okay but he’s funded a non profit for five years without even mentioning it? i genuinely had no idea. the fact that he’s never once mentioned it or used it to be all “hey look at what im doing im a good person” is so admirable
Yes. The gist behind that story is to understand that he doesn't flaunt about all charitable things he does. There's a lot happening behind the scenes that not everyone knows. Not everything needed to be uploaded to social media.
@@igenuinelydontknow6144 yess!! and people were blaming him for not doing anything for the BLM movement, when in reality he supported the black community the whole time
Yes!! Although I do believe there is a time and place for being public about giving, (like matching donations during a charity stream to encourage others to give), a lot of the time it feels like it's for show and the fact that he did it privately really means a lot
people are saying his apology was "nonchalant" and "horrible".... literally what else is he supposed to do/say for it to be to your satisfaction???? if he cries, people will say he is just doing it to manipulate people...and if he doesn't then he doesn't "truly care". This is one of the most real apology videos I have ever seen imo
And for something he didn't need to do. The joke wasn't even that horrible, and it wasn't at the POC who were dying, but the BLM people who want to force them to use their platforms in ways they don't want to. Sad to see this type of behavior, he makes a small joke about something that was out of context? They say he needs to apologize and he deserves the doxxng coming his way. He apologizes? Nah, not good enough...
@@Urlame36 I don't understand the need to speak on it.. People kind of like to shove celebrities in a corner where they either speak up and it comes across as disingenuous/forced or they don't speak up so they must not support it... I really don't like the logic of some of these people.
@@Urlame36 thats the problem you guys pressure them to speak on it because of there platforms ..and they donate and support them they dojt have to announce it like other celebrities because then ppl like u say they only speak on it for popularity smh
his apology was genuine. anyone who knows tyler will know that. if people don’t forgive him after this then they’re just being dramatic and i don’t care if anyone disagrees. stop dragging this out.
As a person of color I really appreciated this. I wasn’t offended in the first place but I understand why others were offended. But I really don’t understand the death threats. Especially to his child who isn’t even a year old. That’s completely unacceptable
You really shouldn't understand how someone could be offended. Because it wasn't offense, it was outrage that someone dared to publicly oppose a strict status quo. These people hide behind equality and outrage while threatening children. Let that sink in.
People who are STILL cancelling him, he literally took a break to cry. He feels terrible for what he did. The joke wan’t cool, but there isn’t anything he can do now. Everyone does dumb things sometimes. He and Josh have done SO MANY more good things than bad. In my opinion, the best thing is to leave him alone and put it in the past at this point.
This man and his work saved my life a few years back, and I really can't explain how gut-wrenching it was to watch this. He's sorry. He really is. Please, let him grow and better himself like he asked. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone. He's done so much good. Allow him a mistake. We're all only human.
I genuinely cannot believe people would stoop this low. If you’re threatening a literal child, you are the worst kind of person, right next to child predators. Period.
Im still absolutely disgusted that this happened. I still think about it. I cried over it, it upset me so much. As a black person I did not see anything wrong with anything he said. The only fault in my opinion was with the response from the clique, and people who don't even know him. The clique can be SO TOXIC.
fr like this fandom is so sensitive for what 😭 I’m a POC and it was way more stressful being told “your favourite artist is a racist, you’re racist if you support him” than the joke itself
The fact that they assumed he was mocking BLM because he used the word "platform" was atrocious, I get that they want to help, but the majority of their responses were so off-putting. I mean, I saw people asking for Tyler to "use his platform" to speak about a myriad of things, not just BLM- so that solidifies their dissonance.
@@user77797 I feel often times when it comes to social media and cancelling people, it's the white people that are so quick to call people racist when the actual poc arent mad or as mad
The definition of racist is "prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized." The people over at Twitter don't even know the meaning of racist, they just throw it around like candy at whoever they don't like.
I definitely accept his apology as a black person, the joke felt insensitive and tone deaf. Also he should’ve just ignored people asking him to use his platform if he didn’t want to talk about it. However, death threats are obviously disgusting and never justified of course. The only thing I hate is that the comments here are filled with nonblack people dismissing the need for an apology in the first place and acting like people were wrong to be offended. Obviously it’s fine if you weren’t offended, but there are people who legitimately were which is also justified and it’s so rude to ignore that just bc you’re his fan. Again I respect the fact that he apologized, but I wish fans would stop being dismissive and I doubt he was ever going to be “cancelled” considering the size of his fan base anyway.
Exactly!! I've been a fan of top for about 5 or 6 years now and their music helped me get me through a lot of stuff in the past, but what Tyler did was still wrong and it did hurt a lot of people, including me. I'm glad that he acknowledged what he did and apologized for it but the thing that bothers me the most are the people in the clique telling others to get over it bc he did nothing wrong and that there's nothing to apologize for. No one gets to tell anyone how to feel about something, especially in this case where Tyler offended a lot of poc's. I don't agree with the whole cancel culture thing and I DEFINITELY do not agree with people sending threats to his family. I just wish Tyler and the fandom had been more empathetic towards this matter.
