How is twitch being destroyed by sjw crap? I’m not disagreeing or disputing, just curious.
Stuff like, saying the world faggot, or saying someone is wrong for thinking there are more than two genders gets streamers banned from twitch.
Among other things.

Aren't those channel bans and up to the streamer's auto-mod / moderators?
Also most sensible streamers will keep controversial topics out of chat.
Also, chat on mixer seems more sanitized from my experiences.. moderation maybe heavier, or just due to less viewers... or both

You are confused. That's twitch banning streamers not streamers banning viewers.
You can't say or express any views on your channel that go against twitch TOS or your channel is banned.
Saying the word faggot on your channel is a ban, and if someone else says it on your stream that's also a ban.
Saying that you feel that people who say that there are more than two genders are wrong, on your channel, gets your channel banned.
In other words twitch tells you what you can and can not say on your own channel and its getting worse.

oh , you didn't clarify so I assumed you meant as viewers.

Yea I don't agree with streamers getting banned using your examples.

That has less to do with SJW and more to do with advertiser standards. The more “controversial”, the more skittish advertisers become.

I haven't been to mixer so I decided to take a look. I used bing search and the first 3 results were for mixers at lowes and home depot lol. Found that funny coming from the MS search.

This is something that I posted in screenshots. But it deserves reposting.

Oh yes, saying there are only 2 genders is certainly controversial for advertisers.

I watched Dr Disrespect the night Shroud left for Mixer and he’s exactly like described. A WWE character. The entire persona is an act right? It’s like people pick and choose what’s real for him.

I imagine the bigger Mixer gets the more like Twitch it’ll become. I swear some of you get so rustled by “sjw” you’ll attribute it to anything and everything.

You cannot believe anything he says.

Although this is truth, you cannot believe any of these ass clowns, I could see twitch finally busting out some bank to keep some of the top streamers right where they are. even with a simple contract restructuring allowing him to keep more of his sub percentage. Money talks bullshit walks. This is nothing more than a job for these dudes now. I cant see them being loyal just for the sake of being loyal.

That has less to do with SJW and more to do with advertiser standards. The more “controversial”, the more skittish advertisers become.

As to the whole advertisers being skittish, I feel like this is a big cop out explanation to whats going on on twitch. You have whores showing their pussy and tits "on accident" to kids watching or others blatantly slinging out the N word with no hesitation and not even a slap on the wrist, yet some dude you dont even know or have any control over yells out faggot in your chat you are responsible for and get the suspension or ban? Or like the below guy beating you in a game of PvP and you report him and he gets suspended without even any investigation???
BTW this is gaming culture, the term faggot has been thrown around since the inception of the first shooter. Among other even worse terms to call any competitor. and there will always be jackasses that you beat in a game that are too salty and click report button over and over.

This is also peoples livlehood they are fucking with. Never mind the Docs, the shrouds or any of them, think about the 500 view gamers grinding day in and day out to bust a buck. THOSE are the people getting hit with the bans and suspensions.

Find me a main stream advertiser that would be ok with that. Racist/homophobic slurs get pro athletes dumped by sponsors/etc all the time.

do you think any streamer on mixer would be able to say the word faggot or make fun of trannies? C'mon. They will get banned too. The only thing right now is that the internet Gestapo isn't watching mixer streams, if it gets popular enough they will report on anyone who goes against groupthink and Mixer/Microsoft will ban them too.

Twitch is just extremely hypocritical about it, with admins favoring thotts who give them nudes and letting them get away with shit while sperglords who say non PC stuff get perma banned because no one gives a shit about them. If they moved to mixer and said the exact same things they will also get perma banned if anyone notices and makes a big enough stink. Mixer admins for now I think are all actual microsoft employees so no one has tried to buy them off with nudes or whatever, but if the service grows the staff will get more retarded and you'll see the same corruption in mixer staff as you see in twitch staff now.

Mixer is not libertarian utopia. You're just seeing the difference between a small scale operation and a massive operation, if they equalize the problems will also equalize.

Damn straight they are hypocritical about it. You see it all the time, many of those were posted here. if youre gonna have some virtue bullshit policies, lets make sure we follow them 100%, instead of just the popular folks getting away with it while the mom and pop streamers get ban hammered for it.

This only applies to white males (thots get a pass for any transgression). If you're black you can say American Inventor or pretty much any other racial slur that you want, as much as you want, without issue.

Also how bout the music you play. some streamers play some rap shit that would blow your mind. talking about rape, Wakandan this Wakandan that I mean, I wonder how advertisers think about this?

Yah, all you have to do is go and watch one of Pokimane's streams. You hear the N being tossed about back and forth in just about every one of those songs.

Meh.

"N word". Jesus, you guys can't even bring yourselves to type it out on a forum that automatically converts it.

It's called tact, and it's a lost art in today's world of super sensitive people feeding overly aggressive people and vice-versa.
