During a recent livestream, Twitch streamer Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys shared her plans of taking a legal action against the people who enjoy trolling others on the social media, be it a streamer or a fan. However, her decision was widely criticized across different platforms, that compelled her to bring up the matter again.
Poki was playing Valorant on her last stream, when she started talking about how she doesn’t expect everything she talks in the platform, will be clipped, “you say all these things knowing they will be clipped and posted though why be surprised,” she began reading a comment from her Twitch section.
Eventually she told her fans that even though it might come as a shock to them but she doesn’t expect people to ‘clip or ship’ every random thing she says, or does on the internet. Pokimane also highlighted how her statements are often taken out of context, which is quite problematic.
The Canadian Streamer Awards winner continued to say that people don’t pay attention to half of the stuff she says, but random things get clipped out of her livestream. “And that’s; it just is what it is. So, yeah,” the top female Twitch star concluded her response on this situation.
Pokimane wishes to work against cyber bullying
Most of the streamer’s viewers will agree to the fact that Imane Anys has been a subject of several trolls ever since she grew as a Twitch streamer. Her ‘no make up look’ also became a huge deal on the internet, with her facing a severe backlash from her community.
She however, mustered up courage to deal with the online hatred, and now she wishes to help out others as well. She explained during one livestream that she wishes to felicitate the creation of legislation, that works towards curbing down online trolls from social media.
What’s more surprising, is that Poki has already decided the organizations, whom she is going to message so that she can work for a better change and help others escape from being the victims of social media hatred.

Fans are divided on the streamer’s opinions
Her response was again criticized by some of the Redditors on r/livestreamfails, as they highlighted that she said some serious stuff such as putting trolls behind bars, and now she expects people not to clip the video. Another user wrote that Poki was ‘backpedaling’.
During her last stream, she hesitated to go into the details of how she plans to create such kind of legislation but fans can expect her to come up with an announcement soon.
