Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg is YouTube\u2019s most-subscribed independent content creator. Boasting over 111 million subscribers, it stands to reason that the internet pays attention to his every move\u2026 but his most recent video is sparking controversy after he mocked a deaf woman in a TikTok \u2018cringe compilation.\u2019 The TikToker, Scarlet May, is a disability activist who is trying to normalize using ASL with her long nails, which PewDiePie notably made fun of in his video. The incident prompted a wave of backlash online, with Scarlet May notably calling his actions \u201cweird\u201d and \u201cunnecessary\u201d in her own response to the matter. Hasan responds to PewDiePie drama Now, Twitch streamer Hasan has weighed in on the subject, saying that PewDiePie was likely being mean toward the TikToker without fully understanding her condition. \u201cI think he was being a bully,\u201d Hasan said in an episode of the H3 Podcast. \u201cLike a d**k, right? And I think that we have a tendency to immediately take something and turn it into from being a bully and a d**k to being like, oh this is ableist and racist.\u201d \u201cI really don\u2019t think he did this maliciously,\u201d host Ethan Klein followed up. \u201cBut I do think that we need to be more considerate about how we talk about things [like that].\u201d \u201cIf you\u2019re gonna be mean, be mean to f**kin\u2019 actual bad people,\u201d Hasan replied. \u201cDon\u2019t be mean to f**kin\u2019 random deaf girls on the internet.\u201d (Topic begins at 54:30) PewDiePie also published a statement on the subject 14 hours after his video was uploaded, calling the ordeal \u201can honest mistake\u201d and clarifying that he \u201chad no clue she was deaf.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
