OK, so people can use the definition instead. In fact it might be more useful.

I’m still not sure what it means, judging by the comments here it (murderer / terrorist etc) it does seem to be used as a slur. So yeah, using the definition instead would be useful.

Terrorist isn’t a slur. Or are you saying criticizing ISIS was biggoted?

I just told you I I’m not sure of the definition, so asking me what I think it means is pointless. Though I’m pretty sure it’s not a group you can join like ISIS, right?

They’re saying that in the same way terrorist is not always a slur but is used as a slur sometimes, Zionist can be used as a slur. I think it’s a fair take. It’s odd to specifically list Zionist as a contextual slur when you can just say no slurs.

I don’t know if I fully agree but that’s their argument as I understand it.

Edit: Idk why people are down voting me trying to explain someone’s argument.

All tech companies eventually enshitify and we would never be able to remember all of them if they all became slurs. Lol

Twitch has become garbage anyway. I’m more on Kick for streams nowadays.

Anyway wasn’t “Zionist” suppose to be a good term for these murderers? Whether they make it a banable word, screw them. Those who defend Israel, their genocidal actions and claim that the land “belongs to them, the colonizers” are Zionists.

Twitch is garbage, so you moved to a platform ran by a gambling company, where rules practically don’t exist, and the majority of the userbase is vehemently sexist and racist? That’s a level of mental gymnastics I genuinely will never understand

Even technologically Twitch has always been shit. For all the hate YT rightfully deserves, I’m kinda glad they just said “ok we do livestreaming now too” one day and it works so much better. Simply so I never have to use twitch ever again.

The issue with YouTube is, I don’t see many people on it to Stream (or I just don’t look in the right direction?). I barely to not use Twitch these days, sometimes Kick but that’s about it.
