Prominent Twitch streamer Félix "xQc" has slammed creators online for not speaking out on the accusations that have recently been levied against Ava Kris Tyson. As per the allegations, Tyson had previously engaged in inappropriate behavior with a 13-year-old individual and had also purchased artwork made by contentious cartoonist Shadman.
To those unaware, artwork produced by Shadman is alleged to often involve pornographic content related to minors (CP), and Tyson's affiliation with him has led to allegations of her being a "lolicon". Further, stills have emerged from a past video by Tyson, which showcases an artwork by Shadman hung up on a wall in his room.
In his post, xQc stated that he followed personalities on X that are considered "influential" within content creation circles. Yet, he observed most to keep mum about the controversy encapsulating Kris Tyson. Further, he said that he was anticipating "cope justifications" on why the situation is not being addressed by said creators. He wrote:
"I follow mostly only influential creators here, yet most have been silent about the @kristyson_ situation. Pretty deviant behavior across the board. Weirdo. Can’t wait to read some of the cope justifications on why it wasn’t addressed."
Prominent personalities like SomeOrdinaryGamers, Ryan Garcia, Keemstar, and Sneako have also addressed the allegations against Ava Kris Tyson
With the allegations against Ava Kris Tyson spreading like wildfire on the internet, content creators, athletes, and other notable online figures have also initiated discussions regarding the same. One of the most damning additions to the allegations was the corroboration provided by Drama Alert host Daniel "Keemstar".
Keemstar stated that he had personally communicated with Ava Kris Tyson regarding the latter's alleged support of Shadman, which Keem claimed to be a "fact". He stated that he had engaged in conversation with Tyson regarding the subject as he was still "upset" about the cartoonist previously producing "art" showcasing his 8-year-old daughter inappropriately.
Similar to xQc, Nicolas "Sneako" also called out influential Twitch star Imane "Pokimane" for remaining silent regarding the entire drama. Talking about the situation during a Rumble live stream on July 23, 2024, he also made a comparison between the "immediate" response given by Pokimane for the controversy involving DrDisrespect and her current want to not "disavow the woke community".
Ryan Garcia also pitched in through a now-deleted post on X, in which he dropped the homophobic "F-Slur" while referring to Ava Kris Tyson. He also claimed that she was suffering from "mental health issues" and called her a "maggot".
Calling these allegations and Kris' behavior "concerning", popular commentary YouTuber Mutahar "SomeOrdinaryGamers" made a post on X stating that the accusations needed to be addressed.
FaZe Clan co-founder Nickmercs, who has previously remarked on Kris Tyson's gender identity in the past, also opined on the matter and implied that he was not surprised regarding the pedophilia allegations that have emerged. Although the allegations of grooming have since been refuted by the minor in question, speculations, and discussions continue on whether Kris' behavior as a whole with the minor could be considered appropriate.
