>which had advertisers pull out of YouTube
Nah, as already explained, it was the bad youtube algorithm that keeps putting ads of big brands like cocacola in terrorists videos that caused this. So this argument is not valid against him. He was used as scapegoat for this.

>more sensible YouTubers pay the price
Nah. If they follow the rules, they have nothing to worry, I would say that they can earn even more being smart because there will be more ads being removed from rule breakers that can be transferred to them. Besides, he is the one that gets demonetized everytime for nothing because trolls keep flagging him even when the video is safe for all ages.

>bullied kids doesn't have a good time in youtube
If anything, with all this happening, youtube got way stricter. It is way better place for kids now, without all the elza/spiderman porns and such targeted at kids, that actually were monetized.

I guess that the main argument was kids are not safe in a platform where his is present.
His channel does not target kids anyway. He even already showed his statistics where the majority of his audience is over 18.
Not like other youtuber who actively targets kids.

Yeah, fuck algorithms and spam-bot channels. Videos that are aimed towards kids with family friendly words and recognizable cartoon characters with no sense of coherence or reason, followed by something disturbing. I don't know what kind of person thinks spiderman with a pregnant elsa is a good idea unless it were done somewhere like Eastern Europe, places where pop culture osmosis is nonexistent.

Of course it's not just spam-bots. Terrorists (both foreign and domestic, including the NRA), drama-mongers like Keemstar, the Paul brothers and PewDiePie screaming like they're mental patients. Keemstar, Roosh V and Sargon of Akkad still allowed to be horrible shitheads while YouTube restricts LGBT videos as innapropiate for kids, someone talking about how deal with coming out the closet is hardcore gay porn. Perhaps PewDiePie alone isn't to blame. YouTube, the company itself, is both autocratic and laissez-faire in all the wrong places. YouTubers are already losing their money and YouTube's excluding those under 5000 subscribers from making money. If anything, the ones on Patreon are very lucky because YouTube won't tell them that their livelihoods are being radically changed, usually more ill than good.

To quote Jim Sterling: "YouTube... has a YouTube problem."

The NRA made an advert with a woman targeting politicians, celebrities and other influential figures using their fame and power to warn people of Trump and white supremacy by saying "We're coming for you.". If you think this hate-fueled terrorist propaganda piece, encouraging gun-nuts to go out and shoot people, doesn't make the NRA look like terrorists, then you must be living in Dodoland.

Already, we're seeing BLM figures being murdered for taking down flags that represent advocacy for slavery and genocide. The NRA are terrorists and Trump's party to defending rapists and pedophiles.

PewDiePie himself is a liability and deserves to have his channel deleted if he can't control himself.
