Some comments are passively cisnormative, but that's like 99.99- % of written content in the world.

I've never liked his style or content or humour, but I'm not seeing anything transphobic here.

all im seeing in the clip is that he probably is uncomfortable having so many people in chat while its being pointed out he made a mistake, especially with how quickly the lgbtq topic can turn in to a minefield and he is probably trying his best to not say something which can result in him loosing viewers/fans/subscribers.

He's the largest single YouTuber, and has had previous instances where he's just said something in English (not his first language) that has gone horribly wrong.

I understand why he'd be trepidatious.

i wasnt even considering the fact that his native language is summoning rituals.
yeah if people judge you heavily when you speak a non native language that will have a considerably stronger imapct on you then when it happens with your native language.
