Twitch streamer apologizes after heavy backlash over pushing dog into fridge GsxrclydeTwitch streamer GsxrClyde has apologized after receiving heavy backlash for pushing his dog into a mini-fridge in a viral clip that has been making the rounds on social media. On January 3, GsxrClyde, like a lot of other streamers for the new year, put out a \u201cbest of\u201d compilation on YouTube. After it came out though, Twitter user @WavelIY posted a clip from the video that shows Clyde pushing his dog Thor into a fridge. It wasn\u2019t long before the clip circulated on social media. Many people started going after the streamer, who defended himself onstream amidst the outrage. \u201cYou\u2019re pissing me off\u201d if you want the clip with sound \ud83d\udc4d pic.twitter.com\/22aip7wZLb \u2014 Boris The Bullet Dodger (@WavelIy) January 3, 2022 In the clip, Clyde is examining a camera harness for Thor, who\u2019s joining along and sniffing things out. Suddenly, the streamer looks down and uses his forearm to push the dog back, which sends him reeling into the mini-fridge behind him with enough force to knock items over on top. Twitter users quickly made comparisons to the infamous Alinity cat-throwing incident in quote tweets and replies to @WavelIY , and wondered why the streamer decided to include it in his \u201cbest of 2021\u201d video at all. GsxrClyde apologizes for \u201cunacceptable behavior\u201d Initially, Clyde claimed that no one cared when the incident happened earlier in the year. \u201cThat clip has been on Twitch [for a while],\u201d he said. \u201cWhen it happened, no one said a damn word.\u201d However, he has since apologized for his actions. \u201cYesterday, when the situation was brought to me and was posted on Twitter, I handled it unprofessionally and immaturely. I mean, let\u2019s just be honest here. It was uncalled for. It wasn\u2019t right. You shouldn\u2019t push your dog around.\u201d He also accepted full responsibility for his actions. \u201cYou can\u2019t make six years of good content and have one bad thing go unexcused, because it\u2019s not. That one bad thing could screw you over, and you should be one hundred percent accountable for it.\u201d This is my response to my unacceptable behavior regarding the clip with Thor, and my apology to anyone affected by the clip.https:\/\/t.co\/YnsG085eHE \u2014 GSXRCLYDE (@GSXRCLYDE) January 4, 2022 Clyde also revealed that he\u2019s received lots of hate and death threats from people over his actions. \u201cIt\u2019s been a tough night,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve been reading everything. It\u2019s not easy to read. But you live and you learn. I\u2019m human. I make mistakes.\u201d In the end, though, he went back to his main point and apologized to everyone for not only his actions but also his reaction afterward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
