However, the star has denied the claims, saying they are \u201cvery clearly\u201d false. An old YouTube stream from \u2018untrusted\u2019, allegedly featuring Dream, dating back to 2017 resurfaced on March 25. In the video, which has since been set to private, they allegedly use a racial slur \u2014 \u201cpop pop n*****\u201d \u2014 while playing a Minecraft Counter-Strike mod. The other players in the call repeatedly make reference to a player named \u2018Dream\u2019 across the 31-minute stream. However, Dream, the now-hit YouTuber with nearly 20 million subscribers, has shut down the claims. The online star said the voice in the clip was \u201cvery clearly\u201d not his. \u201cJust so people are aware, people are sharing a video of some random guy saying the n-word and saying it\u2019s me, as well as a random account with a gross name history and saying it\u2019s mine,\u201d he said in a March 25 tweet. \u201cNeither are me very clearly. People are disgusting.\u201d Just so people are aware, people are sharing a video of some random guy saying the n word and saying it\u2019s me, as well as a random account with a gross name history and saying it\u2019s mine. Neither are me very clearly. People are disgusting. \u2014 dream (@dreamwastaken) March 25, 2021 Dream denies changing Minecraft name to offensive message The name change accusation comes from a now-viral tweet regarding a Minecraft account allegedly belonging to Dream. An indexed history of the account, which reveals previous names, shows it changing from \u201cJewzDid911\u201d, to \u201cNotDream\u201d, and later to \u201cLoliAbductor\u201d across a span from 2015 to 2017. \u201cIt\u2019s ridiculous. Showing random Minecraft accounts that have no connection to me and saying they\u2019re mine \u2014 literally a smear campaign,\u201d the YouTube star added. Yeah, it\u2019s ridiculous. Also showing random Minecraft accounts that have no connection to me and saying they\u2019re mine \ud83e\udd74 literally a smear campaign. thank you bad \u2764\ufe0f \u2014 dream (@dreamwastaken) March 25, 2021 Dexerto has been unable to verify whether this account actually belongs to Dream. The YouTuber added that he hasn\u2019t had any of the IDs associated with the account referenced above, although he said he didn\u2019t get the \u2018Dream\u2019 account until 2019. Just so it\u2019s here and not just on my private account; I didn\u2019t have the account name \u201cDeltaNinja\u201d ever (not me), I wasn\u2019t \u201cDream\u201d until 2019, and the people who originally spread this obviously know it\u2019s fake and are trolling (#dreamisoverparty) \u2014 dream (@dreamwastaken) March 26, 2021 Dream allegedly types racial slur on \u201cDreamOnPvP\u201d account Another set of screenshots of Dream allegedly using a racial slur, dating back to 2015, have also surfaced. The screenshots were sent by an anonymous user to \u2018Gamingguru456\u2019 on Twitter. They claim the screenshots are from Dream\u2019s old account, \u201cDreamOnPvP.\u201d The videos have since been deleted. The anonymous user also claims Dream ran a fake giveaway on his old channel. Take these with a grain of salt because of it being images and all, but some dude just sent me images of dream saying the hard r as well as his supposed old yt channel.
