I don't really like saying stuff like this because it can be kind of like misinterpreted or weird but whenever I ended my stream I saw a message and it was like one minute ago and It was Emi saying this had happened And I immediately called her after I had finished my stream. I had to even make sure that like it was off

0:22

and uh She she didn't like this was before it had even gone public at all And I you know she she didn't really know what was gonna do or anything like that And so then this this video came out and and thank God it came out now We can see what happened here. It is Let's watch it

0:43

So you can see and and what had happened is this person came up to her and they were in another meet-and-greet line that's my understanding and they skipped over the line the security let them go through this person then tries to go and grab her right he tries to grab her so there you go and security basically let this happen and you can see you know like this is the security I where is where was the security he was

1:19

like I didn't even see the guy he was like waiting back from there that was it and so the guy totally did this wasn't from there. That was it. And so the guy totally did this wasn't allowed to have our own security. I don't even really want to show the clip that much because it's just disgusting. But that's basically it. And so they banned or private security unacceptable. Well, they did they banned so they also will I'll go back and I'll look at this one here. So Emaru talks about her favorite security guard. So Emaru did have a security guard.

1:47

This was from about a week ago, but TwitchCon had banned that security guard from going to the event.

1:54

Maybe I should talk about this, whoever cares. I had a security guard two years ago where there was a guy following me around TwitchCon and he like asked him to stop a couple times. My guard asked him and the guy wouldn't stop so he grabbed the guy but he didn't like hurt him he was just holding the guy until like the con security game or came and then for some reason they're like yeah because your security guard touched him he's like perma banned from

2:18

the venue forever but he didn't even he didn't even hit him or anything he just like held him while they waited for like the police to come.

2:25

What the fuck?

2:26

And it was like my favorite security guard. I can't have him at TwitchCon anymore. I was just like, okay, like it was so sad because he like, he didn't look every day.

2:35

So TwitchCon banned the guy for doing a citizen's arrest in a way? like I wouldn't I don't know exactly but we'll look at the next clip here too. So yeah, she had a security guard for doing this stuff and then your security guard did his job so he's banned. Is she okay? I mean, I think okay as a relative term. I mean, she's not hurt, you know, at least physically. So I mean, I think that's really up to her why she's streaming on Twitch. I mean, because where else you're gonna go, right? I mean, I think that's really up to her. Why she's still streaming on Twitch. I mean, because where else are you going to go?

3:06

Right.

3:06

I mean, that's it. I mean, the guy that shoved the assault was actually Yemeni's own security. Well, it was a, it's more complicated, right? I mean like, well, well, anyway, I'll go back and we'll look at this here. So we've got another one. right here. Twitch security lets streamers bypass multiple checkpoints, no questions asked. Here we go.

3:25

Yeah, yeah, just we'll just scan in and then we're meeting him up front. Thank you.

3:33

Okay.

3:34

See, Danny's really good at just being ultra confident about everything and uh...

3:47

We just walk past.

3:49

Yeah.

3:50

Which one's which?

3:52

Um... You want your one?

3:55

So...

3:56

Yeah, yeah, thank you. Have I sent a message to her to see if she's alright? Yeah, yeah, sure. I mean, this is a very, this is a huge invasion of her privacy. This event happening, her having to be in the room with her girlfriend, her having to be in the room with her boyfriend. I mean, it's, it's this is a huge invasion of her privacy. This event happening, her having even talked about it, Twitch lying about it.

4:34

They lied in their statement about it.

4:37

Thank you. Oh, there he is. Where is he? Oh, I see him. He's over there. CCO meeting greets. Hey, S-Fan. We're with S-Fan's team, so we're just going to go through.

4:48

Thank you.

4:49

Thank you.

4:50

Yeah.

4:51

S-Fan.

4:52

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

4:53

Ma'am, is this a Wendy's? Yeah. That's the... Wait, I'm gonna explain. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

5:06

Ma'am, is this a Wendy's?

5:08

Ma'am, this is a McDonald's.

