SO MUCH HATE! Why Dave Chappelle Is Under Attack For What He Did and More

[@PhilipDeFranco]

PHILIP DEFRANCO IS SO PROBLEMATIC! UNSUBSCRIBED!!! Happy Thursday Nation.

[@MaSTARMedia]

This PC culture of 2017 is destroying comedy. Comedians say controversial jokes in order to take people out of their comfort zone so that they can let loose and laugh. Everything famous people say is looked at through a magnifying glass to see if there's anything people can get triggered about, and like you said, this society is filled with people who get offended for others who may or may not get offended. It's stupid, its ruining comedy, and it's run by idiots that want to burn it all down.

[@Avrysatos]

How much you wanna bet like one person made a video ranting about it and then someone anti-pc made a video ranting about ALL the pc culture people bitching about his comedy. Meanwhile the normal people are just like wtf..uh..we all know what his comedy's like..if you don't wanna watch it don't...

[@dminsanebros]

MaSTAR Media I could not agree more with i have 100% the same opinion as you

[@-PAHANA-]

Triggered = butt hurt*

[@Dean-ht7ey]

MaSTAR Media while yes I feel that people are becoming to PC and yes it is highly annoying but in this case I have to disagree personally I am part of the LGBTQ+ community what he said is not just a joke about it it is blatantly what many non comedian homophobics say but it's ok got his as it's just a joke he is getting away with what others don't because people say anyone offended is overly pc but that's personally just my opinion and it's not that it annoys or upsets me but it's just not right

[@bricekiser2396]

PC culture is destroying our culture as a whole not just comedy, let's not kid ourselves, when people start using the law and violence to try and silence people who they find offensive we have a serious problem. The examples like Dave here are simply ripples in the pond. Look at guys like Milo, like the incident at UCBerkley. There's a sensitivity problem and it's not just affecting comedy.

[@TarksGauntlet]

Times change. Dave Chappelle hasn't, and for that, I love him.

[@TarksGauntlet]

I swear if Dave Chappell's comedy, and anybody similar to he's comedy was released five years ago, nobody would be talking about "offensive jokes" are not permitted in comedy

[@jadecampos1152]

Theodore Williams Because the swjs of the world get their panties in a twist and don't want anything put up they enjoy even if it's well received

[@djrun4kover]

Theodore Williams shit do you remeber eddie Murphy's specials both of them were homophobic as hell i dont remember anybodie making a huge ass fuss over it

[@bsmi1361]

Theodore Williams Right. He's saving comedy. Comedy isn't politically correct like they have tried to push on other comics.

[@marcusalan184]

Dave Chappelle has never been PC. Apparently those who decided to get offended are completely unfamiliar with his previous work. IMO, Dave is the greatest comedian of our time. At this point, there probably inst anything that could come out of his mouth that I'd consider too far. The last thing we need is a legend like Dave rethinking parts of his routine or funny comments he might make out of fear of backlash.

[@DutchmanDavid]

Theodore Williams Don't be illusioned. PC culture has existed for QUITE a while. The thing is that it's getting BIGGER in the last few years.

[@localfox1000]

[@fidelcatto9889]

Some people just have thin skin. I need to go back and watch his show now.

[@Austin-fd6gv]

Why can't people take things less seriously?

[@JustJaySama]

I like how at the beginning of the special he says "if you are being sensitive you aren't going to make it to the end of the show" It was a great special!

[@QueenNyanicorn]

I'm happy you touched on what rape victims face on a daily basis because people like to deny that it happened and victim blame. Also, when situations like this happen (the girl lying about being raped), it makes people deny rape and victim blame more. Whenever I share my story, I always get people who don't believe me because I am a woman who was raped by another woman. Of course, before they find out it was a woman who raped me, they ask what I was wearing and how I was acting. It's ridiculous how many people instantly turn to blame the person who was hurt instead of the person who did the hurting.

[@Nikkitighe]

A woman like that who blatantly makes up an assault is just as much as a criminal as actual sexual assaulters in my opinion. People like her are the reason why women who are actually raped are not taken seriously and subsequently why their rapists are not criminally prosecuted.

[@CrazzedKor]

People like her are also the reason millions of men have their life destroyed by the false allegations. Women always gotta make themselves the victim.

[@ladylowman6403]

Less then 2% of all reported sexual assaults are false. Less then 2%.

