        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>YouTube star PewDiePie has come to the defense of his social media-famous colleague Jenna Marbles.</p><p>Marbles, 33, announced Thursday that she was <strong>quitting the platform</strong>, where she boasts over 20.2 million followers, after facing backlash for past videos where she dons blackface.</p><p>The backlash was more akin to bullying, though, PewDiePie said in a post Friday.</p><p>&#8220;Jenna Marbles was one of the most genuinely good people on this platform and now she gets bullied off the site by mistakes that happened 8-10 years ago&#8230;Who cares?&#8221; <strong>writes</strong> the 30-year-old, who has over 105 million YouTube subscribers. &#8220;These actions reflect in no way who she is and the content she makes today, anyone who watches her can see that. Some things were more leviant [sic] a few years ago — that&#8217;s not to say it was right, but where the line is drawn from the past and today seems non existent. I thought the point was to learn from your mistakes and do better? We all have problems in our past, no one in the world is perfect,&#8221; he goes on, concluding that, without Marbles and her ilk, the site &#8220;will be filled with nothing but douchetubers who don&#8217;t care, while the people who do, gets pushed out. So disappointed with the internet and how far things have gotten.&#8221;</p><p>The post, which has racked up over 322,00 upvotes and 15,000 comments as of this writing, features a range of responses, with many people calling cancel culture toxic and agreeing Marbles was unfairly made to quit YouTube for a &#8220;spray tan to the face.&#8221;</p><p>Marbles, whose real name is Jenna Mourey, made the videos in question between 2011-2012. In one, she wears blackface to impersonate rapper Nikki Minaj; in another, she raps about Asian people using lyrics including &#8220;Hey Ching Chong Wing Wong, shake your King Kong ding dong.&#8221; She has since made the clips private, and posted an apology video called &#8220;A Message,&#8221; which was met with mixed reactions on social media.</p><p>PewDiePie himself is no stranger to backlash, either. In 2017, Disney dropped a multimillion-dollar deal with the Swede after he posted a <strong>series of anti-Semitic videos</strong>.</p><figure id="attachment_15898149"  class="wp-caption alignnone aligncenter"><strong><noscript><img data- data-src="/uploads/2020/06/jenna-marbles-pewdiepie-77.jpg" class="lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /><noscript><img  data-src="/uploads/2020/06/jenna-marbles-pewdiepie-77.jpg" /></noscript></noscript><img class="lazyload" src='data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20210%20140%22%3E%3C/svg%3E' data- data-src="/uploads/2020/06/jenna-marbles-pewdiepie-77.jpg" /></strong><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span>Jenna Marbles addresses old, problematic content.</span><span class="credit">YouTube</span></figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded>
