Taking the ticket

PewDiePie serves as the latest demonstration of how those who are not dedicated to God will tend to succumb to the lures of the wicked sooner or later:

Gaming star PewDiePie has signed an exclusive deal to live-stream on YouTube, after switching to a rival platform in 2019. PewDiePie, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, is YouTube’s biggest independent video-maker with more than 104 million subscribers.

But he signed an exclusive deal with rival platform Dlive in 2019.

Mr Kjellberg said returning to YouTube was a “natural fit” as he looked for new ways to connect with fans.

While there is nothing wrong with a video streamer signing a deal with YouTube, this shows that if you hunger after the lollipops and fancy pants, they’ll usually find a way to lure you in to accepting their control, one way or another. Notice that PDP is even flashing the one-eye symbol; he is almost certainly under the impression that it’s just a harmless gesture, even a funny one making fun of celebrities, not unlike the black actor putting on a dress for comedic effect. But what he’s publicly demonstrating is submission to the god of this world.

Always keep both eyes open.

It’s interesting to see that both David Chapelle and PewDiePie have recently succumbed after years of stubbornly going against the stream and maintaining their independence. And it will be even more interesting to see how long it will take before PewDiePie revolts against the SJWs policing his every stream.
