Dr Disrespect blasts influencers for making \u201cpathetic\u201d TikTok videos Twitch: Dr DisrespectDuring his February 13 broadcast, Twitch star Dr Disrespect hit out at influencers for jumping on the TikTok bandwagon. The streamer also shared his thoughts why so many personalities are flocking to the platform. Dr Disrespect is one of the top streamers on Twitch. He has a massive following that tunes in to his broadcasts to see his bombastic 80s persona, and eye-popping movie level quality production. However, the Two-Time Champion is not a big fan of the TikTok trend, calling it \u201cs**t\u201d content in an epic rant. He also shared his theory on why this is happening, and warns it might backfire on certain brands. Dr Disrespect hits out at TikTok content The streamer just started his broadcast when he took shots at TikTok, a short video hosting site. \u201cAlso get Tik-Tok the f**k off my Twitter feed!\u201d he exclaimed. He then launched into a rant about the trending platform. \u201cHoly s**t, I think TikTok is going to be the end of some brands, man, I\u2019m telling you right now. Actually, you know what? Please do more TikTok. Please do more. It\u2019s great to really show some of the creative talent that lives out there, man\u201d Doc said mockingly. This isn\u2019t the first time the Twitch star has called out the video platform. On February 12, he complained about seeing videos on his social media feeds. \u201cI have a simple request\u2026Get Tik Tok off my twitter feed,\u201d he tweeted. I have a simple request\u2026. Get Tik Tok off my twitter feed. \u2014 Dr Disrespect (@DrDisrespect) February 13, 2020 Later on in the stream, he circled back to the subject again and explained why so many influencers are making TikTok videos. \u201cIt\u2019s easy viewership. It has nothing to do with quality of content. F**k, it\u2019s terrible content, let\u2019s just be real. It\u2019s so, ugh, it makes me grind my teeth!\u201d Doc then elaborated and shared his theory on its popularity with his peers. \u201cIt brings in numbers, data that can be evaluated from companies that want to get involved in sponsorships. So now you are seeing this whole fake distribution of content because they are trying to hit certain numbers,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m not a supporter of putting out s**t content just because. There is agencies out there, that really encourage their influences to do these type of things. They don\u2019t recognize how some of these things can actually impact brands in a negative way,\u201d he finished. \u201cParticularly influencers and their brands. I feel like they pressure them just a little bit. And it\u2019s just f**king pathetic!\u201d (Timestamp 01:01 for mobile users.) There is no denying there has been a sudden influx of streamers and personalities making videos and sharing them with their fans. Jack \u2018CouRage\u2019 Dunlop and Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins, for example, have been experimenting with the format on social media. https:\/\/twitter.com\/CouRageJD\/status\/1225905653354397696 Tag the friend you would CRUSH in Fortnite \ud83e\udd29 pic.twitter.com\/YIDx2bQM0q \u2014 Ninja (@Ninja) February 8, 2020 Whether you agree with Doc or not, the man has navigated the business trends before and come out on top. In 2019, he announced that he signed a TV deal with The Walking Dead creators to make a show about his character.
