    This isn’t about my misremembering a really good satire bit as fact because it was so close to true.

    At press time, PewDiePie was once again under fire for an incident in a new PUBG stream where, after getting run over by a vehicle, he accidentally left his house, booked a flight to Kentucky, stayed in a hotel for three days, and joined a Civil War reenactment fighting as a Confederate soldier.

    ???

      Keep on going. The more you say “this is about stopping the spread of misinformation” and ignoring the fact that pewdiepie is a racist who inspired a literal nazi mass murderer you are just showing your true colors.

          Dude you need to work on your reading comprehension. That article is not making fun of the backlash. The backlash isn’t mentioned ore even hinted at.

          It is making fun of how in 2018 he had a habit of saying and doing racist shit and then half assing an apology and hypothesizing that the next move could plausibly be putting on a kkk robe and then making a bad apology. There is no mention of backlash.

            Man who didn’t read the article he shared tells those who did read it that they “need to work on their reading comprehension”. You’re so stupid you’re actually writing satirical headlines about yourself now. Except, unfortunately for you, it’s not satire because you really just typed that out. Wow.