5:11

So how do you think it happened? I think I've got an idea. I think I've got a good, you know, maybe... Ooh, there might be a reason why this could be happening. And, uh, looks very secure yeah very very secure guys just like they do with their TOS say what you want but at least

5:30

they're consistent with their incompetence twitch security be like yeah there it is the folks in a security seems to be some people wearing lime green shirts hoping that the color is so obnoxious that it would scare off the attackers it doesn't seem to be working and so you've got another one and this is a twitch contract required emmer so emaru was required i i hope that i'm not over speaking here uh emaru was required to do a meet and greet because of the stuff, but in order to it's I can't

6:12

cancel my meet and greet and not cancel her show because of the fact that the reason I can't do my meet and greet is I don't want to be in the same place for two hours. I wonder why people being weird. Okay. And then I'm under contract with them so I can't cancel one and not cancel the other. Interesting. Oh. I'm sorry. I mean,

6:34

because I wanted to keep my show. I'm sorry. I mean, I'm sure everyone will be nice. Yep.

6:41

Oh god. Oh man. Yeah and uh check Senna's tweet this. Yeah, but it's it's it's not really about like Senna's situation is different Like I'm talking really about in a situation. There was no obligation. I'm not talking about Senna's situation There was no obligation to the meet-and-greet, but I don't know if that applied to Amaru it did as well. It didn't It didn't it It didn't. It was a different situation. I know a lot about this. Like, I know what happened here. Like, I don't know everything, but I

7:22

know a lot. And so that's why I'm, uh, so Emma, Emma was forced to be a petting zoo by Twitch. Basically.

7:30

Yes.

7:31

Uh, that's right. And they, they held her show hostage by that. Uh, she, she was, you know, I think she was kind of reluctant to do it, but she did it anyway. And that's basically it. I mean, it's just disgusting. It absolutely is disgusting. This is after they banned her security guard.

7:47

And this is again, TwitchConNathKendi allegedly snuck into Emaru's applicant-only meet and greet line. So here we go. This is the Twitter stream. So let's see the quality on this.

7:57

Now that I'm done with the meet and greet, I might as well tell you guys... Now that I'm done with the meet and greet, I might as well tell you guys now that I'm done with the with the meeting greet I might as well tell you guys whoa look at this BMW I Might as well tell you guys what the I'm sorry I might as well tell you guys what the fuck I actually did to get into into the line Hey, I snuck in I don't know what else to say I Was in line waiting for the meeting greet and I figured well I got some

8:28

intel that the that you had a that you had to make a reservation for the meet and greet in the beginning of October I never did that I never did that I just knew where I had to be and I executed

8:52

And that's how you got to be I didn't prepare for this but I was ready for it

8:57

And he didn't do the thing is like yeah, he did something wrong He shouldn't have done that but imagine if that person was malicious. Is this a two-per? Nah, he's just a clown. But like, what really matters is why are people self-snitching? Uh, I have no idea why they're self-snitching. I really have no idea, but I think that he's really just going to show that they just didn't give a fuck. I think that's really what he's doing. He's saying basically, damn bro, like they didn't really give a fuck about this at all. Huh? Like wow, damn Why damn they dumb as fuck right twitch won't ban him I don't even know if he's on twitch or not

9:31

But anyway So the point that I'm making is that clip from a Twitter stream is streamer recounts their experience allegedly sneaking into the line Where you're supposed to wait if you applied in October and then the man emmer I don't know if he said Emeru in this or not, but Dan said twitchcon is basically Fort Knox Yeah, and I guess all the gold's gone and so top-notch security One notch security. Holy fuck security was horrid. That would imply that it existed. I hope she sues We'll see what happens absolute joke of a security team. I mean, are they even trying? No, they're not. If I were any popular

10:05

streamer at the event, I would leave staying there only promotes their behavior like this to continue. And so there it is. And so what a joke, poor organization, poor nonprofessional security. There you go to and team Fort Knox. Yeah, I guess so. And so should she sue? I think that is not something that I would want to discuss publicly right now. I understand you guys want me to give, you know, juicy details and all that stuff. But, you know, I am I try to be as professional as I can be.

