The Internet wants to cancel David Dobrik after 'bulls**t apology"

Recently, David Dobrik got criticized for the apology video he posted for the number of controversies in which his name has come up.

David Dobrik has been accused by multiple former Vlog squad members of treating them like “garbage.” That was followed by the viral Seth Francois allegations, who said David had manipulated him into kissing a 47-year old man without his consent.

Since then, celebrities like Trisha Paytas and Ethan Klein have claimed that other underage girls have come to them with allegations of sexual assault against David Dobrik and his Vlog squad members. With so many allegations having come up, Dobrik posted an apology video that has got him in even more trouble.

What happened to David Dobrik: Why does the internet want to cancel him?

In the last few days, terms such as “David Dobrik rape” have been trending on Twitter. The reason? A woman named Hannah revealed in an interview with Insider that she was involved in a traumatic experience with Dominykas “Durte Dom” Zeglaitis, a member of Dobrik’s Vlog squad. Durte Dom played a character who was a sex addict, with Hannah and her seven college friends involved in a video shoot, back in November 2018.

Hannah was a 20-year old sophomore at a private liberal-arts school in Los Angeles. She accused Durte Dom of rape, and said that he took advantage of her when she was incapacitated with alcohol. The video in question had a “threesome plot,” and was taken off by Dobrik later at the request of Hannah.

Of course, this is not the first consent-related allegation levied against David Dobrik. BigNik had earlier said that he was continuously harassed by David Dobrik when they used to work together. David spoke about some of the incidents in the apology video, but has received even further criticism.

He apologized to Seth Francois and said that he has distanced himself from Durte Dom and some other Vlog squad members due to being “disappointed in them.” However, people were not at all pleased with the apology, for multiple reasons. It was said to be casual, dry, and did not include some of the more serious incidents.

A video of David Dobrik talking about “going to jail” during the shooting of the “threesome bit” vlog has been making rounds on Twitter. Hannah was involved in the shooting of the video, and the incident has not been talked about by David Dobrik himself. The overall situation has resulted in a plethora of people trying to have David Dobrik canceled.

As can be seen in the tweets, David Dobrik’s apology video has done him more harm than good, as far as his career is concerned.
