Dr Disrespect defends himself as he returns to streaming on YouTube (YouTube)

Disgraced streamer Dr Disrespect is back after being accused of inappropriately messaging a minor, as xQc, Amouranth, and others react to his statement defending himself.

YouTube streamer Herschel ‘Dr Disrespect’ Beahm has made good on his threat to return to streaming, as he said he would when he admitted that the reason he got permanently banned from Twitch in 2020 was because he inappropriately messaged a minor.

Without stating when he’d be back, Dr Disrespect went on vacation, after being booted out of his own games studio and demonetised on YouTube.

Over two months later, the streamer has now returned, but fellow content creators on YouTube and Twitch are not exactly welcoming him back with open arms.

During his comeback stream, Dr Disrespect defended himself, arguing that the minor in question was actually over the legal age of consent, despite saying otherwise in his own statement in June.

He again admitted that there were messages with an individual, and these were the reason he was banned from Twitch, but claims there was no sexting involved.

Top streamers such as xQc, Amouranth, DrLupo, and NickMercs don’t buy it, however, as they all had their say on Dr Disrespect’s comeback and the accusations against him.

One of the most devastating responses came from NickMercs, one of Dr Disrespect’s former friends.

‘This r***** Dr Disrespect is married with children, pushin’ 40. Admits to texting a minor inappropriately. His words, not mine.

‘So I cut ties, because obviously that’s inexcusable. Now I’m a s*** friend for not having his back??? Buncha brain-rot morons on this app,’ he said on Twitter.

While watching a clip of Dr Disrespect defending himself during his comeback stream, xQc seemed to have trouble believing his side of the story, saying:

‘Twitch banned one of their biggest money cows, one of their biggest icons, money-making machines, the poster boy for their company, banned him outright for not sexting a not minor? Gotcha.’

Top streamer DrLupo also didn’t hold back when he was accused of being a bad friend by a fan, going on a rant about the accusation against Dr Disrespect.

‘He messaged a 17-year-old when he was in his late thirties, with a child and married, trying to solicit them for sex.

‘And every single time he talks about it it’s going to be sugarcoated, it’s going to be dumbed down, because at what point do you expect someone to say, ‘Yeah, I wanted to f*** a teenager.’ Do you think he’s going to say that?’ said DrLupo.

Dr Disrespect has not addressed the backlash from his fellow content creators, including streamers he has collaborated with many times, such as NickMercs and DrLupo.

The outcast streamer is currently demonetised on YouTube, because of the scandal, but said he can reapply for partnership, to get his channel’s monetisation back, on September 25.
