He was on his uninformed Ukraine take yet again. I mentioned that Russia was protecting the people of the Donbass from Azov aggression and I was instantly banned. So much for promoting a materialist understanding of the conflict. It's pretty unfortunate that his audience is being spoon fed the same pro west narrative that the mainstream media is pushing.

Another thing is that large Twitch chats are mostly there for "hype" and donations. Actual engagement with them is very rare. Trigger finger mods ban anything that remotely derails the vibe (imperialist apologia).

I got banned once from a medium sized League streamer because I typed "you should take a day off" when he said how he was stressed and tired. It helped me reconsider the reality my relationship as a non-paying viewer with streamers and I have not watched a second any Twitch stream since then. This was a couple of years ago.
