I had a conversation with my brother, growing up together we developed similar interests video games. ( I promise this is going somewhere ). Anyways we both watch our fair share of the LP dudes on you tube, my brother watched or watched as the case may be PewdiePie. He informs me today that he had stopped witching the guy, actually for a few months now. I ask why, interested in what turned him off of the dudes video, I never had an interest but the guy is popular. So for... social analysis and curiosities sake I was interested if he had changed the formula at all.
So my brother says and I quote " Yeah, I stopped watching him because he keeps slinging the N word around in his video"
Not absorbing the statement in full I respond with a "Oh yeah i guess that would make someone stop" 2 minutes later. I finally understood what he said and looked confused on why that was even a thing.
Full disclaimer, my brother could be bullshitting me right now. However bullshit or not it brings me to my question.
So black Gaf, have you ever started watching a series, only to have the creator of said series start slinging terms and ideologies you weren't to cool with an stopped, on you tube? I does not have to be strictly race related, just something that didn't sit right with ya.
Heh.
