>Thread posted yesterday about Arin removing the word "nigga" from a decade old video >All the top comments on the video were about it >Remember thread today and check out the comments section again to see if there were any funny new ones >These are the only two comments that are still there from yesterday
Arin is deleting comments lmao
>inb4 phone poster
I got bored and just looked up the vid on my phone I wasn't expecting anything interesting like this to be found
I know he hasn't made anything good/animated in years but Jesus user
Zachary Rivera
i think the mobilefag is complaining about that gamegrumps guy who went too shit after john left but who the fuck knows these days, can never tell 100% with the outrage mob types.
Hunter Mitchell
I'm not trying to start an outrage mob I just thought it was funny/interesting and I wanted to share it
Noah Walker
But why? Even with how utterly cucked the Grumps fanbase is, would any of them actually just be like "You know I used to like Arin, but now that I realized he said "nigga" in Metal Gear Awesome over a fucking decade ago, I don't like him anymore." ESPECIALLY when he's said worse even more recent than that and hasn't done anything about those, his fans still intact. What a tard still so far up his own ass.
>safe brand >is constantly making jokes about cumming into Dan's ass
they're dying anyway, they can barely get 300k views per vid, unless MM2 (which is giving them a huge viewing boost) helps them out which I doubt since they have 2 15 minutes episodes of them sucking ass on 1 level that Ross made.
30 minutes no progress is not a good series, on top of that the viewership has dropped 50% between episode 1 and 2 despite 2 being on trending.
Compare that to just last year they were pulling 4 million on MM1 episodes. And you gotta remember Mario Maker is their number on all time highest rated series and they can't pull good numbers, not only that but Arin isn't playing it up, he sounds old and tired, there's no comedy anywhere to be had it's just screaming and/or making creepy sex jokes.
They need new blood to come in and swap out Arin and Dan with other hosts or add them to the duo because these two old farts can't fucking hack it anymore.
Easton Wood
Arin runs a company. It's likely a social media intern of some sort is the one doing the deleting.
Kayden Russell
>I don't know what gamegrump is God I'm already feeling old
They're attempting to be "safe" entertainment for kids by YT standards. Problem is kids don't like safe content catered for 5 year old babies, they like when Ninja screams "fuck!" while playing something on stream.
Often "child"- or "family-friendly" actually means "angry soccer mom-friendly".
Isaac Powell
But profiting off of racism over and over again and getting away with it by simply waving a simple platitude is even worse
Juan Myers
No its not. If you clean up history, you can never learn from it. And those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Levi Scott
I wouldn't let any child watch gamegrumps unless they had a dent the size of a softball in their head it's an exceptional level of stupid and crass, it doesn't belong anywhere near kids it's preteen at best and no teenager is going to watch fucking gamegrumps
He still has fag in mga 1 can even censor right, it was fine uncensored it was part of the language back then. It wasn't intentional racism, UNLIKE HIS MEI LING INTERPRETATION.
Jackson Kelly
>But profiting off of racism So what, just because people were ignorant back then means nobody should be allowed to discuss and view it objectively as adults now?
What the fuck do you think is going to happen if Song of the South ever got re-released, user? The entirety of the Civil Rights movement is going to be undermined and those corporate fat cats will try owning slaves?
Jaxson Hill
Good, yelling "ECCCHHH" isn't humor and Dan is best boy.
James Flores
dumbass phone poster zoomer fucking shit
Robert Powell
do you sincerely think racism was ignorant back then
Leo Stewart
Ignorant to the majority of them? No, of course not.
Retroactively viewed as ignorant? Absolutely. Justifying their views now contributes to the problem that you're bitching about.