[@queenpinkysfamily1618]

Women like this make me sick, as a person who has had bad shit happen to them as a kid and the monster went free I want these women in jail for more than 180 days of cushy US jails time. This is why I have no women friends.

[@ladylowman6403]

Women who lie make the other larger number of actual sexual assault victims a big problem for police or the public to believe them.

[@CrazzedKor]

Ashley Blanchard. Cool so you've witnessed every sexual assault? If you're just going by prosecution stats then thats pretty idiotic. Its widely known the prosecution system is extremely biased in favor of women.

[@brendencline6875]

I am gay and don't care what is said in comedy about lgbtq+, race, gender etc. as long as it doesn't come back to how you treat people in the real world out of comedy.

[@gimmesucc7449]

THE APPLES ARE COMING !!!!!!!!!!! Makes me wonder who really has a stick up their asses if even you guys aren't treating this like a serious issue.

[@narwhalnel]

Same. People get so fucking up their own asses and sensitive.

[@aussie519]

I respect that. I feel like the vast majority of people, even if not personally in favour of homosexuality, dont care about it as long as it doesnt interfere with their lives, and it should be the same in reverse. This type of needless outrage is what gives the gay community a bad rap.

[@edwardrodriguez6423]

Dave did nothing wrong. He's a comedian. Its his job to push the limits.

[@goodguy6369]

I think he should be applauded, I personally think comedy is meant to be audience based and to have people laugh at themselves. If you don't like it don't listen to the jokes they tell. I love Dave Chappelle's work because he tells he sees it is no bs and no political correctness. If they don't like it they can stop watching ,but trying to guilt trip people into not listening to something is wrong. Let people make their own minds up don't say he is homophobic let them make that assessment when they watch it. This is why I dislike SJWs and LGBT pushers since they try to tell people what to think and that is something that is not only wrong but its borderline facism. Maybe an LGBT person might think it was funny ,maybe they don't take a joke personally and take it for what it is: a joke. I wish they would just report the reviews and never mix politics with these things and just say its controversial and leave it at that. That way you don't go watching it with the bais of well they said he hated gay people. Ya the news also said trump would never be president but look at the pile of bullcrap we are covering in now thanks to their bais toward helping Hillary try to win and almost making sure Trump won by supporting her so bluntly.

[@kingjamestres]

Just think about it in the 50s three random black dudes probably would have been lynched for that girls lies.

[@orlandomathis3451]

[@aburden4148]

It sounds a hell of a lot like How to Kill a Mockingbird

[@TripleA992]

Whoa, wait, is everyone just gonna ignore the part where Dave Chapelle says he supports the LGBTQ movement?? Or the part where he labels himself a feminist and says he wants to see women succeed and not be held back by their gender??? In no way do I support or condone any hate, homophobia, or sexism but the thing to remember is that all the "offensive" things Chapelle was saying was from a comedic perspective, they were jokes. At least for me, I didn't perceive the tone or the delivery of his set to be at all aggressive. He was even making fun of himself at certain points in the show and I think that people just need to learn to laugh at themselves every now and then and not take everything so seriously. Just take in the context and pick your battles wisely people.

[@RavynSkye617]

How do you fit 10 Jews into a VW Beatle? ... IN THE ASHTRAY! Yeah, you aren't really that original. I'd work on your standup routine to polish it up a little before you put out an add to be hired for Bar/Bat Mitzvah parties.

[@sherwood365]

Totally agree about Chappele. Comedy is not reality. Fair game for all

[@lyricbot8513]

Paul Sherwoood Yes! :) He handled it fairly sensitively, people need to choose their battles like they choose their gender. oooh edgy joke but jk just everyone chill

[@olithesweed]

Paul Sherwoood No comedy is alot closer to reality, Thats the thing we've got the roles reversed. If you're living in a bubble you're not living in reality no matter how big the bubble is and how many are in it with you. Dave is simply poking at that bubble and these freaks cant handle it, Its gettting to ridicules i cant take these people seriously anymore they're nothing less than freaks to me.

[@sherwood365]

Oli The Sweed oh Oli. First of all the greatest comics of all time consistently say the things that most wont. Carlin, cook, burr, Louis CK. Etc. Thats what makes them hilarious. They have no regard for feelings because they dont believe the shit they say. They say outlandish shit to make people think outside the "normal realm" and the greatest thing about people and especially people in the nation is your views of thinking their 'freaks' doesnt say anything other than your just some ignorant moron who feels anyone even gives a shit about what you think or feel lol. Go fuck yourself.

