I've never watched a video of him but know well of his exploits, the man is a genius who has become a multi-multi millionaire from Youtube, there are many thousands of Hollywood actors who will go their whole lives and never be a part of a cast as costly as Pewdiepie's earnings.

Massive respect for him playing the game not unlike the way John Cena has done in the WWE, if you're buying a "I hate Cena" or "lets go Cena" tshirt from wwe.com it's all Merch sales for the one guy, it's the exact same when "haters" watch his videos and leave him negative comments, they're all feeding into those millions of dollars he gets.

Youtube Genius, regardless of the "quality" of his content, it is content which is worth many Millions of dollars.

Funny you'd say this. I never watch Let's play videos so I never cared for PDP content.

One day, a bunch of his haters decided to crucify him here on vgc and they posted this video:

To me, he sounded like a genuinely nice guy in that particular video. Months later, I subbed to his channel (today) to help him achieve the 50m subs milestone after reading the news about how close he is, all thanks to the haters showing me a personal video of him in which he was talking in rational terms  

It happens so often people don't even realize but when you go on a rant about something on the internet you are likely to introduce him to people who do not follow his content already, I mean the guy is so popular now it would make sense that if you know about him... you know about him, if you understand me. Creating a thread on here about him being a dick or whatever, if people know of PDP then they're not going to be influenced by it, because they'll already have made up their mind and wont be swayed by some hack channel trying to get some of his view dollars. But someone like yourself will see the video and maybe check him out, so yeah, haters just spreading his videos and content around are fanning the flames that they would love to put out.

Idiots going to idiot!

 

Edit - Sorry if this is a bit in coherant, hypoglycemic atm, need to find sugar!
