internet drama
Some guy the average person on the street doesn't know said a bad word online.
Oh the horror. The world is crashing down on us.
No one is a racist unless you can directly prove it. You can't accuse someone of having the wrong thoughts, and if you're owning up to racism; you probably aren't a racist at all. You're more likely a brainwashed low testosterone male. I'm not trying to be insulting here at all, in fact I'm working on it for my thesis, there does seem to be a huge correlation between testosterone count and taking conciliatory and self deprecating stances amongst college aged males.
Felix isn't a racist, but you have to understand that realistically, the group of people who think he is a racist, will only exist in their echo chamber. No one in the mainstream is going to listen to people with extremist views, especially since calling someone a racist nowadays has virtually no meaning.
Calling Pewdiepie a racist is if anything an endorsement of him not being politically correct, since these attacks on him he has only become more popular after all. All the social power that the word 'racist' held was expended in the general election where it was overused to the point that everyone become desensitised.
Call Felix whatever you want but let me know when he actually causes tangible harm to someone on the grounds of ethnicity. Until then, kindly crawl back into whatever hole you came from.
Why do you guys encourage loser mentality. Felix is responsible for these things? YouTube is responsible.
It's YouTube that chooses to respond to these things in the way it does. The fact that Felix's subscriber count goes up when these things happen is proof that YouTube doesn't actually need to take any action.
Honestly it actually disgusts me that you guys sit here blaming Pewds when YouTube are the ones drunk on power implementing all these horrible things. And if major youtubers don't like it they should band together and find a new platform.
Ya I get that I meant more as a broad open to the thread go and see the video.

Not really when advertisers take their money from youtube, youtube will react in kind by cracking down on the creators. Youtube like Jim says in his video is in a sort of limbo right now where they aren't controlled by the government like normal media is. Yet if guys like Pewdiepie, with the majority of his fan base being kids, continue to do stupid shit, even taken out of context, it will push the government to act and possibly wrangle control over youtube like normal media.
Because hes part of the problem. Many youtubers have moved over to Twitch and/or added a Patreon to fund there channels due to the Adpocalypse. While Felix isn't 100% responsible for advertisers withdrawing from Youtube he doesn't help it ether.
He is called King of Youtube for a reason and when shit like this happens (or the fiver shit) that reflects and damages to everyone who uses Youtube. You may not like it but that's the fact's of the matter.
