Why is Nick Eh 30 facing transphobia allegations? 

Streamer Nick Eh 30 is a popular Fortnite creator, often recognized for keeping his gameplay family-friendly. Considering this, some netizens online called out Nick for hypocritical behavior after clips of him allegedly expressing transphobia went viral on November 2, 2025. Nick has yet to formally respond to these allegations and has continued with his regularly scheduled programming.

The drama started recently after certain rumors started circulating in the Fortnite community claiming the game has a "Harry Potter" collaboration in the works. In response to these allegations, some, like @Wensoing on X, suggested that this collaboration is inherently transphobic:

"TRANSPHOBIA IS COMING TO FORTNITE IN CHAPTER 7 SEASON 1."

For context, the author of the Harry Potter book series, J.K. Rowling, has consistently been accused of being transphobic based on controversial past comments. In a follow-up post, @Wensoing shared a post that called for action against Fortnite's developer, Epic Games, and the cancellation of the Harry Potter crossover:

"For the unaware, series creator J.K. Rowling has a well-documented history of making harmful transphobic remarks... despite this, Epic Games still made the disappointing decision to collaborate with the franchise. If you feel frustrated about this, I recommend directing these frustrations towards the official Fortnite account - this is the best way to make your voice heard..."

While reviewing his X page, Nick Eh 30 noticed @Wensoing's posts and decided to remove them from his timeline, saying:

"What is this, bro? I'm removing this guy. Holy crap."

In response, some, like @FuellFire, accused Nick Eh 30 of "being transphobic":

"guy who claims to be 'family friendly' and 'spread good vibes' being transphobic."

More chimed in, calling out Nick:

"@NickEh30 F**k you, you transphobe," said @P0wer_Vizi0n on X. "Transphobia sucks + We dont want harry potter #NoHarryPotterInFortnite #NoTransphobiaInFortnite," said @goroakechiboba on X. "'Never Back Down' until it's time to call out the billion dollar company for collaborating with a transphobe," said @renegaderelic0 on X.

Some, like @conykevin, criticized the streamer's content:

"mid ahh content tailored to children anyway."
