Dream Addresses Recent Controversy - Serious Twitch Stream

[@richydash]

[@ayuniaot]

@@TrojanPiece Dream just like.. came out for the 100th time to be *unlabeled* . But haters kept saying he is straight, and is lying to make sure he can make gay jokes. Of course Dream would be mad and replied to a tweet in his quote retweet that is being rude about it. But then, the person are scared to get hate and doxx, so they went private (Note that they came back and nothing happen). Dream haters and a bunch of content creators are mad at him for defending himself againts a small acc Then a clip about 8 years ago came about and a a clip of memes about KKK, and some edit about a Muslims came out and people are mad again (as a Muslims, I forgive him. He has been nothing but supportive towards us now). He had apologize, since it is stupid and he was a minor when editing it. His fans are not shock too considering he have shared he had been caught by police, skip class multiple time, and cheat on his test. Overall he was a bad kid, but as fans we know he had change cause he doesn't encourage it at all. Which is good So right now twitter is being very critical on his every move, and twisting his every words. He even get ratiod by his haters, and I can say now the hate is far too much. His fans can't even defend him anymore. Do I think what he did is not the best move/wrong? Yes. Do I think he deserves this much hate? No. Even before this, his New Year and Birthday tweets got hundreds of death threats and no one bet an eye on it. Even now, people openly said they want him doxx, or being unborn or some shet.. twitter is a crazy and wild place where people that toxic and hypocrite do exist

Moral of the story: most people don't understand advanced humor.

[@shadowatch4767]

Eh, I'd amend this as *some* people don't understand advanced humor. Which is understandable, because sometimes it takes context that not everybody has. And in general a large group of people will never 100% understand things or interpret things the same way, that's practically a law of human nature and should be taken into consideration in these situations even if there's a reasonable expectation that they try to understand before engaging.

[@cerealamog]

[@ApexB2Strong]

@@shadowatch4767 and yet people still consider if a large group is saying it then it must be true or majority wins sorta thing, m always against crowd for this same matter

[@shadowatch4767]

​@@ApexB2Strong Well... I do believe that always going against the crowd is a position too far in the opposite direction. Mob mentality is bad, but to say that something must be wrong if most people believe it is right is a rather irrelevant way of looking at things. In the grand scheme the crowd doesn't matter, because it's just the sum of everyone else's opinions. So whether you begin with going with the crowd or going against the crowd, you're letting the crowd shape your opinion before you have any good, independent reason for that opinion. Disregarding the crowd and starting from a neutral position is best for not letting other people's opinions misguide you. All that I meant to say by my last comment is that there will always be some people out of a big category (dream followers, soccer enthusiasts, musicians, the French, etc.) who for some reason or another don't get [the joke], for no fault of their own. And [the joke] will always be confused and occasionally be controversial to their minds for that reason. Replace [the joke] with pretty much anything said or done that depends on context to be fully understood, and this rule applies. Like how I included the French in that list. "Why the French?" Asks the first Frenchman. "They must hate us French, then!" The second Frenchman declares angrily, neither understanding [the joke]. And that's how I was exiled from France by an angry mob of French nationalists.

As far as I can wrap my head around this i can only say two things... Dream wasn't in the wrong for joking around with his friend, but it was definitely stupid to do it on a public platform especially one as controversial and toxic as Twitter. The person who deactivated his account doesn't deserve any pity whatsoever because he deactivated his account to avoid hate, that's the smart move. Now if dream had kept quiet and ppl started creating a wave of hate through this same person's (referred above) tweet then he most probably would've jumped on the bandwagon to gas light and harass dream. So this person (referred above) isn't exactly innocent either.

Lol they want creators to address controversy without confronting the people who are attacking them just in case some random person doxxes them. Just because you are a "follower" of someone doesn't mean you represent that person or their community.

[@thebwahboi7616]

I understand that it was a joke, but I feel like it was one of those situations where it would have been entirely avoided easily. It’s fine in a private setting, for example if they met in person and were joking around, but on a public website like twitter where you know people will take it the wrong way, I think it’s unnecessary and very dumb if you’re trying to avoid controversy. I’m not accusing Dream of being a homophobe by any means but I’m just saying this whole situation could have been easily avoided.

