Asmongold, a popular streamer, has come to the defense of PewDiePie, suggesting that criticism aimed at the YouTube creator stems from resentment over his success.
The conversation started when PewDiePie announced he was stopping his daily video series to safeguard his son’s privacy. This led some social media users to revisit past issues involving the creator.
After facing criticism online, Asmongold explained that PewDiePie often avoids drama, but still gets targeted due to his fame and success.
Asmongold claims PewDiePie hate is because of his success
Asmongold pointed out that PewDiePie is a good person, but people still hold a grudge. He explained that even if PewDiePie lived a completely flawless life – running his own AI, living privately in Japan, and avoiding all political statements – people would still remember and criticize his past use of a racial slur.

He explained that the core issue was simply dislike – they resented his success and were attempting to undermine him, which he found humiliating to witness.
Since moving to Japan with his wife, Marzia, PewDiePie hasn’t been as active on YouTube. He now mainly creates videos about his personal life, like fitness updates and daily vlogs, rather than the broader content he used to make.
The content creator received considerable criticism in 2017 for using a racial slur during a live stream of the game PUBG. He subsequently issued a public apology, admitting the comment was wrong and expressing his regret.
