Outcast YouTube streamer Dr Disrespect is already planning a comeback, after admitting to inappropriately talking to a minor, as he attacks his critics.
Just over a month ago, Herschel ‘Guy’ Beahm, otherwise known as Dr Disrespect, admitted that his unexplained ban on Twitch, back in 2020, was due to inappropriately texting a minor. As a result he was thrown out of his own development studio, demonetised on his new platform of choice YouTube, and lost tens of thousands of fans.
The streamer then decided to take a break with his family, but swore he would be back, and even teased his comeback last week when he uploaded a new Twitter header.
His surprisingly swift comeback now appears to be imminent, as he has uploaded another image, of him playing chess, while calling critics ‘brainwashed’ and ‘depressed’.
It’s Dr Disrespect’s first post on social media since the revelations on June 25, and the picture shows him in the background, in a thinking pose, in front of a chess board with both chess and draughts pieces.
There is no text for the image, but the implication seems to be that Dr Disrespect is playing a more complex game than his critics.
Many comments on the tweet criticise Dr Disrespect for what he has done, but rather than show any remorse or contrition he has attacked those who spoke out against him.
One commentor called Dr Disrespect a paedophile, via a Dragon Ball meme, to which the streamer replied:
‘Little brainwashed woke boy putting out Dragon Ball Z gfx with Kendrick Lamar lines… Got me big time.’
Another asked if the image he posted was him ‘playing with a minor’, which has surpassed 100,000 likes, to which Dr Disrespect said:
‘Good one she/her. The internet will never fix your real threat… depression.’
Dr Disrespect is using the same tone against his critics as he did in his admission tweet, where he said:
‘But trust me when I say this… to all my haters that live and breath social media with zero real life experience, I don’t give a f*** about you.
‘Finally, if you’re uncomfortable with this entire statement and think I’m a piece of s***, that’s fine. But I’m not f***ing going anywhere.’
It’s unclear where Dr Disrespect will stream when he eventually makes his comeback, as he’s permanently banned on Twitch and was demonetised on YouTube in June.
Unless he can start making money off his YouTube channel again, that leaves Kick and TikTok as the most obvious options, though they are the two less popular platforms for gaming.
Regardless, Dr Disrespect seems adamant about making a comeback, and it looks like it will be sooner rather than later – whether fans like it or not.
