The streamer ELoTRiX is known for his angry speeches on Twitch. However, a recent outburst was not actually intended for the public and is now causing a discussion.
What does ELoTRiX have against stoners? During a joint stream with his friend, content creator MontanaBlack, ELoTRiX was apparently disturbed by the employee’s marijuana consumption. The smell made him sick and gave him a headache, said the streamer.
In the background, ELoTRiX can be heard calling the employee a “weed-smoking loser” and complaining about “shitty stoners”. The corresponding stream excerpt landed on X on September 18, 2024, where it sparked a discussion.
ELoTRiX vs. Stoner
What is being discussed? ELoTRiX’s comments are received very differently. Some users are also critical of (excessive) drug consumption and agree with the streamer. Others find such generalizations unfair and speak of double standards: if you are against weed, you must also be against alcohol.
A user who calls himself “Cannasseur” and whose profile picture is a cannabis leaf writes: “That’s what the person who gets paid with the money of small children and doesn’t have a real job says.” (via X)
However, another says: “I like to smoke weed myself, but ELoTRiX is just right here.” (via X)
In another clip, ELoTRiX admits that the statements were probably not intended for the public: He tried to mute his microphone. That apparently didn’t quite work.
The streamer also explains that the employee lit 6-8 joints in 4-5 hours – while at work. For him, that is no longer healthy consumption. You can watch the clip here:
ELoTRiX believes that most people who defend the employee also smoke a lot of weed. He doesn’t seem to care much about criticism from this direction. The streamer also receives a lot of approval in the comments under this clip.
Nevertheless, ELoTRiX seems to have at least some insight into the matter, saying that the insult was unnecessary. He allegedly apologized to the employee (via X).
The glorification of drugs is not the first time that MontanaBlack has been the subject of discussion. He once banned his long-time moderator from his chat because he made positive comments about psychedelics: Twitch streamer MontanaBlack falls out with “Big Mac, ban him” moderator
