For those who are looking to get caught up on the entire story behind Pokimane ’s ongoing struggle against online harassment and abuse, we put together a timeline summarizing the major events of the past few days. On January 12th, YouTube creator and recently made Twitch partner JiDion reacted to Pokimane playing VALORANT on stream. Pokimane revealed a brand dropped her immediately after she experienced a “controversy” in her career and warned other streamers against it. Whether it was haters spreading rumors that she was abusing drugs or an infamous clip of her saying the N-word, there were definitely at least five moments in her career that she likely wishes she. Here’s the tea on some of Pokimane ’ s most controversial streams. During a 2019 “League of Legends” stream, Pokimane came under fire when viewers thought they’d heard her use a racial slur, when in fact they had misheard her saying the name of the character “Anivia.”. Pokimane ’s accidental Steam ID reveal wasn’t the first time she let information slip on stream. In July 2021, while playing Rust with Jeremy “Disguised Toast,” she accidentally leaked details about a special OfflineTV video. However, the most potentially damning Pokimane controversy erupted just weeks ago, when a Twitch streamer named Jidion directed his viewers to flood her chat with sexist harassment for a “joke.” In response, Pokimane quickly contacted Twitch to demand blanket IP bans – not just for Jidion’s account, but his entire home Internet network. Pokimane revealed details about a 2023 incident involving a Twitch employee that faked a romantic relationship with her to “manipulate” girls. Popular streamer and content creator, Imane ‘ Pokimane ’ Anys has issued an apology for some of her actions in the past. The 24-year old released a video speaking about how she did not handle some situations correctly and giving context to other criticisms of her actions.
