God this guy has always sucked so hard. So many redditors used to hate him, but then he started being racist so suddenly reddit became pewdiepie holesum 100 big chungus.
I don't think le epic redditoors started liking Pewdiepie when he turned racist, I think Pewdiepie just directed a lot of his young fans to start using Reddit and the demographics shifted because his viewerbase is so large.
I think what happened is pewdiepie was unpopular with the 20s crowd in the early-mid part of the last decade and so he was accordingly unpopular with reddit but then as the 20s became 30s and fell out of reddit into other spaces/life they were replaced by younger people who grew up on pewdiepie and always liked him, so it's really just generational turnover more than anything