I picture you gritting your teeth as you typed this out
It's not a big deal I just thought it was interesting that people mentioning the censoring bothered him so much he went out of his way to delete comments on a decade old video
Daniel Bailey
>Arin says a stupid criticism >Jon argues with him about it and they both make jokes
>Arin says a stupid criticism >"Yeah"
There's no dynamic with Dan. Even if you don't like Jon's humor at least he didn't just nod his head at everything Arin said. It causes the show to be "Arin bitches about a game for 10 minutes and occasionally there's humor"
Joshua Johnson
Don’t give a shit about game grumps but I wanna say >Jon uploads a video every month now >it’s either exercise or him doing other random shit >the jokes and reactions aren’t as over the top anymore I don’t even care that it isn’t games anymore, at least he was still funny when watching movies
Camden Johnson
I did like his New England video. It felt like his old Normal Boots ones from a decade ago where he would talk to random people and be a huge smartass. Him getting digs in on the female fishmonger was true to form, but everything else is... hackneyed? I don't know. It's not Jon as he was, and now that we're all grown up his humor is too different from my humor. Space Ace was his last good one.
Adrian Gutierrez
Imagine being afraid of saying a single word.
Noah Parker
How poetic would it be if Game Grumps died (which it hopefully will, soon) & all their fans went to the people that Arin pushed away because he was either offended by or felt threatened by their superiority? Would people like Oney and SuperMega just get an influx of all the Grumps' old subs?
Hudson Lewis
No you're a faggot looking for reactions
Juan Williams
who do you think his audience is nowadays
Kevin Long
lol guess that explains why supermega bailed.
Christopher Perry
It wasn't even the true N-word , if it ends with er than yeah that would be justified. But still why bother with a decade old video that barely anyone watches these days.
Xavier Carter
>censoring himself >not putting himself in the firing lines for cancel culture for being a dumb internet gamerkid which could ruin his career >maybe changing his ethics and feeling the videos flippant use is inappropriate
Sorry he doesn't dwell Yea Forums as a job and shitpost. There's some level of maturity that is expected of public people, and most the people who would complain about this would never actually use it out loud or if it could damage you since you're weaklings.
Point is, changing your own content, regardless of your reasoning, is not censorship. Get over it.
Cameron Foster

Cameron Garcia
Have you missed the last decade? This is the new norm - people have their careers destroyed and their lives ruined because of baseless accusations or vaguely offensive comments made years ago. People scramble to scrub their twitters and facebooks of anything that could bite them in the ass, teachers walk on eggshells because they're all one 'microaggression' from being fired, it's fucking ridiculous.
Anthony Clark
Imagine, being afraid of simply saying a word.
Josiah Cooper
Announcing reports is also bannable.

Dylan Morales
Hi Arin
Chase Smith
>Point is, changing your own content, regardless of your reasoning, is not censorship. Changing your own content because you're paranoid that some random faggot on the internet is going to start a fucking twitter outrage campaign against you or start flagging all your youtube videos is censorship. It's self-censorship, but it's not done out of creative choice, but out of fear.
And once you start you never stop, because you've now set the precedent that making a video with X, Y, or Z is unacceptable. Expect to see them start retroactively going through old GG episodes to censor or cut out other stuff.
Cooper Scott
should've put it on Yea Forums they would've given you a more lively thread probably
not a good one but lively
Alexander Ortiz
I just rewatched it a few months ago and it still had it. Shit what a joke.
William Butler
How can I rest my own balls on my forehead? That sounds like a neat trick.
Leo Hernandez
While you make some very pragmatic points I feel you are missing the issue that some people may see with this. If an artist is going back and removing stuff from their content because they feel pressured to do so from the crowds that dictate what is right and wrong then it makes people question if they really are doing it because their views have changed and no longer align with the content that they made in the past or they are just changing it because they feel pressured from the reactionaries and do it to avoid any potential negative reaction from them. It may not be censorship but it could potentially be a case of suppression.
It is 100% to avoid criticism and negative attention. I cannot believe people ITT are even defending Arin, I really thought Yea Forums was better but I guess he has zoomer tier bootlickers here too now sadly.
Mason Sanchez
>And once you start you never stop, because you've now set the precedent that making a video with X, Y, or Z is unacceptable. Expect to see them start retroactively going through old GG episodes to censor or cut out other stuff. This. There's hours and hours and hours of Arin yucking it up and making racist jokes with Jon and Dan over the years. The racist Japanese impressions alone could probably fill an hours-long compilation. Expect to see them gradually purged.
Jack Turner
I imagine most if not all the Jon videos will be deleted.
