Pokimane cries after receiving online hate during emotional Twitch stream Pokimane, YouTubeAlthough popular Twitch streamer Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is one of the platform\u2019s most popular female content creators, internet fame isn\u2019t all sunshine and roses, as evidenced by her reaction to online hate during an emotional stream on July 6. Esports outlet Thescore Esports uploaded a documentary about Pokimane on the same day, which detailed Anys\u2019s journey to internet stardom \u2013 but not everyone was pleased with the video. As of writing, the video has 5,000 dislikes to 3,000 likes: a ratio that Pokimane admitted \u201churt her feelings\u201d in comparison to the channel\u2019s videos on other Twitch personalities. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oBih8DbAYgQ\u201cIt does hurt my feelings, kind of, that they\u2019ve done this on so many different streamers, and then like, as soon as it\u2019s me, it\u2019s like, so many dislikes,\u201d she said of the video. \u201cI don\u2019t really know why.\u201d Pokimane closed out her stream shortly thereafter, claiming that she didn\u2019t want to cry on camera and instead wanted to let out her emotions at the gym, holding back tears as she did so. Pokimane\u2019s emotional broadcast follows a story told by fellow streamer Macaiyla, who claimed that she\u2019d possibly hurt Ays\u2019s feelings after saying that another streamer was prettier than her. \u201cShe probably doesn\u2019t like me now because I\u2026 there was a livestream fails clip that someone clipped of me for drama, and I said \u2013 I was talking to Mizkif and I said, I thought that Maya was prettier than her,\u201d Macaiyla explained, going on to note that she\u2019d made the comment to help the two get together. Anys later posted a sad gif shortly after ending her July 6 stream, picturing \u201cMy Neighbor Totoro\u2019s\u201d Mei falling face first into the mud: a post that caught the attention of popular streamer Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel. 600https:\/\/imgur.com\/o5S2akv xQc challenged his viewers to upend the like to dislike ratio on the offending video in response to Pokimane\u2019s emotional reaction to the hate, asking them to \u201cmake a positive impact on the world\u201d with their likes. While Pokimane\u2019s gif has since been deleted, the streamer has fans across the globe rooting for her success in spite of the vitriol she receives online \u2013 although Thescore Esports\u2019 video on the topic continues to suffer from a major misuse of the dislike button.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
