Some people have been mean, like when they made fun of Dreams’ chin and said he looked like the disgraced YouTuber Shane Dawson. On Twitter, “Put the mask back on” was a famous phrase.
But Dream was also very thirsty. It started before people knew what he looked like. It’s just that now it’s more specific.
