Following the harassment of Thailand-based streamer, JustKeth, live on her stream, Twitter burst out bashing the steamer without knowing the full context. One of the top female streamers on Twitch, Sweet Anita, came forward to raise her voice for the victim and criticize the haters on Twitter.
The Overwatch streamer posted supportive comments and urged the internet to help the victim and make an example so no other female streamer has to fear for their careers if something like this happens to them live on the stream. “If you have a moment please put a supportive comment there so that the women of twitch don’t fear for their careers in the event that this happens to them live.” Said Anita.

The Thailand-based streamer, JustKeth, had started streaming back in 2018. She has around 61K followers on Twitch and 21K subs on YouTube. Keth is known for her cosplay, gaming, and occasional IRL streams. She got featured in the headlines after a recent live harassment in one of her IRL streams.
In a recent pool stream, JustKeth, was harassed by an older man who threatened her and then chased her. Allegedly, this man had made some derogative approaches towards the streamer and invited her to sit with him beside her in the pool. But when she rejected his approach, the man was enraged and tried to harass her.
According to the reports, the man was arrested and sentenced to jail with a 300 Euro fine. JustKeth took to Twitter to describe the situation in detail. With a series of tweets, Keth gave her side of the story and tried to clear up the misconceptions regarding the whole situation.
1# I was streaming at the hotel's pool where only me and the guy were present. He been sitting in the pool and drinking beer. After he asked me to sit next to him and made a sexual gesture (looked at his crotch and nodded) while I was at the opposite side of the pool.

But the internet wasn’t as understanding as she had hoped for. Many offending comments were made against her. Even when the situation was reported by Dexerto on Twitter, people flooded the replies with negative comments.
I don’t know what happened there, but YOU – streaming people are so annoying! Never ask people around if they are ok with listening to your “infinite oral flow”. I think that kinda bloggers, vloggers, etc should ask people around if they are ok to get registered! Otherwise – JAIL

Without context I could see this as a French guy being upset he’s being filmed at a pool not wanting to be on a livestream
— Nate (@NateThaGre8) January 2, 2023
He says "So annoying, im trying to relax, so shut up"
Where's the rejected sitting part? He seems angry and annoyed at the streaming stuff and possibly being on camera. Nothing about sitting together at the pool.

Looking at all this hate and negetivity towards the streamer, Sweet Anita came forward to support her fellow streamer in her time of need. Retweeting the report, Anita wrote “Damn I used to think reddit was the most toxic place for women, but the twitter comunity has overtaken them. The comments in this tweet blaming her are INSANE! The reddit thread about this was mainly supportive. My heart goes out to her, no one should have to deal with this.”
Even in the replies she urged, “Crazy that she’s being doubted, blamed and insulted for having the AUDACITY to be sexually harassed. If you have a moment please put a supportive comment there so that the women of twitch don’t fear for their careers in the event that this happens to them live.”
How the fans reacted to this Twitch drama
In Anita’s tweet, the fans came forward with a positive attitude and expressed their support for the poor harassment victim.
this is all kinds of fucked up and why didnt any staff try to help her i assume they were fairly close to the pool

Disgusting behavior by the guy, and sadly i did see comments not being supportive. Fck those guys. But a lot of comments want to understand the backstory, not wanting to jump to conclusions. nd that seems fair to me. Framing is everything nd a lot of ppl take advantage of clips

As you see in the clip the pool is empty that is where the dickles pansy got his courage from i just hope that dickhole didn’t ruin her day mutch love to her ♥️♥️

To anyone trying to justify this in any way; there is no kind of "being annoying, streaming next to a pool" that would justify this. If this is your stance, you're evil.
I'm so fvcking done with people supporting horrific behavior. If you do this, you are an evil piece of sh!t.— =Greg= (@AirLegaCy22) January 2, 2023
Problem with short edited videos is you dont have the whole picture. Him saying he's annoyed at her talking I could imagine being a real situation for a steamer.

@Justketh1 has got my support in this. Hope she feels alright after that.

Many of the comments there are disheartening to read; she was sexually harassed and she explained what happened in real-time leading up to the incident: https://t.co/vwRyqQ4WEh. The event itself is horrible to see, but some people's reactions to it are almost just as worrying.
