Twitch streamer 4Conner has left social media after chat logs showing him using racist, sexist, and anti-Semitic language leaked online. The Discord chat app messages, from between 2018 to 2020, contain multiple uses of the n-word and selfies ahead of either the Stars and Bars or the Novorossiya flag, referred to as a logo of the pro-Russia movement in occupied Crimea. The logs contain statements posted throughout 2018 and 2019, like “I just dont think women are funny which they’re only good for procreation.” His most up-to-date message within the logs is from June 2020, writing “I can’t imagine being openly racist, like what benefit does it have.”

Comments on both these posts were swarmed with references to blankets, mocking 4Conner for his previous statement. That same day, Mizkif was quick to share his thoughts. “Conner is not any longer allowed at my house ever again,” Mizkif says. “There is being edgy, i used to be an edgy person and that i will never deny that, and you’ll learn from it. “But, a number of these logs are recent, slightly below a year old, it isn’t just a touch bit, it is a lot.”

Other streamers who had interacted with 4Conner over the years came forward to share their statements. Niknam wrote during a now-deleted tweet, “if you discover yourself happy when somebody else fails or gets destroyed, albeit they deserve it, that says more about you than it does about them and that is facts.” Streamer Nick Polom echoed Niknam’s sentiments in his own tweet but later clarified on his stream, saying “I don’t even know 4Conner, why would I defend someone like that?” Streamer and girlfriend of Tyler 1, Macaiyla posted a Twitlonger about things . within the leak, you’ll see a conversation she had with 4Conner where he says the n-word and she or he or he acknowledges that she was “wrong to not speak up” and she was edgy at that time” but does “not act like that now.”
