Ninja Responds to Fan Being Bullied for Liking his Stream

Tyler "Ninja" Belvins had a year to remember in 2018, as the popular Twitch streamer and YouTuber rose to becoming the most popular video game player in the world. The main game of choice for Ninja during his rise to being the face of the gaming community to mainstream culture has been the title of Fortnite Battle Royale that rose to become the most discussed, watched and played game in the world during 2018.

However, as with anyone or anything that becomes incredible popular there has been plenty of negative sentiments directed at Ninja and Fortnite. One of the latest instances of these negative sentiments was brought to light when a fan of the content creator explained to the streamer that he was being made fun of for liking his Twitch streams. 

"You're my favorite streamer, and people at school make fun of me for it," the fan of Ninja told the Twitch Fortnite streamer during one of his recent streams. 

"Listen dude, if you are getting made fun of for liking anything that someone else doesn't like those aren't your friends," responded Ninja. "Those people are losers. They're the losers dude. Who cares? It's your taste. It's an opinion."

Ninja went on to further state that the fan could go back to those who were bullying them for liking to watch Ninja and explain the positives that the Twitch streamer and YouTuber has brought to the video game industry, the charitable work he has accomplished and the dedication he has had over the past eight years to get to where he is currently. 

The high profile Fortnite Twitch and YouTube personality ended his response to his fan by stating that just how someone would not stop listening to their favorite band just because other people didn't like the band's music that his fan should not bother themselves with the opinions of those who make fun of them for liking to watch Ninja.
