Nah I'm saying you say racist shit, you don't get off the hook.
Is there an avenue to getting off the hook? Apologizing and not doing it again? Or does he lose everything for the rest of his life?
For context, I barely know who pewdiepie is. I just have to imagine that when public figures fuck up, maybe there's a spectrum of available consequences other than "they must lose their job and never been spoken of again."
He didn't really apologize at all. He brushed it off, moved on, and then everyone pretended like it didn't exist.
His PR machine worked hard to clean up his mess.
Imagine if JK Rowling's got quiet then two years later, came back and everyone gaslight you into saying they just went through a phase.
And yet, I'm the one getting heavily down voted.
Thanks for the context. I read your comment as "you don't get off the hook ever" which is not what you said.
I think your original argument just wasn't fully fleshed out. Seems you don't like the guy for a lot more reason than the one you gave, which might be legitimate.
Damn, so according to you anyone who played COD or Halo back in the day should also be banished from society?
I was thinking QtPie, who is a much nicer person.
Pretty sure PewDiePie is an ass, but "he said a racial slur once ten years ago" isn't a great argument against anyone, generally.
