Please, Use Your Brain...
It's honestly surprising to me how many people still show anger and hatred towards people who don't support Pewdiepie anymore.
So, a grown man goes onto the internet to interact with his MASSIVE fanbase, which in turn has way more significant of an impact, and in the most literal sense uses a SLUR as a genuine INSULT towards someone. While face-to-face with people who have looked up to him for years, supported him, given thousands of hours towards to support, just for him to completely disregard an entire COMMUNITY with one moronic action.
His literal first response to anger and frustration in that moment was to use a slur. Not a fucking little insignificant curse word, a slur connected to GENERATIONS of injustice and genocide, related to something that has so much more of a serious impact than he could even imagine. Than he could even understand, along with the majority of people with their mouths wide open accepting an apology not even DIRECTED TOWARDS THEM. As if your word, as someone who is white on MOST occasions, is SOMEHOW above the word of people who are the only ones capable of truly understanding the impact of his words and actions. People who have RELATIVES who have TRAUMA from racism, because IT ISN'T AN OLD STORY, IT'S REAL AND STILL RELEVANT.
For the love of everything, don't go around using BLM as a way to further your point supporting a man who literally disregarded the lives of THOUSANDS of Black fans who looked up to him. Responsibility is important when you are a GROWN ADULT making that large of an impact to that many people. Especially if it's on a platform like YouTube, where people literally WATCH you grow in front of them, with them, regularly and directly, in a way that is so much more on a intimate level and that has such a large impact. And that impact is even bigger WHEN YOUR FANS ARE QUITE LITERALLY 9 YEAR OLDS.
The way that people disregard the impact of this man's actions in favor of comfort without change is genuinely disturbing.
The most cancel culture has done to this man is increase backlash, which literally comes with being a massive figure on the internet. Not to mention that, idk, maybe if you have that many fans THE BACKLASH MIGHT EQUATE TO THAT. It's almost like the more people you have watching you, the more people you impact and hurt when you do ignorant careless shit! Isn't that lovely?
But at MOST, cancel culture has not changed ANYTHING on this man's stance. He's still one of the biggest people on YouTube, making just as much revenue, having MILLIONS of people STILL supporting him.
I KNOW. Cancel culture was so terrible to him! (His follower count totally isn't still 112 MILLION!!) It must be terrible to have to be held accountable for bad actions as a grown adult responsible for the influence he has as an influencer! How awful it is for people to want a man borderline 40 to log off the internet, go touch grass, and maybe just maybe do that to make up for the absolutely massive and terrible impact he made to thousands of his fans!
Thousands of people who looked up to him and idolized him, just to find out he's like so many others who have UNDOUBTABLY hurt them just as badly in life with those words.
Because while he gets to apologize, forget, "change" and leave that moment behind, countless of his fans cannot! Because they will always associate him with an issue he inserted himself in carelessly, an issue that has CENTURIES of impact no one can understand the true pain of unless they grew up in that community. Which still ACTIVELY is facing that same horrific injustice regularly!
So yes, I think that people are allowed to be angry at someone who did that significant of a mistake at the expense of years of their support and love! Because physical wounds heal, but words don't. And YOU as a "critic" don't get to draw your own conclusions to a situation you can't even fully understand, because that is blatant ignorance! (talking to all his fans who aren't part of the community impacted)
(Also, this post, unlike the ones that support him, is actually reiterating the words of those who have ACTUALLY been impacted!)
You also don't get to draw your own lines when you yourself constantly let others, yourself, and people you favor cross them.
You're angry about the most minor petty impact out of this entire situation, and demean others for being angry.
You hate when people are too intense with their disapproval and honestly can't help but joke about your inhumane "niche opinion" because if they don't they'll only be left to cry, but then support shitty "critique" dry humor streamers and YouTubers who's entire personality surrounds telling people they're cringe and to "kys haha". Don't put on a pretty face if you've never played pretty.
Maybe put the energy you put into supporting this man into actual real life problems, instead of shedding light on them JUST to further your point that literally ends up harming them more than anything. Maybe let this little part of your nostalgia go and actually MATURE, please. Because this is not it. It's not even on the same spectrum. It's ignorant and COMPLETELY dismissive.
Just because he's someone you favorited, doesn't mean he's exempt from being held accountable for shitty things that had way too big of an impact to simply be swept under the rug and left behind. I promise, he's not a 10 year old child that made an honest mistake, he's a grown man that had responsibilities and carelessly fucked them up in the worst way possible.
You're not brave if you still support this man. You're willingly ignorant and dismissive, end of story.
And since people love criticism when it comes to getting a message across, here's some of mine! Freedom of speech is a lovely thing, isn't it? It's such a sight to see when insecure people come to the realization that criticism does in fact work both ways and they're not a special exception!
Anyways, that concludes my rant. If you want to support a better gaming YouTuber, maybe go watch some Coryxkenshin! Or, even better, a hygiene YouTuber since I can smell y'all PDP supporters from a mile away, like abetweene! She's wonderful.
Byeeee 🫶✌️:]

I don’t understand the concept of sex as the natural progression of romance. I understand having sex, I understand how it can be romantic, I just don’t understand how it is seen as the only course that romance takes.
Like love confessions immediately turning to sex is always so ???????? to me. Like ok get it I guess but how did we get here???

The hardest, but most important, part of my transition has been untangling what my personal dysphoria is, and what is more a result of cissexism.
What I mean by this is that I learned that I am not dysphoric about certain aspects of myself, my body, and my life, but my discomfort in these aspects was influenced by the cissexist culture I live in which told me I couldn't exist as myself.
It's definitely a slow process, but I have found that it helps me self-actualize and actually see myself instead of what others demand of me.
