So, really, the content 00:01:17.800 --> 00:01:20.700 is pretty much irrelevant. They just need a strong title 00:01:20.780 --> 00:01:21.820 no matter what. 00:01:21.820 --> 00:01:23.200 And I know what you're thinking. 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:25.640 You might be like "Ohkay, well Felix, you're on YouTube, 00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.140 everyone clicks-bait on YouTube, but you're doing the same thing." 00:01:28.300 --> 00:01:28.800 No. 00:01:28.800 --> 00:01:30.740 Not really. It's kinda different. 00:01:30.740 --> 00:01:33.260 First of all, YouTube monitors watch time. 00:01:33.260 --> 00:01:37.900 So, even if you have a clickbait video, and people don't actually watch it 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:39.340 It won't get as promoted. 00:01:39.340 --> 00:01:42.800 YouTube has been promoting watch time more than anything since 2014. 00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:45.600 Allegedly — that's what they say at least. 00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:48.600 It's the first thing that appears if you click on your analytics. 00:01:48.600 --> 00:01:52.740 Literally, you go to analytics, first thing that appears, watch time. 00:01:52.740 --> 00:01:54.920 A hundred and fifty thousand years. 00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:57.180 *chuckles* you guys spend watching my videos. 00:01:57.180 --> 00:01:59.260 That's just kinda sad, isn't it? 00:01:59.260 --> 00:02:01.760 But also, a very important distinction, 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.540 is that YouTube is entertainment. 00:02:04.700 --> 00:02:07.560 Media... is the fucking news. 00:02:07.660 --> 00:02:11.020 It's supposed to give you an objective standpoint 00:02:11.060 --> 00:02:14.320 on-- and tell people, what is going on out there, 00:02:14.320 --> 00:02:15.440 it's the truth, y'know. 00:02:15.440 --> 00:02:18.400 I think this is a bigger problem than a lot of people realise. 00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.560 Because it d-- it affects actual people. 00:02:21.580 --> 00:02:22.940 It affects reality. 00:02:22.940 --> 00:02:24.540 It affects people like ME. 00:02:24.540 --> 00:02:26.860 And I think that's why I've been bitching about it so much. 00:02:26.860 --> 00:02:29.900 Anyway, uhm, remember when the news was sent to your home? 00:02:30.200 --> 00:02:33.240 That was basically... subscription-based. 00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:35.920 So, the media would get paid regardless. 00:02:35.920 --> 00:02:38.100 So basically, they didn't have to clickbait. 00:02:38.540 --> 00:02:39.940 Uhh, to get paid. 00:02:40.020 --> 00:02:45.000 And that way you get a more unbiased... uhmm, objective news. 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:47.620 You could say, hey maybe you could actually get the truth. 00:02:47.620 --> 00:02:51.460 Instead of this where whoever yells the loudest, gets paid. 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:55.420 Now, 2017 is the year..it's gonna go bad for me. 00:02:55.420 --> 00:02:57.940 Alright, I'm just calling it out right now. 00:02:58.020 --> 00:03:01.040 You want, you--- get out before you can't. 00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:03.260 Because PewDiePie is... he's a badboy now. 00:03:03.260 --> 00:03:04.840 He's uhmm... he's a meanie. 00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:06.700 He's terrible.

Nice grab for views you hacks." 00:05:30.980 --> 00:05:33.460 I'm glad people at least realise 00:05:33.460 --> 00:05:38.180 And I'm, I'm really glad to see that the majority realise how bullshit these articles are. 00:05:38.180 --> 00:05:40.440 And that they fulfill no purpose, whatsoever 00:05:40.440 --> 00:05:42.320 than to tear down my name. 00:05:42.340 --> 00:05:44.120 To get some more clicks online. 00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:46.980 So basically, for those who don't know what happened, 00:05:46.980 --> 00:05:51.560 Uhmm, I was fucking around with this website, we can pay people 00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:52.520 to make messages. 00:05:52.520 --> 00:05:57.180 And most people said no to my request, there was a girl that was supposed to play 00:05:57.180 --> 00:05:59.880 hearthstone with me and I asked her to play roblox 00:05:59.880 --> 00:06:01.240 And she was like, no. 00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:04.040 And uhh, that's how she didn't fulfill the request. 00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:09.720 There was another person that was supposed to do a penis in a math graph 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:11.600 And they said no.... and 00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:14.260 Well, for some fucking reason, these Indian guys 00:06:14.260 --> 00:06:18.000 actually went ahead and wrote 'Death to All Jews' on a sign 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.580 Which, y'know, there's something funny about that. 00:06:21.280 --> 00:06:25.040 At least, y'know, it might be just my rude sense of humour 00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:27.160 but I think there's something funny about that. 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.920 And I don't think there's any actual anti-semitic thing 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.880 about it. Again, I think there's a difference between a joke 00:06:33.940 --> 00:06:37.420 and actual, like, fucking 'Death to All Jews' 00:06:37.420 --> 00:06:41.160 If I made a video, saying, 'Hey guys, uh, PewDiePie here, 00:06:41.940 --> 00:06:46.900 death to all jews.

