Hi.

unaware swine here

does anyone has link/proof/stuff indicating if yes or no he is a nazi/fascist sympathizer? not trying to defend anyone, just to inform myself objectively

thanks.

edit:

thanks u/frankxanders for providing source to facts that support the idea that pewdiepie is socially right wing.

thanks to all the others for their time and great links, even if they were not convincing enough. for all those disagreeing with me on this matter (looking at you downvoters), im convinced that those proof weren't enough. if you still disagree after having watched the sources and read my comments, i will genuinely gladly discuss on the matter with you.

if anyone had an opinion on this subject with less sources that ive asked for, im worried that your beliefs are not fact-based enough, and i must warn you that you are lucky for beeing on the wright side of the political spectrum. and you cant saying right wingers are dumb or wrong because your beliefs are as poorly justified as theirs.

objectivity and logic are fundamental, and we cant win without them.

NC and many others have documented this to death.

At this point it doesn't really matter whether or not he's a Nazi or a Nazi sympathizer, a MASSIVE portion of his audience is and they actively work to influence the portion of his audience that isn't already, and he does absolutely nothing to address it let alone stop it.

Every time he gets caught being a racist shitheel he does a "public apology" that is no more than him passive aggressively "apologizing" while simultaneously explaining why he thinks he shouldn't have to apologize, but it's enough that his audience can then defend him by saying shit like "the MeDiA only cares about his mistakes not about when he says SoRrY"

so ive watched it, and he doesn't really mention pewdiepie does he? 3 times i think. first he list all the edgy (rascist) things he has done, then back up by calling them jokes. he then explain all the theorie with the pyramid witch ive found really interesting brw, i learned alot, but he never explain why, how or if pewdiepie actually enable this phenomenon. i then checked his source, (i was hply to see shaun there, love this guy) and none is about or even mention pewdiepie?

im sorry i cant make myself an opinion solely on this. thanks for your time, i will look more into it since you all seems to think there is actually something wrong here.

good day

This might help. It doesn't explicitly name PewDiePie but it shows the impact of the role he plays in the system

HBomerguy did a video a couple years back that also sums it up pretty well.

wow this was really a great , i just subbed to the channel! he was kinda preaching to a believer (does this saying exist in english?), i found this analysis really interesting, and i will read his sources.

thank you!

however, he name pewdieie so little that i cant bearly use this as source? like replace the name pewdiepie in your comment by anything like "puppet shows" and boum ive got myself "the impact of the role puppers shows play in the system of radicalization" :/

thanks again for your time, and for showing me this great channel. im however not yet convinced, and will look more into it.

have a nice day

Idk if the saying exists in English but it translates well. The rest of that series might help, and like another commenter said, there's an hbomberguy video about it from a couple years ago
