This headline made me think of the Christina Grimmie case. She was a youtube singer that was murdered by a fan at a meet and greet event. The fan had a parasocial relationship with her and actually thought she was in love with him. Christina wasn't even a thot streamer, she just posted videos of her singing. I'm surprised that worse hasn't happened to these twitch thots considering the dynamics they form with their simps are much more intimate and unhealthy. Yeah, donating to a streamer doesn't mean the streamer likes you or owes you anything, but these people don't live in reality or understand that. If I was a twitch thot with thousands of drooling simps I would be terrified to step foot outside. These people are obsessed and there's a very fine line between love and hate when it comes to obsession. The obsession becomes so insense that the only way to satifsy the mental torture is to marry the person or kill them.
Not that people deserve to be assaulted, but I think there is some responsibility on streamers to set boundaries with a crowd of people who they know worship them. It's like women who keep male friends around that they know have a crush on them but no intention of starting a relationship with them, they just like the attention (Another fatal example... Bianca Devins. RIP.)
