LEG MAN GOT BANNED.

*Le spin*
All this and much more coming up in 'PEW NEWS'!!
I'm Anders Coopers,
and you're watching Pee news-
PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW!!! (Gotcha)
**pew news intro plays**
The most legitimate news source in the entire galaxy! *totally pewds*
PEW NEWS!!
That's right! *definitely real coughing*
*sharp inhale*
Excuse me for a second, guys
*sexy sipping*
**sexy sipping continues** ***zooms in on beard***
We have our own merch now, check it out, link in the description.
The first story is extremely upsetting,
if you have a girlfriend, or perhaps, a pillow
anime pillow, I urge you to get them right now
'cause this story is extremely upsetting.
"after appearing in another pewdiepie video,
youtube decided that kicking a wall
is hate speech, actually"
If you remember, leg man made a video kicking the wall for 12 minutes
I reacted to it,
then he made a video kicking Pewdiepie's face for 12 minutes,
it got flagged for hate speech.
*wheezing*
Let's watch the video, it's extremely emotional
your video, "me brofooting a picture of Pewdiepie
for 12 minutes and 29 seconds"
was flagged for review, upon review
we've determined that it violates our guidelines
we've removed it from Youtube and assigned a * headphone users be warned*
COMMUNITY GUIDELINES STRIKE * i warned thou*
or temporary penalty to your account
reason: violation of youtube's policy on hate speech
the goal of my content is always to entertain
thank you, Youtube, finally, for striking down on hate speech
I've been waiting for them to finally take actions upon these dreadful acts
of brOFOOTING
this does, in fact, open up the discussion of "what really counts as hate speech?"
clearly, Youtube, if Youtube thinks this is hate speech.
Where does the line draw? they seem, it seems all over the place
you could say.
It seems we have quite a foot of trouble- that's not the expression
but I tried, at least
on other social media platforms,
you can get banned for "hate speech"
by, uh, making a cruel joke to your friend, perhaps.
Uh, I know that happens on Twitter, and I know that happens on Twitch,
but on Youtube we haven't really seen a lot of hate speech violations, uh
being, being striked
so does this mean that they're gonna strike in more on hate speech on Youtube?
if Youtube is doing more strikes against "hate speech"
and that line is being blurred and that means,
that it could potentionally change the entire website.
We have- previously, the site has just been runned by a
community, sort of a, repercussion to things, you have iDubbbz
making content cops, you have other youtubers critisizing eachother
when stepping over the line, because Youtube itself
is literally just another apple dangling in front of you
of the next greedy thing and the next greedy move you can make to further your channel
but, then, at least, there's some community repercussion if you do it
or, at least, excessively
lets say you keep begging for likes or...
Boasting with money in front of kids,
and ermm..
I don't know, making
sexual awkward content and
shit in general.
People are gonna call you out on it
Does this mean you can't do that anymore?
Or you can't criticize other people?
Or you can't even brofoot people?
WHERE DOES THE LINE DRAW?
That's always a question when it comes to YouTube.
Well I don't know. Neither do you.
anyone knows.
*Pew sounds*
next news in PEW News EVERYBODY,
Drake played fortnite. Are you ahh-
"Drake played fortnite?"
Oh my God!
Drake play- are you kidding me right now!
Drake- "Aw yeah that my thing"
We live in a crazy world guys.
I am sorry. I just had to reflect upon the news there for a second.
I know I'm not supposed to I know I am supposed to remain biased-
*laughs*
I know I am supposed to remain biased
and not have my own opinion on the show
which I don't have by the way. I am completely neutral
politically and all ever sense ever.
But drake played fortnite!
That is just absolutely crazy!
That is off the balls to the walls.
Can you believe this?
I like how all the news media organizations, yeah that's right I am calling you out.
None of them mentioned Ninja, which is the guy who actually had the stream. *read headline*
It's like no well
Ninja is pretty damn big himself
He recently became the biggest
person on Twitch..?
I think he has the most followers. ._.
So apparently the stream was the biggest stream from a
that wasn't from a tournament.
And was from a personal perspective.
You keep seeing more and more records being broken in the streaming industry.
And it really makes me feel like
yeah, "I probably should keep streaming."
Too bad I am banned forever from streaming at any social platform because if you
I once tried to cross a bridge..
and it didn't go well.
I am joking of course ahh.. I
still have s**t internet. I am not.
