if you dont check your bank account you can pretend nothing is happening

Just heard someone say “30 years ago, in 1993,” and stopped what I was doing. I froze. What do you mean 1993 was 30 years ago. That’s illegal

Every time I see this I think “why would this duck want to feed fish?” and then I remember that I also occasionally want to feed fish so why wouldn’t the duck?

Hey I’m once again seeing discourse about PewDiePie (probably because he has been welcomed back into the larger community of youtube personalities playing Among Us like Corpse Husband, JackSepticEye and Cr1tikal) and I just want to remind people of his ugly racist history that he has never properly put behind him and in fact continues to perpetuate.

His fanbase has always been racist. He was one of the first big YouTubers and he has always made racially charged jokes and has said the n-word in videos - notably, targeting somebody else with it. I watched his content when I was a young child, I experienced these things first hand. There were racist jokes, rape jokes, and generally sexual jokes targeted for his younger demographic. He has always been known as problematic, as problematic was used back in 2012.

A preamble to his first exposé: in November 2016 he showed up to a taping of his own series produced by Maker Studios (Disney) wearing a shirt with a swastika on it. Somebody told him to change. He denies this ever happened, but acknowledged that the shirt exists. There are photos of him and a friend wearing it.

The thing he got caught for was when he paid two men $5 to write and hold up a sign with the words “Death To All Jews”. His apology was half-assed. He apologized for the way that it came across and did not acknowledge the reasons that it was wrong. Febuary 2017: he descends into utter alt-right reactionism, harassing the WSJ journalist and sending his fans after the publication to the point where the Journal offered to put the journalist in a safehouse.

September 2017, he called somebody he n-word on stream, just weeks after Charlottesville occurred - where his imagery, jokes, and memes were used as motivation. He went on to say he had no idea that Nazis actually existed, that the Nazi jokes he was making weren’t funny anymore, and that he would not be making them anymore.

In March 2019, a white supremacist livestreamed himself saying “Subscribe to PewDiePie” before committing mass-shootings in two Christchurch mosques, killing dozens and injuring more. He responded with a single tweet, that he felt sickened that his name left the man’s mouth, and that his heart went out to the people affected. Later, he called for an end to the Subscribe to PewDiePie meme and promised $50,000 to the Anti-Defamation League. He then retracted his decision, saying that he did not want to donate to something that he was not passionate about.

Felix Kjellberg has never made a single attempt to rid his fanbase of actual literal Nazis and white supremacist scum because he built his platform around them. He alone has radicalized probably half of the white nationalist/supremacist/Nazi men in America ages 18-25.

I will never forgive him.

This is taken from the Guardian article from above:

You could say that today’s digital economy has spawned a new “bro-nality of evil”. Racist memes serve as in-jokes that help solidify bonds between alienated white men online. The style of these memes, their overblown exaggerated nature, means we often don’t take them seriously. Dismiss them as jokes. But this is how antisemitism creeps into our lives. Not with a bang but with a punchline.

Happy Chanukkah, everyone.

this is getting a little traction so I just wanted to point out that I’m saying this I’m not black, I am a native Jewish person with a degree in how race, gender, and class move through modern media. Nazis in America target black and Jewish people in particular and it would be an incomplete conversation if I didn’t include his racism.

white female directors have some nerve complaining about lack of gender diversity when it comes to filmmakers and then proceeding to make movies with all white casts. i honestly couldnt even finish lady bird because i kept thinking about much better it would have been if it was about a black girl. or a latina. or an asian girl. or literally anyone else that wasn’t white. how many more ladybirds and booksmarts and edge of seventeens are we going to have to endure before white women realize that movies starring them are not revolutionary. the quirky white girl coming of age movie thing is tired. until white female directors can come up with something else or at least cast some poc in their films, then i won’t advocate for them and they can keep flopping for all i care.

sunfortune

NOT TO MENTION, the poc they do include as side-side-side characters are just shitted on. like lady bird (2017) was already WACK but then as a cherry on top greta gerwig was like “okay! ill have my main character say this racist ass affirmative action line to her adopted asian brother bc shes angry! and white woman anger: GOOD” girl WHAT?? like way to tell the audience to their Face that This Movie is for white girls ONLY, and then literally the SAME type of shit with edge of seventeen (2016) where the main girl would just say borderline Racist ass shit to the asian love interest but it was played off as cutesy jokes so like how about you all just stop and talk to some Real black, brown, and asian people and then get back to us with your revolutionary ideas

also in booksmart: more racism????? white women be like “we’re gonna do a korean face mask” “oh i don’t need to know all the lingo” like haha foreign things are so strange!1!1!1!!1 - and then naming the panda bear a white girl masturbates to “LING LING”. first of all, how did people not lose it over that in 2019??? ling ling???? in 2019??? not to mention the implications of it all. full offence but white women are just as terrible and racist as their white male counterparts

Sometimes it blows my mind that there are people that don’t wear glasses/contacts. Like they can literally see with no aid. Like they wake up and just be out here seeing. What a wild concept.

bumblebeebats

And people say stuff like ‘lol don’t you hate it when you look up in the middle of the night and see a spider on your ceiling’ like bitch (!!) i could have Nicholas II last czar of Russia hangin from my ceiling fan and i would be none the wiser

Words to replace said, except this actually helps

I got pretty fed up with looking for words to replace said because they weren’t sorted in a way I could easily use/find them for the right time. So I did some myself.
