For Ramsey Khalid Ismael, better known as Johnny Somali, it appears to be a path well-trodden, albeit one paved with controversy, legal battles, and a growing chorus of disapproval. This American streamer, who gained a following through his online antics, has found himself at the center of a storm, particularly for his behavior during international travels.
