xQc defends himself following Greekgodx's recent Twitch ban
A clip from Greekgodx’s July 28, 2022, broadcast went viral on multiple social media platforms in which he can be seen being offensive.
As the clip gained traction on Twitter, the streamer responded with an explanation in a tweet of his. xQc took offense to the tweet and instantly called out Greek but was soon slapped with numerous accusations calling him a racist.
One Twitter user urged Twitch to take similar action against xQc for mocking the Asian language during streaming. Naturally, xQc wasn't going to sit back and take all the heat.
Replying to all the assertions, the Canadian content creator highlighted the fact that people learn, grow, and improve with time and that they should also move on with their lives.
Notably, this isn't the first time the popular personality has come under fire for his racist remarks. Back in 2018, xQc was suspended from the Overwatch League for using an in-game emote in a “racially disparaging manner.”
Clearly, the beef between prominent streamers is far from over. Suffice to say, both personalities have a tremendous amount of fans on their streaming channels, so it's no surprise that their clash drew a lot of attention. All in all, it seems like the controversy regarding Greek's most recent Twitch ban will likely continue to be the talk of the community.
