Dream vs TommyInnit feud escalates over offensive meme

Minecraft creators Dream and TommyInnit clash over controversial meme and xQc comments.

A feud between prominent Minecraft content creators Clay "Dream" and Thomas "TommyInnit" has sparked controversy in the live-streaming community. The drama began on January 11, 2025, when Dream posted a series of now-deleted tweets addressing TommyInnit’s recent remarks about Felix "xQc." This followed TommyInnit’s critique of xQc’s viral interaction with Donald Trump during a livestream by Adin Ross.

xQc responded by accusing Tommy of building his popularity by aligning with Dream. Dream soon joined the discourse, sharing a meme that many found offensive. The meme depicted a DreamSMP fan choosing between "growing up" and becoming a derogatory term for TommyInnit fans. This drew sharp criticism, with some accusing Dream of ableism and "alt-right" tendencies.

Dream defended himself, citing his autism and pointing out double standards in the community. He argued that others had used similar language without backlash, and he expressed frustration over the perceived hypocrisy. Dream acknowledged the upset caused by his actions but claimed the criticism was often disingenuous.

Following the controversy, TommyInnit responded with a sarcastic tweet: “You can call me anything, but do not call me poor, Dream.” The tension between the two creators escalated, with Dream announcing a livestream to address the situation, encouraging his followers to share clips and tweets for discussion.

The ongoing feud has divided the Minecraft community, sparking debates about online conduct, accountability, and the dynamics within the creator ecosystem. The resolution remains uncertain, with both sides garnering support and criticism.
