Imane "Pokimane" Anys, a Twitch streamer, terminated her stream early Wednesday night when Jidienpremium's viewers raided her stream at his request, harassing her and her fans in the stream chat and their Twitch whispers. She assumed it was bots at first, but she soon learned it was her fellow partnered streamer's fans in her chat who had come to her broadcast after he instructed his chat to follow her and "everyone say L + Ratio" in her chat.
On top of the normal chat spam, Poki fans also reported being harassed in their whispers by Jidion viewers, leading to Poki ending early, saying, "I think I am going to end stream because, like as much as I can deal with this, I don't like that people on his stream are whispering people on my stream. I'll put up with the bullsh*t, but I don't want you guys to put up with bullsh*t."
"I think it is against TOS to do stuff like that," Pokimane stated earlier in the stream, after the hate raid had begun. "To send your viewers to sh*t on another streamer? Because Twitch has a harassment policy. Brigading is against the rules, I am pretty sure. . . I am tired of being incels punching bag, go be sad about yourself and insecure elsewhere."
