      Care to elaborate? I’m not updated to PewDiePie’s stuff anymore. I’m living under the fucking rock.

        He had a bunch of “Haha, I’m just being a nazi ironically and what even is a nazi, this symbol has lots of other historical usages” incidents, such as paying a foreigner to yell “death to jews” and doing a video where he was wearing a shirt with an iron cross on the collar.

            How many years ago was that. It sounds like he apologized and has taken a long break from YouTube and yet here come a bunch of actual screeching fascist saying, “Gross that he uses Linux! Arch is now NaziOS & we want to see him publicly executed still!”

                No fascism is when you’re against free speech & constantly advocating violence against non-violent people who have exercised free speech, and then when someone does apologize for speech you didn’t like then 5 years later you’re still trying to censor those people.

                  Freedom of speech =/= freedom of consequences. If people choose not to associate with you because you support & attempt to normalize a movement that has historically committed mass genocide, or - god forbid - they speak negatively about you in an internet forum 5 years down the line, those people are just exercising their free speech.