He GENUINELY feels bad. And all the toxic “clikkies” (they don’t even deserve to be called that) couldn’t see that when he made the apology tweet. Some of them still can’t see that now. He is SUCH a sweet person. He doesn’t deserve this kind of OUTRAGE over a small joke that happened months ago. And death threats? To him, his wife, and *his not even one year old daughter?!* Thats absolutely vile. He’s done SO MANY THINGS to help people. Heck, he donated 18,000 dollars to Make a Wish! He doesn’t even need to apologize.
I hate “clikkies” that part of their fans is so horribly toxic and some people think it’s okay or fun to hate and be extremely rude to a musician or creator just because they are famous or because they can. This has happened to sooo many bands, Waterparks, The 1975, and the list goes on and it gets to the point where the creators just stop social media.
It was not a "joke" it was incredibly insensitive, please understand tht what he did was wrong. Hes not perfect. Death threats are extra and unjustified but ppl are allowed to be upset by his tweet. 🙄
@@howdopplthinkofthese I know it was a joke and he is in the wrong and it was bad but people took it way too far and death threats are not just “extra” they were threatening a humans life and they were threatening his child’s life. No human deserves that
@@howdopplthinkofthese they were just upset, he deserves some heat but not to the extreme that he did no one should wish death upon someone and their child
i pushed this apology off for years. this group meant everything to me and i felt betrayed and confused and displaced, mostly by other fans. to feel a sense of control in a time where my ocd got worse, i cut them off and forced myself to move on. i hated a PART of myself for letting myself get hurt. i heard “the craving” on the radio and my mom convinced me to listen to Clancy. I cried through the entire thing. because i missed them, and i thought about the situation and how i felt shamed and judged anytime i'd miss them by my "friends" that i've now separated from, and i remember that this is the group that has never failed to understand me. i let my fear of getting hurt again stop me from understanding them in a confusing and overwhelming time. this apology was exactly what i needed to hear. i appreciate tyler's care and genuine approach to the conversation and i feel horrible that the hate got as far as death threats and doxxing. i'm happy to hear how much he cares for black lives and the black community, and i'm excited to enter back into the community knowing i support good, safe people who gave always meant well with the messages they've sent out to the world.
I wish he didn't apologize, he never even made fun of the community itself... even after apologizing, they are upset because he "didn't do it they way they wanted him to". Shows the crowd these people are
FR THO. Like a fuxking celebrity posting a black screen or saying blm makes a difference? It’s so dumb as a whole (not the movement just people FORCING EVERY celebrity to say something or else they are “cancelled”). You can say blm and still be racist. And just saying it means nothing. Not saying it means nothing. Plenty of people say blm then don’t try to enact change or only do it for clout(including politicians).
I think he’s been legitimately harassed and is scared. Blm says on their platform they want to break up nuclear families. He’s the anti-thesis of what the blm movement stands for. It has nothing to do with actual black lives.
@@pranavkrupanand2954 ... I know, right? It’s hard to not feel radicalized when you feel attacked. Every side is accusing the other side of being the offender while instigating. How does one deescalate and bring unity in dynamics like this? I feel like we are being subjected to psychological warfare. Divide and conquer.
Dude. I’ve never seen a celebrity apologise this sincerely. This just proves that the way you act on social media doesn’t determine your values as a person. There are plenty of people on Twitter who use their platforms for BLM, but are still racist in their actions/language. It’s all performative. Tyler actually does things for the community, that’s *more* than retweeting a donation link.
for all of you wondering, tyler is apologizing for a tweet he made a while back. As he wasn't speaking up about the BLM movement, fans started to pressurize him into doing so. The infamous tweet is a picture of tyler wearing platform shoes, captioned something along the lines of "since you wanted me to use my platforms"
@@arianapadicox are you with a critic brain? People are not allowed to threat death to a kid just because they're black. I understand how people could get offended... but man, you're disgusting if u keep hating a man for such a stupid thing. he wasn't talking about blm or lgbt or mental hillness... he was talking about people insulting him because he didn't post. He was just saying: "helo im not your puppet, i dont have to post what you want just because you insult me". Wake up.
As a black person, I found the platform joke hilarious. It didn’t offend me in any way at all, because I know it was a joke and I know he’s not racist. I’m so done with social media, and it hurts me and makes me physically sick. People are sending death threats to him, his family, his wife and his DAUGHTER. She isn’t even 1. Tyler I think the best thing to do is take Ro off socials because with fame comes drama and that’s very very toxic especially for a tiny child. I’m so deeply sorry Ty
I’m so proud of Tyler. I personally didn’t find what he said to be offensive but I can understand why they would be. It’s very important that he apologized to his audience and didn’t ignore it. It’s just great for people to see a grown ass man apologizing for an ill-timed joke. Love you guys
as one of the few black tøp stans, i'm disgusted how some ppl reacted to his joke. y'all are really too sensitive & it's insane that u want to control how someone uses their platform
This just proves that people in the internet takes advantage the anonymity that it provides and that internet are full of just bad people in general. It's a double edged sword, it can provide you happiness and knowledge but it's also filled with kids and raging people with no brain at all.
