Learn Linux fuck cults
I don’t care about why pewdiepie is shit or a horible person. I think its good that through this more people come to linux. This and the October when Win10 shutsdown will hopefully make a massiv migration to linux. Even if its only on a second or third device
Gardiner’s thumbnails always look like those duck-face high school chicks from the 2000’s. He just needs to stick his tongue out in some of them and throw the peace sign next to his cheek.
Can someone give me a tldr about why the hate towards Pewdiepie? I have not followed him in absolute years.
For me it’s just generic influencer dislike. Wouldn’t go as far as hate though. It’s just that I pre-emptively don’t care about what they have to say. Clickbaity titles “this is why…” (without explaining why) certainly don’t help.
He made an edgy/abhorrent¹ joke years ago for which he apologised and Lemmy is even worse than Reddit so people still lach onto that.
¹ Whether it was just edgy or much worse than that I leave to the reader to decide. The joke was that he paid some guys in Africa to make a sign saying ‘Hitler did nothing wrong’ or something to that effect. This one of the things that likely contributed to adpocalypse on YouTube.
Well buddy it’s a bit more than that. Personally, I’m not holding it against the guy maybe he’s changed so I’m not gonna freak every time I see him but pretending that’s it is wild.
The man in anger called some guy the n-word. No joke to it. Straight up, I’m angry so I’ll call this guy a racial slur. This, along with the constant (and it was constant) skirting with racism and Hitler which were framed as jokes made it clear that it wasn’t just a bunch of jokes. Wearing a military uniform that was as close to the Nazis as possible, constant talk of a final solution, jokes about ‘them’, German speaches, zieg heils, dog whistles, and alot more were commonplace in his videos at the time.
You don’t just randomly shout the n word in anger for the first time on live stream.
The guy was obviously going down the pipeline and people still don’t like him because of that. Not one joke but a constant stream of them along with a very telling instance
He didn’t make “an abhorrent joke” he made repeated racist jokes, and served as a key funnel into the alt-right pipeline for years (and possibly still does).
Do I need to mention the entire “bitch lasagna” song he released to almost a hundred million impressionable children almost solely featuring racial micro and macro aggressions for Indian people? With gems like:
Your language sounds like it came from a mumble rap community
He literally dropped the n word hard ER entirely derogatorily on stream
That and the N word. And the nazi sympathies.
Me to do what ? “Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me” ( I’m doing it 20 years ago)
I think it’s great that such a large content creator like PewDiePie made a video about Linux
I had this as my take away too. I could personally give two shits about his or any others creators userbase / content - I think that if we want Linux adoption rates up it’s always welcome when it is talked about.
Is the point here to promote Gardiner’s channel/video. If you don’t want to talk about pewdiepie (the gist of all these other comments) you could talk about Gardiner and his videos instead.
Fuck Pewdiepie
Youtuber Johnny-come-lately gets way too much attention.
Fuck that racist loser, I don’t care if he uses a good OS. Him and his fanbase are toxic.
Whooooooo caaaaaares what this fucking dipshit thinks? Sick of seeing fucking posts about it.
+1
Why should I care what “content creators” or “influencers” want/suggest me to do?
Enough.
