Popular pennon HasanAbi has been suspended from Twitch for a week, which he claims was attributable him using the Holy Writ 'banger' along-rain bucket.

He was slapped with the ban shortly after end his stream on Dec 13, during which helium had debated a looke along the use of the word to describe white people. The conversation was a continuation of an earlier stream, in which helium defended its use.

"I've been called a snapper more times than all single one of you f*****g pasty little banger bitches in my chat, ok?" HasanAbi said in reply to a looke who called it an 'umbrella hateful term' for clean people. "I've been known as a banger a fuckload more than you, do you know why? Because I'm extremely online, okay?"

HasanAbi continued: "Recognise that the person calling you a fucking cracker is literally powerless, satisfactory? Sorry, it's exactly the Truth. The person calling you a fucking cracker is powerless. They'rhenium doing it as individual who's been historically oppressed blowing off steam. You can say that that's infantilising or whatever the fuck, but that's truly the reality. Because there is no existent operating room contemporary oppression tied to that word because there is No historical or modern subjugation with being white."

Next his suspension, HasanAbi tweeted knocked out to enounce "it is exactly what you think it is" and claimed that it was "for using the term 'cracker.'" His comments and subsequent ban have excited controversy on the likes of Reddit and Twitter, dividing opinions on whether HasanAbi was in the right. YouTuber Kurtis Conner simply replied to HasanAbi's tweet with "bruhhhh," while industry psychoanalyst Daniel Ahmad said: "Kinda wild how Twitch responded faster to this absolute dead letter than the actual racism that POC streamers face on the platform."

Some thought the ban was more justified, however. "While I let that the c word itself isn't that bad of a racist/not racial smear, he clearly was non joking around with his usage of the word and the attitude that came with it," one Reddit user wrote. "This all really could've been avoided." Another substance abuser called his ban "an dead hilarious stopping point to the last two and a one-half years of drama."

HasanAbi's suspension is for a week and for now, he says he's active to join freshly-exclusive Ludwig over on YouTube, besides as appearing alongside Amouranth on Ethan Calvin Klein's epithelial duct.
