Since being permanently banned from Twitch in 2017, the controversy following Jeff Leach has not subsided as of yet. The Call of Duty: Warzone actor plays as Ghost in the game's story and has since then turned to Facebook Gaming for his streaming opportunities. The Call of Duty: Warzone star is now a partnered streamer for the service, and he often streams Warzone showing off his iconic Ghost voice.
On May 7, another Facebook streamer called NitroLukeDX posted a thread that included several clips of Leach talking about streamer ZomiUnicorn. These clips get rather graphic, but it shows a heavily sexist side to the actor that the community did not expect. One clip even showcased Leach streaming Call of Duty: Warzone while talking about women in a negative manner.
In response to the thread, ZombiUnicorn created their own video to add another voice to the rising concern of many. The Call of Duty streamer reiterated her own confrontations with Leach and is now pushing the varying platforms involved to take action. She is hesitant to respond to this level of toxic behavior, so she carefully has crafted her response to this situation. She calls out Leach for having the same behavior for years and points out that Activision and Facebook Gaming are now supporting him. At one point, she discusses how it is not the job of the gamer to have thicker skin but instead, it is the job of the company to take harassment reports seriously and take action against toxic individuals.
In the end, the goal would be to take away the platform of this Call of Duty: Warzone actor. The idea that Activision and Call of Duty are still hiring him is surprising, and many believe that it devalues their ally efforts. While she blames Jeff Leach for his actions, it is the companies that continue to allow him a platform to spread hate and dissent upon.
There is a large number of female content creators that have joined together in Facebook Gaming. Their goal is to dedicate a live stream with their concerns, and they can be found using the hashtag 'GameOver4Sexism." The group seeks to stop sexist and misogynistic behavior within game environments with the goal of having a clean and more friendly world for all genders in virtual interactions.
Call of Duty has not responded to ZombiUnicorn as of yet, and Facebook Gaming continues to allow his streams to air. It is unknown if their push will have an impact, but fans are hearing their voices grow as the Facebook Gaming community begins to band together towards a common goal.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
