In a recent bout of shocking tweets, prominent Twitch personality Adin Ross sparked controversy by encouraging fellow streamer Hasan to “kill himself”.
Known for his audacious commentary, Ross’s latest comments have resulted in severe backlash from fans and fellow Twitch streamers alike.
Ross, no stranger to controversy, has frequently drawn attention for his outspoken remarks. However, his tweets on June 7 seemed to cross a line.
After posting a series of aggressive and threatening tweets targeted at Hasan, Twitter swiftly removed Ross’s comments for violating community guidelines.
This inflammatory incident occurred merely a day after Ross generously distributed over $400,000 in cash and gifts to his friends and family.
His followers were shocked and disappointed to witness such a drastic contrast in his behavior.
Social Media Erupts In Response to Ross’s Tweets
As soon as Ross’s offensive tweets hit the web, social media platforms were set ablaze with reactions.
A barrage of responses from fans, critics, and fellow streamers flooded the internet, condemning Ross’s harmful rhetoric.
One prominent Twitch streamer, Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel, didn’t hold back in expressing his disdain for Ross’s incendiary comments.
During a recent live stream, xQc openly criticized Ross’s behavior, stating, “The tweet is f**king weird. Well, it’s not weird, it’s just not right. Straight up.”
xQc Expresses Disapproval of Ross’s Comments
xQc further elaborated on his views, categorizing Ross’s tweets as not just inappropriate but also as fundamentally wrong.
“Past events overall have made me realize that wishing permanent something on somebody, or asking them to do it, it’s not right. I don’t like it,” he stated.
Adding to his criticism, xQc argued that he could never envision himself uttering such words. Labeling Ross’s action as “lame as f**k,” xQc openly declared his disapproval of such remarks.
The Conflict Between Hasan and Adin
The conflict between Hasan and Adin has been well-documented, with their discordant relationship further amplified by Ross’s recent offensive remarks.
Despite the public condemnation, the Kick star hasn’t expressed any remorse for his comments.
This recent controversy unfolded shortly after Ross banned both Hasan and fellow streamer Mizkif from Kick. In response, Hasan rebuked Ross, labelling him a “gremlin.”
As the gaming community continues to grapple with the impact of Ross’s controversial comments, it underscores the need for responsibility and sensitivity in the highly public and influential sphere of streaming platforms.
