H3 Podcast host Ethan Klein has been banned from Twitch for 30 days for rebroadcasting his viral Content Nuke video on Hasan "HasanAbi." During the 118th episode of the H3 Show, Klein revealed that his official Amazon channel, h3h3productions, had been suspended for a month for "encouraging or glorifying extreme violence."

Expressing his surprise that HasanAbi-related content resulted in a month-long ban, the 39-year-old remarked:

"Oh, my god! It got banned for encouraging or glorifying extreme violence! That's f**king... that's Hasan's content that is on your platform that he didn't get in trouble for! Holy f**k! Whoa!"

Klein then revealed the message he received from Twitch about the ban, which reads:

In response, one podcast co-host claimed that a Twitch employee manually suspended Klein's channel:

"That's a manual ban, too. For sure. Like, it's not an automatic thing."

The YouTuber added:

"I genuinely and sincerely hope that anyone that cares about this story talks about the fact that me showing the content nuke on Twitch got me banned for 30 days for encouraging or glorifying extreme violence. For showing a clip of what Hasan does regularly on Twitch, unpunished!"
