The Doll Incident took place in the early hours of June 29, 2025, during a live stream on Parti. During the stream, Josh engaged in highly disturbing behavior involving a children's doll, including spanking it, undressing it, and ultimately stomping on it. The incident prompted widespread outrage within the World of T-Shirts community due to the unsettling nature of his actions.[1] Some have stated that it was much more disturbing than the Fish Stomping Incident, which occurred just four years prior.

Background
Josh was in Los Angeles with Tony Bame and Alyssa Manzella while on his "sober week".
The Incident
Josh and Tony started streaming around midnight on Parti, watching TV together. Towards the end of the stream, Tony picked up a creepy-looking doll resembling a toddler that Alyssa keeps in her room. They held and played with the doll for a few minutes before passing it to Josh. Josh began braiding the doll’s hair for a few minutes before biting its hand, banging its head against the cushions, and spanking it while smiling maniacally. He then removed its shoes and started licking its feet, followed by lifting the doll and licking around its genital area. Tony questioned his actions, telling him he was going too far.
Despite this, Josh continued by stripping the doll, taking off its dress, spanking it again, braiding its hair some more, and eventually dismembering it, using its own arm to spank it. Finally, he placed the doll on the ground and stomped on it until it was broken into pieces and decapitated. He then sat down, laughed, and remarked that it was just a doll and an inanimate object. The incident concluded with Alyssa displaying the destroyed doll’s parts before taking them away.
Aftermath and Backlash
This incident has sparked massive speculation amongst the community on whether Josh’s actions suggest that he is a closet pedophile. It is worth noting that Josh did this on his own free will, with no one suggesting or encouraging him to do what he did. It is unknown whether Josh was fully aware at the time that the doll resembled a child and how simulating violence and sexual acts on it could be perceived to viewers. A counter argument can be made that Josh didn't understand the severity and depravity of his actions, possibly due to his mental deficits and lack of social awareness because of his autism. Nevertheless, his behaviour during this incident has sparked great concern amongst the community that he may seriously harbour thoughts to commit acts of sexual activity and violence against children. Many have shifted their views on Joshua, as like with the Fish Stomping Incident, believing he may genuinely be a psychopath. Combined with his previous sexual misconduct, including non-consensually motorboating and inappropriately touching Gianna Jean in late 2024, among other various incidents too, suggests that both Joshua may not be asexual afterall, and that he doesn't have adequate control over his sexual urges.
It's probably wise to assume that without consequences for Josh's actions, he will continue his disturbing behaviour into the future.
