Couldn't cope with more than a minute of that shite.

Reading that, I thought that's quite sad, it's less than five minutes long, I'll watch it all.

But I turned it off before two minutes were up. Has there ever been anything more dull on the internet?

I managed 45 seconds. I’m not a big fan of slasher/gore movies, and it was so obvious the guy was about to meet some kind of horrific fate once he walked into the mansion, got in the lift and started talking about “people being taken out” and “we created more than enough blood”.

“TY” (he’s the chap in one of the videos above repeatedly saying ‘Maupay you’re a cheat’) still hasn’t forgiven Maupay and they’re STILL talking about it in one of AFTVs new videos today. Bless.

This is moving into 'walking on egg shells' territory.

I also had never heard of the DVD term.
Perhaps I'm looking at it too innocently. Is it really because it's seen as a generalisation that South Koreans produce a lot of pirate DVD's?
I always thought it was the Chinese, I used to buy all mine when on trips to Shanghai.

His laughable, barefaced lie of an excuse is almost as pathetic as Henderson’s for his Nazi salute:

After the clip was widely shared on social media, Callegari appeared alongside channel owner Robbie Lyle in a new video where he attempted to explain the comment was not derogatory but in fact an attempt to mock Spurs. Callegari claimed the comment was a reference to Tottenham releasing a DVD to celebrate their 2-1 victory over Arsenal on Sunday.

From my experience growing up bang in the middle of the two North London clubs, it has always been an overtly racist term to refer to Asian people in general. If 15 years ago, a 14 year old at my school was suspended for calling someone it, then "Claude" absolutely knew what he meant. Obviously, I'm not having a go at you at all, but the area I grew up in, it was a definite thing.

The additional issue is that after AFTV have openly condemned Racism and talked in depth about the BLM movement, they put out an interview with "Claude" where he explained his comment "DVD is going off" as a misspoken reference to Spurs producing DVD's of important games - comparable to Wayne "What's a Nazi" Hennessey. They only sacked him after their main sponsor pulled all their advertising.

Your explanation is helpful as it's a term I'd never heard of.
I do agree that his excuse for using the term didn't help him and made him look silly.

I agree it is, whats racist about that? Stereotypical maybe but nothing more. There was an equally ridiculous 'racism storm' when Millwall fans sung at him '3 for a fiver he sells 3 for a fiver' which to my 'shame' I found amusing.