No matter your opinion on this man, those people had no right to threaten him, much less his family, and certainly much less than his daughter, who isn't even a year old. That is truly deplorable and disgusting behavior.
@@avacate6899 some people said that he needed to use His social media (in other words, platform) and he posted a photo of him wearing platform shoes instead of talking about blm. Kinda funny :) Don't @ me
The joke wasn't even about blm. How can y'all call him racist for that?? i've been in this fandom since 2013 and he's always talked about racism. The fact that yall don't know how many lives he's saved, including mine its ridiculous. Here a link of him talking about racism in 2016 twitter.com/welcometodema/status/1329076315035582464?s=19
i didn’t realize he even apologized for his shitty tweet because all the people that wanted to continue to bring this up refused to acknowledge that he finally addressed it. nowadays the moment an influencer/celebrity/etc apologizes for something problematic apparently it isn’t enough?? like what else do you want from them??
People who said that stuff and made him feel guilty are literally horrible and don’t care about anything they just wanna start stuff bc they don’t have real lives it’s sad
for y’all saying “He DiD nOtHinG wRonG, hE dIDnt nEeD tO aPologiZe” like i hope you realize that racism is not a linear plane. there are multiple levels of racism and he did need to apologize and he did need to address the issue. even if you personally weren’t offended, Black people were offended, me included. just because he’s your favorite artist doesn’t mean you need to suck up to him or not allow him to continue growing. he will continue getting things wrong because he’s human like all of us and i’m glad he addressed it.
With all due respect, while I think the joke was untasteful, he already posted about BLM beforehand, and the joke wasn't about BLM, it was about presumably white people demanding he use his platform to speak up about BLM. I think that's worth some criticism even if the joke didn't deal with it very well. (At least imo.) Think about it: a bunch of white people demanding a random celebrity to use their platform to speak up about something important. What a celebrity says doesn't matter, really. Instead these people could have been donating or doing something to make a difference. But apparently people threatened his life, his family's, and that of his baby daughter over this. This also happened a long time ago (months ago) and he already apologized on twitter when it happened, but anger and death threats continued, with people trying to cancel him. So he made this apology on top of that. So, in a personal analysis of the joke, it wasn't about POC. It was about tons of white people demanding him to use his platform.
Tyler just ended their careers in a matter of five minutes and twenty seconds. I felt this bro, I genuinely did, I honestly don’t know what he did wrong but if he took the time to apologize and clear himself a bit, thats takes guts. I’m glad he did, that counts for alot more, cause we all make mistakes and aren’t perfect. He is truly a wise dude.
Im a person of color and i didnt take any offense to what he posted, i understand he did wrong but people took it too far and theres no reason to doxx or go after him and his family. I got the light humor he was trying to convey, i didnt take offense to it.
can i just swoop in to say that is exactly why i defended him from the beginning.. i was almost sure that he donated money in one way or another. the fact that he never even mentioned it before shows how beautiful he is even more
The people who got offended deserved an apology. That joke came off as mocking the people asking him to use his platform on a topic and movement that is very serious and people need to talk about.
This is coming from a man who doesn’t know how to explain somethings he got the chance to speak up and tell everyone he was sorry and this man was crying,some people don’t even say sorry stop threatening them what happens if someone threatens you,y’all would not like it righttt????
Very quick summary: He made a joke about "People are asking me to use my platforms so here they are" showing a picture of him wearing platform shoes. Based on his later tweets of the day, this was made as a "haha but actually I am going to really use my platform" (read Twitter account) "to do stuff." as he posted a thing on Mental health. While I and many others didn't find it offensive, a significant group did, thinking it dismissive of world events and the blm movement. Read into it as you will.
@@Drac_YT seems like a pretty innocent joke to me. The whole BLM thing is so touchy its sketchy to say anything about it, especially if you're rich and white. I hate people cant just have a discussion instead of just getting angry and arguing. We as humans are so much better than all this. Like I mean, if anyone has seen interviews and stuff with this man (Tyler Joseph) you would know hes got a literal heart of gold and wouldnt mean to hurt anyone, but that's not considered. No one wants to take the time to actually care about the person they are attacking they just want to hurt them. That's a huge problem that leads to horrible shit like racism
That is awful, threatening Tyler's family! His beautiful lil girl and his lovely wife! you just don't do that! Only the worst kind of monsters do things like that!
He’s so soft 🥺 this mans is one of the sweetest band dudes out there. People will take this wrong and say his apology was crap. I love this guy, he will never stop being my favorite and he doesn’t deserve all the hate, we don’t deserve him...
You've completely missed the point of what he was saying. Tyler admitted he was wrong, and the joke wasn't right. This isn't about having a "sense a humour". Even if you disagree, respect what Tyler said and especially respect those who were hurt by his joke.
@@garlicgoob I clearly respect Tyler and respect what he has said. What I dont agree with is the fact that people tried to force him to take a stand against something before he was ready. Maybe you should read some of the other comments from people below saying they are of color and weren't offended by his joke. He didn't make a racist slight against anyone.
