He's one of the biggest and most loved youtube personalities. He has influence, and him saying this kind of stuff is a big deal. Pretending he's a nobody shows that you're simply ignorant.

Ignorant is everyone like you, worshipping these useless "celebrities", my dear clown. Now, you can go back licking YouTubers' ass and proudly let everyone know.

I don't worship youtubers, I'm just not braindead enough to deny reality because of my myopic personal preferences. This guy has a 110 million subscribers and his every video has been getting millions of views for well over a decade now. He is one of the biggest and most well known people on the internet, and he has a lot of influence because of it. When this guy puts out a video about a cause, his point of view is going to introduced and adopted by a lot of people. In this case, he put out a video on a cause that people in here advocate for, and they're pleasantly surprised that their views are getting this kind of exposure. You not understanding this obvious nuance is your problem, not anybody else's.
