          (CW: murder, suicide)

          spoiler

          It happens a number of ways, from people getting SWATted and murdered in their homes from overzealous tacticool cops, to people driven to suicide because of influencer-driven bullying and harassment. Even stupid shit like the "Tide Pod Challenge" and "The Hitting Game" affected some people that followed along with it.

        That stuff isn't the "drama" I mean, I'm talking about shit like some streamer complaining about being cancelled by Twitter or some beef they have with some other streamer.