What is wrong with some people?? Death threats??!? That's HORRIBLE!! If you are a REALLY in the clique, you should KNOW and understand Tyler's humor, and much more about him. I, as well as millions of others understood. I thought I was sensitive,.. dang. It really is not about sensitivity, it's a society gone absolutely wild!
Hey, Tyler. I’ve been a fan of you guys since I was introduced at the time of Blurryface’s release. While I may not condone what was said, I want you to know that I am truly sorry you had to deal with your wife and less than year old daughter receiving death threats, and it going this far over this. It’s extremely grown up of you to take this time to apologize and I happen to know that being an ally is all about knowing where your heart is in the end. Just keep doing what you’re doing, it’ll blow over. Thank you for the apology. You guys are awesome.
No one's talking about the decorations are awesome and just forgive him and start being nice don't theart him and that's wrong it easier to be nice than mean after Tyler and Jøsh bid more gøød than bad
Can we just take a second and realize that he made a joke over shoes and everyone flipped the fuck out over it because it didn’t have to do with everything going on? I get wanting him to address the situation at hand but it seems to me he was trying to be a little light in a dark world. Which by the way is what he does best. This world just needs to grow the fuck up.
I just looked up his tweet after watching this, not knowing any of the context. I thought this was about some insensitive joke from years ago that could come across as racist or something... but wow. He literally made a joke about platform shoes and people are freaking out over it. The fact that people nowadays expect you to agree with their opinions and viewpoints, or you're evil and get cancelled is actually insane. He shouldn't have to be manipulated into agreeing with some movement bc people tell him to. It's his life, it's his platform, can choose to or not to support whatever he wants and that's okay. My god the "woke left" genuinely are the most toxic and single-minded people on the planet.
this is what apologies should be like. i understand how some people can be offended by the joke, but idk what else you expect him to do other than apologize.
I'm really glad he apologized. I get he didn't have bad intentions, and I'll never be able to fully understand the immense pressure he's under as a celebrity, but his jokes were immature and poorly timed. While I'm still a bit hurt by it, I definitely do not condone sending death threats to anyone ever, thats going way too far and just makes the people who are actually trying to educate and make a change look bad too
i’m not in the place to talk but please Tyler is such a kind soul like the most precious person i’ve ever seen PLEASE be responsible for your words no matter what anyone has said. sending death threats over a simple joke??? are y’all kidding me. i love him so much. he truly regrets, you can see that.
the hypocrisy of the internet. talks about wanting peace and justice but then sends death threats to his wife about his daughter. fuck you internet. love you Tyler
he apologized.that's the difference , its indifferent to keep picking on a mistake once a person has understood their mistake and even apologized for it and clearly the timing on this one was bad. so we can clearly see a pattern here of deluded , ignorant people jumping on this bandwagon going on around and cancelling people , like James Charles , all aboard the Tati wagon first and then literally jumped to the James wagon taking a u-turn ,honestly such an obnoxious culture going on ,it would have been the best filter on internet had it not been used or rather misused by these people in the extremes.
The fact that people have been threatening him and his family because of this is so gross, he made a mistake guys. He made a mistake, owned up to the fact that he made a mistake, and now we can all move on.
I totally understand people frustrations about the tweet and people have the right to not be ok, sad or mad with it but doing threats to his family and friends? Thats really wrong! That way you lose your credibility!
I can't believe anyone really wants the worst for Tyler and his family. He did so much for us, so many people found salvation in his music and listened to his words and stayed alive.. I can't believe it. Neither Tyler, nor his family, nor anyone else deserves to be treated like this.
i will admit. that joke he made was a bit distasteful, but hey, we all make distasteful decisions every now and then. doesn’t mean we’re not accountable for them.
As a person apart of the black clique, I accept this apology. Only us that are apart of the black clique can only accept his apology if they want to. Fuck the "fans" or the "clikkies" that threatened his family because instead of wanting to educate him they attacked him cause "he's a grown man," who should "know what it is," I'm sorry Ty that it got out of hand.
Tyler legit did absolutely nothing wrong. He is known to be funny but also cryptic and celebrities should NOT have to feel this kind of pressure. their career is so hard. people who are still cancelling him and threatening his family?? that’s messed up.
I think the joke was definitely in bad taste, but his apologize seems genuine and I really hope that this is a moment for him to reflect and grow on the subjects. Definitely my favorite band and it’s nice to see him finally address the topic after this whole year

I've been a fan of top for about 5 or 6 years now and their music helped me get me through a lot of stuff in the past, but what Tyler did was still wrong and it did hurt a lot of people, including me. I'm glad that he acknowledged what he did and apologized for it but the thing that bothers me the most are the people in the clique telling others to get over it bc he did nothing wrong and that there's nothing to apologize for. No one gets to tell anyone how to feel about something, especially in this case where Tyler offended a lot of poc's. I don't agree with the whole cancel culture thing and I DEFINITELY do not agree with people sending threats to his family. I just wish Tyler and the fandom had been more empathetic towards this matter.
