I have no proof of course, but i know people who have talked to him and confirmed he has conservative views. Of course he won't say "fuck nigers and spics but most importantly fuck jews" but he has given subtle confirmations that he indeed browses /pol/ and shares the same sentiments about society. He even follows race realists on twitter like Molyneux and has promoted a nazi youtuber. Also, judging that nigger thing, i'm pretty sure he indeed sees blacks as niggers and says it all the time. I know because say it as well, especially when playing CS:GO, because that game is full of niggers trolling in ESEA and faceit, and i say with the same intensity and for the same reason: the nigger in my team is braindead just like that kid who rushed to kill his friend to ruin the stream. Anyway, the whole thing is absurdly hilarious. To think that kid entertainer follows dissident views like race realism and unironically browses /pol/ it's just too good.

But no these are baseless accusations. PewDiePie has literally denounced the alt right numerous times. He's read books by holocaust survivor's which isn't an alt right thing to do. The most he has is the Anti PC narrative. The E;R thing was just him not being informed about the channel enough. And he said nigger because I honestly believe he browses 4chan but not /pol/.

Yeah, i can see how his fans would be skeptic of what i'm saying, and, indeed i can't prove it, but i'm pretty sure of it. I know people who talked to him and said he was anti-immigration and other right positions. Apparently, in a conversation, out of nowhere, he threw the data that wealthy blacks commit more crime than poor whites, and that Jews got expelled literally hundreds of times in history. He also said that he was sick of the SJW culture and that "we need free speech man, i think free speech is important". Again, i can't prove any of this, but i'm confident he'll reveal himself in the next year or so, especially when Trump runs for second time. Also, it doesn't matter, figures like Jordan Peterson and Alt-lite eventually leads people to the far right anyway. Remember the Libertarian to Fascist that the left called out years ago and libertarians just joked about it? I don't know a single libertarian who isn't a "fascist because of immigration". Peterson, Sargons and so on are the same, but even faster, as people who follow the Alt-lite already have such a strong discontent with the left, to convince them of white nationalism will be easy. Politics are becoming interesting, the west is indeed doing Fascism II: Miami Drift and it will result in war, just like WWI, because just like in the pre WWI society, people were sick and tired and full of ennui and just arranged a excuse to go kill stuff. Same thing happening these days.

I mean, he calls Sweden Saudi Arabia and hinted at anti immigration many times. It's obvious that the guy wouldn't just come and say real edgy shit because when he tried being slightly edgy, it already backfired. Anti imigration really isn't far right, and none of the things i've listed i'd say are radical, or even far right (race and iq and hereditarianism are simply true) but in the context of a liberal dominated society, they absolutely are, and in the context of kid entertainer, supporting anti immigration and subtly promoting neo nazis, following Molymeme and Sam Hyde really makes you think.

> He is just an edgy young adult who is just now beginning to find his own voice as he reads more and departs from internet culture.
Even though he was the most famous Youtuber, already a millionaire at his twenties, he was always hated and seen as a kid entertainer, almost a loser. He probably enjoyed the money but it's obvious that he hated recording FNAF in plain 2015. There was then the rise of the edge. Becoming edgy and cool and hip gave him an identity (a "respectable" one, now he's funny for all ages) and he has now fallen into the habit hole and there's no going back. The only way for him to maintain the edgy figure (thus, keeping his identity) is to start being edgier, and there's nothing edgier right now than being a white nationalist (it's the atheism of our generation). So no, he isn't departing from internet culture, the man's identity is internet culture, and his gravitation towards fascism is just the logical conclusion to that. I bet that he's reading this thread and Culture of Critique is on his reading list.

Are you being ironic? A "dogwhistle" is meant to be an esoteric symbol to a group of people that only they recognize. Like if a YouTube personality used words like "Toxic", "Problematic", or even "Mansplaining", that is dogwhistling to SJWs.

The term is nonsensical. Dogwhistles can only be heard by dogs, so if the analogy is that racists are saying things that only other racists can hear, then then the only people pointing it out are themselves racists.

You can understand how a demographic interprets messaging without adhering to their ideology. There's a term "Frogwhistling" for when someone tries to softly introduce a far-right talking point into the mainstream.

