Yea, it's PewDiePie's fault that this piece of shit shot people :roll: the stupidity is strong with those ones...

It's not PewDiePie's fault. Saying it's his fault is nonsense.

But, like, he might want to step back and think twice about who his content attracts if somebody literally says "Subscribe to PewDiePie" right before shooting up a mosque.

Desentization. Since this is the world we live in, Some people feel that they might as well get used to it so they won't freak out if it happens to them.

But that's what I'm thinking (haven't watched the video, don't want to).

That's stupid. Just stupid. Watching violence on video can't prepare you to experience violence.

Very stupid to blame him. His content does seem to have some sorta right-wing appeal though. UKIP promoted him on twitter the other day. I didn't think he was to political tbh.

He states one of his goals is to help cause a civil war in the United States.

Or just rebuke the shooter, and move on with his day. PewDiePie has more subscribers on YouTube than any other account. Statistically, this was bound to happen.

Nah, I think it's just that it's a stupid meme. The guy's manifesto has a bunch of memes on there, most unrelated to white nationalism or Islamophobia or anything. Moreover, it might be that PewDiePie (a Swede) was in a subscriber race against T-Series, an Indian entertainment channel. White versus non. Obvious who he'd support.

Can't wait for some ACAB thug to say "The NZ Police support massacring Muslims" because they took the shooter into custody after he surrendered, instead of dealing him street justice.

Yes, and JD Salinger should have thought twice too, right? :roll:

Is it wrong to say that NZ Police should have shot him, because I think that's what they should have done to an armed and dangerous man who gunned down and probably killed dozens of innocent civilians.

No. It really wasn't.

Well, let's start off with PewDiePie's subscriber count. About 88,000,000. New Zealand has a population of about 5,000,000.

Murder rate is about 50.

Actually, come to think of it, you're right.

But it doesn't. The vast majority of people watching the video and others like it would still be sensitive to violence actually occurring around them.