Agreed !
He GENUINELY feels bad. And all the toxic “clikkies” (they don’t even deserve to be called that) couldn’t see that when he made the apology tweet. Some of them still can’t see that now. He is SUCH a sweet person. He doesn’t deserve this kind of OUTRAGE over a small joke that happened months ago. And death threats? To him, his wife, and *his not even one year old daughter?!* Thats absolutely vile. He’s done SO MANY THINGS to help people. Heck, he donated 18,000 dollars to Make a Wish! He doesn’t even need to apologize.
I hate “clikkies” that part of their fans is so horribly toxic and some people think it’s okay or fun to hate and be extremely rude to a musician or creator just because they are famous or because they can. This has happened to sooo many bands, Waterparks, The 1975, and the list goes on and it gets to the point where the creators just stop social media.
It was not a "joke" it was incredibly insensitive, please understand tht what he did was wrong. Hes not perfect. Death threats are extra and unjustified but ppl are allowed to be upset by his tweet. 🙄
@@howdopplthinkofthese I know it was a joke and he is in the wrong and it was bad but people took it way too far and death threats are not just “extra” they were threatening a humans life and they were threatening his child’s life. No human deserves that
@@howdopplthinkofthese they were just upset, he deserves some heat but not to the extreme that he did no one should wish death upon someone and their child
@@hailvoid8035 okay tht was worded wrong on my part, but I still stand by ppls right to be upset, not to the extreme length of death threats tho
i pushed this apology off for years. this group meant everything to me and i felt betrayed and confused and displaced, mostly by other fans. to feel a sense of control in a time where my ocd got worse, i cut them off and forced myself to move on. i hated a PART of myself for letting myself get hurt. i heard “the craving” on the radio and my mom convinced me to listen to Clancy. I cried through the entire thing. because i missed them, and i thought about the situation and how i felt shamed and judged anytime i'd miss them by my "friends" that i've now separated from, and i remember that this is the group that has never failed to understand me. i let my fear of getting hurt again stop me from understanding them in a confusing and overwhelming time. this apology was exactly what i needed to hear. i appreciate tyler's care and genuine approach to the conversation and i feel horrible that the hate got as far as death threats and doxxing. i'm happy to hear how much he cares for black lives and the black community, and i'm excited to enter back into the community knowing i support good, safe people who gave always meant well with the messages they've sent out to the world.
"We can't change what's done. We can only move on."
lol “Can’t change what you’ve done, start fresh next semester” |-/
Idgaf what anyone says, he doesn't have to use his platform for what you guys want
IT PHYSICALLY HURTS ME TO WATCH HIM THIS WAY
I wish he didn't apologize, he never even made fun of the community itself... even after apologizing, they are upset because he "didn't do it they way they wanted him to". Shows the crowd these people are
FR THO. Like a fuxking celebrity posting a black screen or saying blm makes a difference? It’s so dumb as a whole (not the movement just people FORCING EVERY celebrity to say something or else they are “cancelled”). You can say blm and still be racist. And just saying it means nothing. Not saying it means nothing. Plenty of people say blm then don’t try to enact change or only do it for clout(including politicians).
exactly. people are dragging this out for the drama now.
I think he’s been legitimately harassed and is scared. Blm says on their platform they want to break up nuclear families. He’s the anti-thesis of what the blm movement stands for. It has nothing to do with actual black lives.
@@talithakoumi5728 its so bad, this hive mentality , like 'if you arent with us, then you are against us' like wtf
@@pranavkrupanand2954 ... I know, right? It’s hard to not feel radicalized when you feel attacked. Every side is accusing the other side of being the offender while instigating. How does one deescalate and bring unity in dynamics like this? I feel like we are being subjected to psychological warfare. Divide and conquer.
Dude. I’ve never seen a celebrity apologise this sincerely. This just proves that the way you act on social media doesn’t determine your values as a person. There are plenty of people on Twitter who use their platforms for BLM, but are still racist in their actions/language. It’s all performative. Tyler actually does things for the community, that’s *more* than retweeting a donation link.
I wasn't angry at him, I will always be for him, he helps me
I teared up a lil
Same ❤❤
His voice makes me cry
Death threats for a dad joke. Sums up the current climate well.
for all of you wondering, tyler is apologizing for a tweet he made a while back. As he wasn't speaking up about the BLM movement, fans started to pressurize him into doing so. The infamous tweet is a picture of tyler wearing platform shoes, captioned something along the lines of "since you wanted me to use my platforms"
I might get hate from this but I actually laughed when I saw the tweet
@@coldtacos965 I didn’t even get it at first but yeah, it was funny to some people
I thought it was hilarious. I can't stand the Twitter hivemind. Twitter is literally nothing but toxicity these days.
