But I didn't tell him to delete his channel. I just said I hope he does it. There's a difference.

I know a lot of people like his channel. I think I still have the right to say I wish he deleted his channel, and I don't think it's in bad taste either. Now if I actually had the power to delete his channel and I did, that would be in extremely bad taste - and I know I wouldn't do it. The way I see is that wishing him to delete his channel is just a strong expression of opinion. It's probably not an expression I would use if I knew he was listening because it's not constructive in any way, but because he's not listening, there's no need for my opinion to be constructive.

Well I personally don't really see how it would change anything based on whether he was listening or not since in the end of both you're still saying you hope he deletes his channel, but I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. 

And yeah dude, everyone has the right say whatever they want lol. If you truly dislike his content enough to where you would want him to delete his channel entirely because of it, then sure I guess it's just a strong expression of your opinion. Your fully entitled to think however you want, just like how some people do like his content and don't want him to shut his channel down.

I'm not trying to say you have no right to think that or hope that he deletes his channel, I just think anyone simply saying "Delete your channel" offers nothing and isn't really valid criticism as it's a pointless phrase, it says nothing about why that person doesn't like him or his content. But I know you weren't simply saying delete his channel, so it's whatever. 

It really is just a matter of opinion in the end. The way I see it is just that if I dislike something, as much as I might dislike it I can still see that other people like it, so I personally think of it as "Well they can go ahead and like it then, but i'm not gonna watch it". 

Yeah, looks like we're going to have to agree to disagree. I can totally see why my stance on this can be seen as, um, controversial though.

I think I don't actually mind his channel existing, it's more about running into news about him. I guess my dislike is so strong that even reading about him annoys me. Solution? No channel, no more news! I don't know if that's really true, but it's the only explanation I can come up with, and it feels like it has at least a bit of truth to it. Generally my stance on things I don't like is the same as yours (or at least I think so), but for some reason it's different in this case.
