    This ban is such horseshit since he didn’t suggest anyone should kill Rick Scott, or generally advocate for the killing of Rick Scott. But apparently just alluding to the killing of Rick Scott is problematic on twitch. Generally, I think there should be more discussion about this whole “kill Rick Scott“ issue, although I don’t think anyone should actually kill Rick Scott.

          We’re just talking about people who are talking about killing Rick Scott.

            Given that my comment explicitly decrying anyone thinking about killing Rick Scott was modded, I can only assume that the mods are advocating for killing Rick Scott. It’s a madhouse.

              It’s so crazy that even the mods are saying it now. What’s next, the admins??
