"What can I say, I'm a f**k up" - xQc reveals Pokimane has unfollowed him on social media following recent controversy

During a Kick livestream on November 5, 2023, Felix "xQc" revealed that Imane "Pokimane" had unfollowed him on social media following a recent controversy. For those unaware, on November 2, 2023, xQc went viral on X (formerly Twitter) after netizens discovered that he had been uploading react content related to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

X user @NoodleVEVO slammed the content creator's antics, labeling him a "parasite." They wrote:

"When I think about what scumf**k degenerate content parasites look like, I don't think I could possibly create parody more on the nose than this."

xQc responded to the criticisms by flaunting his wealth. In one of his replies, the French-Canadian personality included an image of himself holding stacks of cash. In another, he displayed his diamond-encrusted Audemars Piguet watch with the caption, "Your bank account relates."

While playing Cities: Skylines 2 earlier today, Felix revealed that Pokimane had unfollowed him on Instagram. Claiming that he did not uphold the "social standing," the 27-year-old remarked:

"I know Poki unfollowed me on Instagram. Why the f**k do I care? I understand that there is a social standing I need to uphold in order to maintain my friendship and I didn't do that recently. So, I'm not in the follow-list. What can I say, man, I'm a f**k up."

According to YouTube user @TurtleMonkeyGG, the OfflineTV co-founder "works smarter," whereas xQc "works harder." They added:

"Poki works smarter, X works harder. She chose the family-friendly route, and X chose the brand-risk route. So, OFC (of course), she would get bank at a fraction of his effort, but X had to make something out of nothing."