[@luxuriouswatera9532]

I agree, he shouldn't make his reputation worse by doing this, or he could've just pay them money to make up for it

[@luxuriouswatera9532]

@Tiegan Cox yes money might've not solved everything but that's the only thing he can do to fix this at this point, not to everyone but to the person that got harrased because of his replies And yes his reputation is worse now, did you not see the #dreamout is trending on twitter?

[@thebwahboi7616]

@Tiegan Cox his reputation is most definitely worse. Famous users like Dream have to understand that a) there are people that dislike him and will use this as fuel for their grudge and b) that there are people that don't understand that they are joking. It's twitter. One of the biggest social media platforms. it is basically certain that someone will misunderstand your joke and be offended/upset by it. maybe the people criticizing him are immature kids, but Dream had to have realized that such people exist on twitter. Again, it was a situation that could have been avoided altogether or even if he had put a "/s" or something to make sure that the "smooth brained immature kids" would understand that he wasn't serious.

Friends are comfortable with each other with their sexuality, they're comfortable to joke around.

I don’t like that people need to be babied on the internet. If your going to send hate, expect backlash. I’m not condoning doxing, but people expect creators to watch their tongues and assume everything has a second/hidden meaning, but the viewers can act however they want. And people don’t realize we are just viewers, watching friends interact, we can’t get upset over how they act unless one of them came out and said they didn’t like their friends comments.

I know people will take it the wrong way, but they do not know what your relationships with people close to you are like, who cares about their opinions. the opinions that should matter are those close to you, I think that if your friends or circle had any issues with what you say or do they would either let you know by talking about it or just stop interacting with you.

[@BCRODCO]

The problem is people need to have a cause to be a worrior for. Context and sarcasm do not translate in a tweet. People want to become famous by becoming the face of a cause. Why is it acceptable and celebrated to be offended FOR someone else. I agree, if an incident occurred where malice and hate were meant to destroy someone's life that person needs to be called out, but being able to determine if a single statement is full of malice or sarcasm between close friends is almost impossable. If you don't have a friend you can make horrible but joking comments too in an exchange of friendly banter without feelings getting hurt you need to find that person in your life. Because they are a true life friend.

Strange how bantering between two friends results in everyone wanting to pitch in there two cents XD. Think as long as he knew it was a joke whats the problem? Lots of ppl are just looking for attention and want to drag anyone and everyone down with them cuz, it makes them feel better about ther sad pathetic lives XD.

[@rowanyoung6098]

Dam, didn’t even know that was taken bad. No matter what please don’t stop making content. Your streams and yt uploads really keep me going. Hope you don’t fall out of love with KZbin because of haters. For what it’s worth I think you’re a good guy and I don’t think that’s going to change. Lotta respect for Dream.

[@kaazi8415]

Need people to relearn about common sense.. they all act like a string variable in twitter's server offended them and are trying to oppress them😂... Just go to the next string .

[@TeasyLove]

it's an inspiring thought to have people regain their common sense after many years of living in a country or world of oppression without knowing it! :D

Twitter in a nutshell. I have no other words Im six months late And no one will read this But wtf ima say it anyway😂

[@jakeyshakey5475]

I’ve been there before. But, I think the reply crossed a line. It doesn’t sound very good on your part. Most people won’t get the joke in the moment and I think you should understand that.

[@BlurrEghost]

People are just too hypersensitive nowadays. You and many other people have to walk on eggshells with people, constantly. I used to have a dream to be a content creator. But I personally am worried about stuff like this happening to me as well. Bc people don’t know what a joke is. People say “that joke isn’t funny.” Nah, it’s funny, just they get offended like we insulted your entire family name… humanity’s feelings are in shambles.

[@damianheacock5516]

I dislike it when people just assume someone's public conversations 😮‍💨 when they were never in the conversation 😐😒. Just stay out fr

[@MiragePotato]

at this point people will just look for any excuse to attack Dream, no matter if he's doing something like a charity or if he's just joking with his friends

[@blankspace2891]

No

[@AnchisesGamer]

That joke has a buuuuunch of layers hahaha. It was funny, people don’t have any nuance and the online world people are playing the offended Olympics, seeing who can be the most offended

[@G0WLD]

So you dont waste your time, Here what happened: Snowflakes, with extra chromosomes, couldnt understand inside jokes that dream had made, they got mad at something dream made when he was 15

[@smolderiing7166]

That’s not even the main drama that’s the minority

[@jjbeets8129]

Need to chill, bro. Chromosome numbers have nothing to do with it. These are standard, run of the mill assholes we're dealing with.