[@Jujubabas]

Comedy is Comedy! If you don't like that comedy, then don't listen to it. Simple life hacks

[@bradreviews]

Taty7659 when does comedy stop being comedy and becomes hate speech

[@boullioncube389]

If any comedy special should get outrage it's Amy Schumer's. That 'special' was god-awful and, to me, it seems PROBLEMATIC that criticism against her is just "alt-right trolling" to be ignored, and then criticism against Chappelle is in the name of political correctness? I blame it on those damn KIDS TODAY, didn't spend their formidable years watching the Chappelle show and understanding his humor.

[@lexi6794]

Boullion Cube you blame it on "today's kids" but who do you think raised those children? If anything today's young adults and teens are significantly more sarcastic and dark-humored than any generation.

[@sanandreas2500]

Blame it on the the parents of the last 20 years they made these bunch of pussy children.

[@VMohdude-]

Boullion Cube yeah women should stay out of conedy

[@boullioncube389]

Dang, maybe I need to work on my keyboard sarcasm because I didn't think that's what would be the take-away from my comment lol. But, any younger person (that I've encountered anyway) who seems to be offended by what he's saying never really watched him since he was gone for 10 years. You are right though, they also had helicopter parents or college professors telling that that everything is 'problematic' and offensive. It makes me wonder what will be considered offensive in another 10 year stretch.

[@boullioncube389]

Do you think a KZbin comment is that serious? Seriously? :) I was more making a point that since he's been gone for so long, a LOT of people are either unfamiliar or forgot about his style of humor.

[@ChrisRamsay52]

I HATE when people take a comedians jokes and make it TEXT! It's all about the delivery! FFS

[@CarlosRodriguez-dh7mm]

Chris Ramsay Love seeing creators I follow comment on other channels.

[@charliegrass4706]

Lefty here. The Dave Chapelle comedy specials are spectacular. He is clearly joking and even just talking about issues in such a way (through comedy) helps to de-value the real people who are anti-gay/anti-trans because it's absurd the things he finds wrong with the LGBTQ community

[@AdamsWeird]

As someone who is bi I found what Dave Chappelle said was really funny because I understand that it's meant for comedic purposes, and I actually enjoy it when comedians make fun of the LGBT community because it makes me feel included in the joke.

[@formonkeys5042]

Thx man don't worry we all know everyone is different and those LGBT activists don't represent all gays/bis, even though they think they do

[@xsanguine8]

That's the whole point, and I think he had a skit like that in a previous special, where a gay, deaf, and physically challenged person was in the audience (in the front row) and he had already hit everybody else on the floor. I can't remember how many identity labels the person in that skit had, other than being in the wheelchair, or if it was actually Chappelle, but the point was that they were there for the jokes, not exclusion.

[@DarthRoyGBiv]

I can respect your line of thinking. I don't like what he said, but I can respect the fact that comedy isn't meant to be safe or polite.

[@ZynnHavik]

I feel somewhat sad that professionals must use the word "tweets" in official statements.

[@bestieswithtesties]

It really did seem out of place. I don't know why he didn't say "those claims" instead of "those tweets". But it really is depressing to think about how our president uses twitter to make statements like that. I think Trump has a serious ego problem and gets off on getting attention on twitter.

[@jameshoffman552]

Trump needs a strong ego to battle the Deep State and Controlled Media nexus that's hell-bent on destroying him, and uses Twitter to bypass such in getting his message to the people.

[@vidgami46]

[@DevinAK49]

Aylien Real estate haha, right? I knew by his tone that the woman was lying. you can hear a bit of his soul leaving his body.

[@ajwaddanwarr3409]

The sad part is Chappelle actually accommodates for potential back lashes from people who may get offended and explains his jokes. The man is clearly aware of the social issues he is poking fun at but he is a comedian at the end of the day, so he is gonna say controversial stuff

THAT is what's wrong with everyone these days...incapable of laughing at themselves or having anyone make fun of something they like or feel strongly about. They take to social media and spew their outrage.

[@ninjaguy2511]

its only the radical left which is a good amount of liberals now of days that are offended along with LGBTQ since they get triggered over anything. People know not all gay\bi\trans people are as stupid as the people triggered over this or that riot in the streets like kids having baby tantrum.

[@xeinex]

either everything is capable of being comedy subject matter or nothing is.

