LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Felix Lengyel aka xQc chastised Nadia Amine, a Twitch broadcaster, on X (formerly Twitter) for a post supporting Imane Anys, popularly known as Pokimane, in the midst of the Myna snack controversy.

A rebranding incident involving Pokimane's new brand, Myna Snacks, has gone viral on social media. Many have criticized her response to the criticism as being 'callous'.

xQc criticizes Nadia for supporting Pokimane

Nadia came out in favor of Pokimane, despite the fact that Pokimane accepted responsibility for her joke about the "broke boy" and responded to people's concerns about the cost of her cookies.

The streamer asserted that "hatred towards women" on the Internet was primarily to be blamed for the commotion that erupted after the launch of her cookies brand. But xQc disagrees, arguing that there was a lot of legitimate criticism of the product.

xQc's acerbic reproach is as follows, "Yes Nadia, it is the hate towards women that gave the cookies their price tag."

The tweet further read, "Coincidently, it’s also the hate towards women that made everyone live paycheck to paycheck and not able to afford luxury goods. There’s no valid criticism here, tell em queen."

Pokimane pens apology for 'insensitive' joke

Pokimane, a prominent figure in the streaming community, has faced controversy over the pricing of her Myna Cookies. During a livestream, she made a humorous remark about the $28 price tag of her cookies, causing a backlash on social media.

Pokimane apologized for the joke and acknowledged the insensitivity of her words. She has since committed to reevaluating the cost of her cookies, acknowledging the impact of her comments and the financial burden on certain followers.

She has pledged to consider making Myna Cookies as affordable as possible.

The apology read, "While what i said was 100% intended to be a joke, i see why it came off as insensitive and i apologize for that. i also understand the current price of the cookies may be expensive for some, and promise we’ll continue to consider pricing to keep myna as affordable as possible."

As the controversy unfolds, fans await specifics on the changed pricing system and how it will affect the larger streaming community.

Pokimane's actions will serve as a case study on how content creators can overcome problems while maintaining good relationships with their audience.
