American woman f-ing up the racism debate in the netherlands:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world ... 47231.html

Tl;dr black woman claims she was mistreated by Dutch police. She claimed it was a case of racism and that she was physically hurt. Police have CCTV footage that prove she's actually the one resisting getting fined for a minor offense. Everyone involved shrugs it off except for said woman whose onesided story will echo along indefinitely among her peers.

I haven't searched for it, but that's her account of the story. No way to know if that actually happened.

I don't care much for the PewDiePie content, but the amount of flak and abuse this guy is receiving for what he does seems wholly disproportionate.
For instance, the backlash over the amount of money he makes was bullshit. If he manages to become a millionaire by doing what he does then all power to him I say.

yeah the amount of money he makes seems to be an obsession in the MSM, not to mention online

lots of views + % of ad revenue (set by Youtube) = $$$

how is this problematic?

lol j/k rowling just went down in my estimation

she talks as if privileged youtubers sit in castles all day attended by liveried flunkies while virtuous peasants linger around the gates waiting for a few coins to be flung into their bowls

seriously, some people probably check for nazis under the bed before they go to sleep at night (they way they previously checked for heretics, witches, communists, pedophiles, jews, masons etc etc)

don't recall jimmy getting it in the neck for this joke

then again, if people had known how rich he was maybe they'd have called him an anti-semite as well

@seremtan

pretty sure holding up a sign that says "death to all jews" goes beyond tasteless and fits the textbook definition of anti-semitic. The jimmy carr joke doesn't even compare.

Ahh sweet irony, it's all fun and games til it backfires, It's the offensive nature that's meant to be the funny and with a man of his following, it's also playing with fire. Frankie Boyle knows how it is.

He's not an anti semite anymore than any comedian telling a Jewish joke.

"Worst thing about being a black jew is sitting at the back of the oven" is another one of Jimmys.

You have a right to be offended, but you're being a little bitch on a bandwagon if you are.

He might not be anti-semitic, but his stunt was. It wasn't even clever like those other jokes, and certainly doesn't need an army of white knight trump twats defending him because a couple sponsors pulled out.

Obligatory :olo: @ the straight white male telling historically oppressed minorities what should upset them.

It was ironic comedy, like those other jokes. Satire if you will, some are worse than others but shouldn't have people branded a racist because some got butthurt over something that was meaningless. Those who do get offended are being little bitches and if his actions were anti semitic then those of Jimmy, Regi Hunter and Jim Jefferies are too.

I'm Welsh, btw, a historically oppressed minority :)

Jews are white too, so where's their white privilege ?

shaft, I'm not saying PewDiePie's actions were in good taste, but if you see how this story was framed then it's blatantly clear that this isn't about anti-semitism.

I honestly don't give a shit or know anything about him. I didn't follow the story. I read he had someone stand there with a sign and that he had done similar (anti-semitic) stunts in the past.
I stand by my comment that this type of shit doesn't need defending.
