Just watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtxXKezbQ9w
It's not anti-semitic in any way. The media misunderstood it on purpose to make bad news about Pewdiepie.

Even if it wasn't anti-Semitic, it was still in very bad taste.

It's only bad because it's PewDiePie. If it was a well liked comedian then people would be circle jerking right now.

Good. Can't stand the prick.

Why does he still have a fanbase? Don't 12 year olds have anything better to do other than watch youtube? 



Disney and Youtube are wussy LMAO ...

Damn it doesn't take much to hurt their feelings, now does it ? LOL ...

This has nothing to do with hurt feelings and everything to do with money. Consumers generally react poorly if you sponsor someone who makes antisemetic comments. 

And yeah, everyone with a little bit of common sense can see he didn't mean it, but that's not the point. We all know how media will portray this as.

If that's how it is then Disney or Youtube must have very little integrity as content sponsorors ...

There is no such thing as systematic discrimination.

https://www.thestar.com/news/immigration/2016/03/17/jobseekers-resort-to-resum-whitening-to-get-a-foot-in-the-door-study-shows.html

So the overal callback rate was 16.7% but whitened black resumes has a 25.5% callback rate and whitened Asian resumes have 21%? So the results are even higher than the average? So whitened ethnic resumes get more callback than the average resume, which would be a "white" resume? How does that work? Especially when they cannot hide the Asian ethnicity with the surname?

And on top of that, the ethnic resumes show political involvements whereas the whitened ones show charities?

Seems like they had a result in mind and worked towards it. But it still could not hide that western Asians have a higher callback rate than whites.

There are at least 6 other videos where he makes antisemitic 'jokes'. Joking more than 3 times seems to indicate something deeper and actually is offending.

Except no one even heard about this until now.
