Seth Rogen Is Facing Backlash After "Downplaying" YouTuber Casey Neistat's Experience With Car Theft

Seth Rogen is still facing backlash over his response to a YouTuber's experience with auto theft earlier this week. Days after he commented on the break-in, Seth's name continued trending on Twitter as users called out the actor's conspicuous privilege.

For those not already privy to the details of this social media exchange, here's what happened: Casey Neistat, who once operated a namesake YouTube channel that found huge success on the platform, tweeted Wednesday to inform followers that his family's "cars got robbed" somewhere in Los Angeles. People are now saying Seth downplayed the anecdote in his reply.

"Dude I've lived here for over 20 years. You're nuts haha," Seth wrote. "It's lovely here. Don't leave anything valuable [in the car]. It's called living in a big city."

Casey took issue with Seth's response. The YouTuber said he was angry and felt "violated," before explaining that decorations for his young daughter's birthday party were initially stolen from the vehicle.