The MDE sub was my daily dose of unfiltered internet autism. There were a few things that lead to it's ban. The first and most important was that it broke past 40,000 subscribers which seems to be about the size that r*ddit admins start to pay attention. During this time there was a lot of movement from the previously banned altright sub and incel sub into MDE and they brought their obnoxious behaviours and habits with them. Suddenly the sub was filled with posts linking to insanity for on other subreddits such as r/fullcommunism adr/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns and instead of following the site wide rules these new retarded editions to the sub started brigading all the links and intentionally aggravating those on the other subs. Other posts with half assed attempts of hiding (read: inefective) personal info of other left-wing retards was another problem. Finally the last trend that put MDE on mm thin ice was the "in minecraft" trend where an intense threat of violence would be made followed by "in minecraft". This was obviously not enough for reddit to ignore these threats and on the particular day that Serena Williams lost her match to a Blasian and freaked out the sub and all it's related subs were purged. Many mdefugees think it was because the sub was putting Williams on blast and she's married to the co-founder and executive chairman of R*ddit. I think while that may have been the reason they were banned that day, but that the banning was imminent, every single day they were breaking site wide rules and the rest of r*ddit (read: advertisers) were becoming aware of its presence. Honestly it was really sad losing that sub as though I found the ever increasing politicization frustrating, it was still the funniest community online with occasionally great posts and community projects. There was a fantastic writers club I joined filled with story, scripts and poems that were unbelievably funny and at times thoughtful. RIP r/MDE circa 2015-2017 you will be missed.

Politicization in general was the downfall of MDE. Their best stuff is either non-political or showcased their political views without being heavy-handed about it. By the time WP got canned MDE had just become a platform for their views at the expense of the comedy.

MDE was always political, just that the political slant of it changed with time and that the politics became less and less subtle.

No it isn't. A rock has a given weight that can be independently and objectively measured, just like it has a volume, a color, etc etc. A rock does not have an objective value.

It's not a useful metric at all because it completely depends on who is looking at it.

But if you are saying that it's a useful metric then what should it matter if someone tells you that something has value even if you don't believe it does? Who is right in that case? The person who yells the loudest or acts like the biggest shithead until the other side gives up?

This is true. You may not like it because it gives you a way to lord over people, but it's still true. You could just as easily say that a rock has more value than another. What about sentimental value? Does it matter that an item would have a different value to different people depending on who previously owned the item? If i tell you that a watch owned by your uncle has no more value than any other watches that are identical to it, am i right or wrong?

That's like saying a function isn't well-defined because it produces different results in different coordinate systems. I.e. you don't actually understand what it means.
>This is true.
This isn't true. You may not like it because it exposes your immature taste, naive juvenile relativism and predilections for infantile pastimes, but it's still not true. Existence of multitude of valuation methods, including those based purely on personal factors, does not magically rob people of the ability to think rationally and try to divorce themselves from subjective prejudices whenever needed insofar it is possible (which is only limited by self-awareness). I.e. the absolute majority people selling their uncles watches in the time of need do understand that sentimental value is not to be accounted for in price, but material, engineering, condition, brand name, rarity are. Likewise when asked to determine the value of rocks most will understand to focus on utility of shape or mineral composition, not how much they personally like them aesthetically. Likewise when asked to determine cultural value hierarchy of a number of curios, most people will try to abandon their personal prejudices and employ chiefly more objective factors like historical influence, innovation, craftsmanship, telos etc. And while not all of these are themselves are completely unambiguous, or have a universal metric, such a reduction is already sufficient to provide a broad picture. Moreover as we mature and become more experienced and our expertise in certain fields grows, so does the precision of our factor weighting and valuations, so does our self-awareness and ability to disengage from subjective and separate guilty pleasures from things to strive for. So while every teenager swears by his favorite angsty garage band and YA fiction book being the bestest most patrician things ever, the growing up process usually sees tastes and views converge upon a few discrete foci. It's really not rocket science and it's quite phenomenal to have to explain this to anyone old enough to be here. All it takes is to realize that you are a human being, not a wild animal and that you can consciously make judgments that aren't based solely on "grug liek" and "grug no liek" axioms. But that's too much to ask from an average poopeedoo fan, I guess. Now try that bleach I told you about earlier.

Your entire argument hinged on appealing to the majority of people giving value to certain things as a way to get a baseline on the value of things. Ergo, you believe that a consensus can be reached in terms of value and so if something is loved by a shitload of people, like 80 million, then it absolutely must have value and may even have more value than a lot of the things you think should be more well known or well loved but are not.

Okay so i was hyperbolic, appeal to the majority is not your entire argument. you did make a pretty stupid argument about "maturity" and "becoming more experienced" to imply that anyone who doesn't like your particular set of things lacks those qualities, which is just hilariously egotistical and not really worth debating since you're sad enough without having your delusions of grandeur destroyed.
