jokes aside, spotube’s great

Shit’s great

And here you’ve encountered first hand why these protests don’t work.

Is this a joke? Like 2k people on fedi don’t buy anything from Amazon for a week?

These "economic blackout"s are completely futile. Especially if they only target a single service, or if they target a service as big as Amazon. If this blackout is for everything Amazon operates, you can’t use Twitch, or Fire TV, or Prime Video, or Fire devices, or Kindles, or any website that is run with AWS. You think normies are going to sacrifice all of that ease of use for a week, and even if in some alternate dimension they have any self control over their consumption, they’ll just go back to using Amazon after this protest is over.

Amazon will survive for 7 days. What about people all around the world that quite frankly don’t give a fuck about uspol? What about subscriptions? Invincible 3x8 comes out in this time period, so nobody will watch it? People will stop using a third of the Internet, their streaming slop devices, their e-celeb propaganda outlets? It simply won’t happen.

These blackouts are an immature way to “break the system, man”. They completely ignore the reasons why normies go to the slop mill in the first place. The general population has 0 self control over their spending. They will consume, and consume, and consume, until they die.

Here we fucking go again.

Lemmy user try not to get into unnecessary arguments challenge (IMPOSSIBLE) (MODS CALLED) (MOM I GOT DOWNVOTED PLEASE HELP)

This is one of the Lemmy threads of All Time

How the fuck did I command you??? I just told you to chill out, I didn’t instruct you to do anything

Chill out man, you think this behaviour will get anybody to listen to what you have to say?

EDIT: Nice job editing your personal insults with puctures of Saint Luigi in order to avoid a ban. So intelligent.

Not saying felix is a nazi == Pewdiepie stan

The state of this conmunity

If you have an issue with what I said in that thread, reply to the deleted comment, downvote it, and continue with your day. Stop crosspossting.

Brazen accusations and using the word Nazi like a t-shirt gun is why when people do things that are actually reflective of Nazi ideals, like Elon’s fortnite emote, people immediately stop listening. This doesn’t help anyone.

I was referring to Luigi not his lawyer

Also why do you always immediately go to people’s profiles and flame them for completely unrelated threads? You did that for that degoogle guy and now me. Seems like a personal attack, which is a pretty lame thing to do, man.

Broken clock

Good point

It’s absolutely true, look it up if you don’t believe it.

So first thing I found was this time in 2018 where he found a video by a creator called E;R about death note, and reccomended him without doing a background check. So E;R was a racist and Felix didn’t look further into it. When he was called out, he edited it out and publicly apologized. I don’t think that makes him a Nazi, he just forgot to research what he was promoting. [1]

Now here’s the second thing, which actually involves malicious intent:

Felix Kjellberg, who has 53 million subscribers to his “PewDiePie” YouTube channel, reacts as ​​​​two men hold up a sign saying “Death to All Jews,” in a screenshot of a video ​he ​posted online. Mr. Kjellberg paid them to hold up the sign. The video was published Jan. 11 and pulled from YouTube this past weekend. The Indian men in the video apologized publicly in a video saying “we don’t really know what the message means.”

[2]

Now obviously paying people to say antisemitic comments is terrible, and I think Felix was trying to phrase this as some sort of “”“joke”“” but I don’t think this makes him a Nazi.

There hasn’t been a history of behaviour resembling that of the ideals of Nazis from Felix, especially not enough to say that he partakes in those ideologies. Thankfully his "dark humour " phase ended years ago and he isn’t doing these things anymore, so completely estranging him from anything for it is quite extreme, especially when I have seem some of this sentiment on Lemmy myself. Nor do I think he’s a horrible person for edgy comments and actions that most of us have definitely done one way or another on the Internet.

Ok

You could have just downvoted my comment instead of posting the lowest effort dogshit comment you could have thought of
