Controversial streamer Dalton “ChudTheBuilder” went viral in April 2026 after a series of viral clips of him using derogatory slurs against African-Americans during his IRL streams in Nashville surfaced. Since these clips went viral, the streamer was banned on Kick, and he has since taken his broadcasts to Pump.fun. He’s also active on X, where he interacts with his community of over 215,000 followers.
Speaking of X interactions, a series of exchanges involving ChudTheBuilder‘s body transformation is making its rounds on the platform.
For example, on February 2, 2026, user @luisomor shared a post touching on how hormones dictate where calories are placed:
“The ‘calories in vs. calories out’ braindead gymbros forget that hormones dictate where those calories go. 2,000 calories of steak and 2,000 calories of pasta are NOT the same.”
In response, Chud shared a before-and-after image of his body transformation, with a caption that read:
“Unless you’ve improved your physique naturally more than I have, your opinion is irrelevant. Eat more steak and less grains. It’s this simple.”
Earlier, in late December 2025, the streamer responded to a user comment claiming he was “a fatty less than a year ago,” saying that his transformation took seven years to accomplish:
“I lost the weight when I was 21. I’m 28. It’s been 7 years. I mog all of you now and that’s why you anon uglies hate me.”
ChudTheBuilder arrested on misdemeanor charges
On May 10, 2026, Nashville police arrested ChudTheBuilder while he was IRL streaming. As the arrest happened, the streamer seemed confused, asking:
“What did I do?”
Later, details revealed that he was nicked for three misdemeanors, one for the “theft of services” while at a restaurant, another for disorderly conduct, and finally for resisting arrest. Chud explained the situation in an X reply, suggesting that he left the food establishment without paying the bill:
“I partially ate the two appetizers i ordered. Never got my meal, and couldnt enjoy or finish the food i did get. He said on camera ‘ok just go then.’ Hes mad i called him short and then told the guests who stopped me for a picture on my way out not to eat there anymore.”
In other news, ChudTheBuilder broke his silence after getting arrested, saying an “FBI and Domestic terrorist detective” interviewed him.
