If you have not kept up with the recent happenings in the streaming world, JiDion was banned from Twitch for 14 days due to his hate raid on Pokimane’s latest live stream on January 12, 2022. The platform also held JiDion responsible for his own and his fans’ actions on Imane Anys’s stream.

I’m not like these other YouTubers imma defend myself when someone lies on me!!! My dislike for her has nothing to do with her gender but her as a person, don’t get the two confused!!!!

Interestingly, although he does not say what he did was right, he does say what he did “has nothing to do with her gender but her as a person.” He attempted to explain that his disliking of Pokimane is purely based on her as a person. But there’s no telling what the future holds for JiDion now.
