Pewdiepie made his money off really really really young audience.. those of you old enough to make up your own judgement/mind and talk about it weren't the ones Disney really cared about.. It's the fact that MILLIONS of young viewers - aged 6+ (probably mostly 8 to 11 years old) watched something that tried to normalize something most kids in that age group shouldn't normalize...

If people feel he was "holding back his freedom" then Disney should NEVER have been a sponsor and WSJ did a service to wake up the community to sponsorship of content creators not creating content for the demographics in which his revenue was being generated.

my 9 year old used to love him, sang "this sammich doesn't have turkey on it" all the freaking time but now won't even admit his existence mostly because kids want to watch youtubers have fun and not hate.. even if its in satire - its not the right demographics..
