People tried and failed to educate him. If they hadn't I wouldn't have jumped straight into denouncing him. He did basically tell that trans person who mentioned the slurs on the forum to suck it up.
I already had a private chat with him, and he changed the video thumbnail but doubled down on his opinions that trans people should just tolerate his usage of slurs.

That is an extremely bad take. People have tried *everything* for years. Nothing changed. Things have turned to riots because all other options were exhausted and have been for decades.

It's HIS YouTube channel and he has an *audience* that he's influencing and that has an impact on all of us in the field. You don't get to say whatever you want and not be criticized when you have a platform.

If that person finds I'm saying *slurs* that demean and hurt them, or spout toxic stuff that devalues entire classes of people and strips them of their accomplishments, then yes, they should complain. If they just don't like what I'm talking about then they can unfollow.

You're putting a joke about NSA implants, that I made once, on the same level as a transphobic slur that Dave blurts our every other video. You're literally asking me to apologize for making a joke you didn't get here. Can you see how that's kind of silly?
