i mean, following stefan fucking molyneux is a little different from following trump to see what dumb dumb shit he posts.
we know he's a big jbp fan so why is it ridiculous to assume he enjoys the content of other creators in exactly the same sphere?
it's not.
thank you i try my hardest
No excuses for what has happened today, and it's very likely that his capture is the start of something much more ugly. The explosives, the other people, and illegal modifications/parts on his weapons... It's very likely we are seeing the dismantling of a far larger terrorist cell. Hopefully everyone involved is caught before they can act.
PDP's supposed influence is such a minor point in this whole thing. There are people who are way more responsible for spreading the messages that cause someone to develop this man's twisted ideology, why are you getting so hung up on PDP just because the dude mentioned the 'Subscribe to PewDiePie' meme? I'm fairly sure I've seen every YouTuber I've watched say that at some point, regardless of political affiliation, it isn't an alt-right meme.
He literally directly disavowed the alt right and nazis, and stated he will never make those kinds of jokes again simply to not give them any more wrong ideas about how he feels about them.
Can you link me to this?
You're grasping at straws. Obviously facepunch won't be banned, we play an active role of storming out racist shit here.
Its simple, we close down extremist forums and social networks on popular social network sites. But governments must play a big role in diverting intelligence to monitor these sites, which clearly isn't the case.
Fuck me Reddit should had closed down, or be forced to closed down the donald years ago. But they still allow them to thrive.
The problem with these boards? The mods of these subs are white supremacist themselves. The fuck are you gonna do when the mods themselves are racist assholes?
Fucking horrible. I can't believe someone can be this evil. Hope he fucking rots in jail.
On the subject of Pewdiepie:
It's a bit disingenuous to say that Pewdiepie is complacent with his alt-right fanbase. He has repeatedly said that doesn't want anything to do with these kinds of people and that he doesn't share their ideology. What more can he do? This is one of the more recent videos discussing that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjCsOmDmjEU
Aside from that, of course he's going to have a sizable alt-right fanbase! He's the most subscribed-to YouTuber in the world (89 million subscribers), he's bound to have fans from all groups in life. I don't think it has much to do with his content since he kind of just highlights popular memes. I know it's anecdotal, but I watch most of his videos and aside from having Ben Shapiro host meme review, he never really veers into alt-right territory on memes or any ideas he has.
You can probably expect him to address this situation in a video soon.
I hope this guys court case is made public in some capacity. I want to hear what kind of twisted malignant seires of neurones had to fire in order to make him do what he did.
Humans are not this evil by default, something was seriously wrong with this man's brain or his environment and I want to know what it was in the hopes that I can do something about it in the future.
This is a sensible defense of Pewdiepie that doesn't declare it's forbidden to talk about him. He is a part of culture, like it or not, and we should be able to discuss what his influence on it is. It doesn't mean you can't come to the conclusion that he's not a significant part of this.
This, I also think you can be of the opinion that he maybe should be more outspoken against it while at the same time, just cause he's disavowed the altright in the past doesn't necessarily mean he's not complacent and that he can't be criticized. And I just wanna make it clear I'm not at all trying to make the point that he's to blame for stuff like this.
Well, we'll see when Pewdiepie makes his eventual response. I'm pretty sure he's said something along the lines of "if you're alt-right I don't want you as my fan, unsubscribe please" in the past, but I can't find it right now (I don't have the time to sift through all of his videos).
ResetERA is in full on PewDiePie attack mode right now.
How many times does he have to say he doesn't support any of this stuff. He has said bad things in the past but everybody has. Saying he is complicit in this fucked up situation is terrible and could really fuck somebody up. Again that is the least of anybody's worries considering so many lost their lives today, but people shouldn't point the finger at particular people other than the actual shooter.
ppl attacking pewdiepie is really part of exactly what this guy wanted, so nice going, guys.
Completely disgusted. I don't know if the support from 8chan or the act itself is what sickens me the most, knowing there are people out there currently applauding it and could even want to follow in his footsteps.
This whole attention being diverted to Pewdiepie is fucking nonsensical. Jesus, it was just a fucking dumb as way to get more influence and coverage.
So were you planning on backing this up or anything or did you just feel like leaving a big steaming shitpost and then leaving?
honestly Pewdiepie is basically unrelated to this, I feel sorry for the guy for having someone say his name before doing something this atrocious.
there are so much more important factors to talk about, like breaking apart communities that have a direct hand in orchestrating this shit. I was morbidly curious and took a look at 8chan's pol earlier, honestly felt like I'd be put on a list for looking at it, the place is fucking insanity. for what it's worth it seems they've managed to convince themselves it's a "Jewish false flag" to discredit their site. what a bunch of spastics
I haven't read up about this in a few hours and suddenly PewDiePie is part of the discussion?
That's because the terrorist said "subscribe to Pewdiepie" in his video, before the killings happened.
This was covered literally right now on Spanish TV (~10 minutes before this post). They have actually shown footage of the person shooting people inside the mosque and pedestrians, the writings on the guns, etc.. It didn't seem uncensored either (didn't see the original video) but I am legitimately surprised they showed the video at all.
Really, news sites should listen to this:

I watched the video and i've gotta say, i've seen my fair share of horrendous things on the internet and this is by far the most disgusting video i've ever seen. I literally puked.
I even called a crisis hotline, that shit left a scar in my mind. Sorry about my rambling, just had to get it out.
Understandable - the sheer number of people shot in such a short period of time is deeply disturbing. Personally I think I've just seen too much stuff out of
the mid-east, ISIS, cartels etc for it to effect me physically though.
Yeah, I went on to 8ch to check it out myself. I only watched the first few minutes so I can't say I pushed myself to see it all, but I'm so dead to some of this stuff after growing up on internet and seeing pain olympics, those russian hammer killers, other shit throughout the years I only just grimaced and winced.
I'll never understand fucks like that on 8ch though that cheer it on and celebrate how dead they are from all of this. The more of this awful shit I see, the more infuriated and determined I am to stop it.

Big O O F.
A few pages late, but it looks like the tweet's gone. What did it say?
As someone who only recently lost a close family member to cancer, and as an Australian citizen with friends in Christchurch.
This just hammered home how messed up the world is to me. I've been browsing 4chan (and occasionally 8chan) for nearly 10 years now, since I was like 14 and nothing has effected me like this has. Going on /pol/ because that sorta just where I go whenever morbid curiosity strikes me has scarred me this time. Seeing people so hateful and cheering on such senseless deaths has just... I don't even have words. Maybe it's just me maturing after my own hard life event, but even going into discord servers and seeing people laughing at the "memery" of this guy has just completely turned me off of the places I used to go for the majority of my social interaction. Basically everyone I know and talk to is from 4chan and so many of them are already cracking jokes at this.
I probably sound pretentious as hell, but fuck do I wish I could hug my family right now. Lots of love to everyone effected by this, no one deserves to lose parents or children over what is essentially a fucking game to these people.
If I remember correctly it was just him saying Brightbart (or whatever the hell that site is called) and linking to an article. Never read it myself as I don't want to go onto that site and give my computer the digital version of the clap.