>LOOK AT THESE BLACKS >the multiple numbers of times they obviously censored Jon saying nigger or some form of it
Aiden Wood
>it's a "off topic shit is allowed so long as it barely relates to cartoons" episode
i think's good that we have a nuanced view. not everythings a shouting match YOU NIGGER.
Charles Perez
Ego/Arin threads have been a thing for probably longer than you've been browsing. He started out as an animator despite not doing it now.
Anyone that still blindly defends arin for any reason is either an ignorant zoomer or an actual retard. It's a pretty well known fact that's he's a piece of shit at this point.
Wyatt Turner
So expand the discussion to the broader topic of artist self-censorship. We've seen plenty of it over the last decade.
ex. Last Fall the guy making 'Follow The Leader' was hit with some random internet accusations of cultural appropriation. and in response quit a 4 1/2 year long comic series a dozen pages from finishing the story.
Xavier Ortiz
>that dude that seriously called metal gear awesome a fucking masterpiece
Isaac Thompson
Its not a masterpiece but it's certainly a big part of internet culture during that time period. All the popular awesome videos were.
Charles Cruz
The music really fucking sells the clip actually. Original isn't even that funny anymore since I'm so used to the score being added.
Jacob Ward
That was 10 years ago dickhead
Mason Lewis
Your point? Janny would have deleted this by now if it wasn't supposed to be here.
Juan Butler
Why did he make Campbell black anyway? Looking back it really makes no sense.
Benjamin Lewis
They're trying to be work safe to avoid demonitizaton by youtube's ass backwards algorithms. They've even introduced a no cursing rule. I'm legitimately curious how long they expect to last given that the vast majority of Arin's "comedy" is thinly veiled allusions to his closeted homosexuality. Dude can't stop talking about penises.
Mason Harris
Cringe
Connor Lee
I fucking hate nu-internet so much, just let it die already and bring back Web 1.0
Levi Cooper
I'll be honest though, I love Dan's comfy nostalgia videos of old Sierra games.
Are there even any good LPers on YouTube anymore? I still watch Oney once in a while if nothing prevails.
Ethan Ward
All of oney's shit is good. Supermega can be hit or miss. Vinny/Joel highlights are good.
That's about it right now. Unless someone can point me towards any let's play channel that is similar to those in terms of humor cause I ain't found shit.
Jeremiah White
Yeah but it really really doesn't hold up. It's just XD randum humor and "black voice funny voice". Calling it a master piece or even good is a huge stretch. Censoring it is retarded though since the whole thing would offend anyone digging through his shit to find uncensored slurs.
Lincoln Jackson
It probably doesn't hold up to you because it's not behind fifteen million layers of irony like all the hip cool humor zoomers like.
Justin Harris
bro I was all over newgrounds when this shit was coming out, it has not aged well.
I'm still fucking salty about that. What kind of faggot drops a project THAT close to finishing? It'd be like if ATLA got to the end of Season 3 and Brkye released a statement apologizing for cultural appropriation of Asian aesthetics and scrapped production of the Sozin's Comet finale.
Ryder James
There's several video-recordings of him and Suzie on stream saying "Nigger" repeatedly

This thread was posted 9 hours ago. Did the use of the word Janny really trigger your autism this hard?
Brayden Cooper
Why is editing this video the main thing he's worried about instead of the fact that he chanted nigger violently after dropping off a black friend somewhere. The way he uses it in this video is totally innocent compared to that.
Isaiah Powell
>I know he hasn't made anything good/animated in his life ftfy
yeah, and james gunn will never get that career back
Blake Nelson
the only thing i can really see taking GG down would be if nintendo had enough with them and took monetizaiton from all of their nintendo videos
Jordan Martinez
i forget. did he stop animating because people hated Pokeawesome 2 or was it because Suzy made him quit?
Logan Watson
>would any of them actually just be like "You know I used to like Arin, but now that I realized he said "nigga" Have you not been on the internet in like, the past year? They absolutely would do that.
Gabriel Morales
He stopped animating because he's a lazy dillweed
Jordan Young
that was really before people with talent were big on the internet arin's fame was ultimately a product of its time
Anthony Phillips
He and Suzie openly admitted to saying nigger behind a black guys back before. Not even joking.
