Controversy
Lying about Dream
On February 25, 2021, Bowblax uploaded a video that was an audiobook on a Google Doc made by John[2]. The doc stated that Dream was slandering him and he lied about him. It also stated that Dream said the n word on Discord. When John was accused of impersonating Dream, he claimed an autistic 12 year old hacked his account and said it. Initially, a lot of YouTubers supported John Swan such as Optimus, Nicholas DeOrio, Bowblax and AugieRFC, and criticized Dream for punching down on a smaller creator. John also harassed multiple people such as HarleyTBS[3] when they doubted him. However later John confessed to lying, which shocked and infuriated several people including his friends, and took a hiatus.
