Disguised Toast hits back at people trying to cancel him over \u201cproblematic\u201d comments Twitch: Disguised ToastJeremy \u2018Disguised Toast\u2019 Wang has issued a long and detailed response after people condemned him for supposedly \u201cproblematic\u201d comments he made in the past. It\u2019s been a turbulent few days for Toast. After announcing he is quitting Among Us \u2013 his main game for the past year \u2013 Toast has been convinced to release an impassioned response to accusations of problematic behavior. The OfflineTV member was criticized by some on social media for allegedly making racist and sexist jokes in the past, and calling for others to call him out as well. And after a \u201cthoughtful and well-written message\u201d from a fan, Toast saw fit to respond to these allegations and address people\u2019s concerns head-on. Toast responds to accusations of problematic comments On May 2, Toast posted a detailed Twitlonger which sought to respond to five key allegations made against him. Toast explained the importance of \u201ctransparency\u201d to him, and urged people not to attack his friends from OfflineTV and Amigops. \u201cI have always toed the line of \u201cedgy\u201d humor when it comes to my online presence,\u201d he said. \u201cOver the last 5 years, I\u2019ve developed a more sarcastic, blunt, and satirical personality. There\u2019s nothing about what I\u2019ve done publicly that I have tried to hide, or delete, or claim ignorance to.\u201d Toast refuted accusations of racism, which related to a joke he made over two years ago, which he claims was regurgitated from a website. \u201cTrying to educate me that it\u2019s offensive has no weight because we all knew it was offensive, that\u2019s why it was censored,\u201d he explained. https:\/\/twitter.com\/disguisedtoast\/status\/1388836361445298176?s=21 Toast reminded critics of his own previous experiences with racism, which involve being \u201cspat on\u201d and \u201cbeing called Jackie Chan\u201d. \u201cThis obviously doesn\u2019t make me immune to being racist,\u201d he explained. \u201cBut reading an offensive joke doesn\u2019t make me one either. He also responded to criticism over a joke during a game of pictionary where he drew a girl to represent the word \u201cillegal\u201d. \u201cI don\u2019t support pedophilia (I can\u2019t believe I have to even say that) and it honestly surprises me that some stans are trying to cancel me for this one,\u201d he added. \u201cI\u2019m pretty sure it\u2019s clear that even with the worst opinion of me, people can recognize that I\u2019m saying pedo = bad. Toast further rebuked claims he advocated for rape and use of the \u201cR slur\u201d. In both cases, he described the claims as unsubstantiated, with no clips or VODs to back the accusations up. Toast concluded by explaining his intention to \u2018tone down\u2019 his jokes in the future. \u201cMoving forward, I will try to be a lil bit less edgy,\u201d he said. \u201cBut that type of humor is something I grew up with and do personally find humorous. \u201cIf you take it at face value, without context, without knowing me \u2013 I can understand why I might come off as a bigot. But even if you don\u2019t respect me, at least respect the opinion of the people around me.\u201d Read More: Toast caught playing GTA RP off stream – Toast isn\u2019t the only high-profile content creator to be criticized for past actions this month, with MrBeast crewmember Karl Jacobs coming out to apologize for his previous association with controversial streamer Ice Poseidon.
