Second topic I've seen today about this and both of you didn't watch the video at all apparently? The entire video is about explaining why he isn't going to apologize and that people are too sensitive about a simple joke.

I don't think you watched the video.

He did apologise and is concerned about suicide, he just denied the joke was transphobic and refused to delete it.

I've now watched the video twice because it was posted here twice, and both times I've watched it he literally shits on people complaining about his joke saying that it wasn't offensive and he isn't going to apologize for it.

It is extremely relevant. It establishes that he is a moron, so his stupid joke is more likely to have been done in poor judgement rather than with malicious intent.

That's like saying IDubbbz went after Tana Mongeau because she tried to shame him for using the N word ironically. Ethan and his affiliates aren't particularly known for being apologetic about anything like this, I don't see what changed.

People are so accustomed to saying "just ignore it" that it enables the type of people on Twitter to be obnoxious and accuse others of such things. I'm glad he stopped and tore it apart because it shows that it doesn't work on someone who can recognize it.

Like he said, being offended doesn't make the joke offensive by proxy.

No it's true.

He accused WSJ of faking an ad for coke of a video with n***** in the title.

Turns out they didn't fake it and he was totally wrong.

I remember that. Though I don't get the point in bringing it up. I mean, wow. He was wrong about something. Who gives a shit. Everyone is wrong sometimes. That said, the WSJ article was bullshit in the first place so while his conpiracy was wrong he was right in the "that WSJ article can go fuck itself" sense.

Sure, but most people's mistakes don't involve making a video that thousands of people will see and literally declaring war on a major news publication.

you're right, I didn't watch it. I still don't like the tone he took though. The whole "Maybe I'm ignorant and it is offensive, I dunno, explain it to me"

He should have just ignored these clowns, and if he did address them just come out and call them out for being the ridiculous human beings they are.