He stopped animating because GG became a cash cow and an opportunity for him to sit on his ass and do nothing but play games.
Christian Powell
It really should stop Nostalgia Critic though. He literally swept the fact they had a rapist on the team under the rug.

>they're still coming after him "They're" not coming after him because "they" are his fanbase in the first place. he already has legions of people that will jump in to defend his shit from a decade ago without having to do it himself. The only good this does is showing everyone he's immensely paranoid.
Ayden Walker
I get that its his work and he can do what he wants with it but...
The same people who are still seething that Jontron isn't on the show anymore and that Arin isn't making cartoons anymore. It's been a decade it's time to get over it.

Still love his Ocarina of Time video. Much respect to him for saying what needed to be said in regards to that game.
Jeremiah Jenkins
By your retarded logic, releasing any revamped, remade or remastered piece of media is 1984-tier truth burning. But that's not the case.
Kevin Ortiz
faggots are still arguing over who shot first, even though in the original cut greedo didnt shoot at all, if that aint 1984, then i dont know what is
Jace Powell
he contradicts himself in the video though
Christopher Foster
Its about the principle of the thing.
Ethan Sanchez
I was scrolling by and misread Arin as 'Arlo', was a stunning and funny moment while it lasted.
Nicholas Phillips
The unedited version is available everywhere. His attempts to self-censor are pretty futile, and he should know this above anyone else.
Jayden Gomez
pressure from youtube advertisement monetization is generally a strong motivator.
>But that's not the case. It literally is, it's just on a smaller scale, in this case a much smaller scale few would give a shit about. If you're releasing a remaster, remake or re-edit call it as such, doing anything else is truth burning by definition.

Doug Walker was surprisingly smart during the whole ordeal. He kept quiet. And without costant reminder of the controversy, his viewers just kept on watching his videos out of habit. Then the whole thing blew over and it was back to business as usual.
Nolan Sanchez
Reminder that if you impersonate Arin and go "nananana-nananana-whatthefuckisitpleasestopwastingtime" every time you open a big chest, you're part of the problem. Also reminder that you should never film yourself being deliberately bad at a game you spent a year making a review video of just to prove your own flawed points.
Isaac Morris
>Lupa refuses to take responsibility for stirring up shit every fucking time >Marzgurl starts witch hunts to get people blacklisted from their industry based off of rumors yeah, no, these people are worse than doug
Mason Roberts
Arin has a huge boner for censorship, news at 11. he's a new-age liberal Danny on the other hand is an oldschool hippie who doesn't cotton to that shit. see also how they've handled youtube's recent fascist bullshit
Jacob Powell
I stopped watching AVGN when James said that shit verbatim about the three stooges, possibly the only media from the era that it doesn't apply to.
Joshua Thomas
I'm hoping that happens to projared. especially since he's not only innocent but basically the victim. at least according to his side of things, and there's no proof either way but his story sounds fucking plausible. didnt stop the grumps from immediately throwing him under the bus and deleting their collabs without any proof.
Josiah Stewart
from what i've heard, Holly and Heidie were basically fighting over him although I still think him announcing his divorce via twitter was just about the most ass-backwards way to do things
Christian Morris
The best I can say about Projared is that, at his worst, he's basically a creepy-looking sex pervert who has a habitual need to stick his dick in crazy and an intense aversion to conflict. None of that is enough to condemn him for life, but hopefully having the witch hunt on him will encourage him to find better ways to relieve stress in the future than sending out dick pics.
You must be new here, Back in the dawn of the Internet 2.0 when Flash games where popular and Youtube was on its infancy. there was a place called Newgrounds. There animators could make their own cartoons using flash and one of the most popular was Arin Hanson AKA Ego Raptor. He made videos parodying games and animes he later retired from animated and made a youtube lets play channel called GameGrumps.
Jordan Turner
If youtube ever star demonetizing videos with the word Penis, Cock or Weenier GameGrumps is over, Arin can't spend 5 minutes without taking about sucking dick. youtube.com/watch?v=2ximy-88QfQ
>Watching various videos by several YouTubers >They're all censoring their curse words even though they never used to I think this is some YouTube shit actually. Like they're getting demonetized for saying "fuck" or some shit.
