0:00.0 | Sop you beautiful bastards. Hope you've got a fantastic Tuesday. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show. |
0:05.1 | And if you're one of those people that are like Phil, I like the long show. Today is one of |
0:09.3 | those days that you need to hit the like button. Otherwise, I think editor James is going to throat |
0:12.3 | punch me. But with that said, let's just jump into this thing. And the first thing we're to talk |
0:16.1 | about today is this news and outrage around a Twitch streamer by the name of Alinity. And Alinity has been in the |
0:21.2 | news before. There was that copyright situation a long time ago. She is no stranger to outrage. |
0:26.7 | But this time, the outrage wasn't about what she wanted to do to someone's channel, what she wanted |
0:30.2 | to do to another human, but rather a pet. And specifically, it's about this moment in a live stream. |
0:34.9 | Guys, let's just up a here. Milo! Alright, so some people have described it as a throw, some saying it was kind of a lift and drop. |
0:43.3 | But main point, a lot of people were angry. |
0:45.3 | He ended up seeing PETA tweet at Twitch support, |
0:47.3 | adding take a stand for cats and please remove validity from Twitch immediately. |
0:50.3 | She is using the platform to post animal abuse, which sends a dangerous message to anyone watching her videos. Cats are not props to abuse for more views. In that single |
0:58.2 | video, just on Twitter, had over 7 million views. That tweet got over 102,000 likes. People also |
1:03.6 | started looking through Al-Lennity streaming archive, and ultimately finding a clip where it appears |
1:07.1 | that she's letting her cat drink a small amount of vodka from her lips. And in response to the backlash, we saw a lenity tweet, |
1:11.6 | Hey everyone, I understand the concern, and I am sorry for my lapses in judgment. |
1:15.6 | I shouldn't have gotten frustrated with Milo, but I dropped him on the floor behind my chair. |
1:18.6 | I'm not that strong. The vodka thing was well over a year ago, but it pet authorities and encourage anyone to do so if they feel pets are being mistreated by anyone anywhere. My animals are well loved and live in a warm and caring home and I will comply with any authority that seeks to validate this. Then posting this video, then the following day, tweeting out, it be like with a gif of someone punching a clown. Then the following day, she tweeted, please stop coming to my house and asking my neighbors where I am. It's actually really scary. Also, while all of this is happening, there have been a lot of people |
1:46.6 | complaining that Alinity has not been suspended or banned from Twitch. And people started sharing an |
1:50.5 | alleged screenshot where it appears that she says, don't worry guys, I'm fine. I spoke to someone at Twitch |
1:54.5 | today and I'm not getting banned. But people who have been harassing me might be. And possibly in reference to that, or maybe there were some other screenshots, she appeared to respond, tweeting, hate to interrupt a good witch hunt in full swing, |
