It's pretty funny watching all of neogaf's former targets reveling in its demise
I have to admit, I never liked PDP but I subscribed after watching a few of his new vids about the constant witchhunting against him by these fucking loons. The guy is very different than he used to be a decade ago, I kind of like him now.
Oh no! He blurted out a bad word in a moment of frustration! HANG. HIM.
What? No hanging?
No because I'm not a fucktard who says the n-word when I get mad at a video game. Amazingly, I also have control not to say the N-word when I get mad at work because I guess I'm a decent human being and has I don't know.....self control?
But not everyone can be you, oh virtuous one. Some people in fact are not perfect and not as composed and in complete control of themselves as you.
This is the problem with overly Conservative, alt-right, centrists, ect whatever "I"M NOT LIBERAL I"M SMARTER BOTH SIDES try hards". They look for whatever little holes in arguments they can take to extremes ironically missing the supposed middle ground their supposed intellectual brain was actually aiming for.
Even the dumbest teenager knows that saying the n-word out loud in public no matter how angry or not angry they are is a bad idea. Why say it? To get a reaction most of the time. To show how angry or ticked off they are?
And guess what, no school would buy that excuse. A quick kick to the nuts you'd basically receive.
Why do they yell the word on XBL? Because they know it's bad and will probably get some attention.
No boss at work is going to say "Oh well you see John was angry would he called the black lady trying to return an open dvd with no receipt the n-word. You know people just get mad". And thats fucking retail, filled with unprofessional SOBs. You're average cart pusher isn't going to be an idiot and say that word.
Because it's not cool and people know it's not something they should say. Because it's been made a bad word.
I don't care what happens to Pewdepie. You're mistake is thinking that anyone who appears left is an extreme Social Studies Warrior or some other nonsense. I don't care about the guy, I don't even think he should lose his job or well being. But if the market dictated he did then I would understand, because every person knows you just don't have flippant use of that word. Especially, when you're job is streaming to millions who are going to be on your ass for any and everything they hear.
Virtuous one? GTFO off this forum if you think not using that word is some idea of righteousness. Maybe because I don't live in an isolated place where there are actually plenty of POC, but I've never meant anyone at school or work who would just throw the n word out because they were angry and were later like "opps I let it slip". No if they used it when they were angry, they knew damn well what they were saying. When you're angry, you don't lose all your marbles and say and do stuff that reveals other aspects of your personality. You just don't become a radically different person who all of a sudden just pushes out racial slurs and is in no way representative of the "nice" you. That's bullshit.
And the hilarious part of this defense is pewdiepie didn't even look like he was distressed. He wasn't throwing a controller around angry at all.
