    he dint really accept his/or dealt with the consequences, he merely fled to japan to avoid and waited til all the drama died down, he mostly isnt on a redeeming arc, everyone just forgot about him.

      he dint really accept his/or dealt with the consequences,

      1. He publically apologized for it (no ukulele though, which is how you know it’s a fake apology)
      2. He didn’t do it again

      What else would you want him to do?

      And what consequences are you specifically talking about?

      I’ve never seen piewdiepie before his Linux journey. What did he do and what consequences does he deserve?

        He did/said a bunch of racist shit in videos/streams.

        In 2019 someone livestreamed themself committing a hate-crime/mass shooting, killing 51 Muslim people in New Zealand. The shooter began his livestream with “subscribe to Pewdiepie!”

        That seemed to be a rude awakening for Pewdiepie, and I believe that he’s stopped with the racist shit.

            He’d use the N-word, and make “jokes” like paying people to make a sign that said “death to all Jews”.

            I assume that he was trying to be edgy, but it was a little too far.

              Just want to point out that he used the N word once, got hugely criticised for it, and didn’t do it again.

              Not trying to defend nor minimise any of his actions, btw. Take from that as you will. Just want to clarify, as in my opinion your wording kind of implies he did it regularly.