10:39

And I try to respect people's privacy to the greatest extent that I can, especially in regards to people that I am friends with. And I try to absolutely act in their best interest at all times, even whenever it's not good for content. So I apologize, I'm not going to be making any more comments on that. So this is a very, this is a legitimately serious issue. And so, there it is. We want blood. I...

11:09

Don't worry. Okay?

11:11

Don't worry.

11:12

That's all I'll say. There will be accountability. There will be. But how will that manifest? It is uncertain. And just before I get in trouble,

11:34

metaphorical blood, nobody's gonna get fucking hurt. And if they do, it's gonna be Twitch's fault, because they let it happen at their own fucking event. Before people take that out of context again.

11:45

Where they try to ban me for saying this. It just yeah in Minecraft no it's metaphorical not Minecraft it doesn't help. And so let's see here if I can find it and let's see here live stream the lawsuit yeah sure right and anyway let me go back over here and I'll look at the rest of the Jockeyfish here, new Twitch tweet.

12:10

Twitch tweeted out about this again. Let me see what Twitch said. And let's see if there is a response. Compete in exclusive State Farm Gamerhood Challenge. Okay, that's really about it. And let's see, did they say anything else?

12:24

No, they didn't they didn't this is just another Advertisement and that that's nothing else, right? I mean, it's just their social media manager There it is. And so this is really twitch responds. Let's let's get to that. I'm gonna get to that The man that attacked em, eru may have had a knife. So This is a frame by frame. He moves his hand up. Obviously, I've seen all these things. Now, I don't

12:56

like I mean to say the guy had a knife, it was a pen, it probably was a pen. But I mean, I've seen I mean, john wick, I've seen that the dark knight. I don't think that really makes a was a pen but I mean I've seen I mean John Wick I've seen the Dark Knight I don't think that really makes a difference does it I mean you can do some damage with a pen too so really the fun like real what is the real problem here the real problem here is that a person with malicious intent was allowed

13:23

to approach a creator with no vetting and no security. Whether or not this person had a knife is beside the point. If they had a brass knuckles, if they had a rock, if they had a key, if they had a shank, if they had a knife, a pen, anything, they could have hurt somebody, right? It's the intent that matters, right? And the intent, like a man of that size compared to a woman of that size It could be almost anything and you could like I mean if you had something like this you could fucking Irreversibly change somebody's life if there's that big of a power difference and a size difference between you and that person, right? I mean, let's be honest,

14:07

that's just the first thing that's on my fucking desk. And so, instantly over, exactly. So really, it's about the intent. And so, anyway, Emaru has warned TwitchCon vibes were off. Oh, here we go. I haven't seen, I've not seen this one. I haven't really felt this way.

14:25

And then also, I haven't really felt this way, but I've heard so many streamers basically be like, the vibes are off this year. I don't want to go this year. I don't want to stream there this year. So I'm like, oh, well, I guess if everyone else feels that way, this may be a good bandwagon to hop on perhaps

14:49

so let's go back over and this is her statement on it and uh i had a gut feeling i mean it wasn't a gut feeling plenty of people told her this right i mean they said this to her in general right i mean let's be honest and so so instinct tried. It wasn't instinct. It was people. People told her this. And other people did this. And again, like, you know, Emi is a, you know, she is a put your best foot forward, try to be nice, try to be cooperative. She is a people pleaser. She will try to placate people. and she does so to, I think, her own detriment

15:25

in a lot of regards. And it's one of the reasons why I've defended her in a lot of these situations is because I feel like it's just... it's wrong. It's wrong to take advantage of a person like that. It is. And I mean, somebody needs to say something. Somebody needs to do something.

15:53

I mean, what the fuck else? What else is there to say? That's the reason. So anyway, let me go back and I'm going to show, I'm going to read her statement last, okay? Just so I can do everything in chronological order, because Twitch actually did make a statement about this themselves, okay? So Twitch made a statement about what happened etc and I thought this statement was it was cute. It's a cute statement

16:28

you know written by the legal and You know really really very Really showed that they cared very cute. And so this is what they said The safety and security of all those attending TwitchCon is our highest priority. I guess not. The behavior displayed by the individual involved in the incident yesterday involving a high-profile streamer

16:56

was completely unacceptable and deeply unsettling. In line with existing TwitchCon security protocols, law enforcement and event security were on site and responded to the incident. I'm going to just read what she said so I don't accidentally speak out of information. In Twitch's statement, they said the guy was immediately caught and detained.

