They should filter all political chat. Has nothing to do with the game

Twitch has become extremely left wing over the past few years, was inevitable after Amazon bought them.

Blue haired gender confused freaks basically run the whole service.

This pains me as Amazon Web Services is the reason that I have my current role. They've thrived in a capitalist manner and are MAGA without even knowing it.

I remember twitch pre Amazon.

Was so much more fun, way less rules, way less corporate bullshite, just more authentic.

There are still good streamers but the whole site's culture has dramatically changed very quickly.

It's similar to what happened to youtube, just on an even more accelerated pace.

I mean look at the streamers, they all lean pretty left.

But your post is still fairly dramatic. Twitch is still great content and the leader of legit memes

They should, but they don't. Which is the issue.

And that's why the sites culture has changed.

Making right wing statements gets you banned. Making left wing statements gets you on the front page.

Twitch is 100% all in on every SJW cause, whatever alphabet person/minority group celebration month it is, they're all over it.

Left wingers demand complete cultural control and Twitch has become no different.

Not sure what's worse:

Places censoring your chat

Being enough of a douche to scream political messages during a game.



I legit DGAF if you're liberal or conservative, I'm not interested in the political views of random strangers when I'm trying to enjoy a game.

Also, in Among Us, I would agree they should ban as much political content as possible because muting/silencing a player isn't really an option. The game is predicated on being able to communicate. This isn't COD or Overwatch, where if you start screaming "MAGA!" or "Biden rules!" I can just mute you and go about the game.

I have very little sympathy for people who waste other people's time doing stupid shite like that and then get censored or kicked.

There's a PoliBoard if you want to scream your political opinion into the Ether. Or Facebook, where maybe your friends will give two shits about your opinion. I seriously doubt DragonPoonSlayer69 is going to provide in-depth political conversation and debate.

Not that it stops people from bitching about politics in every side board on this site either.

Twitch is a company determined to make money above all else.

If a guy cleaning his gun with a Trump hat on and playing Sweet Home Alabama in the background gets a million viewers a night, they're not going to give a shite about his politics.