I laughed at it for 10 mins, it was a nice pun, don't @ me :)
That’s not even that offensive it’s pretty funny
Didn't need to apologize in the first place. Y'all are clowns
DoubleU159 I said that during the stream. It was a joke. I laughed. I even posted it on my Instagram
Excatly
100% agree
Are u white
@@arianapadicox are you with a critic brain? People are not allowed to threat death to a kid just because they're black. I understand how people could get offended... but man, you're disgusting if u keep hating a man for such a stupid thing. he wasn't talking about blm or lgbt or mental hillness... he was talking about people insulting him because he didn't post. He was just saying: "helo im not your puppet, i dont have to post what you want just because you insult me". Wake up.
As a black person, I found the platform joke hilarious. It didn’t offend me in any way at all, because I know it was a joke and I know he’s not racist. I’m so done with social media, and it hurts me and makes me physically sick. People are sending death threats to him, his family, his wife and his DAUGHTER. She isn’t even 1. Tyler I think the best thing to do is take Ro off socials because with fame comes drama and that’s very very toxic especially for a tiny child. I’m so deeply sorry Ty
I’m so proud of Tyler. I personally didn’t find what he said to be offensive but I can understand why they would be. It’s very important that he apologized to his audience and didn’t ignore it. It’s just great for people to see a grown ass man apologizing for an ill-timed joke. Love you guys
as one of the few black tøp stans, i'm disgusted how some ppl reacted to his joke. y'all are really too sensitive & it's insane that u want to control how someone uses their platform
as another black ex top fan I’m disgusted by his joke and truly wish he kept it in the drafts.
We need to show grace to each other because none are without fault. If you can’t forgive, you can’t be forgiven
This just proves that people in the internet takes advantage the anonymity that it provides and that internet are full of just bad people in general. It's a double edged sword, it can provide you happiness and knowledge but it's also filled with kids and raging people with no brain at all.
YES
Not my apology to accept but I'm so glad he said that
No matter your opinion on this man, those people had no right to threaten him, much less his family, and certainly much less than his daughter, who isn't even a year old. That is truly deplorable and disgusting behavior.
also people are tryna call racist bc of the line "I wasnt raised in the hood but I know a thing or two about pain and darkness" are yall ok??
It’s a super cringe lyric and I say this as someone who likes most of their music
THUS IS OUTRAGEOUS HE WAS TALKING ABIUT MENTAL HEALTH, SOMETHING THAT IS IMPORTANT TO HIM. I love you Tylar
He shouldn’t have to apologize. The joke was frickin hilarious
no it wasn’t
what was the joke? i dont know what happened
@@avacate6899 some people said that he needed to use His social media (in other words, platform) and he posted a photo of him wearing platform shoes instead of talking about blm. Kinda funny :) Don't @ me
@@santicarbajal3927 ohhh okay i mean ig thats kinda funny and our baby tyjo didnt mean any harm but i can see how some people coulda been offended
i agree with you
Proof that many will remember the one bad not the million good some do
he tries making the situation lighter with A DAD JOKE. yes it wasnt good to do and he shouldnt have but you dont have to threaten him over it.
Agreed. It wasn't even about BLM, it was about the platform, and they did not like that at all.
@@RespawnJupiter that was about blm what are you talking about? Why do you think he even apologized for?? Girl....
@@jennijenni793 HE DOESNT TALK IN THAT TWEET ABOUT BLM, IT WAS A DAD JOKE TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WERE PRESSIONATING HIM FOR NO POSTING OMGGGG
@@jennijenni793 he apologized for it because he has seen that a lot of people has offended without reason
The joke wasn't even about blm. How can y'all call him racist for that?? i've been in this fandom since 2013 and he's always talked about racism. The fact that yall don't know how many lives he's saved, including mine its ridiculous. Here a link of him talking about racism in 2016 twitter.com/welcometodema/status/1329076315035582464?s=19
No need to apologise
he doesn't have to apologize over people cancelling him for an innocent joke, its ridiculous , he doesn't have blame
Twenty Pilots literally saved my life and I cannot believe people were sending death threats
i didn’t realize he even apologized for his shitty tweet because all the people that wanted to continue to bring this up refused to acknowledge that he finally addressed it. nowadays the moment an influencer/celebrity/etc apologizes for something problematic apparently it isn’t enough?? like what else do you want from them??
People who said that stuff and made him feel guilty are literally horrible and don’t care about anything they just wanna start stuff bc they don’t have real lives it’s sad
If he doesn’t want to say anything, don’t force him or threaten him for you to get your way... that really just makes it un genuine
for y’all saying “He DiD nOtHinG wRonG, hE dIDnt nEeD tO aPologiZe” like i hope you realize that racism is not a linear plane. there are multiple levels of racism and he did need to apologize and he did need to address the issue. even if you personally weren’t offended, Black people were offended, me included. just because he’s your favorite artist doesn’t mean you need to suck up to him or not allow him to continue growing. he will continue getting things wrong because he’s human like all of us and i’m glad he addressed it.
With all due respect, while I think the joke was untasteful, he already posted about BLM beforehand, and the joke wasn't about BLM, it was about presumably white people demanding he use his platform to speak up about BLM.
I think that's worth some criticism even if the joke didn't deal with it very well. (At least imo.) Think about it: a bunch of white people demanding a random celebrity to use their platform to speak up about something important. What a celebrity says doesn't matter, really. Instead these people could have been donating or doing something to make a difference.
