Counterpoint: I only enjoy said content because it’s free. I’m not willing to pay for it, and I’d rather stop watching altogether if it were subscription only.

It makes me sad that there are kids today who wouldn’t know who Bob Ross is. So thank goodness for stuff like this.

That’s cute... I’ve use the internet long before Pewdiepie was born. There wasn’t any ads back then. When ads start showing up so often. That’s when I decided Internet should be free of Ads. Forever.

There’s an underlying entitlement to profit and success that I don’t like with this attitude. When the consumers change their behavior, it’s your paradigm that needs to change, not their behavior. So I get Youtube Red, but they also need to get that maybe people won’t like the change and may have backlash.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Advertising has always, since its inception, been an opt-in choice by the consumers. We are not in any way obligated or forced to be exposed to advertising.
When an ad comes on the TV, we can change the channel, or mute the TV. When an ad comes on the radio we can change the…

I will stop using AdBlock when sites stop using obnoxious adds.

It’s difficult for me to care when a multimillionaire talks about the damaging effects of people not giving him money.

Some real compelling points from a YouTube millionaire.

This kid writes like he’s going to be a washed up NFL punter in 10 years...

Well, there’s a lot of address here on a broader national level, and on the specifics on this event. How do you guys not get this by now? Racism is the norm. Everywhere. All over the world. In fact, most manifestations of contemporary American/European racism are absurdly tame and largely theatrical, when compared to…

Fucking comic book movies.

Another idiot who has never faced the reality of a majority black school.

Greg Howard’s writing has several flaws. His examples are pretty misleading, for one. He talks about how Sandra Bland was “killed”? Well sure, by herself and by negligence of jail staff. What authority exactly was it that killed Trayvon Martin? George Zimmerman was no authority figure. Use accurate examples if you’re…

Greg, why don’t you become a teacher at a predominantly black school?

My kid wouldn't be some asshole who disrespected their teacher. Your belief that kids should be able to get away with anything is horrifying. She deserved what she got.

Because teenagers are the most reliable people in the world and never ever would say anything untrue to help a friend/get on tv/get out of trouble. This is the same generation that tries to send swat teams to peoples houses when they get bored. all of them need real choke slam once in a while. not a struggle/fall over…

“I was shocked at how she flew across the floor.”

I would have been out of my mind if this happened in my suburban, lily white high school.

Meh, I feel like doing the same thing to almost every teenager I see.
