Over the past few months, streamer and YouTuber xQc ranted on his social media accounts about how toxic and fake everyone is. He expressed his frustrations last August and featured it on his channel. Even Alinity, a Columbian Twitch streamer known for playing a variety of games, is considering quitting streaming because of the stress and hate that she’s subjected to.
