Just to clarify! Stopping streaming Splatoon consistently has more to do with me than a bunch of racist. I geniunely realized that I needed to be better and just move on from something that I can't control my emotions with. It just got to be too much to stream on a consistent basis. I am still a fan of the series and I will still play, but I just can't keep lying about my mental health with streaming Splatoon consistently. It's me!

My whole family loves your channel. We love hearing your opinions and passion for the gaming world. Its very frustrating to see that this is happening to you, and likely many other black creators. I wish there was a way we as your fanbase could help bring more security and consistency to your experience online. I'm sad that the harassment is also keeping you from doing things you otherwise would do, and its maddening that they have you in a place where you feel you even have to apologize for being elevated. Your emotions are valid. Your placidity and calm shows a lot of inner strength, and the moments where you are serious, showing passion, where you speak your mind are really encouraging.

This reminds me of a different game that I really enjoy but also stopped playing. I wasn't even a content creator. I was genuinely having a blast playing the game, and would come back to it every single day after uni and on weekends. And I am a very calm and rational person. It is hard to tip me off balance. But.. I raged so hard at this game. When I felt that I should have killed the person based on our interaction but instead they killed me. When I kept dying in the same spot over and over again, throwing myself at the wall like a rage-blinded headless chicken. I decided to pull the plug when I smashed my laptop monitor to shards, and to seriously reevaluate my priorities. Do I value my mental health, blood pressure and financial expenses over a little bit of fun? By this point I had ended several computer mice and even a chair, that lost its back, and risked destroying my keyboard and headset, and my neighbors propably thought I was crazy. And I was still genuinely having fun with the game. Just the raging had gone out of control. After almost one year just felt like I was not going anywhere, that everyone else in the game is surpassing me over and over again but I am just stuck. And so I left. And I don't regret it. I do not rage, I am not a maniac in other areas of life, and the amount of enjoyment I would have gotten of those 2 hrs I now get in other places, just without the blinding inferno consuming me almost daily.

I’m sorry that you’ve had such unpleasant experiences within gaming and certain spaces. Splatoon is supposed to be a game where people can have fun and feel included. People who have racist things to say are secretly livid that gaming and the world as a whole is becoming more diverse. Please keep speaking up about this because we need more and more of these people exposed for who they are and what they believe in. I think you are an inspiration for many (myself included) within the black community who enjoy gaming but deal with racism, and choose not to let it slide. Gaming means a lot to many Black players and that will never change.🙌🏾🙌🏾🎮🎮❤❤

Seeing those usernames in the intro was all I needed to see to understand what your going through. (ofc I watched the entire video too) Really sorry to hear that this kind of behavior makes its way to your streams, because the fact that people go out of their way to do that, and that twitch doesn't have defense/filters for that, is insane. No community should be gatekeeping like that. The true irony here is that this is happening to a community of a game where the entire plot of its first DLC was about inclusivity. Unbelieve. Glad your speaking up though, although I only worry that it makes you a larger target... All in all, don't feel like you have to stream Splatoon man! Only do what is reasonable for you!

As a PoC myself that has witnessed & dealt with what Ken has went through, I can confirm that everything he says is true. Dude has been a legit pillar for the black Splatoon community for the entire time I've met him & whilst it sucks that he had to go through what he did, I do appreciate him actively trying to include rather than exclude. It's a silly cephalopod game we're playing on tablets with controllers on the sides. Is it really worth to get this heated over that so much so we push people away?

They don't know how else to be funny, so they do/say outlandish things to get cheap laughs from their friends.. probably comes from a place of insecurity. Either way It's a lot more worth it to be kind to others because being the butt of the joke and hearing the same overused joke over and over by different people gets tiring and can hurt the individual. It's not what YOU think is okay/not okay to say, everyone's different and responds to different things in their own ways and you can't blame it on them if you go out of your way to say hurtful things to everyone without even knowing them, and do it on purpose. How many times do people have to hurt others to understand that not everyone is going to like it? Mockery has become most peoples knee-jerk reaction to everything instead of understanding.. that may be true on both sides(like telling others to off themselves when they're being bad, also does not make them a good person).. anywho ive rambled. Good on you for making a video about how you feel. It was a good watch 👍
