Tectone under fire for mocking Jacksepticeye’s autism diagnosis

As a long-time fan of the vibrant and diverse world of content creation, I find myself deeply disheartened and disappointed by the recent actions of Twitch streamer Tectone. His mockery and derogatory comments towards Jacksepticeye, who bravely shared his autism diagnosis, are not only distasteful but also indicative of a profound lack of empathy and understanding.

Streamer Tectone has received criticism following his comments that ridiculed Jacksepticeye’s autism diagnosis and disparaged him for sharing this personal aspect of himself openly.

On November 27th, internet personality Jacksepticeye revealed on his social media platform (originally known as Twitter) that he had recently been diagnosed with autism following an evaluation by medical professionals.

The announcement received a flood of endorsement from admirers and peers within the creative community, who applauded him for his candor regarding his health condition.

Nevertheless, not all individuals reacted favorably. The controversial Twitch streamer, Tectone, encountered criticism following his disrespectful remark about Jacksepticeye in a since-removed post.

Recently, I received formal confirmation that I’ve been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. A few weeks back, I underwent an evaluation process, and today, the results were confirmed.

Instead of saying ‘Oh got,’ which is disrespectful and reinforces harmful stereotypes about individuals with cognitive impairments, consider using phrases like ‘He’s highly honored’ or simply ‘He’s praised.’ These alternatives convey the same meaning without resorting to derogatory language.

Many users slammed Tectone for using the term, with one writing: “It just proves he isn’t very educated on what autism is because having minor autism is more common than not having it.”

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Ableism is the worst form of discrimination,” another said. “The r word is a slur, it’s offensive and incredibly rude,” a third added.

The comment also received criticism from JustaMinx, who wrote: Having the audacity to look like this and tweet sh*t like this while being an abuser is f**king insane lmaoo.”

It’s astonishingly bold for someone who appears as they do, posts such remarks on Twitter, and is known to be an abuser. It leaves one in disbelief, chuckling slightly.

The uproar arises after Tectone left OTK due to numerous sexual misconduct allegations from his former partner, Pinkchyu. Despite his strong denial of these charges, he has also requested an apology, insisting that the accusations against him are unfounded.

He claimed that Pinkchyu was ‘imagining’ “problems that never happened,” adding: “It’s insane how these things that have happened in your own mind — you are now coming at me, and this just isn’t cute.”

Tectone made it clear that he intends to resolve any issues he has with Pinkchyu through legal means, providing her with a specific deadline to get in touch with his attorney.

The accusations have sparked strong opposition, with fellow streamer Asmongold expressing his disapproval. He suggested that if the accusations are validated, Tectone could potentially serve prison time.