Jacob Thomas
>the internet 15 years ago was like da wild wess XD we're all newfags since the eternal september
Jayden King
youtube's subscription service and original content aren't pulling in enough money, so they're bending over to more family friendly advertising companies.
James Mitchell
How old are you guys? his new stuff is top notch when there aren't another people on it. The Work safety and skull vodka videos were great. And even the shitty exercise videos were better than anything game grumps made in the last 3 years
Isaiah Butler
>I think this is some YouTube shit actually. Explicitly, yes. Youtube has made a significant crack down as of late on any videos with ANY cursing in it as they have deemed it, "not advertiser friendly." Content on youtube is being stifled because advertisers refuse to have their advertisements shown on videos which may be even remotely crass. I can guess why advertisers might be moving in this direction, but it's a guess. Sometimes, it's google saying that a video is not advertiser friendly, even when advertisers might not care or actually WANT to put ads on a video but told that the video is ineligible.
It's a case by case basis, but the real short story here is that google is turning youtube into a platform for advertisers. Not for the users. The users are secondary.
Blake Morales
EH? h is kind of a dick to everyone so i don't really care. Besides he clearly dug his own grave on that one.
Jeremiah Gomez
god he was so cool on newgrounds back in the day. he was an untouchable god of art who's every word was pure gold.
Kayden Phillips
Suzie seriously just casually dropped that hard R, what the fuck
>"Arin bitches about a game for 10 minutes and occasionally there's humor" Skyward Sword in a nutshell. Since Dan never played it himself, he pretty much agreed with all the BS Arin spewed, like, it's not the best Zelda but Arin did it some major injustice.
Juan Gutierrez
Maybe not humor, but I love Super Gaming Bros (SGB). Somecallmejohnny (who has his own channel and is the boss of SGB) is a cool dude to watch.
Except you can still watch the original even if a remaster is made. In this he's removing/changing the original itself.
Brayden Morales
Or, you could make the smart decision: refuse to apologize, and tell anyone who throws a fit that you don't care, and their opinion doesn't matter (unless they directly pay into your organization, or own it).
Levi Jenkins
damn, feels like a totally different person made this. Modern Arin sucks.
Ethan Hernandez
Literally nothing is worse than historical revisionism. It is the tool of tyrants and dictators.
Jace Morris
Darn shame
Jaxon Gray
The Projared shit as far as I could read was just both sides imploding and being assholes to each other, there was no 'right' side, only Ross who technically already jumped overboard before it all got out. Don't take dick pics and don't stick said dick in crazy, that's all it takes.
Ryan Stewart
>Since Dan never played it himself, he pretty much agreed with all the BS Arin spewed Since Dan has barely played any video game besides Zelda this became 99% of all Grump videos after he joined. The back and forth between Arin and Jon was great and he was rarely allowed to get away with this kind of horseshit.
Jordan Bailey
>Welcome to Golden Grhams I'm Arin and this is my best and only host Daniel Danielson. Today we are going to play a game I will probably hat. >And one I will form no opinion on, but I will tell some stories like the time I...
Jaxson Rodriguez
Well that would be cool but... His content is hosted on sites he has no control over, if he keeps said things up he could be flagged easily. They could lose a lot more than just YT revenue, it just wouldn't be a good situation to double down. Again, I know people are saying "well what if it's insincere?" but I generally believe his actions speak for him as he seems to ally himself with a lot of progressive politics. He may of dropped N bombs on stream with Suzie (or I thought it was just Suzie that dropped them?) but I think this is a step in a better direction even then. The N bomb in the vid doesn't even make it funnier or is really comedic, just feels like edgy teenager "look how cool I am!".
Luis Lee
>deleted OOF
Kevin Kelly
It's because of YouTube's new policy. They can (and will) demonitize you for saying any swear words.
