Dimitri Monroe (birthday: December 13), also known as TheSMonroeShow, is an American YouTuber and streamer who reviews video games, mostly action RPGs, and the communities surrounding them on YouTube and Twitch.
Content
Dimitri's approach to commentary surrounding the communities, mostly controversial and touchy subjects, is a rather mellow and balanced one with the occasional hint of perversion and homosexual interests. His most popular video explores Pokemon and the downfall of its popularity. Dimitri is also a crossdresser, and crossdresses to the point he was mistaken as transgender. He also talks about his experience in the LGBT community as a bisexual man. He stated that the identity politics of the community frustrated and invalidated[1] him.
His earliest videos were of gameplays of Undertale, Pokémon, No Man's Sky, and Super Smash Brothers. He would occasionally upload a lot of shitposts in between serious commentary. Dimitri liked talking about games as a medium[2] and their relation to journalists[3]. He would also defend controversial anime and games[4] (for example, Goblin Slayer)[5] and responds to critiques of them.
Controversy
In 2020, Dimitri made a video called "Trap Is Not A Slur: A History Lesson" in response to several YouTubers, including ThePedanticRomantic. This led to allegations that he was transphobic and harassing her.[6] Dimitri and his friend Jeko were also accused of stalking her in her Discord server. This resulted in her making her Twitter private.
