only temporarily? but still, that's kinda surprising since most large corporations are FOR genocide of Palestinians
You're not supposed to say it out loud tho, that's why he got banned.
Someone probably informed the CEO that Twitch once banned a man, well MANY people got banned permanently (yes, still banned!), for quote "anti-white racism"... a thing that doesn't exist. And even if it did, a white man saying the words would have to be treated like a black man saying the n word or a gay man the f slur. Also the word was "cracker" which no one even recognizes as anything other than a comical thing to say if your goal is hurt the feelings of a white person. I'm white and would literally just laugh and wonder "huh?" internally.
So, best they could do was a temporary ban for actual racist, Hitlerian speech towards a group (Muslims broadly, though Asmongold tried to specify he meant Palestinians specifically... oh, ok, dude. That helps. That makes it fine...).
Literally explicitly justifying the genocide of an ethnic group in a way that I'm not sure even Himmler would do. Because Asmongold is too stupid to even realize fully that he was doing that. He's so Amero-brained, Burger-minded, that burning children from "place government and Israel, second government of course, told me was bad" is something to be ignored and not spoken about. If you are forced to have an opinion, or moronically proffer one unbidden, then of course you agree with what the US state department says!
That's probably the most insane part in all of this. Asmongold just essentially quoted our current president, vice president, and former-president, now currently the Republican candidate. He is literally expressing US state department policy. Not even in a gross or on the nose way. The "inferior culture" shit is said constantly by all of the demons. Maybe not all of them say it verbatim... but saying "black men are all just beasts meant to be enslaved!" doesn't make you less racist just because you left out the n word. Liberals think it does though. Well, actually, a lot of them would recognize that statement as racist probably. But if you put Arab men in there instead of black men... I don't think liberals would have a problem with the statement. They're just as xenophobic and racist as Trump in the end. He just says what they're too cowardly to say.
Big advocate for the word "honkey" to describe shitty white dudes. The benefit is that if someone tells you it's racist point out that it doesn't describe all whites, just white men, and not even all white men. A white Canadian man can't be a honkey. Nor can a white dude from Maine. Not really, though you can certainly use it for them and it's even funnier.
Anyways, let's normalize calling shitty white dudes honkey.
I know the word isn't just for white people, but "gringo" legitimately seems to deeply hurt the asses of white people. Also being called "yankee" although again not just for whites. I think I'm just proving that nothing can even offend specifically white people. The "worst" words just describe obnoxious Americans
maybe its regional but gringo isn't really offensive here in florida. just kind of means, "white person". i guess context matters but its not usually meant to be a slur outright on its own.
now if your mexican friend gets pissed and calls a white guy a "gabacho" then, yeah. he's putting venom on it
People who live near Spanish speakers and actually bother to ask about it won't be offended. But I'm talking about like random white people who do unironically think it's a slur. From my understanding talking with a Mexican coworker years ago, he told me it's basically neutral. It can be said in a good way, bad way, without meaning, but white people who don't know anything and have an inherent bias against Spanish speakers will interpret it as negative.