17:26

I'm sorry, but that is a blatant lie. He was allowed to walk away from my meet and greet, and I didn't hear that he was caught until hours after he attacked me. And it felt like this only happened because my manager was pressing for it, not because TwitchCon staff thought it was a big deal. I want to repeat myself it's even worse than this.

18:00

So

18:03

Jesus Christ yes it is. It's sickening. And unfortunately, I'm not the kind of person to tell us more. Unfortunately, the worst stuff is going to be, it was communicated verbally. The first thing when I heard about this Is I was looking for for messages and and text for it, right? Uh, but unfortunately it was communicated verbally. I will let Emi if she chooses to explain the details

18:41

So that that's that's her decision But anyway, the Twitch set her up. I mean, indirectly, yes. And so, that's it. And anyway, let's go back over here if I look at this. We immediately blocked this individual from returning to the TwitchCon premises.

18:59

A lie. And now they are banned indefinitely from Twitch both online and in-person events The most important word here Never mind. I actually just added that word in myself. Now they are banned. Now they are banned.

19:29

Which is good. That's good. It's good that they banned them. Now they are banned. And so, we are coordinating with the Impacted Creators team, and as per our standard protocols continue to cooperate with any law enforcement investigations. We have increased security at the meet and

19:50

greet attendee check-in point and will have additional security personnel surrounding participating streamers. If you've RSVP'd for a meet and greet please note that we are unable to accommodate plus ones for the remainder of the event. Twitch has a zero tolerance policy for harassment. In fact, that's not true. That's a lie.

20:11

You don't have a zero harassment policy, zero tolerance. You have some tolerance. And acts that inhibit the safety and security of our community. So they're lying. Almost everything about this is a lie. Or it is a misrepresentation. And I want to go ahead and look at so so that and obviously, whenever this

20:37

happened, a lot of people went back and they were talking about the fact that I had gone out and I had said, what do you call it? Let's see here. So Twitch, they're all incompetent. They obviously were. Security prior to messaging me wouldn't, that they would show up with a gun and shoot me. I don't remember it being talked about super seriously. Yeah, this has happened. By the way, for any girl, there have been so many instances.

21:00

News footage, surface of the man who assaultedmeru freely walking outside of twitchcon. I Don't know if this is the person it looks like the person that's this person right here It sure looks like the person so whenever twitch said that they immediately took action, they lied. And they lied to everybody. They lied to you. And the reason why they lied to you is because they think you're a fucking retard. They think their streamers are fucking retards, and the people that are running the event

21:36

are also fucking retards. That's it. That's the reason why. They disrespect your intelligence. They lie to your face. In an event with cameras everywhere.

21:51

Thinking that somehow they're going to have the upper hand. That's not the same person. I don't know about that. Sure looks like the same person.

22:10

Sure looks like him. Also, I can just say they did not, they did not try to stop the guy. He could have walked out. He could have walked out. And, uh, I know that for a fact.

22:28

And so anyway, uh, I did make a response to this as well and This is some other but why I made two responses number one I said this I think this will be this will be and I said parentheses should be the last year of twitchcon Obviously, this is what's going to happen. I mean, it kind of goes without saying, but uh, yeah, I mean, I don't see anybody ever going to TwitchCon ever again. Like I, it's over. It's done.

22:58

This is the last, like, I mean, how do you, how do you come back from this? Do you think this would have happened if it was six to eight years ago yeah it did it did every year stuff like this happens at twitch gone it's just a lot of times it wasn't talked about it happened this year there was a video of it emmer who's really popular so people know about it and also you have people like me to cover it but yeah it's been happening every year. Every year. I ask anybody, anybody that's going to TwitchCon, there's so many

23:33

instances of weird shit like this happening. I don't understand why any streamer went there to begin with. Yeah and Play boom actually have a 20 bodyguards doesn't something something doesn't sound like a bad idea. Yeah. Yeah sure right and Anyway, so I'll go back and I'll look at this so I did make a longer statement about this because I had said originally Aspen gold urges women to avoid twitchcon 2025 I said that if I was a woman I would never go to twitchcon and I said this might be a bit of a longer post. Sorry, and I will explain why I said that if I was a woman I would never go to TwitchCon and I said this might be a bit of a longer post

24:06

Sorry, and I will explain why I said that To expand on the statement the reason I said this actually had nothing to do with Charlie Kirk or any other civil unrest this year Well, of course, that's an agitating variable It wasn't the reason last year at TwitchCon NMP, LOL and Wake Wilder were sexually assaulted live on camera. Twitch made no statement and pretended like it didn't happen. That type of behavior is disgusting, wrong, and has no place in civilized society.

24:38

Anyone with a brain knew that if this had happened to a female creator at the time, Twitch's response would have been to have would have been completely different. Anyone without a brain had that proven last night. That was with Emeril. And I had said this even then. That was the clip that I played at the beginning of the show. And so to me, this proved an undeniable cynical reality. Twitch doesn't care about sexual assault. They care about the optics of sexual assault. If they had cared, they would have approached it with men in the same way.

25:10

This proves their motives are driven by optics, not rather than principle. Under that reasoning, it could be assumed that Twitch, why would Twitch, that Twitch would allow the same thing to happen again this year? Why wouldn't they? They got away with it last year. That was the true reasoning behind what I said. That was why.

25:30

Even now, Twitch refuses to apologize to Emaru or even name her. Innocuous to the uninitiated, but obvious to the informed. They are refusing to apologize because it could be used against them in a lawsuit. They are refusing to name her because it could avoid boosting SEO, search engine optimization, connecting the company to this event, and to not further spread her name in the hopes that it will minimize this controversy.

26:02

In front of everyone, they put optics over principle and insult your intelligence by assuming that you're too stupid to see it. Actions speak louder than words and what people avoid saying often reveals their true intent. I apologize that sometimes whenever I speak on issues that I do in such a way that is brash and offensive and it polarizes people against me. When things like this happen it makes me think about that a lot. Could I have made a bigger difference if I was less of an asshole? Maybe. Stay safe,

26:30

trust your instincts, and believe what you see and not what you hear.

26:36

So, I felt like I had to say something about this. There's one question that has been coming up on social media just in terms of safety and security at TwitchCon in light of recent events. So I want to be very clear. We take security at our events like TwitchCon extremely seriously. Every year we build on successful approach to TwitchCon

26:58

safety and security.

27:00

Like last year, you allowed two male streamers to be sexually assaulted, and this year you've allowed a female streamer to be sexually assaulted And those are just the ones that we know about on camera right now So you are truly building on it You're you are building

27:16

Clearly as we become aware of new or emerging Security or safety challenges, so we have teams focused on this year round, including keeping creators.

27:26

Fire them. Fire every single one of them. They don't know what they're doing. Either you don't know what they're doing, they don't know what they're doing, or none of you know what they're doing.

27:40

Because one of those has to be the answer. Community matter safe on Twitch or at TwitchCon. See this is what I was saying like where there's smoke there's fire. If you have a moderation team that can't even figure out how to ban somebody who's making an active threat against another streamer openly to their audience. And this has happened multiple times.

28:14

You know how like there's like that ancient Chinese proverb or it's like, oh, well, you know, where's the world and it's on top of a turtle and then where's the turtle and that's on top of another turtle and then where's that turtle? It's turtles all the way down Well, this is retards all the way down That's it

28:34

The entire thing is fucked Elephants too. Yeah

28:41

We have rules and standards regarding twitchcon attendees that therefore follow I guess we limit for example if people who've been indefinitely suspended off-service violations they're not able to attend we also look for things that need to protect our streamers and any other also look for things that need to protect our streamers and any other

28:58

issues well that didn't happen
