Our sweet nephew Hasan Piker is in trouble.
And, it turns out that he got banned from the platform that shot him to fame,
Twitch.
Because he used an incredibly, incredibly offensive words.
>> My God, Anna, what was it?
>> I mean, look, the word is so offensive.
That we might need to target a franchise restaurant franchise.
That also uses the word in their name, Cracker Barrel.
>> Know that C word Barrel.
>> C word Barrel.
Apologies, I'm so sorry.
My God, I really hope I don't get canceled for this.
>> Yeah, and it's got the word country.
And to some people, find that it has, an old other C word store, C word Barrel.
>> So, let me give you guys the context here.
Twitch has decided to implement a one week suspension for Haas.
And there are other streamers who are now also experiencing the suspension.
For instance, Vash is another streamer.
He is indefinitely suspended because apparently.
He used the word cracker in his stream.
And so, this all started when Hassan noticed that two of his moderators,
or mods.
Had been suspended from Twitch.
And it was because they had used the word cracker.
That sparked a debate with others in his community.
Who disagree with his take on cracker.
He does not think that it's offensive.
And it is not the equivalent of using, let's say, the n word.
Which is an actual racial slur.
Others disagree.
And, since Twitch, like many other social media platforms.
Aren't very clear on what their terms of service happened to be.
Or more importantly, they don't apply their rules evenly among all streamers.
Turns out that house ends up getting a one week suspension.
So, he talked about this through Twitter, saying.
Yes, it is for exactly what you think it is.
Anti-White racism for using the term cracker.
And, we do have the video of where he had you used that word.
So, let's just take a quick look at that offensive video.
>> Listen to that. >> I've been called for
more times than every single one of you pasty little or bitches in my chat.
Okay, let's be real for a second.
Okay, Mr Alabama, I've been called, flowed more than you.
Why, because I'm extremely online.
Okay, so, shut the hell up.
Stop crying or this term, okay.
Recognize the person who's calling you is literally powerless.
Okay, sorry.
It's just the truth.
A person call you okay, is powerless.
They're doing it as someone who's been historically oppressed.
Blowing off steam.
Okay, you can say that.
That's infantilizing or whatever.
That's truly the reality.
>> Okay. Are we censoring the word cracker.
>> Yeah.
>> Are we really not allowed?
>> No, by the way?
I don't know if Twitter is going to ban us now.
Cuz we're using the word on air.
So, there's a real, I have no idea.
>> This is insane.
This is, all of this is insane.
>> Okay. >> Yeah, go ahead.
>> So, look, obviously Hasan and I are both from a Muslim background,
same family.
But, Hasan looks pretty White.
So, that's why he gets called that word all the time as well, right?
And so, the reason it doesn't bother him.
It doesn't bother any rational person.
Is because, there's nobody being lynched after being called cracker.
Okay, there's no one being discriminated against after.
You show me one case where black people or Latinos.
Or whoever used it, had so much power.
And they said, I don't want crackers working here.
And then they discriminated against them.
It's not a thing.
So, yes, some people use it in a derogatory fashion.
By the way, it's also a very normal word in the English language.
Are we banning Ritz crackers?
This is whereas the n word is only used in that context.
So, context matters.
By the way, if you say the n word in a news context, quoting someone else.
There's nothing wrong with that, in my opinion.
Now, Moore's have changed about that.
But I wouldn't bet anybody for that, obviously, right.
But in this case, they're pretending to be outraged.
About an insult that doesn't ever really get used in America.
>> Yeah. >> It's okay.
What, we're gonna ban people for honky.
Wow.
I get so discriminated against cuz you called me honkey.
All this is total lies.
And it's meant to appease the right wing.
Don't worry, we are cracking down on, anti-White racist.
That's absurd.
There's no such thing.
People are pretending that there's a problem when there isn't.
It's the usual right wing victimology.
I'm such a victim.
Bs, total lies
