David Dobrik comes under fire after claiming he \u201chates nature\u201d YouTube: New Views Podcast HighlightsYouTube star David Dobrik might be known for his charitable giveaways and wholesome content, but he\u2019s coming under fire from critics after claiming he\u2019s not a huge fan of being out in mother nature. [jwplayer mgzBNoPb] For those out of the loop, David Dobrik is one of YouTube\u2019s most popular content creators, best known for giving away huge amounts of cash to fans and those in need (as well as holding contests with such prizes as Teslas). Despite David\u2019s philanthropic nature, it seems that the vlogger is coming under fire from commenters online, who are upset at a statement he made during an episode of his \u2018VIEWS\u2019 podcast with fellow YouTuber Jason Nash. In the episode, Dobrik goes on a long spiel about why he \u201chates nature,\u201d explaining that roughing it in the outdoors just isn\u2019t for him. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CBmRLJtAX5r\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link \u201cI cannot describe to you how much I f***ing hate nature,\u201d Dobrik began. \u201cI never knew I could be so angry at something. I was hiking in the mountains, and everybody I saw, I was just getting angry at. I was like, \u2018Why are you here?\u2019 I was so mad!\u201d \u201cIt feels so wrong, because everybody loves nature,\u201d he continued. \u201c\u2026what is so cool about something that\u2019s been there\u2026 for millions of years! What is so cool about that? \u2026it feels like everything I\u2019ve worked for has been erased. I\u2019m stuck with the dirt and the grass and the leaves.\u201d (Topic begins at 4:20) Unsurprisingly, Dobrik was promptly assailed by angry commenters who took issue with his opinions on the world around him \u2014 more specifically, on his \u201cannoyed\u201d attitude about something as mundane as nature. \u201cI don\u2019t justify it, but now I understand the hate that you get for being so closed-minded and kind of a d**k to your friends or the planet,\u201d one listener wrote. \u201cI know that you have done great things like charities and donations. But DUDE, grow up a bit, you live in a bubble.\u201d \u201cI thought David was cool until he said he doesn\u2019t appreciate nature,\u201d another chimed in. \u201cLike what?\u201d While this is far from the first time Dobrik has faced backlash from his fanbase, it seems that his attitude in his recent podcast episodes are starting to turn some listeners off from the fandom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
