After Logan Paul, YouTubers Dan Rue And Nick Joseph Face Backlash For Offensive Racist Content
#1 These YouTubers Need To Keep Their Behaviour In Check!
After Logan Paul incident, Youtubers are being scrutinized for their behaviour and a number of them are being called out for their highly offensive behaviour. Lately, Shane Dawson is in hot water after a 4-year-old audio of the Youtuber has surfaced on the Internet, in which the Youtuber could be heard justifying paedophilia and admits to googling naked babies.
Logan Paul has been fired by Youtube for posting a video on his social media account for filming a video in a Japanese forest with a victim of suicide in the background.
#2 Racist Content
Clearly, it seems like that Logan Paul and Shane Dawson aren't the only ones with a twisted sense of humor as others to join the bandwagon are infamous Youtubers, Dan Rue and Nick Joseph. An old video of the YouTubers have resurfaced on the Internet and the content of the video has been labelled as 'highly offensive' and 'racist.'
#3 Mocking The Language
The video shows the pair walking around the streets of a city in Japan and at the end of the clip, Nick tells his partner to go grab a child and Dan proceeds to run after a child with the mother of the child running after them. In the background Nick could be heard saying in an offensive tone, "Jackie Chan will find you."
The highly disrespectful video was posted on social media with the caption "I found the girl from rush hour." As if they were not being nuisance enough, the Youtubers could be heard mocking the Japanese language throughout the video.
#4 Disrespectful To The Community
The offensive behaviour does not end here and the Youtubers upon seeing two black people, they caption that part as "Nigga, they got niggas in Japan? They must be looking for Mulan's fine ass." While this appears as a harmless joke, this is actually highly insensitive and disrespectful to the Asian community.
#5 Insincere Apology
The video has been referred to as disgusting by people on social media and the YouTubers are being bashed for it. Following the criticism, Dan Rue in a non-apologetic manner, tweeted, "Hope you all kno this was staged with the family and the child is clearly laughing in the video. We had to edit her laugh out the end when we PRETENDED to take her. That’s all I’m saying have a blessed day. Don’t have time to argue it’s clearly a definitive conversation."
People are specifically calling out Nick for his highly offensive tone while commenting throughout the video, mocking the language, one user commented, "As someone who is Asian, the way he was speaking and mocking the language was racist and disrespectful. Especially doing it in public in front of the very people he was poking fun at and using as a joke for view."
#6 Never Come To Japan Again!
People also accused the two of having a sick sense of humor and to stop using racism as a source of getting fame. A number of Japanese also commented, clearly upset with the mocking they have clearly told them not to come to Japan again. "You’re gonna get what you deserve. We, Japanese, never forgive you. Don’t insult us. You’ve crossed the line."
