A clip from VTuber Kirsche's Twitch and YouTube stream from May 3, 2025, has garnered a lot of attention on social media, after the streamer seemingly defended Shiloh Hendrix's fundraiser. During her stream, Kirsche was reacting to a specific post by an X user, Bostonians Against Mayor Wu (@AntiWuCoalition), when she gave her remarks about Shiloh Hendrix's fundraiser online.
The VTuber called out the social media user, calling them 'hypocritical' for wanting to shut down the charity drive because the same platform allowed the Karmelo Anthony fundraiser. She stated that they shouldn't shut down Hendrix's campaign, reasoning that the Minnesota resident's actions were much less serious than Anthony's, who raised $521,758 through a similar fundraising campaign on GiveSendGo.
The Twitch streamer said:
"Bostonians against Mayor Wu, unfortunately, seems like a giga c**k. 'The fact that you can raise money for calling a 5-year-old the N word is insane. Hope they shut down her campaign.' They shouldn't. They didn't shut down Karmelo Anthony's campaign, so getting mad at this just outs you as a very hypocritical person."
For those unaware, Shiloh Hendrix, a woman from Rochester, Minnesota, made headlines after allegedly calling a five-year-old child the N-word during a disagreement at a public park. A video filmed by a man who confronted her at the time went viral on the internet.
Shiloh Hendrix started a fundraiser on May 2, 2025, asking for assistance to relocate, claiming that her family has been threatened since the video was released.
VTuber Kirsche compares Shiloh Hendrix controversy to George Floyd and Karmelo Anthony incidents, calls it "the consequence of where we are now"
Kirsche called out the X user @AntiWuCoalition for asking followers to donate to them instead of to Shiloh Hendrix. She went on to read the X user's bio and insinuated that they were racist against white people for opposing Shiloh Hendrix:
"[Reading the X user's bio] 'No racism, no hate.' No racism, no hate, unless it's against white people, I guess."

The VTuber acknowledged that most people do not support using racial slurs against children, but went on to compare the Shiloh Hendrix controversy to past events about George Floyd and Karmelo Anthony, stating:
"Bostonian guy [the X user who criticized the fundraiser] said, 'Oh no, what am I going to do with followers who think it is okay to call a 5-year-old the N-word?' I don't think most people think it's okay. I think that there are a lot of people who are tired of things happening, like Daniel Penny, the whole George Floyd incident, and the Summer of Love, like Karmelo Anthony."
The streamer then claimed that people are "tired of the two-tier justice system," and seemed to insinuate that Shiloh Hendrick's usage of the N-word was "just the consequence of where we are at now":
"There are just a lot of people tired of the two-tier justice system, and they start saying some crazy things and doing some crazy things. That doesn't make it okay, but it's just the consequence of where we are at now, unfortunately."
The clip from Kirsche's broadcast shared by @NBinted on X on May 3, 2025, has gone viral, garnering over 2 million impressions within two days. Later on in the stream, Kirsche called out "both sides" for advocating violence against people and said:
"I don't like seeing this kind of, like, violence against other people. Not that words are violence, but there are people advocating for violence on both sides. And I don't like seeing that."
At the time of writing, Shiloh Hendrix has raised over $615K through her fundraiser on the GiveSendGo website.
