Alinity claims she was stalked following viral cat abuse debacle Alinity, Twitch \/ FreepikPopular Twitch streamer Alinity Divine stirred up controversy after throwing her pet cat over her head during a live broadcast, inciting outrage across the net over what many critics viewed as animal abuse \u2013 but the hate wasn\u2019t merely limited to the online world. While Alinity took an eight-day break from streaming following the scandal, she returned to the platform following investigation by the Saskatoon SPCA, who cleared her of all charges. Despite her seemingly triumphant return, she admitted that the scandal brought out a frightening side to her critics \u2013 and even claimed that she had been physically stalked due to the drama. Alinity opened up about the incident during her first stream since her cat-tossing clip went viral, explaining that she\u2019d been followed by people in her neighborhood who recognized her. \u201cPeople have been, umm, showing up to my house,\u201d she began. \u201c\u2026there were a few people in my neighborhood that I guess know who I am and have seen me walking my dog, and have followed me to my house.\u201d Unsurprisingly, the streamer was disturbed by this development, calling the stalking \u201cnot cool\u201d and claiming that she keeps a baseball bat under her bed in preparation for possible home invasions. This wouldn\u2019t be the first time Alinity has spoken out about being followed, either: the streamer Tweeted out a similar story on July 21, begging stalkers to respect her privacy in light of the drama. Please stop coming to my house and asking my neighbours where I am. Its actually really scary \u2014 Alinity (@AlinityTwitch) July 22, 2019 \u201cPlease stop coming to my house and asking my neighbours where I am,\u201d she wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s actually really scary.\u201d While the SPCA claimed that Alinity \u201cshowed remorse\u201d for tossing her cat and harbored \u201cno malicious intent\u201d toward the animal, critics continue to lash out across the net, as Twitch has yet to dole out a punishment following the scandal. 600Popular YouTuber Ethan Klein even claimed that Twitch gives \u201cspecial treatment\u201d to bigger streamers on the platform, alleging that his contact at the company told him so over a phone call during his time as a partnered streamer. [Timestamp: 53:57 for mobile viewers] Despite speculation, Alinity continues to stream on the site \u2013 although people clearly aren\u2019t happy about it, and are taking their frustration to the real world in a frightening display of aggression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
