Charles Xavier White Jr. (born August 2, 1994), known online as Cr1TiKaL (also MoistCr1TiKaL, BigMoistCr1TiKaL, Mr. Moist, and penguinz0), is an American YouTuber,[1] commentator,[2][3] Twitch streamer,[4] card collector,[5] actor, voice actor,[6] and singer. He is best known for his penguinz0 YouTube channel and his role as a District 8 medic in the 2014 American dystopian science fiction adventure film The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.[7][8] He is also known for his role as Officer Greg in the upcoming American horror film The Last of the Grads.[9][10]
Personal life[edit]
Little confirmed information has been attributed to White's character and life. In recent years, he has revealed that he lives in the Tampa, Florida metropolitan area with his girlfriend Tiana Tracy. Over the years, he has opened up about his personal life, revealing his girlfriend, his dogs Cada and Tetra, and even his father in videos and streams from 2018 onward.
Career[edit]
White first joined YouTube as penguinz0 on May 7, 2007, and since then, his channel has gained over six million subscribers and over two billion views.[11] He uploaded his first video on August 5 in the same year, titled "gears of war jetpack glitch (NO Standbye or lag switch) AP", and its main topic was on the performance of a glitch in the 2006 third-person shooter video game Gears of War. Starting in 2013, White has also stepped into the acting industry, where he debuted on the American web fact series LORE in a Minute! as the narrator for one episode. From February 29 to March 1, 2020, he launched a public invitation for "Soaked Series", an online public competitive esports event with a prize pool of $10,000 that started with the 2018 crossover fighting game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.[12] White is part of rock band The Gentle Men with singer-songwriter Solstate.
Controversy towards YouTube[edit]
On September 1, 2020, White uploaded a YouTube video titled "I'm Mad",[13] where he expresses his anger at YouTube for striking and depublishing a video of him commentating over a humorous Russian dashcam road rage video consisting of four people in the costumes of SpongeBob SquarePants, Mickey Mouse, Ice Age's Scrat, and an unknown purple mascot humorously beating a motorist to claim some virality.[14] The video was struck for "violent and graphic content", although no one was injured. White explained that the video was staged and that there was no blood or gore. Fellow YouTuber Markiplier experienced the same situation when he requested a strike on his "Try Not To Laugh Challenge #2" video which also contained the same road rage clip.[15] To bring attention to the situation, White started the trend "#AnswerUsYouTube", which was a message to YouTube begging for them to take the strikes down and terminate YouTubers who truly violate the Community Guidelines and/or Terms of Service. Shortly afterward, YouTube admitted to their mistakes, removed the strikes, and republished the formerly-struck videos.[16][17]
Controversy toward Twitch[edit]
Poorly-enforced DMCA guidelines[edit]
On November 15, 2020, White uploaded a YouTube video titled "Why I'm Mad About Twitch DMCA",[18] where he expresses his anger towards Twitch for their corrupt DMCA guidelines.[19] Twitch streamers have had copyright claims by the DMCA and have had their streams muted or removed from the site. Those copyright claims were due to licensed and unlicensed in-game music and even sound effects contained in those streams. A lot of these claims have not even been made until years later. White lies the fault on Twitch due to their poor enforcement of the DMCA copyright guidelines. Soon after, Twitch apologized and started searching for a solution to their poor enforcement of their DMCA guidelines.
Unwanted bans[edit]
In mid-December 2020, Twitch announced that they will be banning the words "simp", "incel", and "virgin".[20][21]
Controversy toward the DMCA[edit]
On December 16, 2020, White and fellow YouTuber Charmx[22] gave concerns for a law by current North Carolina senator Thom Tillis involving the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998.[23][24] Other fellow YouTubers such as Optimus and Pegasus also gave concerns for this law. The day after, another fellow YouTuber SomeOrdinaryGamers revealed a gray area in the law, that content creators are not affected by this law, but rather internet pirates are affected.[25] Tillis also proved this to be true on his senator Twitter page.[26] After this theory was proven to be true, concern for this law died down. On December 21, 2020, the law was passed.
