You can't have an argument, or even a debate without acknowledging the other side as being wrong as supported but what you know. And the arguments don't general possess weight with hyperbole, metaphor, and symbolism. PewDiePie DOES act like a labomotized brat. Like someone opened up his head and scooped out those parts of the brain that would otherwise make him stop and think about what he's saying and the weight behind it.
Thing is, not only does he constantly make jokes about male genitalia and rape, but he does so without any apparent knowledge of the gravity behind the issue. He's making rape jokes for the sake of making rape jokes without any clear direction or meaning behind it. It's almost as if he is advocating rape by how lightly he uses it. When a professional comedian makes a joke, it can be viewed as highlighting an issue and he is adding his input on an issue via satire.
PewDie is not contributing to any discussion on the topics he jokes about. What he does is little more than seeing a black man and shouting: "HEY BOYS LET'S HAVE US A BARBECUE, I GOT US SOME ROPE!" Every interaction with a character or object - barrel, pig chair, whatever - generally ends up on the wrong side of an abhorrent and insensitive jokes.
And what's frightening it wasn't until just recently he was made aware. And when he realized people were offended, he apologized rather unapologetic fashion. Like he doesn't know why he has to apologize. He just doesn't get what he is saying.

He explains everything, I promise.

Oh god those comments burn! It's like they believe there are no legitimate reasons for hating him. The fanboyism!
Okay, other than that I still don't like him. If I hadn't said it before though, I don't hate him with a huge passion really. I just don't like how he is so popular when he puts nearly zero effort into making his videos and gets a ton of money and there are those who try hard but receive little attention. It's just sad. Jealousy? Why wouldn't a person be jealous of someone who can make tons of money for doing nothing. Then again, I'd still like to keep my dignity.
Another thing though, he blames all the hate on jealousy. People have dignity and that's what would keep them from being jealous really. People have reasons other than jealousy. My god! I just wanted to point that out. I don't mean to make everything he says sound bad but I mean come on. Common mistake though for a famous person to assume all hate is jealousy. I'll live with it.
Anyways, I just don't like him for reasons not covered in the video. He can only fix my problem with him if he just quit. Actually he will some day. All I will do is wait till then.
I still believe Felix is a cool guy, just not a good youtuber.