I wished that was a joke.
I have legit been waiting 7 months to get better internet.
But apparently I live in a black hole.
So I can't
but also, you're playing the
most popular game right now which is fortnite
which I deliberately don't wanna play
because I am so tired of battle royales.
And then you have this rapper which I
think is the softest rapper of all time.
Basically the Ellen degeneres of rapping.
I love rap music but I honestly think
Drake, I don't really understand his appeal.
It's not just my type of rap. You have these two things..
and it combined turns into the biggest stream of all time.
And here I am being
salty about it but atleast trying to benefit
a little bit
from the bread crumbs that are left
in a clickbait title
by bringing up this topic.
without really giving any form of
uhhhh,
personal input
or adding any value to the conversation.
Welcome to Pew News everybody.
Moving on.. to the next segment.
Brad is going to-
tell us the weather.
take it Brad. Go ahead.
show them the what the we
ther
is. (Brad) "Salty as shi- " *gets cut off*
*Pew News intro*
Diversity.
Big topic.
Controversial.
We want a workforce
that is more diverse.
So we don't discriminate
against a group of people.
By discriminating against white people.
Diversity...
Recently, you may have heard YouTube is getting sued.
or at least Google.
For allegedly refusing to hire white and Asian men
Now, Google is no stranger to being sued
It'd happened alot of times,
and I'm not
by any means trying to make a bigger thing than it is.
Well actually I am going to do that.
*laughs*
A lot of times when I see these lawsuits
I uh, sort of..
Think...
Oh this is...
opportunistic.
Not a big deal.
But I saw these headlines,
and I found it very, very interesting.
Just to run through the article very briefly,
"Google allegedly got sued for pressuring recruiters
for people hiring,
*at-a company*
to only look for female, black, and Hispanic or Latinx applicants."
They also claimed that Google implemented "clear and irrefutable policies"
Meant to exclude "White and Asian men in an attempt"
To increase the company's overall diversity
Which then led to this person- this cruiter being fired
in November 2017..
Google responded saying: "We have a clear policy to hire candidates based on their merit, not their identity"
Uh... the problem with diversity is you're walking a thin line.
It's almost a paradox
that by increasing diversity
you are discriminating,
by trying to not discriminate.
And I'm not necessarly against diversity
Personally, I run a very very small business I don't need to care about any of these... things.
Efficency matters more to me than anything else.
Whether you're a male, female, sex, sexual orientation, race, age,
it doesn't have any impact for me,
but you have a big company like google.. It would be ignorant to at least not take these things into count
google diversity says *reads headline*
I'm sorta stuck in between here, sorta at to not agree with this statement
but at the same time you're also excepting the fact
that someone's idea matters more because of their skin color which,
in today's society is 100% true. *small laughter*
The reason why I find this article
and lawsuit so interesting is because
there's been so much pressure on companies
to have more diversity
to have more- especially in hollywood where are all the movies and all that stuff.
And it's a shameful act to be just all white male
in a meeting or stuff like that.
BUT-
when I see this article I feel like this marks a moment
where we finally hit the other end of the spectrum,
where we're actually discriminating in an attempt to not discriminate.
It's sort of the others,
we reached the others side of the fence
and I'm curious if this is the breaking of the bubble
that's finally happening.
I think that there's an issue with a lot of good ideas that get clouded by the fact that
you have to appear good instead of doing good.
Imagine how many question your abillity in the workforce based on your skin color,
at least having to doubt it now when these sort of things comes out-
that people potentially hire you because of increasing of diversity
and not unfitting a quota rather than hiring you because you're the right person for the job
to me that seems racist and that's why I think we finally come across the circle
and maybe now we can actually talk about these ideas and discuss them
in a level headed manner instead of just yelling "racist" at each other
but then again who am I. *laughs*
"How I Got A Job At Buzzfeed?"
there's also this "Onion" article that recently came out
"New Workplace Diversity Initiative Kills One White Employee Every Hour On The Hour Until More Minority Candidates Hired"
How progressive.
Makes me really happy to see..
THAT WAS IT FOR THIS WEEK'S, "pew news"
*pretending a watcher* "pew I love pew news I learn so much"
buy the mugs guys *background clap*
and you can become "don't be broke, be woke everybody and buy a mug" that's right.
I'm Anders Coopers and that was pew news goodbye.
