During a July stream, one of Ninja’s viewers said, “First Sketch, next it will be Ninja,” implying that Blevins may be the next creator to get “canceled” on social media.
“Dear God bro, leave me alone,” he shot back. “I will say though, the internet lately… it seems like people are looking to cancel anyone and everyone at all times. It’s every day. Every day it’s something new. It’s something, someone… someone’s getting canceled or [they’re] trying to.
“Social media and Twitch right now, and streaming, it is so stupid. Someone does something suspicious, something sus… a million people post it on the internet and everyone’s giving their opinions that nobody asked for.”