[@BigJoker]

The comedy special was brilliant. Somehow I expected Chappelle would get a pass because I don't remember people getting super outraged about his show back then, but I guess I was wrong. He made fun of everyone equally.

Wow. So Dave Chappelle's a "problematic person" for doing the same kind of comedy he's been doing for what? Over a DECADE now?!

[@finnthyhuman_]

Comedian's entire careers rest on pushing boundaries. Dave Chapelle, Kevin Hart, Louis C.K., Gabriel Iglesias, and so many others are hilarious and successful because they aren't afraid to say what they want. Whether it be making jokes about gay people, jokes about abusive relationships, jokes about child molestation, obesity and how people do it to themselves. Like you said, you take off your real world hat when you go to see a comedian, when you watch them on television performing, or their specials on other platforms.

[@knightrider693]

[@ahmedmoussa4343]

Did u say kevin hart ? he's the least edgy comedian since fuckin seinfeld. and gab iglesias is more a clown than a comic

[@finnthyhuman_]

The World , you shouldn't have your real world hat on during comedian's performances.

[@finnthyhuman_]

ahmed moussa , have you ever really listened to their shows? Kevin Hart in more than one of his shows that I've watched makes jokes towards abusive relationships that he's been in. Gabriel Iglesias makes jokes about being obese and how he would rather be unhealthy and happy than healthy and unhappy. To a good amount of people in the world abuse relationships aren't something to joke about, and neither is obesity. But they still do it. It's not as in your face as child molestation, but it's something to get people riled up about if they don't have basic understanding of comedians.

noblesteed30 just do it yourself homie. make that dough

[@Barrycorcoran]

Under the story of comedy, I'm right with Phil. I feel comedians should be allowed to push the line, although I don't think we can fault those that get upset. Often people who get upset about comedy are discredited as snowflakes, and I understand why. But, we have to remember that for whatever reason it is, that joke drew to close to home for them. And it upset them. They're allowed to be upset because their most likely hurting and implicitly taking it out on the comedian. I ultimately don't think its the comedians fault, nor is it the people who get upsets fault. It's just an unfortunate situation, and we should all have a conversation about it.

[@samcrumpit3081]

You can have your opinions. Don't have to get so defensive that you feel the need to strawman.

[@Barrycorcoran]

I agree, a lot of people take it to the point of censorship. And I think thats messed up. But I think if someones upset about something they have should have the right to express that. (Even if it's for dumb reasons)

[@hideandseek558]

this is a good comment

[@Vandal-YT]

Barry C. problem is that a lot of the upset people arent even lgbtq, they are just hearing that someone is saying something that offends someone and they want to get their own share of offended

[@Henryduckfan63]

This is probably the best way to approach stuff like this.

[@mowseler]

I don't know why, but hearing the director of the FBI saying "tweets" in a super serious and official tone just sounded ludicrous.

[@justinnyugen7015]

If a comedian's jokes are enough to threaten someone's moral views, those views probably weren't strong enough to begin with.

[@TheDbl77]

With comedy either everything is fair game or nothing is

[@lyricbot8513]

Dan The Llama True, as long as the person is genuinely funny and not just one of those loud idiots who's trying to be funny and failing hard. Chappell is hilarious

[@entlvr35]

I do not agree. That guy, Tosh is not my cup of tea. He is abrasive & low brow. While there is something about Dave, Louis, the self depreciating humor but intellectual, you know they aren't just pointing & making insults. A great comic is a surgeon. I bad one, is a butcher.

[@TreveonBa]

First, let me say that I didn't watch the special. I'm just hear to offer some perspective that hasn't been circulating much (as far as I can tell) in this comment section. One thing about comedy that everyone must remember is that it is subjective and that context is extremely important. What is funny to one will not always be funny to another. Once people choose to make a joke about a specific group, they effectively make one about every member of it. Now so a trans that decided to to watch him perform live or watch him on Netflix may have a blast. They entered/watched with the intent to hear his comedy, and understand the context surrounding it. Another trans, sitting at home flipping through facebook and accidentally stumbling on an article describing his show may not be as effective. Context is lost, as well as the humorous environment (for a lack of a better word choice). In the end, a reaction such as the one that happened to Chappelle is an inevitable, and a reasonably expected one.

