Dream expressed his frustration with the situation, claiming he had been “harassed for almost a year” due to the allegations made shortly after his face was revealed.
He said: “That one false accusation turned into ‘Dream was talking to children, there are loads of accusations, Dream never denied it, Dream was exposed while they were playing children’, and much worse.” All because of past parasociality (which, yes, I can be responsible for that).”

But don’t let the idea that I’m “either way bad” lead you to trample over future stories of real victims or devalue “care” to make sure I fit the definition.
and I know I can’t convince anyone on Twitter who’s made up their mind. It just feels right to finally share it

Dream explained that spreading misinformation was “harmful to real victims” and urged those who were convinced of his wrongdoing not to “devalue grooming” just to make sure he “fit the definition.”
“This is not drama, this is serious stuff with serious implications,” he said. “I can say in so many words: I am not a pedo, I have not groomed anyone and my heart goes out to all the victims who need to tell their true story [and] Trauma is thrown in their faces for internet points.”
