As a bisexual, homophobia definitely DOES hurt me, and also hurts people who I am proud to call my friends. Why aren't you telling the homophobes to let US be, or is there some mystical way that our sexual preferences are causing them justifiable harm?
Homophobia is an issue for the exact reason that you are telling people to lay off those who preach it; we aren't being left alone despite the fact that nothing that we are doing is harming anyone at all, and yet you call for us to lay off those who spread and preach hate.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.
Excerpt from "Seeress of Kell", Book Five of The Malloreon series by David Eddings.
"You need not fear us, unless you are a dark heart, a vile one who preys on the innocent; I promise, you can’t hide forever in the empty darkness, for we will hunt you down like the animals you are, and pull you into the very bowels of hell." Iron - Within Temptation

Well, unless that youtuber happens to be homosexual or something and is suffering from the laws that are supported by those they are railing against. I'd say that's a pretty clear case of them being harmed by the people who hold those beliefs.
edit: avatar said what I wanted to say better, except for the bisexual/me being directly affected by it bit

Ok, what I mean Is just don't give them more stuff to hate on and add fuel to the fire, They are fading into irrelevence anyway. And the haters will hate no matter what. I would say for the homophobes to stop hating, but I gave up on trying to change their bakward beliefs along time ago.

*cough*check out my youtube channel link is in my signature *cough*
Wow...where did that come from? Seriously though, I don't really have a least favorite youtube persona. I came into the whole "guys playing video games on youtube" hobby through a couple guys who are pretty popular but not nearly as big as the "big names" (one f jef and Grimithr, they're pretty cool). So I never really got a chance to watch any of them because I'd already found stuff I liked.
Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!

RayWilliamJohnson. He is unfunny and doesn't contribute anything worthwhile to the videos he's commentating over. Tosh.0 is tolerable because at least Daniel Tosh's complete contempt for the people seems sincere. I don't hate the guy since he's basically giving his audience what they want. If you reward mediocrity you will continue to receive mediocrity.

His material covers similar ground to the Nostalgia Critic but he does it without the dumb yelling and has a real knowledge and insight into Film-making. He also adds his own trailers at the beginning of each retrospective which are beautifully edited and actually better than the trailers the studios produced.
His videos aren't really reviews in my opinion but he does cover every aspect of the productions.
It would be a real boost to me if you would watch a few of his videos and leave a couple likes or maybe even subscribe as he is a great guy and defo not in youtube for the money. (Any ads on the vids are not his)
I like Red Letter Media a lot but I might check this guy out (agree about Nostalgia Critic as well).

How mighty of you, that's definitely how you support a righteous cause, just give up and ignore. It's thinking like that, that allows our constitution to be eroded over time, and why the GLBT community still have less rights than I or my wife do, and still can't get married in many states and so on. Brilliant dude, just brilliant, and I thought you've had some ignorant stances on subjects before.
Perhaps a thread about good Youtube channels would be more productive. One concerning those people dislike is a tad negative considering that its mostly just people moaning about people they don't like. Then again, that could just result in people griping that they don't enjoy watching the same videos as others, but still, at least its original intention wouldn't be just criticising.

I'm sorry but I have to ask. Are you a homophobe? Because your anwser to someone being a homophobe right now is: Don't be gay.
And as for creationist, they are just as harmful if not more so by spreading ignorance and scientific illiteracy.

Well I don't think we've really had any big arguments on this thread so far. Maybe give it a shot?
If it turns out bad, worst case scenario is it can just be ignored.

I don't think I hate anyone, however some do get on my nerves, smosh is a prime example, 4/5 years ago, I thought they were hilarious but instead now they have just run out of ideas and are getting worse each video, don't think I've watched them in a long long time
Slaanesh: "Hey guys we're back! We brought presents. And yes, they ARE sexually suggestive"
Tzeentch: "So did we miss anything while we were away"
Khorne and Nurgle trade a shifty glance

No. I have gay friends who agree that if you meet a hater leave them be. You are adding fuel to a fire and making the situation worse. They will hate no matter what so don't hate back
I never understood those homosexual guys who, for want of a better description - "Queen it up!". To me these guys are the homosexual equivalent of a highly testosterone charged jock who needs to wear his "manliness" on his sleeve while downing a keg of beer.
As a heterosexual male, my sexuality never comes up in conversation....unless I'm moving in on a target , however, I imagine this would the same if I were homosexual. I'm not saying a homosexual should hide their preference, but if I walked around proclaiming my sexual tastes I'm sure I'd hit some flak at some point.
While I'm here asking for enlightenment, I've also never understood the need homosexuals have for getting married?!? Marriage is a religious decree, and given that most religions renounce that lifestyle choice, why would any self respecting homosexual even want to give it the time of day? Like a black man "needing/demanding" the right to join the KKK.....
On topic. I find Angry Joe hilarious, honestly one of the best You tubers around.

I do, but I don't have any videos.

I can't stand teenage boys who proclaim how much they hate "modern music" and how much better "classic rock and metal" are. They also tend to think they are so much more mature than their peers and that they should have been born 30 years ago.
So... Shrike?
I prefer older rock and metal, but I don't hate modern stuff, and I'm a damn sight short of being more mature than my peers
but yeah, I don't hate any, but there are some who I don't see the appeal of and hate their fanbases. (KSI, RayWilliamJohnson, Smosh, Pewdiepie)

That's just like saying you should leave a racist person alone because you're making it worse. I think that's ridiculous, and they most definitely are causing harm to people.
He is the epitome of the ultra self centered annoying internet personality.
He actively gaks all over his own fans, he's awful at video games her tries to play and hes a massive hypocrite.
He played WoW for 7 years always complaining it was to easy. The next patch were they ramp up the difficulty? He quits because its to hard.
He's also "Fake" British, he lives in the USA
Ha! Someone else doesn't like him thought i was alone. As i said above i like alot of his videos but have largely stopped watching them recently as the man was starting to infringe on the content. Using the new comments as stealth way to disable them was the last straw for me so i unsubscribed. He shouldn't bite the hand that feeds (fans) so viciously, it's unbecoming and behavior that has repercussions.
I would agree that he's fake British lol, you can tell because he calls 'Computer Games', 'Video Games'. (I'm not saying either is better btw, don't even try).
And I thought I was alone thinking he was a insufferable gakker that thinks he is a 'video game expert'. Thank you.
While I have none I really hate, the amount of Youtube personalities that annoy me and tick me off are more than I can count on my two hands.

I think the idea is that homosexuals want to be treated with the same respect as heterosexuals.
