xQc, during his currently ongoing April 23, 2024, Kick stream, spoke at length about what took place in the recent stream with Adin Ross. For those out of the loop, Adin Ross’s friends Cuffem and ShnaggyHose used transphobic and homophobic language to refer to Felix "xQc," which led to him leaving the stream.
During the April 23 stream, xQc spoke about this, giving his thoughts on using words like the F-word, and the N-word. He brought up people using the F-word “as a joke,” which many on the internet do, claiming they aren’t using it maliciously. After highlighting a moment from his past, the content creator used it as an example, stating that using the F-word in that case would be malicious:
“You’re using it in an anti-gay way.”
xQc spoke up about Adin Ross’s friends using the F-word in stream
During the recent Adin Ross stream, Cuffem and ShnaggyHose used a variety of slurs, aimed at xQc. Their defense was that Felix called SchnaggyHose “fat and broke,” which justified using a variety of slurs, according to Adin Ross, who said they’d obviously “hold their ground.”
In the recent xQc clip, the Canadian streamer compared using the F-word, to the N-word. In many cases, content creators, streamers, and online gamers claim that using the F-word isn’t homophobic, it’s just a joke. This is what the streamer’s response was:
“If you’re gonna go around calling people the F-Word, it’s gonna be hard for you to find an argument to tell people not to call you the N-Word. That’s just the basis of that. That doesn’t apply to ‘What about broke, and fat,' that’s, not only, do I not agree with your take, the world, and society, doesn’t agree with you.”
For context on the N-Word being brought up, there was another clip from this stream, where xQc claimed that the N-Word and F-Word both have “the same equivalency.” He brought up that people claim it’s fine to use these words when it’s not aimed at that particular person, such as a gay or black person.
When these words are aimed at someone who is in those demographics, that it’s malicious. According to Felix, they are both the worst word you can use to describe one of those people, in a malicious manner.
The streamer pointed out that things like being talked trash for being broke, or fat, in this case, are things people can change. However, using things that people cannot control, like being gay, is a whole different story, and it wasn’t okay to use the F-word as a "joke":
“A lot of things you can’t change, that people lose opportunities over, people that, how it f**ked your life over, right? Of course, people will say ‘history’, blah blah blah, you can say whatever you want. Here’s how it goes. They said, the F-word, it’s fine to use it, dude, if you don’t use it, against gay people, it’s just a joke dude. ‘I’m using the F-word as a joke!’ So funny, dude.”
xQc, continuing this discussion, said that, if hypothetically, he agreed with that statement, and these people found his “hidden clip,” which likely referenced the time he and AustinShow kissed back in 2022, which Adin Ross recently reacted to. In this case, it’s not a joke:
“If another person thinks, ‘Oh wow, this person is gay. I will now use the F-word. Okay? Well in this scenario, the defense falls flat. You can’t say it anymore. ‘Oh dude, I didn’t use it maliciously.’ Bro, you weren’t calling me the F-word, now that you think I’m gay, now you’re using the F-word. So you are using it in the way that you know not to use it. You can’t say it’s a joke anymore. You’re using it in an anti-gay way.”
xQc would continue his livestream well into the morning of April 23, 2024, but made it perfectly clear he didn’t care for people using homophobic language around him after the events that took place in the recent controversial Kick stream.
