History repeats itself as streamer who raided Pokimane faces the same fate as LeafyIsHere

Pokimane has often been a target for online bullies. However, she is also well known for not submitting to this online harassment without a fight. The OfflineTV streamer has often gotten streamers banned for annoying her online.

In the past, Anys had gotten YouTuber LeafyIsHere's YouTube account banned after he posted a video where he tried to tarnish her reputation by dissing everything about her, beginning with her appearance to her gameplay skills and community.

It seems like history has repeated itself in 2022, as Twitch streamer JiDion received a permanent ban from Twitch after sending his fans to bully the Twitch star and her viewers on her chat.

JiDion becomes the second streamer to receive a permaban for harassing Pokimane online

The OfflineTV streamer received her first-ever Twitch ban at the beginning of 2022 for flouting DMCA rules. However, after her return to the platform, another Twitch streamer, JiDion, sent his fans over to her Twitch chat to hate raid. His viewers ended up whispering to her Twitch chat as well, sending distasteful messages.

The RTS owner ended her stream early, and JiDion received a suspension from Twitch. However, the streamer's suspension has turned into a permanent ban from the purple platform, as he informed on his Twitter earlier today.

Naturally, this situation reminds people of Leafy's ban from YouTube after committing a similar offence. LeafyIsHere got his YouTube account terminated after he uploaded a video where he bullied Pokimane for the entire duration of his video.

The former YouTuber commented on her fanbase, gameplay and her appearance. Furthermore, he even sparked up rumours about her relationship status. As expected, this video was not well-received by the OfflineTV star or other streamers in the community, and Leafy got terminated from YouTube.

The video elicited reactions from several top streamers in the industry, including the likes of xQc.

JiDion has also received a similar punishment from the purple platform, although his ban can partially be credited to the behavior of his fans. Pokimane has made it clear on both occasions that she will not stand down to people bullying her online.