Jose Kelly
It's unfounded outrage anyway. The line the bird says is more than just "Nigga", and everything the bird says is still in the same Jim Crow accent. You aren't angry over a joke being censored and thus ruined, you're upset over the Nigger-word being censored, which I must say I'm surprised Arin spent this long without deleting it, considering how fucking far gone he is. I'm doubly surprised he didn't rewrite the entire joke; I'm GLAD he didn't, he'd be beyond redemption at that point.
>jokes about cumming into Dan's ass That is safe brand nowadays. Being gay is legal, and most of their revenue probably comes from queerbaiting their female fans between 12 and 17, just like Supernatural does for women 15 and up.
Wyatt Hall
>>That is safe brand nowadays. Being gay is legal, and most of their revenue probably comes from queerbaiting their female fans between 12 and 17, just like Supernatural does for women 15 and up.
gay has nothing to do with it, if it was a female/male duo and there were constant jokes about sucking him off or fingering her while playing MM it wouldn't be brand safe dweeb, gay has fuck all to do with it.
Jace Powell

Might be too autistic for you but Chuggaconroy is a delight with in depth commentary about the gameplay, history and trivia about any game he plays.
Josiah Brown
>There's some level of maturity that is expected of public people Ye? Then where was this so called "level of maturity" some years ago? Honestly, that is one of the weakest arguments, guess years ago when him and all the other e-celebs were yet still establishing themselves, you know, building their audiences often on the back of that type of humor, back when they were saying nigger left and right, nigga this, nigga that, "level of maturity" didn't matter much at all, huh? I mean, there are plenty of e-celebs who thrive their "celebness" on spouting shit that will get tagged with the wrong think/problematic™ hammer tomorrow, will they also have to pull a rollback censor flip flop when the time comes? All to please the fabled, mighty, "level of maturity" in the eyes of public masses, the same eyes and ears that witnessed them crossing the social line just a week ago.
Witness, their true selves! Just imagine how often and naturally the say and would call a nigger, nigger. Behind the internet of course!
>JewWario. That's why he killed himself
And there it is, once again, complete with the, [oy vey, slide it under the rug!] rundown. And there were ytbers defending and dramatically crying over that RAT. Well, now they look like stupid clowns.
>Point is, changing your own content, regardless of your reasoning, is not censorship. Yeah, its cowardice and stupidity, selling out your old fans to appeal to fickle 5 year olds.
Charles Bennett
also reminds me in the Steve-O Mad World episode Steve-O literally said they were saying racial slurs before recording. lol
Nathan Sullivan
Why would anybody care about old racist fans?
Adam Morgan
One of the appeals for LP for me is watching the players mature from their early videos to later ones, in editing and mindset. SGB (and Brainscratch Comms, funny enough) are weird exceptions, in that watching people develop and grow is depressing. >Elliot and Matt grew to be more woke, with Elliot letting himself go after finding a fat GF and Matt going from morbidly obese cable man to weirdly thin cable man who can't stop badly analyzing shit >Lewis and Ted somehow grew more insufferable over time, and became dismissive of criticism >Ryan's depression grew into borderline misanthropy >but Johnny, beacon of most channels, comes off best by staying static, as he starts humble and grounded (but Sonic autistic) and grows humble and grounded (with slightly less Sonic autism)
Benjamin Taylor
Who the fuck caaaaaaaares. It's not censorship when you do it to yourself, it's called editing and every single script has it done. This literally does not matter.
Dominic Martinez
The difference is that Dan pokes fun at Arin for getting worked up instead of for being wrong. Don't get triggered just because someone you don't agree with wasnt argued down.
Lucas Garcia
Yea, how dare they provide context and allow for discussion instead of just deleting everything and pretending it never happened
Jacob Kelly
This. I still can't believe there are people that prefer the Dan/Arin combo. Load up pretty much any old Jon video and you notice the difference right away.
Nolan Roberts
It may be hard for you to understand, lil' zoom, but there was a time when you could say words purely in a descriptive sense and not be crucified for their racist connotations. Context actually mattered! There was a difference between saying "I remember that time my friend said nigger" and "that guy was a useless fucking nigger".
Jacob Cox
user, they literally explain that the cartoons are a product of their time and that censoring or changing them to be more PC would be lampshading/pretending those prejudices never existed.
