Okay, I'm gonna try and wrap this up. It wasn't a serious accident, it wasn't spreading hate speech, but I feel Twitch is in a position where they have to do something to appease people. The TOS is exercised when they feel it needs to be or more importantly when they want it to be, its a choice. The same goes for laws, not everybody is punished the same.

Well the US has the most diverse population as far as I'm aware. I really don't need people from less diverse countries telling me we should more diverse. Frankly, I'm all for merit based immigration regardless of color.

No, you're lecturing me and making assumptions. You're upset the n-word is used in a neutral manner by black people and other groups, you have the impression I'm okay with this and you say I promote this. In reality, I'm saying this is the way it is and I'd be fine with black people no longer saying the n-word. However, its not uncommon to see black people use the n-word, they trivialize it and I don't really care. I don't feel it causes any real harm.

Uh huh, my concern is physical harm. You don't believe in freedom of speech so its hard for you to accept this idea.

Except Twitch have told people for a while what the TOS are and the consequences for breaking them they don't have to appease anyone because by now the rules have long been set hence why he was instantly banned when it happened with out anyone calling for it.

Yet less diverse countries handle the situations much better so yes you can still take notes on things.

No you're being educated on the truth of the matter it's you who is upset hence why you started labeling people who don't share your stance I simply shot down your notion that black people are perfectly fine with the word they aren't the fact you think it causes no harm says it all.

I believe in freedom of speech but unlike you I understand it doesn't equate to freedom of consequence something you're struggling to grasp, harm comes in many forms you ignoring all other types of harm doesn't make them any less serious.
