Leal posted:Wow, he ran his mouth so much that machinima gave him das boot. I wonder if any other partner companies would actually want him? He was actually going to way back when, before he partnered with machinima. That fell through though because he got booted off blip for making extremely anti Semitic jokes.

Kinda feeling bad for DSP. He did bring this to himself though and he is a toxic person. But it doesn't feel good to see someone lose his livelyhood

If it makes you feel better pretend that he put the same effort and attitude into making video game entertainment and place him as a grocery store cashier instead of a cubicle worker or literally any other job. He had all the time in the world to curb his attitude and demeanor and obviously felt no need to do so whatsoever despite massive negative results.

I'm baffled that any group would want him, he was never good and his atrocity tourism value has tanked a lot by this point and he's deservedly just falling the hell apart. "Oh boy, time to get in on this gold mine!"

1700 people watched DSP on stream today beg for his viewers to contact Youtube partnerships on his behalf, explain that he can't get a job because his girlfriend needs their leased BMW and he has a bad back, and blame his haters for sabotaging his potential prospects. That's 5 times more than regularly watch his gameplay streams, to put the train wreck value into perspective.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwk1DogcPmU This is hilarious. Never thought I'd say this, but good for PewDiePie. They tried to cut and paste things from his videos to make him appear as if he's an anti-Semite, and full on Nazi endorser by taking poo poo out of context. The fact that he's playing off that poo poo, and poking fun at the people/organizations doing that, is hilarious. They can't stand it, and it's loving great.

Heard "I think there's gonna be" and closed. Here's hoping that half a second of his stupid rear end in a top hat face doesn't poison my recommendations for too long. Also the guy's still poo poo, I'd say good for him if he quit.

I mean, he apologized for his behavior (despite defending himself) and protested that the fiverr guys shouldn't get attention/get in trouble because of what he did because he recognizes that he's the one who paid them to do it. But as it turns out, people don't really care about that because holding a pitchfork and torch is much more fun!

I watched like, what, 5 minutes into it before I got tired of his whining about how WSJ interviewed him and only talked about how much money he was making  , and how oppressed he feels by the media that hates Youtube creators.Newsflash: traditional actors and producers and directors etc literally have aisles near the register dedicated to tabloids paparazzying the poo poo out of their lives and spreading unfounded conspiracy theories about them, they wish they had it this easy. Grow the gently caress up.

Ha, he got the Fiverr guys to do that at the end. Nice touch. Yardbomb, hell, I don't care for PewDiePie's content either, but that doesn't change the fact that WSJ, and other little rinky-dink outlets and people actively tried to screw him over by misrepresenting what was actually going on. The overall message that was being pushed out was that, yes, PewDiePie is an anti-Semite because he made that "joke". Which is why they reached for all those straws to connect him with neo-nazis and push the thought that yeah, he supported poo poo like that. (Can't count the number of articles, and just sheer online posts referencing that the Daily Stormer had renamed itself to the #1 PewDiePie fansite.). That is EXACTLY the image they wanted to get across. Of course, now that the DS renamed itself to the #1 WSJ fansite, it's pretty funny how that isn't being mentioned near as much.). So think what you want about the guy and his content, personally I don't like the Let's Plays and reviews or whatever he's drifted towards, doesn't change that all this is just a massive hit piece designed to gently caress somebody over, and now he's trolling the poo poo out of them, and actually coming out on top. People take everything on the internet so goddamn serious within the last few years, saying anything off color will have people down your throat. Even on SA, cracking any kind of off color joke will get yourself dogpiled, when SA used to be one of the better sites at mocking people doing the same thing SA does now. It's all just a cluster gently caress and people need to take that vaulting pole out of their asses and lighten up some.

Those "off colour jokes" you're talking about are pretty much to a one, lovely racist/bigoted opinions disguised as jokes, or at best, being edgy for the sake of humor which is still pretty bad. Aside from the mods who actually tried to do their job (who are now all gone, unless something else happened since I stopped following the drama) the forums administration pretty much has wholly supported those lovely posters.

For the record, I do not expect anyone to have sympathy for our boy pewds and personally I'm glad he's taking it in stride! If you do not forgive pewdiepie for his youtube atrocities that's fine, he did a lovely thing and got his negative attention for it, deserved or not. But I also think it's pretty silly to refuse to admit the media taking stuff out of context just to further poo poo on him is a bad thing. It's a very bad thing, even when it happens to a guy like pewdiepie.

It's a very bad thing, even when it happens to a guy like pewdiepie. They didn't take him out of context, they established a trend from things he did. He chose not to respond, they published the story because they're newspaper folks, not therapists. This would have been a great time for self-reflection instead of going the Trump-Netanyahu road of ranting about the media. If the media hates youtube creators so much, why aren't they attacking more of them? There's ton of them doing a bunch of weird poo poo, but not all of them are a raging assholes who repeatedly do provocative things and then whine about people being provoked, and then getting signed up by loving Disney of all companies.

A few sources claimed he was a fascist, but the vast majority did not as I mentioned in my post above. And even if they did, the media not giving due diligence to an affluent and influential person is not on par with said person paying dome poor dudes five bucks to send an anti-Semitic message, which is what you seem to be claiming.

I don't know if Jim Sterling has a thread, but his latest video pretty much fits this thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSbwmYsbTKo In short: -rear end in a top hat youtuber pulls a failed kickstarter from the trash. -It's still trash -rear end in a top hat youtuber proceeds to DMCA and delete bad reviews from sites too small to fight back. -Jim calls him out on it and dares him to come after him. I know that pretty much half of his screentime is calling out bullshit steam early access devs, but this one is egregious.
