A sitdown with the pop culture and politics streamer at TwitchCon 2024
Caroline Kwan is tired, but you can’t tell. The political fundraiser turned actor turned Twitch streamer is sitting across from me in a Twitch Con meeting room on the last day of the convention, wearing a pink boilersuit and sneakers, her hair pulled back off her face, looking clear-eyed and alert. “This year was like, oh my god. Day one: Debatelords rehearsal, meet and greet, back to Debatelords for the show, afterwards business dinner. It’s a lot,” she exhales.
Do not do this. Women are not consenting to this.’ Then I had the lasers put on me because it’s about power. It’s about control. That is what sexual abuse of women is about. And AI deepfakes are digital sexual abuse.” For several minutes, Kwan and I go back and forth exchanging horror stories about the DMs and comments we’ve both received, and how they are steeped in the tired misogyny of the internet, of GamerGate, of angry young men.
