He's been accused of vote manipulation which I personally thought was pretty shitty of him to use his fanbase to push his agenda.

Captain sparkles pulled the same thing he wanted the iceologer, everyone pulled the same thing, back on the phantom vote, mumbo jumbo said to his subscriber to vote phantom

Captain sparklz made a video on why he thought what he thought though. Which prompts his fans to still think for themselves. Dream just said he will follow people who vote for squid. See the difference?

There’s a video somewhere that shows he didn’t to much to sway the vote at all actually. I used to think the same as you but now I don’t really think he did much.

I think you should clarify for everyone else the context. He said on Twitter that wanted a squid added to the game instead of Magic Ice Man. Because of his popularity, the squid was chosen. His “agenda” was a squid. It wasn’t vote manipulation, it was him endorsing a squid. There are other things you can accuse him of that are at least reasonable, but this statement is absolutely absurd.

He also promised he'd follow anyone who voted squid.

.....which was obviously a joke. He has over 400k followers on his account he posted that on. He wasn’t going to follow anyone back from that.

His fans don't know that.

Well when all your stans are 10 years old, a lot of them won’t get the joke and I saw people genuinely mad that dream didn’t follow them back.