[@celinak5062]

Echo Echo +

[@speckle_says]

+Echo Echo I support what you're saying. Comedy is definitely subjective, and the views of one member of a group shouldn't be used to reflect the entirety of the group. Chappele's humor doesn't appeal to everyone. I haven't seen the special myself, and have no desire to, as I don't think his comedy would appeal to me. But I completely support his right to say whatever he wants to. Censorship is a big issue, and comedy is a very grey area, with people pushing the line between humor and just plain being an asshole. But comedy is always evolving, views are always changing, and people should be allowed to say what they want to. That being said, I have what may be considered a "nitpick" to some. To me, it's actually kind of a big deal. In your comment, you used "trans" as a noun. It would be like saying "a black watched it," "an old watched it," or "a fat watched it," etc. Trans is an adjective, and using it the way you did just strips people down to their transness, as if that's all that defines them as a person. Many people may think this isn't worth pointing out, but it's something I care about. I'm not ordering you to change your language, just pointing out that grammatically, it's incorrect, and emotionally, it can be hurtful.

[@SarahLifeLover]

I feel like people who make fake rape allegations should be punished as much as rapists.

[@scitechian]

So, 3-5 years on paper, but back out on the streets in 6 months?

[@loopdahoop4910]

scitechian you are talking about the turner case? That case was handle the way it was, because the person who should have persecuted him never showed up. Also her comment on the matter did not help him to stay in jail either. i am not saying its good that he got shorter sentence, all im saying is that justice system have its way of doing things, and you cannot expect maximum punishment in that environment.

[@phoebesulistio6830]

Nnnnno, no. No rape victim would agree to that, it would be making light of their own circumstances. When they implicate a specific person or people however, they should be punished more severely for smearing the reputation of the accused.

[@nickpillow5692]

Yea

[@jadecampos1152]

Phoebe Sulistio It doesn't matter if actual rape victims agree, people who falsely claim rape should be punished just like rapists (my opinion). You can't control rape and you can't control false accusations. Some rapists DON'T get jail or prison time, especially if they're under the age of 18 or 16 years of age. But most female rapists don't get punished either. Falsely accusing rape, whether it there were no suspects, if they say it was a black or white male or female those races would get hated upon for a false claim. If no one was specified and they admitted they faked it, no one would take a rape victim seriously. Most lie to get attention or hurt a race or person, and if they're going to do that, they need to be punished.

[@bdoolzzzz]

So Amy Schaumer is allowed to exist, but Dave Chappelle can't make a joke?

[@TheNnnnnnnnnnkkkkkkk]

I wouldn't be friends with people who found Dave Chappelle offensive. I don't need that kind of weakness in my life.

[@servingzombies]

@Arianagrande Stan your name calling is the same thing by your definition. People like you are weak and hide behind excuses

[@servingzombies]

@Arianagrande Stan it's not a irrational fear and it's not hate it's a joke. You talk more about race then actual racist do in this conversation. Race only matters to weirdos like you and racist when it comes to jokes. So quit being weak and talking about race like it matters in this situation.

[@ShartimusPrime]

Bringing back the partnership program will fix KZbin. This way there will be a mild vetting process beforehand and advertisers can feel comfortable buying the ad space again. For small-fries like me, youtube earnings have been significantly less since monetization was available for ANY youtube channel and video. Seriously, bringing back the partnership program will be better for everyone. Please make it happen, Phil. 😎

[@clamclam7632]

Haven't watched the video yet but I just want to say that DAVE CHAPPELLE's standup specials were the funniest god damn stand up specials i've see on Netflix in a long time My worst fear was that he would have changed and made his jokes more fitting to the PC demographic but he didn't. He joked about rape and pussy and I loved every minute of it. So whatever Dave Chappelle is getting hate for better be pretty fucking phenomenal because it's very unlikely my opinion of him will change. IT BETTER NOT BE SOME PC BULLSHIT

[@HeatForce]

Rough Butter Damn straight buddy. Dave is the shit.

[@psychosociety7910]

this is what will REALLY piss you off... he gets 4.5 stars and "everyone" hates it... Amy gets 1 star and "alt-right trolls" attacking me

[@josephcantu3562]

Amy got 1 star because she is a materiel theif and she doesn't even tell jokes. she just say vulgar things and references her vagina and because she is a lady we are all suppose to be like "oh my". it's shock value, not comedy. Dave chappelle on the other hand is a fucking genius. comedy is suppose to be the wild wild west where ANYTHING is allowed as long as it is funny. the only real rule to comedy is don't steal jokes.

