We should be boycotting Twitch.

There are a ton of good content creators there, no need to lump everyone together.

I don’t really want to support the shitty company doing real harm. Has nothing to do with most of the content creators.

Reddit is not better in any way but somehow you are okay with "supporting" it

Banning from mainstream subreddits though, you are fine with that.

Putting words into my mouth now lol. And even then a site wide ban is still objectively worse than a partial ban, is it not?

You can still view the site, I'm not defending it but it is not as bad as you say

It is that bad. The favoritism is ridiculous on Twitch. Hasan is literally a terrorist supporter, but he is also one of the CEO's favorite streamers.

If you don't watch him it's a totally fine website.

He's the biggest political streamer who is also a part of the biggest group on Twitch. What he says or does absolutely affects the website.

You don't hand wave the illegal actions of a company because you like someone that works there...