But apparently people threatened his life, his family's, and that of his baby daughter over this.
This also happened a long time ago (months ago) and he already apologized on twitter when it happened, but anger and death threats continued, with people trying to cancel him. So he made this apology on top of that.
So, in a personal analysis of the joke, it wasn't about POC. It was about tons of white people demanding him to use his platform.
Tyler just ended their careers in a matter of five minutes and twenty seconds. I felt this bro, I genuinely did, I honestly don’t know what he did wrong but if he took the time to apologize and clear himself a bit, thats takes guts. I’m glad he did, that counts for alot more, cause we all make mistakes and aren’t perfect. He is truly a wise dude.
It was a joke, y'all are so sensitive smh.
Im a person of color and i didnt take any offense to what he posted, i understand he did wrong but people took it too far and theres no reason to doxx or go after him and his family. I got the light humor he was trying to convey, i didnt take offense to it.
honestly this is why I like Tyler and Josh
even tho Josh isn't in this they still make a great duo
Man like I feel bad for him 😕
can i just swoop in to say that is exactly why i defended him from the beginning.. i was almost sure that he donated money in one way or another. the fact that he never even mentioned it before shows how beautiful he is even more
I'm offended that he apologized XD. Tyler, I want you to apologize for apologizing, or I will cancel youuuuu
The people who got offended deserved an apology. That joke came off as mocking the people asking him to use his platform on a topic and movement that is very serious and people need to talk about.
@@Thisisanoldaccount yes, and he had every right to do that
This is coming from a man who doesn’t know how to explain somethings he got the chance to speak up and tell everyone he was sorry and this man was crying,some people don’t even say sorry stop threatening them what happens if someone threatens you,y’all would not like it righttt????
what a guy, shame on people who threaten the families of people they think they disagree with
I wish this was a better apology
there are so many reasons this makes me emotional
Can somebody hit me with that sweet sweet context
just look up "tyler joseph platforms" or "tyler joseph cancelled," its honestly too much to unpack in a youtube comment lol
Very quick summary: He made a joke about "People are asking me to use my platforms so here they are" showing a picture of him wearing platform shoes. Based on his later tweets of the day, this was made as a "haha but actually I am going to really use my platform" (read Twitter account) "to do stuff." as he posted a thing on Mental health. While I and many others didn't find it offensive, a significant group did, thinking it dismissive of world events and the blm movement. Read into it as you will.
@@Drac_YT seems like a pretty innocent joke to me. The whole BLM thing is so touchy its sketchy to say anything about it, especially if you're rich and white. I hate people cant just have a discussion instead of just getting angry and arguing. We as humans are so much better than all this. Like I mean, if anyone has seen interviews and stuff with this man (Tyler Joseph) you would know hes got a literal heart of gold and wouldnt mean to hurt anyone, but that's not considered. No one wants to take the time to actually care about the person they are attacking they just want to hurt them. That's a huge problem that leads to horrible shit like racism
That is awful, threatening Tyler's family! His beautiful lil girl and his lovely wife! you just don't do that! Only the worst kind of monsters do things like that!
He’s so soft 🥺 this mans is one of the sweetest band dudes out there. People will take this wrong and say his apology was crap. I love this guy, he will never stop being my favorite and he doesn’t deserve all the hate, we don’t deserve him...
You can hear he’s hurt dude!
Agreed🤝😔
I'm sorry people are jerks and have no sense of humor, Tyler.
You've completely missed the point of what he was saying. Tyler admitted he was wrong, and the joke wasn't right. This isn't about having a "sense a humour". Even if you disagree, respect what Tyler said and especially respect those who were hurt by his joke.
@@garlicgoob I clearly respect Tyler and respect what he has said. What I dont agree with is the fact that people tried to force him to take a stand against something before he was ready. Maybe you should read some of the other comments from people below saying they are of color and weren't offended by his joke. He didn't make a racist slight against anyone.
What is wrong with some people?? Death threats??!? That's HORRIBLE!! If you are a REALLY in the clique, you should KNOW and understand Tyler's humor, and much more about him. I, as well as millions of others understood.
I thought I was sensitive,.. dang.
It really is not about sensitivity, it's a society gone absolutely wild!
Hey, Tyler. I’ve been a fan of you guys since I was introduced at the time of Blurryface’s release. While I may not condone what was said, I want you to know that I am truly sorry you had to deal with your wife and less than year old daughter receiving death threats, and it going this far over this. It’s extremely grown up of you to take this time to apologize and I happen to know that being an ally is all about knowing where your heart is in the end. Just keep doing what you’re doing, it’ll blow over. Thank you for the apology. You guys are awesome.
No one's talking about the decorations are awesome and just forgive him and start being nice don't theart him and that's wrong it easier to be nice than mean after Tyler and Jøsh bid more gøød than bad
Deadass had to read what he did and when I saw the tweet I genuinely thought people meant shoes, grow up not everyone has to speak up for a movement.
This is the first video I've ever seen Tyler being serious. He's almost always being a jokester. We love you Ty.
