twitters trends are kinda useless now so you gotta just click random things to find out if somebody did something, I clicked adin ross and found myself in a rabbit hole of rampant streamer transphobia
im not gonna link anything but just searching for adin/leafyishere/etc and its jarring
Maybe im overestimating how much reach they have as i thought adin was pretty big. Do yall think this is concerning or am i being alarmist
yes
I find the adin Ross type streamers very concerning just from the fact that they have huge audiences and influence on the youth
Turned into a stream last week on kick just out of pure curiosity. the entire chat was calling adin “L Jew” and saying s*** like “Hitler was right” whenever he says something they don’t agree with. Then he wishes death on other people and s***. Dude is just f***ing weird
i fw dj ghost
not really cause I don’t watch them and whenever I do see them on Twitter or something i just watch whatever clip there is and keep it moving
them and reaction channels gotta go
streamers and reaction channels are the same thing now lol
Homophobia and transphobia are absolutely on the rise, the comments on any homophobic YT short are filled with almost definitely teenage boys commenting 'Bro spoke nothing but facts' with thousands of likes
I did a dive into this recently, and on religious channels, the stuff that gets BY FAR the most engagement is the homophobic/transphobic stuff, and the response is overwhelmingly in support of their stance, kids saying 'I'm gonna quote this to the LGBGQ+ group at my school', really dire stuff
I only watch my gamer niggas. I’m good on niggas just talking
They need to exile internet influencers and their followers onto an island somewhere and let them live in their own bubble

On no boomer s*** but whenever I see news about Adin Ross it makes me happy I grew up in a time before streamers

I’m not saying you’re necessarily wrong but that edgy humor isn’t new to Gen Z lbr
