The presenter on the YouTube channel of Xbox Brazil, Isadora Basile, announced, this Friday (16/10), that she was fired by Microsoft. According to her, the shutdown was to prevent her from being exposed to attacks that she had been suffering.

Isadora has been in office since September. However, in these months, the presenter reported having suffered several attacks and harassments by the viewers of the channel, including threats of rape and deaths.

“In the beginning of September, when I announced my new job, I suffered attacks of all kinds, from people saying that I didn’t play x or ye games so I wasn’t ‘worthy’ of my job, even threats of rape, death and trials for to expose more tense situations. Due to all these attacks, Microsoft found it the best option to disconnect me from the position of presenter, so that I am no longer exposed to situations like these that have happened, “he wrote in a post.

On Twitter, Xbox Brazil spoke and said that the reason for the shutdown was changes in the content strategy.

In social networks, the dismissal of the presenter generated revolt. Many netizens consider the attitude of the macho brand. “The logic is: if a woman suffers from sexism, she has to be fired, after all without a woman, without sexism,” wrote a Twitter user.
