Trainwrecks’ Apology

Trainwrecks is a streamer who was recently involved in a humiliating incident. He was suspended from the streaming platform for 5 days after making a speech that insulted women.

“I was targeting the.1% who are sexually exploited to get visits and money,” he said after the suspension ended. Although it was satire, I believe the tone and words I used were too offensive. I’ll try to avoid using that word and instead discuss contentious issues.

The lamentable speech went like this:

This used to be a community of gamers, geeks, bullied kids, and kids who turned to video games to escape the harsh realities of life.

The same w****s who turned us down, the same w****s who chose the coolest kids over us are now infiltrating our community, taking our money, and stealing our subscribers, just like they did in his day.
