    Yes, the actual history of his actions over a decade is devastating to your shit take of “he condemned one Nazi who referenced him specifically once so he didn’t face legal action,” I can see why that would annoy you.

      I don’t know much of Pewdepie and your sources are quite laughable tbh:

      In one of the controversial videos, Mr Kjellberg paid two Indians through a crowd-sourcing website to hold up a sign which read “Death to all Jews”. In a response to the criticism, he said he was “trying to show how crazy the modern world is, specifically some of the services available online” and that people “would say anything for five dollars”.

      It’s kinda poor taste rage bait disguised as social commentary but far from “nazi”.

      Not really, considering being edgy explains his behaviour.

      Also, can you pull up anything more recent? Because as far as I know, people change.
