So an employee who makes offensive, unpopular speech or content should be protected from his bosses firing him, especially when he represents the company? Like it or not, Pewdiepie represents Youtube in a large way and the things he says represents, in many respects, how others see Youtube. Is it an overreaction from Youtube and Maker? Maybe, there are arguments that support it. But it is their right to essentially fire him (his show was canceled, he was removed from his network, and he can't use the same advertisements as some other content creators can) if they don't like his speech (as long as the contract allows it). Just because he's allowed to say whatever he wants and justifies it as a joke doesn't mean he doesn't have consequences for those actions, and I strongly think that he chose to use Nazi and anti-Semetical symbolism for the shock value when he could have conveyed the same message with something less offensive.