[@TheFounderUtopia]

Once again, the story is "Twitter mob doesn't understand obvious sarcasm".

[@christianraymundodelacruz7484]

The joke is okay but the thing is... he had so much followers and twitter is a social media flatform that has a lot of views and opinions. as a public figure he should be more careful on what he's going to say specially online

[@MysticEagle4]

The fact ppl have to defend everything they post is dumb. People dont get that ppl have sense of humors. especially with your friends or family. You can say all kinds of things and not mean a thing by it. And people say dumb things when younger to and everyone thinks they should hold it against someone for their whole lives even tho that s not them anymore

[@Reddwarf10]

The fact you need to make a 50min video to explain maybe means your "jokes" are not easily interpreted?! Pull your head out, you're posting in a public forum not just to Ant or your friends. People will be effected. Just because my partner is of a certain ethnicity does that mean i can post wildly racist comments, and then when people are offended say "haha i was talking to a specific person even though i posted to everyone and gave no clarification as to my meaning or intentions and was wildly ambiguous"..!

[@blitzn00dle50]

you know what? yeah, my sister and I don't call each other retarded in public for this reason

[@SirScottalott3496]

I fully agree. I am married to a fantastic woman. I wouldn't say I'm gay or straight. I think sexuality is fluid and not fixed. there's lots of people who get incorrectly offended at things that could be offensive to others. I have friends who I joke about in similar fashion. I dish out short jokes to a 5ft tall friend. he dishes fat jokes to me all in good fun. best of luck dream and ant. (if you need a sixth player for man hunts.... how do I apply? would be good to have an Aussi accent on your streams 🤣)

bruh

[@awesomenoobman6587]

Mature? Dream is the most unmature person I have ever seen he takes no responsibility for his fan base, if a toxic fan ddos someone he denies that they are a fan. He always makes dumb jokes on twitter almost like he WANTS to be canceled.

Of course, on the Cheating front, you're never going to escape that stigma necessarily, the specter will be there if you ever do anything Speedrunning related. Because you did Cheat. And you reacted very poorly originally, causing all sorts of problems. But I'm sure eventually the stain will fade a bit, and any runs you do will be under more scrutiny than others, but I'm sure eventually you'll be able to get out of it's shadow. As for the Twitter events, like, honeslty, it wasn't all that bad. I could tell it was a joke, because I watch Manhunt and know Antfrost is a friend, so you are clearly joking. But, it is an example of the penalty of being a large creator. Your public statements, on Twitter and anywhere else, will be scrutinized and taken out of context, because you do have a larger following, which amplifies you on Twitter. It was an unwise thing to say, but clearly a joke. Ultimately, it's all just maturing and growing as a person.

[@ekkehardehrenstein180]

I find it curious, how people who profess themselves to be the anti hate police and start to attack people left and right and even try to ruin their reputation are never considered hateful. They are more or less carelessly take the chance of ruining another persons carrier and apparently don't even care enough who they target. It's almost like: You can't touch dirt, without getting dirty yourself. You can't fight hate (as your main agenda) without turning hateful. Oh I just remember this saying: If you stare too long into darkness, don't forget, darkness stares into you as well.

[@TheUltraProdigy]

3:55. With the second tweet, you messed up and had no sincerity or remorse (besides the negative social implications). Sharing certain rhetorics and jokes with close friends over social media doesn't excuse you from the controversy you receive. Someone ignorant of that relationship will see and identify it as true, as that's all the information you presented upon release. It's your responsibility as an influencer to know the perception anything you upload may have on your audience (which for someone of your caliper is the world). I just don't understand the point of mentioning the controversy without thought, amendment, and resolution. Might as well have skipped over it. I don't really watch or dislike you but I think it would be a good idea to hear this point; while it sucks people may not understand your intentions-- it is not their responsibility to-- someone with an influence is responsible for making their audience completely aware of all necessary information on the forefront (or even in a video like this but at least acknowledging your blunder). Anyway, I'm off, kinda lost interest after typing that lmao.

This is why i don't go near twitter lol. Full of over-sensitive crybabies.