David Brown
> boy I hope nobody finds that time where I said a naughty word almost 15 years ago at a time where trashy/explicit humor was the norm better edit this video > OH NO EVERYONE KNOWS I SAID NIGGER NOW HOW COULD HAVE HAPPENED?!
You're stuck on GG five or seven years ago, Dan isn't like that anymore. He's more than gotten used to Arin bullshitting about stuff because he's seen first-hand how much of a fuck-up he can be whenever he complains about a game explaining too much or not explaining enough or whatever.
Luke Lewis
Has someone linked to the vid with suzy saying arin had to say nigger 30 times after driving with a black guy? Ive been waiting for that to bite him in his hollywood cock sucking ass.
Oliver Mitchell
Nobody is saying racism never existed or that it didn’t happen, it’s not historical revisionism moron
Adrian Miller

Shill this while mentioning how he doesn't seem to hire black people maybe? Faggots who suck the most PC cocks should be destroyed by their own hand.
Does that mean Ralph Bakshi's 70's work, Boondocks, South Park, old Disney movies and countless other works are no longer allowed to make money?

Here's the thing: If people wanted to ostracize him for saying nigga on MGA, they would have done so by now. He's certainly popular enough that SOMEONE would have tried.
But instead by doing this, he's caused a Streisand effect on himself and now people are going out of their way to acknowledge what he said on a decade old video while ALSO scouring streams and other footage to find instances of him saying nigger. In an attempt to avoid controversy, he's actually stirred it up.

Pat and Paige streams are still a lot of fun. Woolie Versus LPs on his channels can be great. His Katarmi and Third Birthday have some classic Woolie moments.
But I do still miss them, too. At least they didn't just exit the scene entirely.

>Metal Gear Awesome >Arin's "masterpiece"
That's objectively Girlchan in Paradise and everybody knows it!
William Barnes
Not on YouTube apparently.
Kevin Taylor
? He's just abiding by YouTube rules, someone probably reported his video and it got demonetized.
Brody Anderson
But he still uses slurs and has racist jokes on a bunch of his other animation and Awesome series videos that are all on YT.
Robert Williams
Well, that just brings up an issue as old as digital updates: people hate it when content is edited without a good forewarning or explanation. People bitched about Skullgirls removing some (animation-related, if I remember right) panty shots because the creators thought being cheekily coy about removing them was funny, just like people bitched about Arin and Jon breaking up because the Grumps kept their mouths shut and Jon was NDA'd. If content creators gave some explanation, even one butchered by contractual obligations, it's much better than trying to independently edit things without so much as a "here's why I did that".
Game Grumps has to 100% politically correct, even if it means Arin and Dan have to parrot every single current year opinion and sell out anything they ever thought or believed of their own volition. It's always shitty to see people who are so desperate to get the approval of loud minorities that they change who they are like a dog being trained.
Noah Thomas
His new videos are censored. He himself still curses but the editor has to censor it. Lots of YouTubers who used to curse openly have their curses bleeped out now. I noticed it starting about a week ago. When it comes to older videos getting censored, I have to assume it's been reported.
Alexander White
Compare the number of genuine laughs he has back in Jon Grumps to now.
Cameron Lewis
>If content creators gave some explanation, even one butchered by contractual obligations, it's much better than trying to independently edit things without so much as a "here's why I did that". I don't know if I agree with that. We need only look at what Pokemon is doing at the moment to see that if content creators give a reason, that just gives their audience the ability to call bullshit on said reason.
Angel Mitchell
That fucking Jon Jeff bridges impersonation is probably one of the hardest times I ever laughed.
Jack Morris
what video is that in?
Wyatt Cox
Nigga/nigger is the best word. Everyone who avoided using it in life is going to hell 100%
Camden Gutierrez
>plz no bully me for phoneposting stop being such an insecure faggot
Juan Smith
I like the Game Society Pimps, or Gamesociety now that Jewtube made them change their name. Oney plays is god tier and arguably the best option out there too. Super Mega can be funny on occasion.
Angel Morales
what video does he say that?
Colton Wright
One of the Pokemon emerald ones. Should be able to find it on YouTube.
