“Hope he gets the help he needs”: Fans react as Greekgodx gets banned on Twitch for alleged racist remark

The contentious streamer Greekgodx has once again been banned from Twitch after a clip of him making offensive sounds went viral on social media. Fans and the streaming community, in general, took to Reddit and Twitter to share their opinions on the ban.

Although the exact reason for the ban is still unclear, it does seem like it was because of a clip from today's IRL stream where he apparently mocked Asian languages by making incoherent sounds mimicking far-eastern speech patterns. The streamer, however, has maintained that the sounds were not racist in any way and that it was just a string of random noise just for the sake of it.

He also posted a video, appearing unfazed by the ban:

Twitter divided after Greekgodx gets second ban in a month for charges of racism

The British content creator has been the subject of a lot of controversy over the last few weeks. He previously got in trouble for his misogynistic opinions on women's roles in relationships and was banned on June 28. However, he maintains that the three-day ban was due to him twerking on stream.

Since then, Greekgodx has been on various streams and has turned heads with his outlandish takes and conspiracy theories about moon landings and the like. He even told xQc that he didn't need to consult doctors after losing weight. In a recent Adin Ross stream, he even put a live cicada in his mouth just for the fun of it.

The clip initially gained traction on the LivestreamFail subreddit. In a tweet, Greekgodx denied any allegations of racism made against him, labeling those who were spreading the lies as "sad" people who just stir up drama for the sake of it:

"These guys on Reddit are very sad. I pray for you. Get a job get a life get girlfriend go Jim. Why do you spend your days wasting away making up fake BS to distract yourself from the real problem."

After Twitter began accusing him of anti-Asian racism, he alleged that the family wasn't Asian but Greek. He also said that he was raised by Asians and would never be prejudiced against them:

"This is funny because that wasn’t an Asian family. That was a geek family speaking Greek. And to assume that they are Asian is very wrong in itself. My family members are Asian why would I be racist to the people who brought me up."

The back and forth on Twitter created a lot of drama as people both for and against the ban expressed their feelings. Many felt that the "random words" excuse did not hold up and made fun of him for it:

Today's ban has divided Twitter, with some supporting the ban and others defending Greekgodx's actions. While many who watched the clip agreed that the insinuation of the sounds he made appeared to be mocking Asian languages, others pointed out that there was no Asian with him to be offended and claimed that no harm had been done.
