As I suggested in a previous post, the references to the New Zealand suspect's social media interactions implies
that there's a mocking-tone to the tragedy that isn't set in white supremacist hatred.
It could be that those who frequent 4Chan and other forums are larking about in a cruel manner that is usual on these
websites, but any strict control of social media by Government-backed authority would also assist the mainstream
media in dealing with their current failing ratings.
PewdiePie is a powerful YouTube commentator -mainly discussing computer games and a lighted-hearted look at
daily news.

Quote:Nazi and 'PewDiePie' graffiti scrawled on Brit school days after New Zealand massacre.
'A massive Nazi swastika and the phrase "PewDiePie" was scrawled on a building near playing fields at Cheney
Secondary School, in Oxford. [UK]
The horrifying imagery appeared just a day after the killings that shook the world –leaving the Oxford community in shock.
The world’s most popular Youtuber, PewDiePie, was referred to in a sick white supremacist “manifesto” written by the
suspected killer of 50 Muslims in Christchurch, New Zealand, on Friday...'
PewdiePie is a powerful YouTube commentator -mainly discussing computer games and a lighted-hearted look at
daily news.
Quote:'...The gunman, who had live broadcast the attack on Facebook, urged those watching to "subscribe to PewDiePie,”SOURCE:
referencing a popular internet meme. PewDiePie, who has more than 80 million subscribers to his channel where he
streams video games, has strongly condemned the killings.
The school graffiti is thought to have appeared over the weekend and had been removed by council workers by Sunday
morning. Thames Valley Police officers joined council workers at the scene as the clean up got underway, but at this stage,
it is not known if the vandalism is being treated as a crime.
The latest scrawlings follow a similar case late last year in which Nazi swastikas were sprayed on an Oxford Community Centre.
It was sprayed across the Quarry Pavilion, on Margaret Road, and prompted fears of hate crime in Oxford.
Oxford city councillor Shaista Aziz said that, as the second recent incident in the city, it “cannot be dismissed as just vandalism”.
She told the Oxford Mail: "This is my former school so it has even more resonance, it is very clear there needs to be a visible
response [from police and authorities]. "I am horrified. The context of the New Zealand attack where 49 people were massacred,
you can’t ignore the reference. Given the global context it takes on a whole other meaning.
"This is highly racial hate at a time of global hate and within 24 hours of people being massacred. I am horrified and want to know
why this is happening."...;
