Chris Klemens, a YouTuber, is under widespread criticism for his recent social media activities. The content producer s*xualized 5th students and used derogatory language in a series of tweets, prompting netizens to slam Klemens online. On October 15, the 28-year-old posted on Twitter:
“Bratz dolls were for 5th-grade females sucking d**k.”
This is not the first tweet that has surprised internet users.
Klemens remembers hearing someone on the metro state in 2016 that they would physically attack another person regardless of their sexuality. The individual also reportedly used a racial word needlessly. The tweet stated:
“I’ll punch a guy or a woman with my bisexual hands, my n***a.” – a filthy scumbag on the metro
Although the prankster did not seem to be the source of the message, netizens were outraged when they saw Klemens tweet it. While Klemens maintained that he did not use the discriminatory phrase mentioned in the preceding piece, the content author did use the term in a 2012 tweet that read:
“I literally peed myself. “BLOWIN SO MANY N***AS THEY SHOULD CALL ME HURRICANE SANDY KARDASHIAN,” RT @hurricannesandy.
Twitter users respond to Chris Klemens’ tweets
While the use of derogatory language garnered Klemens some criticism, netizens were even more taken aback when they saw the YouTuber s*xualize young females in his post. Many people chastised him for portraying elementary school youngsters negatively.
Here are a few reactions:
It’s annoying how toys can’t be toys. Like maybe some of us just liked bratz dolls cause there feet could come off 🤷🏼♀️
