Twitch streamer attacked by drunk stepdad while live goes viral Silky White\/TwitchA clip of a Twitch streamer being attacked by his apparently intoxicated stepfather and fighting back has gone viral. When Twitch streamer Silky White went live on the site back in July 2020, he wasn\u2019t expecting to have a clip of him fighting his stepdad caught on stream. It was deleted from Twitch to avoid breaking the platform\u2019s Terms of Service. But the altercation was recorded by the internet, and has since resurfaced and gone viral on Reddit and other social media. After being accused of not having a job, Silky White insisted streaming was his job, which his stepdad called \u201cmasturbating in front of a green screen.\u201d \u201cHell yeah I am, do whatever I want in front of this green screen, yeah that\u2019s how that goes,\u201d Silky replied, not taking any smack. \u201cWe pay you money, that\u2019s how that goes, you\u2019re drunk as s***t, shut up.\u201d After telling his stepfather to go upstairs multiple times, the family member chose to charge at the streamer as he was sitting down in his gaming chair. Instead of getting the drop on him, the chair acted similar to a catapult, or ropes around a wrestling ring, rebounding Silky to be right back in his face for a punishing counter-attack. \u201cJust to clarify, the stepson did rock his stepdads s**t and the stepfather was arrested,\u201d a viewer in the comments chimed in. However, the streamer understandably says he doesn\u2019t want to be defined by this one incident. I\u2019m okay!!!\u2026 pride in my family is lost though. I\u2019m sorry for everyone who found me this way! I just wanna stream and have fun with you guys but sometimes it\u2019s hard\u2026 thank you all! \u2014 Silky White (@SilkySoWhite) July 15, 2020 \u201cI just wanna stream and fun with you guys but sometimes it\u2019s hard,\u201d Silky said after the fight and before getting suspended for two weeks for breaking Twitch\u2019s Terms of Service. He is back to streaming now though, usually featuring Call of Duty and Splitgate on his Twitch channel, with no on-stream fights since.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
