Backlash started to mount against Steve Aoki after an old, out-of-context clip of him throwing a cake at a guy in a wheelchair resurfaced on Twitter ... but with all the facts laid out, it's much ado about nothing.

The Twitter account that posted this -- which literally just aggregates and publishes crazy clips -- described this incident in rather ominous terms ... and without any context whatsoever. They wrote,"Steve Aoki threw a cake 80 ft and hit boy in wheel chair."

First, this is an ancient video from 2013, when SA performed at the Veld Music Festival in Toronto. And more importantly, this is not a"boy" -- AKA, a child -- but rather ... a grown-ass man. He also wasn't the victim of anything, as Twitter is apparently quick to assume now. There were some who saw this -- again, out of context -- and assumed what the Fight Club account floated was accurate ... and that he'd intentionally aimed to hurt this disabled person. That, or they presumed Steve didn't realize the damage he may have inflicted.

Fortunately, that's not even close to the truth at all ... if you watch the full clip, which Steve posted himself back then, you'll see the man asked to be hoisted up and wanted the cake. Are they trying to cancel Steve Aoki for throwing cake at a kid in a wheelchair during his set? Do y’all know who Steve Aoki is and he does that right? Y’all know that’s his thing, right? That kid is probably HAPPY AS HELL he got hit by the cake

That’s stupid. His aim couldn’t have been that precise.

O, look, it’s me!

I AM OUTRAGED!!! Your passing this along worked!!!

A gossip site accusing a social media site of spreading gossip is pretty on-brand for 2022.

LMAO

He mad it to his concert lucky him!

do minority groups wanna be treated like normal people or what? seems on one hand they wanna be the precious untouchable victims. then on the otherhand want inclusivity as normal people. nobody is above being caked in the face.

Yet you took the time to put out this article.

Picking on people with disabilities, real classy

Probably THE greatest cake toss of all time.

That's worse than Watergate!

At least he wasntdrunkyelling at a homeless guy in a wheelchair,goes on20mins, blackout yelling,sober up&walkaway,then wheelchair guy gets some balls?,finds other drunk guys to try&start some shit,but you seriously don't remember so they buy it&walk away,&Uflip off wheelchair guy

Let's talk bout the accuracy he's got to monkey toss a cake like that and hit target. 😂

like he can see everything from a stage. there’s thousands of people in front of him. people are so lame they have to dig up old shit, trying to cancel everyone. get a life

People always wanna hate on somebody. Steve Aoki ain’t done nothing to nobody

This is what the internet can be come so quickly. People see something, assume something else, get pissed, retweet the assumption and the cancelling starts. All of this happens in minutes. Thousands of people all now outraged over a wrong/fake assumption.

Overreaction of any kind is boring.

Person chanting “cake me!” Got caked. nbd