[@erakattack]

[@josephcantu3562]

KNEW IT! As soon as you started talking about the Brianna Talbot story, I had a feeling "This is gonna be another false report filed" case. Then, boom, you called it. God, why do people do this? It ruins the chances of getting actual help for those that ARE rapped or assaulted because of people seeing all these things. It's just terrible.

[@xRawlins]

Anyone who saw Dave Chappelle's episode on "Inside the Actors Studio" shouldn't be surprised by his gay and trans comments. With that said, the only way I could NOT like Chappelle is if we found out he was running an ISIS training camp or someshit. I love the guy.

But why would I believe you after that story too anyway? AND on the internet above all that Mr. Lolzmonster

[@calohtar]

MentalPatient64 The penalty for provably false accusations should be equal to the alleged crime.

[@smithmichaels]

As to Dave, if comedians don't cross the line, talk about those things that are uncomfortable to us we are silent and the discussion that needs to happen might not! I'm with you on this. Lenny Bruce is a hero of mine for speaking out and never giving in... Talbot should go to jail and be an example for people bearing false witness, always wrong! I really appreciate your well-balanced perspective and reporting. You are a refreshing voice.

[@TheJjcczz]

Personally I think the punishment for false reporting should be 6 months to 1 year in prison without early release plus a large fine and restitution for the wasted time. I think this is severe enough to make people think twice about false reporting and teach them a lesson should they do it anyway.

[@023natan]

TheJjcczz when someone goes to jail for rape, the average sentece is 10 to 15 years. with a false acusation of rape you are sending a inocent to jail for over a decade. So, you know what, 10 to 15 yeas should also be the sentence for false acusation of rape.

[@TheJjcczz]

Natan Alves Falsely reporting a rape and sending an innocent person to jail are two separate crimes. If someone false reported a rape and got someone sent to prison it wouldn't just be classified as false reporting it would also be considered framing. And depending on how far the framing went would result in a several charges with more severe punishments. My recommendation is only for people who falsely report rape and not for people who frame other people for crimes they didn't commit. If I were to make a recommendation for someone who framed another person it would be that they receive either half of whatever sentence the person they framed got or the full sentence depending on the circumstances. So for example if someone was framed for rape then whoever framed them would either get 5-10 years or 10-15 years depending on things like wether or not they confessed or if they didn't confess and instead got caught.

[@tatebennet1365]

I don't understand the anger behind ads showing up next to or before controversial content. I get that a company has a lot of time/ money invested in an ad and wants to ensure it sends a certain message and reaches a target audience but at the end of the day an ad and a video (unless it's a sponsorship) are two separate entities. the fact that people are comparing an ad and it's company to the video it appears next to seems somewhat absurd. it's like if you go to a grocery store and you find apples in the pasta isle, it doesn't make much sense but I'm still going to buy the apple if I'm in the market for one and it doesn't mean you should pull all apples from the store.

[@colesspamacct.3393]

Here's an idea for the youtube ad problem: Give advertisers the choice to be featured on certain channels that they can choose (Like for example, MacDonald wants to advertise on pewdiepie's channel, markiplier, etc) and only display their ads on chosen channels. Then, say they can also appear on algorithm sorted videos, but with the added risk that they could be inappropriate. Then it's giving advertisers more choice and still supporting smaller KZbinrs. But that's just my 2 cents

[@jadecampos1152]

Olympus Legacy I agree completely, or KZbin needs to start watching over videos before they're uploaded, because KZbin only checks the thumbnails, titles, and tags. They don't watch the video to make sure they're appropriate. Anyone could post a bombing or rape on KZbin but put a different title and thumbnail and get away with it. It's bullshit and it needs to be fixed.

[@scribs7728]

Ads choosing their channels to advertise on would be a bad idea. They'd probably make demands to let you get an ad on your channel.

[@Mjkaddict77]

Olympus Legacy wait... so no ad revenue unless you can sell yourself to advertisers?

[@jadecampos1152]

C' Dawg Not necessarily. If they did they'd probably ask if they can advertise, but KZbinrs want to get ad revenue so most would say yes anyways

[@jadecampos1152]

Happy Puppy Advertisers don't want their ads on videos that support terrorism, or involve rape, etc. you can't make an advertiser like somebody just because the person needs money. If the advertiser doesn't like their content they shouldn't be forced to have their ads on that video.
