Responding to the callout, Kjellberg argued that Mann was taking his out video \u201cout of context.\u201d The popular entertainer explained his criticism further and why he thinks the bullying PSA was \u201cpoorly executed.\u201d PewDiePie responds to Dhar Mann\u2019s call-out During his June 16 Last Week I Asked You segment, Pewds\u2019 fans had brought to his attention that Dhar Mann had called him out in his viral \u201cACTOR QUITS While On Set\u201d video. While initially laughing at being featured in the upload, Kjellberg responded to the content creator hitting out at him. \u201cWay to cut out all the context,\u201d he exclaimed. He then explained why he had made jokes about Mann\u2019s video back in April. \u201cIt was just for fun. Listen it was a bad video. I stand by that opinion.\u201d The YouTuber then argued that a video with a positive message can still be bad. \u201cEven if you try to do a positive message, which is great, it was delivered so poorly. There\u2019s no way you could understand it. And if anything, it just misconstrued [the message].\u201d He finished his response by adding: \u201cI don\u2019t think just because you are trying to do something good, that you are above criticism.\u201d (Topic starts at 14:34) PewDiePie appeared to be disappointed by Dhar Mann\u2019s reaction to the jokes he made months ago: \u201cIt seemed like Dhar Mann took it in stride until I saw this. So I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t care.\u201d Despite the drama, he told viewers that he ultimately wishes Mann well. \u201cJust know I have no actual ill will towards him. Not trying to cause tea here. He\u2019s doing his thing, I\u2019m doing my thing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
