The British Twitch streamer explained how his fans had been slighted, saying:"Hello this video is a message to Dream. If you've been off the internet in the past couple days and haven't kept up, basically if you are one of my subscribers, Dream has called you a slur. So, deal with that how you want. Okay, now look, I have Dream blocked on everything and I intend to keep it that way."He went on to criticize the usage of the r-word slur, stating that it should not be thrown around like in the meme:"So Dream, hello mate, let's just dive right in, shall we? Let's talk about you calling all my fans the r-slur. You can't throw around the r-slur mate you just can't!"TommyInnit claims Dream using the r-word slur amid their beef was "immature and reckless"After sharing the controversial meme, Dream also went live on Twitch and went on a long rant criticizing various creators in the Minecraft community. Here's a short recap for those who missed the stream:On the same day, TommyInnit responded with a YouTube video. While he did accuse Dream and his group of being sexist and harassing vulnerable people, Tommy first criticized him for the r-word usage. Thomas explained how he had worked with adults with disabilities since he was a kid:"My mom worked with adults with disabilities and since I was 12 I volunteered with her. These are real f**king amazing people, who I think of like family, who actually get called this slur."TommyInnit then stated that using the r-world slur was very immature and reckless:"And you do not just throw it around. It's impossibly immature an d reckless and sets such a sh**ty precedent to everyone.
