Aight, I’m tired of this. This is my final two cents on the PewDiePie drama, then I’m done reblogging it unless its a reply to this post.
I’m standing with PewDiePie on this one.
As I’ve stated multiple time, I don’t agree with what he said. Half of my family is jewish, and it hurt a bit to hear that. However; I can accept it was a joke.
Markiplier and Jacksepticeye know PewDiePie better than anyone of us ever could, considering most of you are getting your information from the MEDIA. Which has a HISTORY of spreading lies and stretching the truth.
You don’t have to like PewDiePie, I don’t, but he is NOT a nazi. He is not a fascist. He is not racist. He makes stupid jokes in an attempt to be funny, and people get butthurt over it.
PewDiePie is the most popular youtuber, and so people expect him to act the way THEY want him to. If people had it their way, PewDiePie would never be able to do shit. He’d be like an emotionless robot.
PewDiePie is a human being, and he’s having these awful accusations thrown at him. I’m tired of hearing people call him a nazi because I’ve seen real nazis. I’ve punched real nazis and fascists and taken detention for it. Pewdiepie is not one of them. Pewdiepie is someone who cares about others enough to raise a ton of money for charities, only to have everyone ignore it when it comes down to it.
Everyone only sees the bad in people when the make insulting comments. Pewdiepie is not a bad person, just someone who uses bad jokes.
Markiplier and Jacksepticeye are not bad people, and I’m sure they don’t condone his joke. But Pewdiepie has lost a lot in the span of two to three days, and right now he needs his friends to stand by him. If I see another person calling Markiplier and Jacksepticeye, two of the sweetest people on the internet, nazi sympathizers, I’m going to snap.
You don’t know these people. I don’t know these people, but apparently I know how to watch a video and take both sides of the matter into account, something a majority of tumblr can’t seem to do because they’re so “upset” because of a white cis guy trying to make a stupid joke.
