Pokimane makes tweet referring to distasteful comments about Amouranth case from alternate account

As the most followed female streamer on Twitch, Pokimane has a reputation for standing up for fellow women in the content creation industry. Her tweet about the whereabouts of Amouranth gained decent traction. Unfortunately, the post also attracted a couple of distasteful comments that effectively put the blame on Amouranth for her plight.

Clips of Kaitlyn's tearful message have been circulating over social media for hours now. For those unaware of the charges she's bringing forward, here's a quick recap. The streamer has alleged that her husband threatened to kill her pets if she did not comply with his demands of doing a 24-hour stream. She also accused her spouse of forcing her to lie about her relationship status online and make hot-tub content on Twitch.

This information is already enough for most people to start worrying about the safety of the streamer. But there is more. As she broke down on camera, the 28-year-old content creator also revealed that her husband apparently has all control over her monetary accounts and has threatened to burn all of the money owed to her unless she does what he asks.

"All the f***ing accounts are like, two-factored on his number. He has like, all the login information and the things you know. It's the things that keep you there with the fear and the threats. You fear that he's going to do something to your animals, and then he's nice again."

Why Pokimane deleted her tweet about Amouranth

While the stream and clips have drawn sympathetic comments, some have started to pin the blame for the whole situation on Amouranth. The allegations range from calling her a "liar" to someone who's just saying things online for attention.

After Pokimane took to her alternate account to make the post where she implied she wasn't going to stay on Twitter that day, many of her fans felt the comments deriding Amouranth were the reason behind this decision. The distasteful responses were also likely what made the Legacy streamer delete the tweet where she had expressed concern for Kaitlyn.

Twitter user wenting perhaps sums up the vile comments perfectly by calling them "horrifying to read through."

Pokimane's deleted tweet had acted as a way of raising awareness for the vast majority of people who had no idea what was going on with Amouranth. Many people started sharing resources and profiles of the streamer's friends where real news about the situation could be found.

Some of Pokimane's fans were sympathetic towards Amouranth and made posts hoping she was safe.

As of now, Amouranth's current situation appears to be unknown. But seeing that the whole incident was broadcast to thousands and potentially millions of people online, her spouse would surely think twice before acting in a rash manner.
