In case you missed the news, OnlyFans recently announced that they were going to stop allowong explicitly content on the platform, completly shutting the door to thousands of sex workers who had a safe way to earn income.

OnlyFans to Bar Sexually Explicit Videos Starting in October

OnlyFans is getting out of the pornography business.

Meanwhile, popular FaZe Clan player, self-proclaimed #1 at Fortnite, FazeSway, tweets this:

Plenty of people have condemned the tweet both in replies and quotes.



And even with all the backslash, instead of backing down, he continues

And whats the response from his clan, a "professional" team of players, to all the backslash?



It's really concerning that these terrible people are supposed to represent "the best" players in the most popular videogames right now.

Let's not forget that just a couple weeks ago, FaZe clan was involved in a pump and dump crypto scam, targeting kids. At least that time, the couple members that planned it were expelled:

Ironic that he's the one saying they need to get a real job when playing video games professionally is the same level of """not real""" job. Anyway that's a bad look

Somebody that plays Fortnite for a living is actually telling others they'll have to get a real job?

Is this douchebag serious??

The hate that is being spewed right now online about sex workers is disgusting, and it's coming primarily from straight men.

I'll say it again, the stigma against sex in society is destructive and literally kills people, and it's coming from a place of toxic masculinity, bigotry and moral bankruptcy.

I abhor the fact that FaZe clan is such a huge name in eSports. The amazing thing is that this kind of shitty behavior would have gotten someone kicked out of my organization back the mid-2000s pro CS scene, but FaZe gives no shits.

To be honest there are a lot of people saying this. Why point out that some pro gamer is saying it?
Why shouldn't we care about the (literally) top player in the top games at the moment? Especially when a lot of people are trying to get e-sports to be widely recognized among society.

With "athletes" like those representing the medium, nobody will ever take e-sports seriously.

It seems like FaZe exclusively hires shitheads. Any time I ever see anything pop up about them, it's for something like this.

No, just like I could give 2 shits about what a "celebrity" has to say about politics.

Seems like typical incel behavior. If they want to earn money through sex, let them.

Weren't some Faze guys recently involved in a heavy crypto scam? And now this hot take comes around?

Man, they seem to hire only the good guys, huh.

I would figure Twitch streamers would be upset by this, given that this only means that people who relied on OF income are going to increase their presence on their Twitch and compete with them or w/e they think.

This would be kind of dumb no matter who said it, but a guy who plays video games for a living?

This is how it always is with big business and the rich. People below them find a way to make exponential money , they don't like that, and so they reduce and limit what people can or cannot do.

this faze guy isnt being helpful and is actually doing OnlyFans a favor… fighting their battles

He acts like a little snowflake for being called out on his shit, while also only being able to do what he does, because Publishers allow him to do it.
They have him more by his tiny balls

Another reminder that just because someone has a fanbase and a platform for being good at a game, does not mean that their opinions are worth a shit or even remotely informed.

He should look in a mirror if he wants to talk about relevancy. You're part of a mediocre team and don't have any real big talents and are easily replaceable by more in the same vein. Maybe it's time you keep options open hunting for a real job.

It's frustrating how hateful people are being about sex workers. It's a real job and should be decriminalized. I also want people to realize that sex workers are also the canary in the coalmines for the LGBTQ+ communities who will absolutely be kicked off by these kinds of decisions too, because of how companies see LGBTQ+ people as sexual in nature by simply existing. It happened with Tumblr, it will happen here, it will happen elsewhere in the future.

"Get a real job" says the guy who does the exact same thing but with video games instead.
