Do you believe in rehabilitation? I think its admirable for someone to overcome their shortcomings. Especially considering that we are all products of our environments.
To my understanding he apologized for the horrific things he said in the past and is attempting to better himself as a person. I don’t see him continuing to be a problematic person.
As we watch Kanye, Asmongold, [random influencer] continues to say and encourage their fan base to believe in the most terrible shit…
Remember that if their actions start affecting too much of their pocketbook, they can just apologize. Oh, and pay PR shills to clean up their mess.
PewDiePie spent years putting that belief out in many different ways. What you saw in the news was just what was reported. There’s no remorse. Just a “Well sorry that happened”.
Here is the thing with Asmondgold. He apologized for calling Palestinians subhuman, then went on to say right after that voices for Palestinians deserve what’s coming to them and a bunch of other horrendous shit.
From what I understand Pewdiepie hasn’t been problematic since the bridge incident. So it’s not a 1:1 comparison.
Do you have any evidence that he’s made an effort to make up for his behavior that goes beyond words? This is an honest question, I never followed him because of random happenstance, so I don’t know.
I stopped following him after the incident like many, so I am also unsure. I could be misinformed, but I haven’t heard of any controversies since then.
I am sympathetic because I was once a conservative due to my upbringing. But after moving out and experiencing the world, I have gotten more and more progressive. I shutter at shit I used to say, but can’t change the past. I can only focus on bettering myself for the future.
Serious question.

Who here hasn’t said or done regrettable things?
