Online gambling is already a pretty debatable topic for many. While the subject has some pretty vague aspects, most popular streamers are stern about their anti-gambling views. Content creators like HasanAbi have repeatedly talked about their disapproval of gambling and why it shouldn’t be promoted by famous people. On the other hand, others believe that gambling can be a good life lesson for people and that people should learn from their own mistakes. However, the impact of online gambling on younger generations can be a sensitive topic that should have some delving into.

In a recent Twitch stream, Tyler1 made his views clear as to where he stands when it comes to young folks and gambling.
