[QUOTE=spectator1;51686715]That is insanely stupid, so what happens if you make Tyrone say the same sentence?? lol[/QUOTE] Tyrone stopped using fiverr and instead does his own service. He probably wouldn't do it anyway since he became a lot more strict on what he can and can't say, his kids are actually behind the camera (he mentioned a long time ago that one video that he had to wait until they were asleep so he could say "bullshit" for one video)

I don't think they should have had to apologize. More like the guys who run Fiverr should apologize to them for being total fucking losers
[QUOTE=Annoyed Grunt;51688498]What if "death to all jews" means "hello" in their language?[/QUOTE] Thats [del]not[/del] how language works. Death to all jews does not objectively mean kill the jews... for some really isolated fictitious group of people it could very well be a greeting of respect. the meaning words have is determined by the person speaking them, anyone else is just interpreting and guessing. This is where misunderstandings come from[url=https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1530396&p=50880230&viewfull=1#post50880230].[/url]
[QUOTE=mayo;51687890]would "death to all whites" be okay with you?[/QUOTE] i'd say death to all straights would do
[QUOTE=rndgenerator;51688765]He sounds rather overprotective tbh.[/QUOTE] If I had kids I'd rather them not be exposed to bad language at a young age, I'd rather them wait till they're older so they can make better sense of the words, when kids are young they tend to repeat things, when they're older they're less likely to do so since they're more likely to understand what it is they've heard.

Are they just standing there? If so, why? Are they operating it? If so, they're old enough to do that but not old enough to understand soft swearing like bullshit?
I disagree that it should be up to Fivver to filter through all their content creators productions/products, but they should not have banned these guys account. Fivver should have given them a strike or something along those lines, given the situation of this particular case. The producers of the jungle kids content should have made sure the content they were providing did not violate the TOS of Fivver, but everyone makes mistakes.
They most likely banned them to avoid the rising controversy. If this hadn't gone viral I bet they wouldn't give a shit even if they knew about it.
Don't forget to be good little goys and donate to your local synagogue to help with holocaust reparations.

[QUOTE=rndgenerator;51689742]They most likely banned them to avoid the rising controversy.

Look at the replies to all their tweets. 95% of them are people pissed off at the ban.

"Let's ruin the income of someone in poor conditions because we don't think a joke someone else made them write was funny"
They should definitely gain their account back. The blame for anything bad should lay in the requester if anything. Also in my opinion that joke was never funny. It seems like it exists simply for "shock-value" and clickbait purposes. Looks like I'm outside Pewdiepie's target watcherbase, then. [editline]19th January 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=mayo;51687890]would "death to all whites" be okay with you?[/QUOTE] Also what the hell are these kind of assumptions supposed to mean? While I can't (and won't) speak for Levithan, as someone who agrees with their statement I don't consider any "death to all x" okay at all. Stop calling people out on shit that they might've never done or supported in the first place.
[QUOTE=krosos8;51691193]They should definitely gain their account back.

They need to take some responsibility. But yes, because they didn't know who Jews were, they should get their account back in this instance.

Stop calling people out on shit that they might've never done or supported in the first place.[/QUOTE] Well he actually has a pretty big history of saying racist/genderist/weird ass shit constantly so its not unwarranted, and second, going "x is absolutely unfunny no matter what" is dumb because comedy depends on context in many cases such as this.
[QUOTE=krosos8;51691193]Also in my opinion that joke was never funny. It seems like it exists simply for "shock-value" and clickbait purposes. Looks like I'm outside Pewdiepie's target watcherbase, then.[/QUOTE] I never considered these kinds of jokes as "shock value" or "clickbait". I always just thought it as mocking and delegitimatizing the kinds of people who would say these things seriously.
I think everyone defending them are forgetting the connotations of the truly reprehensible and offensive things that they said... [i]They told people to subscribe to Keemstar.[/i]

[QUOTE=Primigenes;51692040]That's a pretty weird viewpoint that I've personally never encountered before.[/QUOTE] I mean, that's a lot more well thought out than what I actually think when I hear them, but yeah, it's basically just a ridiculous thing to say and it's made more funny that there are people that actually believe in it. It's not "edgy" or trying to get a rise out of anyone.
it's the shock value and unexpectedness of it tbh. the "oh shit did they actually say that?" I went and saw John Cleese (of Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, etc..) last week, and he was telling a story about when Monty Python had traveled to Germany. Their TV Producer hosts (they were working on Fliegender Zirkus) had decided to take them to Dachau Camp. They got lost on the way there and ended up getting there a bit later than expected. So the TV guys get out of the bus to go get tickets, they come back to the bus and Monty Python and explain that it's actually an early closing day and they can't get tickets. So Graham Chapman says "Tell them we're Jews!". I don't think there wasn't a person in that auditorium who wasn't laughing at the story.

they look so sad :(
[QUOTE=Foogooman;51690816]"Let's ruin the income of someone in poor conditions because we don't think a joke someone else made them write was funny"[/QUOTE] I mean let's not pretend they had no agency in the matter. They could have rejected the offer, and if they didn't know what the message meant they should have checked. I'm not saying they deserve the ban, but not breaking Fiverr's TOS was their responsibility as much as PewDiePie's.

Pewdiepie didn't even have the Jesus guy say anything bad, what the hell? I guess Fiverr just hates Jackspedisee 2.
[QUOTE=TalonAran;51694730]Pewdiepie didn't even have the Jesus guy say anything bad, what the hell? I guess Fiverr just hates Jackspedisee 2.[/QUOTE] Some comments from the Jesus video iirc have someone mentioning he once said something about the Holocaust, lemme see if I can find it
I'm glad that fiverr, the website where you can pay people to do your homework or be a fake employment reference, keeps a straight moral compass in these tough times.
