Earlier this year, Jidion was permanently banned from Twitch following a hate raid on Pokimane\u2019s channel. Despite apologizing and making up her, the 21-year-old still remains banned. It doesn\u2019t look like he\u2019ll be back anytime soon either. Jidion has even claimed that the platform is \u201cracist\u201d after a streamer was unbanned in seven days after having sex on stream, while he still remains permanently banned for what he claims was \u201ca far lesser offense.\u201d Following on from being kicked out of TwitchCon EU in July for allegedly harassing TommyInnit\u2019s fans, an impersonator pretending to be the banned creator attended TwitchCon 2022 in San Diego \u2014 and they had just about everybody fooled Jidion impersonator appears in TwitchCon In a October 12 video, Twitch streamer Samham headed to TwitchCon looking just like the banned streamer, kitted with Jidion\u2019s classic \u2018professional rawdoggger\u2019 t-shirt while also wearing crocs and a black durag. Samham explained that the platform had done Jidion wrong, and being a Twitch partner himself, he had no issues getting into the event dressed up like him. After immediately entering the venue, Jidion fans began following and asking the impersonator for photos. Before long, security even began following him too, where they asked to see the other side of this badge to make sure it\u2019s \u201clegitimate.\u201d Initially refusing, he eventually showed the security, who took a picture of his badge before continuing on wondering around the venue. With security still trailing in the distance, he attracted more and more attention as word that Jidion was at the event circled. Samham even made a guest appearance on Nickeh30\u2019s panel, where he freaked out and fanboyed over the streamer while pretending to be Jidion \u2014 which was absolutely comical. Throughout the 17-minute long video, hundreds of fans were fully convinced that it was actually him. While a few suspected that it wasn\u2019t Jidion, even one of his friends and fellow streamer iziprime was fooled. At the end of the video, he event briefly got the chance to talk to Jidion after iziprime FaceTimed in disbelief.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jidion impersonator fools everyone after \u201csneaking\u201d into TwitchCon Twitch: SamhamTwitch streamer Samham has pranked the live streaming community by \u201csneaking\u201d into TwitchCon pretending to be controversial and banned creator Jidion.
