NeoGAF's thread on PDP's reaction video is demonstrating a collective IQ no higher than the two digits range.

NG has strong censorship and these threads are not representative of Gafer's actual opinions.

So similar to how Milo Yiannopoulos's book shot up to #1 on Amazon after the UC Berkeley riots, PewDiePie's rate of receiving new subscribers made a big uptick after the media published its allegations.

From Jan 20 to Feb 7, he gets about 26K new subscribers per day. Something weird must have happened during the time period from Feb 8 to Feb 11, so that was why I chose the aforementioned timeframe. The media began to publish its allegations on Feb 14. From Feb 14 to Feb 17, PewDiePie has earned about 289K new subs or at a rate of 72K per day. So far today, he has earned over 40K new subs.

You can find PewDiePie channel's stats on SocialBlade.

Had the people simply point out facts to counterattack Milo in a reasonable way, he would have easily taken a hit in his reputation. Crazy how they thought causing a riot would solve anything.

First time in my life that I support somerthing Disney does. God bless and protect Israel.

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

What the heck does Israel have to do with this?

You're the one who constantly talks about how the 'left' always censors everything. Very odd how you seem to support such a decision (not saying I'm condoning or against it)

NG has a hive mind mentality. That being said, I did specify I was referring to this thread and not the entirety of NG.

And I don't think their forums need someone to defend them. =P

I never understood what people saw in him anyway.

Just play the games yourself. You don't need some guy spouting moronic stuff the whole time. I promise the games are be better without him :)

Doesn't this guy donates millions to charity? I'm sad that the media only focuses on his tasteless mistake that he already apologized for.

I found these. It looks he organizes fundraisers, but I'm not sure if he donates directly his own money:

And how can you oppose feminism and support gender equality at the same time? That's like opposing equal treatment for blacks and then saying that you support racial equality.

Do you support murder?

No? Then you must believe in the bible.

Do you support treating animals fairly and with respect?

Yes? You must be a nazi then.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_welfare_in_Nazi_Germany

I'm just using your own logic.

On topic,

Look! An article in favour of Pewds! Holy shit. Among all the hate-filled articles condemning him, this really surprised me.

A ton of youtubers have come out in support of him as well. I don't think Disney will take him back, but its nice to see that the people are on his side.
