Felix “xQc” Lengyel gambled on a crane machine in a past stream. This sparked a debate between viewers and the Twitch streamer.
What was that debate? Viewers donated to xQc and tagged the donation with messages that were automatically read aloud in the stream by a bot. The point was that one side thought he was pointlessly gambling away the money he received from viewers.
The other side stood with xQc and felt that he could do whatever he wanted with the money. As the donations rolled in and the chat also joined in the discussion, xQc became more and more annoyed:
Apparently I have to pave the damn way to heaven. Apparently I can’t just make content these days. (…) I always have to make sure that the content is morally and ethically correct.

xQc flips out – yells at viewers in rage
The donations, accusations and discussions did not stop and at some point it became too much for xQc, he yelled at his viewers:
I am expected to save the world, support every charity out there, care about ethical, social and political problems. I’m expected to beat diseases, cancer, entertain chat and educate children of all. I play video games, I don’t educate children!

In the Twitch clip you can see the streamer’s freak out:
He just wants to gamble and produce content, he said. However, he said that since xQc was now considered an “influencer”, he always had to be careful about what he was doing. When a viewer said that he shouldn’t care about those who want to cancel him, he said that but care about having a happy community.
Of course, as the biggest streamer on the platform, there are even more eyes on him and his mistakes than there are on lesser ones.
Some viewers even suggested that he may very well be raising children, as he influences them with his content. But xQc was sure that he would be criticized anyway, no matter what he streamed and how he pointed it out.
Even if he took measures like an age restriction or a paywall for his stream and made massive references to gambling, he would still get clobbered.
Gambling was also the issue with streamer Mizkif:
