The New York Times<\/a>, he responded to the backlash against Jeremiah.<\/p>\nCasalegno said, \u201cThey tend to dislike him, yes. I don\u2019t check Instagram anymore, so I really haven\u2019t seen that much hate. The only thing that I see is my sister sending me the memes that are really funny. I think it\u2019s important to also understand and realize that this is a fictional story, and it\u2019s also not me.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s a single human being in the world who can carry the emotional negativity to the degree that stuff like this happens,\u201d he added, speaking about Jeremiah. \u201cAnd I think that\u2019s why Amazon did a good job of stepping in and being like, \u2018Hey, no bullying.\u2019 Though, not really going so well.\u201d<\/p>\n
Popular brands have also used the moment to weigh in on the rivalry. In one Instagram<\/a> post, Delta Air Lines shared a meme about which seat they\u2019d assign Jeremiah: the toilet seat.<\/p>\nCasalegno faced additional criticism for a Dunkin\u2019 Donuts ad where he dubbed himself \u201cthe king of summer\u201d and credited his \u201cgolden\u201d color to \u201cgenetics.\u201d Viewers accused the spot of reinforcing Eurocentric beauty standards.<\/p>\n
