Typical lemmy dumbassery. This behaviour is so fucking boring that the people still acting this way must be children that have a 1-bit processor acting as their brain.
He’s had some controversial things. In 2017 he said the n-word while live streaming a game. The other big one I know of is he made a video where he showed he has paid one of those fiverr groups of Indian children to hold up a sign that said “death to all Jews”. Pewdiepie didn’t think they would actually do it.
They are really not great situations, and the second one I mentioned he should have realised was a bad idea and not done at all. Back in that 2017 era he positioned himself as an edgier meme YouTube, but he has since apologized and vastly changed his content, and i personally believe he’s a very changed person from a decade ago. But the stigma has stuck around.
Im Australian aboriginal and grew up in Northern Australia.
Our uncles used to call us little niggers when we were young.
When they were kids just after we were recognised as Australians and allowed to vote people would refer to them as niggers too
Ironically no one cares about the word the way Americans do
It also means Brown in French
Furthermore here’s a Monash university excerpt with a link to the whole thing for your consideration
“case was brought by an Aboriginal man in relation to the name of a spectators stand at his local football ground -the ‘ES “Nigger” Brown Stand’. This name was displayed prominently on the stand and in addition was used in frequent announcements during football matches at the ground. The decision records that the stand had been named (in 1960) after a local football identity, ES Brown, who during his childhood in the early 1900s acquired the nickname ‘Nigger’. The decision also records that ES Brown was of Anglo-Saxon descent. In the view of the applicant, the word ‘nigger’ always carries a culturally racist meaning and there are no contexts in which it has a neutral or nonderogatory meaning.58 In this case, the respondent led evidence from other Aboriginal people to the effect that they were not offended by the name of the sports stand. The Federal Court judge hearing this case determined that the use of the word ‘nigger’ in this context did not have any racist connotation or message.59 After articulating that s 18C called for an objective test, the judge determined that the use of ‘nigger’ here was not ‘reasonably likely in all the circumstances to offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate an indigenous Australian or indigenous Australians generally."jO Graycar’s work prompts us to ask how the judge formed this (objective) knowledge, particularly in the context of the conflicting opinions expressed by the complainant and Indigenous people called by the repondent.’ By what processes and mechanisms did the adjudicator here come to this understanding of the (reasonable) Indigenous response to the use of the word ‘nigger’ in this context” https://classic.austlii.edu.au/au/journals/MonashULawRw/2004/2.pdf
Decent human beings in every country find that word offensive (with the exception of the people of color slang culture saying it among each other). The people not finding it offensive are mentally ill hate-filled racists.
Why is everybody hating on him ?
He’s a huge cock and he shouldn’t have a following.

Not every country finds saying n word offensive and he’s not American.
Nobody really uses that word other that in the US. Everyone on the internet that knows that word knows it with the context already.
Have I got some news for you,

Yeah, but as a swede myself I definitely know it’s a no no word especially as by that time other YouTube’s already had their own n-word controversies.