Can we just take a second and realize that he made a joke over shoes and everyone flipped the fuck out over it because it didn’t have to do with everything going on? I get wanting him to address the situation at hand but it seems to me he was trying to be a little light in a dark world. Which by the way is what he does best. This world just needs to grow the fuck up.
I just looked up his tweet after watching this, not knowing any of the context. I thought this was about some insensitive joke from years ago that could come across as racist or something... but wow. He literally made a joke about platform shoes and people are freaking out over it. The fact that people nowadays expect you to agree with their opinions and viewpoints, or you're evil and get cancelled is actually insane. He shouldn't have to be manipulated into agreeing with some movement bc people tell him to. It's his life, it's his platform, can choose to or not to support whatever he wants and that's okay. My god the "woke left" genuinely are the most toxic and single-minded people on the planet.
I love him and his family so whoever gave them death threats, you guys have another thing coming
this is what apologies should be like. i understand how some people can be offended by the joke, but idk what else you expect him to do other than apologize.
I remember I was like them I didnt like the things Tyler said but I realized that THEY WERE JOKES that he made
I'm really glad he apologized. I get he didn't have bad intentions, and I'll never be able to fully understand the immense pressure he's under as a celebrity, but his jokes were immature and poorly timed. While I'm still a bit hurt by it, I definitely do not condone sending death threats to anyone ever, thats going way too far and just makes the people who are actually trying to educate and make a change look bad too
i’m not in the place to talk but please Tyler is such a kind soul like the most precious person i’ve ever seen PLEASE be responsible for your words no matter what anyone has said. sending death threats over a simple joke??? are y’all kidding me. i love him so much. he truly regrets, you can see that.
the hypocrisy of the internet. talks about wanting peace and justice but then sends death threats to his wife about his daughter. fuck you internet. love you Tyler
The people who sent death threats are completely separate from the people who wanted an apology I hope you know that.
@@Thisisanoldaccount i get that not everyone who wanted an apology was like this, but a lot were also one in the same.
Oh my.. I hate that he has to deal with shit like that. What is wrong with you guys?! He looks so sad and tired it breaks my heart.
he apologized.that's the difference , its indifferent to keep picking on a mistake once a person has understood their mistake and even apologized for it and clearly the timing on this one was bad.
so we can clearly see a pattern here of deluded , ignorant people jumping on this bandwagon going on around and cancelling people , like James Charles , all aboard the Tati wagon first and then literally jumped to the James wagon taking a u-turn ,honestly such an obnoxious culture going on ,it would have been the best filter on internet had it not been used or rather misused by these people in the extremes.
The fact that people have been threatening him and his family because of this is so gross, he made a mistake guys. He made a mistake, owned up to the fact that he made a mistake, and now we can all move on.
Bro he shouldn't have backed down to these crazy people the man did nothing wrong
I missed the stream!!!!!
Tyler we forgive you, it's okay
Tyler Joseph is a good dude! Good on him for being the better person!
I totally understand people frustrations about the tweet and people have the right to not be ok, sad or mad with it but doing threats to his family and friends? Thats really wrong! That way you lose your credibility!
exactly
yeah :/
I can't believe anyone really wants the worst for Tyler and his family. He did so much for us, so many people found salvation in his music and listened to his words and stayed alive.. I can't believe it. Neither Tyler, nor his family, nor anyone else deserves to be treated like this.
I’m really confused
i will admit. that joke he made was a bit distasteful, but hey, we all make distasteful decisions every now and then. doesn’t mean we’re not accountable for them.
I just love him...
As a person apart of the black clique, I accept this apology. Only us that are apart of the black clique can only accept his apology if they want to. Fuck the "fans" or the "clikkies" that threatened his family because instead of wanting to educate him they attacked him cause "he's a grown man," who should "know what it is," I'm sorry Ty that it got out of hand.
I'm glad he apologized
People are disgusting. This man made a joke cause people were demanding he do things when they said, as they said, as if he’s some puppet.
i am literally crying watching this and i don't even know wtf he said
Still more sincere than Travis Scott’s apology
ok whos cutting onions?
this comes to show how soft people are nowadays and how offended people get it’s ashame
Some people are really snowflakes.. He says one small thing, and people send DEATH THREATS TO HIS CHILD???
Are u black
@@jtwinny4105 no, what does that have to do with what I said?
Tyler legit did absolutely nothing wrong. He is known to be funny but also cryptic and celebrities should NOT have to feel this kind of pressure. their career is so hard. people who are still cancelling him and threatening his family?? that’s messed up.
I think the joke was definitely in bad taste, but his apologize seems genuine and I really hope that this is a moment for him to reflect and grow on the subjects. Definitely my favorite band and it’s nice to see him finally address the topic after this whole year
I am literally so fkn proud of him ❤
Bruh that platform joke was a great joke I mean honestly these people are petty as frick
guys everyone need to chill. that pun? that dad joke? hilarious, brightened my day. i understand that some people were offended, but there was no need to make him cry. Let's just chill for a while, ok?
