What controversial comments has Pewdiepie made?
PewDiePie has landed himself in hot water numerous times over his career, but always bounces back (even if the mainstream media don't like it).
The biggest of these controversies occurred in September 2017, where he used a racial slur while live-streaming PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG). Pewds later uploaded an apology video where he stated; "I'm disappointed in myself because it seems like I've learned nothing from all these past controversies, [using the slur] was not okay. I'm really sorry if I offended, hurt or disappointed anyone with all of this. Being in the position that I am, I should know better."
Before this, in January 2017, Felix uploaded a video utilising the task-service website Fiverr, where he asked two people to hold up a sign that had another controversial term written on it. Felix fought back against the criticism, stating his intention was to "showcase how crazy the website was", not to use racial slurs for personal reasons.
In May 2018, Felix was once again in trouble, attracting hate for using a derogatory term in a YouTube video. Female Twitch streamer Alinity, who was the subject of the insult, responded by making a copyright claim against his video. Pewds later apologised for his words.
