I can understand the OP. I have no full hatred towards PewDiePie, and I do think he's poor in the sense of comedy. He is only doing this because the people who watch his videos like the style of comedy he does. Just like Spongebob, he goes for the loud and annoying tactic. Children are adopting to this idea from modern TV shows and haven't been well introduced to the other styles like slapstick and jokes/puns. Most people who grew up with slapstick and jokes, like me, want to depreciate the new style of comedy. There is no reason why PewDiePie should be hated for making popular videos of screaming and stuff, because some people out there enjoy a different style of humor. It is their opinion, and I feel entitled to enjoy the style of comedy that I want to.
Now, his fans tend to overuse memes in PewDiePie's videos when they see it in another video. Why, you may ask? Because, like little kids, if they recognize something, they'd be more than willing to point it out, even if it's obvious. For example, if a kid plays Minecraft a lot and he sees or hears something related to diamonds, he might say: "Diamonds? That's just like Minecraft!" It's a memory recital that young people tend to do. You have to admit that you've done it before; it's something that's considered human to do.
If another person puts down PewDiePie as a terrible person, that's their opinion. Still, some fans of his do their best to support them because they want to prove he isn't as bad as people say he is. Again, that's the opinion of the fans. Neither side is "correct", and it is only peer pressure that drives people to say one is right over the other. Both the fans and the haters have no right to say they are.
TL;DR Read it all before replying to me you lazy sloth.
