A video featuring controversial figure Deyione "EDP445" has received significant backlash from the online community. In the video, the internet personality accused Chris Tyson, a longtime friend of Jimmy "MrBeast," of having a negative influence on children.

While the content creator claimed that he has no personal agenda against the transgender or gay community, he said individuals like Tyson should keep their distance from children. He said in the video:
"We gotta protect our youth."
