While Twitch has long solidified itself at the top of the mountain, Kick has quickly become one of the Amazon-owned platform\u2019s biggest rivals over the last few months. Launched in early 2023, we\u2019ve seen top talent jump ship and head to the new platform. Among those include the likes of Adin Ross who signed the \u201cbiggest streaming deal ever\u201d to join the Kick after his permanent ban from Twitch. Since joining the platform, Adin has been at the forefront of numerous controversies \u2014 including asking fans to perform dangerous acts for money, as well as sharing sexually explicit content. Now, the Kick \u2018poster boy\u2019 has been forced to apologize after having a \u201ctransphobic rant.\u201d Trainwrecks demands apology from Adin Ross after \u201ctransphobic rant\u201d In a recent broadcast, Adin Ross went off on a tangent, hitting out at those choosing to go by different pronouns, before claiming his own pronouns are \u201ckill\/them.\u201d Adin\u2019s \u201ctransphobic rant\u201d sparked outrage from the community, with many criticizing the popular streamer \u2014 with one post even gaining the attention of Kick\u2019s Twitter account. Trainwrecks was furious by the comments made by Adin \u2014 who demanded he apologizes for his words before threatening to take action if he doesn\u2019t. \u201cIt\u2019s a stupid stupid thing he said, but I\u2019m going to give him a chance to go live today to apologize,\u201d Train said. \u201cIf it\u2019s anything short than that, then action will have to be taken,\u201d he added. \u201cYou can\u2019t say it was a joke, that\u2019s like the worst thing you could say that\u2019s joke. \u201cBut to say to kill\/them is not a joke, in no way shape or form can you cop out and say it\u2019s a joke.\u201d Adin Ross apologizes Going live on April 1, Adin addressed the situation. While everybody was expecting an apology, the Kick star \u201capologized for absolutely f**king nothing,\u201d in his own words. However, he quickly backtracked and gave a sincere apology, before explaining how he\u2019s going to be more cautious with his words in the future. \u201cReal sh*t though, you all know damn well that we live in a crazy f**king world in 2023,\u201d he said. When I tell someone to do something, such as kill or threat, I\u2019m going to slow the f**k down with that, because we do live in a crazy f**king world.\u201d He continued: \u201cI would never ever in any type of way want anyone to ever harm themselves or do something violent with something that I\u2019ve said. So, I\u2019m going to be cautious on that end.\u201d Nevertheless, Kick continues to thrive as a platform. With lucrative deals and a better revenue split, it\u2019s no wonder that more and more of Twitch\u2019s top streamers are making the switch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