I made fun of 00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:15.160 the mother running the channel 00:07:15.180 --> 00:07:18.060 But you know, that's not an appealing title, is it? 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.460 That doesn't get you as much views as 00:07:20.520 --> 00:07:23.060 PEWDIEPIE FUCKED UP A FIVE YEAR OLD 00:07:23.060 --> 00:07:25.700 PEWDIEPIE JUST WENT RIGHT IN ON THAT FIVE YEAR OLD 00:07:25.700 --> 00:07:27.920 That poor five year old- *childish voice* "ehh don't do it pewdiepie!" 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:29.980 FUCK YOU FIVE YEAR OLD 00:07:29.980 --> 00:07:31.400 And if you actually watched the video, 00:07:31.460 --> 00:07:32.980 you would understand. 00:07:34.100 --> 00:07:36.260 That I'm not making fun of the kid 00:07:36.260 --> 00:07:37.780 Uh, but that doesn't matter, does it? 00:07:37.780 --> 00:07:39.820 It really doesn't matter. At least not in the title. 00:07:39.820 --> 00:07:46.460 And you know what, to the benefit of the articles, usually do mention it somewhere along this fucking ?? of text 00:07:46.460 --> 00:07:49.400 But that doesn't really matter because the title 00:07:49.400 --> 00:07:53.420 is what people read. That's what 90% of what people actually read. 00:07:53.420 --> 00:07:57.020 Another big controversy, Ye-yes I know there's been a lot of them. 00:07:57.140 --> 00:08:00.340 uh, was me, slipping the N word in one of my videos 00:08:00.500 --> 00:08:04.340 Basically, I got excited about becoming a 00:08:04.340 --> 00:08:06.400 ranked 18 most handsome.

I love this censoring. 00:08:20.420 --> 00:08:23.020 If you gonna say it, just fucking say it. 00:08:23.020 --> 00:08:24.780 Context matters. 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:26.440 It's 2017 now. 00:08:26.500 --> 00:08:28.860 I think it's time for change. 00:08:28.940 --> 00:08:29.440 Okay. 00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:32.860 I know it's bad, I know it's gonna cause controversy. 00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:37.240 It kinda just slipped out, cause all my videos are improvised. 00:08:37.400 --> 00:08:42.200 And I saw through editing, I thought it was funny with the way it was used. 00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:45.760 Clearly, a bad call from my part, and I'm not gonna use it again 00:08:45.760 --> 00:08:48.600 mainly, not because I care if the word is bad or not, 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.080 It's because, people.. it just causes people to lose their 00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:54.280 fucking mind. And it's just not worth it. 00:08:54.280 --> 00:08:56.500 Like I don't get a kick out of all these controversy. 00:08:56.500 --> 00:09:01.420 It's not something that I just feel like, "OHFUCKYEAH LOOKATALLTHESEATTENTIONTHATI'MGETTING" 00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:03.960 I'm not trying to push the envelope. 00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.980 I'm just trying to stay true to my sense of humour.

I'm not 00:09:34.300 --> 00:09:35.740 saying that all media 00:09:35.740 --> 00:09:37.800 They're not allowed to criticise me 00:09:37.800 --> 00:09:39.040 'cause I'm perfect 00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:41.200 and my perspective is always what's better. 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.100 If I do, shit I should be called out for 00:09:43.100 --> 00:09:45.220 clearly, I have noth- I have no problem with that. 00:09:45.220 --> 00:09:48.980 But I don't think this is it.
