It's all for show. Mark is actually a sensible and well-grounded guy but he is a people-person and he knows his audience well.
His series has been going on for quite some time. Over a year. First episode is dated Dec. 25th 2015.
These days Markiplier doesnt put on an act likem he did a few years ago. He has since evolved and those are his genuine reactions. I only know this cause I sometimes act the same way when I play lol
Here is an example.

That said, I'm a little disappointed with the in-game bobblehead ruining his voice. I mean, it's clearly based off him and added with his permission, should've just used something closer to the real deal. It doesn't sound remotely like him.
Can't really stand Pewdiepie tho.
I used to watch PewdiePie. His recent ordeal with Fiveer was a complete turn off for me. He encouraged people from another country to say something antisemetic regardless of the consequences.
Racism and discrimination are NEVER allowed to be jokes in the way he did it. I dont care how much someone tries to justify it, it is still insenitive and immoral. The same thing happens in high school where the popular kids make the other kids do horrible things because those kids are literally desparate to be included.
I saw that sort of thing happen every day at my old high school. There was this group of girls who would always take advantage of this one kid. They said they would may him $5 if he picked up a cigarette butt off the ground and eat it. Anbd when he did it, they didn't give him the money obviously. It was completely disgusting.
People like that are wastes of space. I dont care how many subscribers he has, or how much money he makes (which on YouTube is probably a big fat ZERO since his content will probably never be family/advertiser friendly) there is NEVER an excuse for exploiting other peoples ignorance.
Is there a different way to use racism and discrimination as a joke?
Stop your trolling. Stop trying to derail my threads. You do this on EVERY thread I make. You are so immature and need to grow up. The point of that reply was to emphasize that what he did was wrong.
It isn't funny.
Reported.
Professional comedians write jokes as a profession.
PewdiePie is not a paid comedian, he is not taking special care to make a joke that is slightly off color. He chose a pair of men who to the average viewer would appear as middle eastern, and he told them to say "death to all jews". That is not a joke. Putting someone else at risk like he did was also screwed up. He got their account banned, then got banned 3 times himself as well as his PayPal account got banned, all for spreading an antisemetic message. It doesnt matter what his intent was. He should have known better than to do such a thing since he has had similar issues in the past with this sort of thing. He makes so many blatantly sexist and racist jokes in his videos and it is sickening. That website just like a million others has an agreement we all sign to conduct ourselves in a specific manner. He violated that agreement and should learn from his mistakes.
Experimental dude.
