Kick streamer Fousey, real name Yousef Erakat, has blasted Twitch streamer Asmongold for the latter's comments about the ongoing conflict in Gaza. For context, a clip of Asmongold talking about the strife in the Middle East went viral on October 14 and has generated a lot of backlash.
In the clip, the Twitch streamer claims he does not care about the ongoing conflict and then proceeds to state that people in the region come from an "inferior culture" that is "antithetical to Western Values."

Fousey, who is of Palestinian descent, took great offense to Asmongold's characterization of the population of Gaza and in a post on X blasted the streamer, calling him "inb**d." The Kick streamer cussed him and his supporters out, writing:
"F**K THIS IN**D RE*ARD AND ANYONE WHO STANDS WITH HIM"
Fousey claims Asmongold should be punished for his statements about the conflict in the Middle East
As mentioned, Asmongold's comments were met with mixed reactions, with a sizeable portion of the online community calling his statement about "inferior culture" to be a ban-worthy offense. Many, including Fousey, have called on Twitch to take action.
After cussing out the Twitch streamer, Fousey went on to claim that Asmongold supports genocide and should be "punished", possibly referring to a ban or suspension from the Amazon-owned streaming platform. The Kick streamer also insinuated that Asmongold will not be penalized due to his status as a popular content creator:
"YOU SUPPORT GENOCIDE, NO WAY AROUND THAT ARGUMENT. IMO THE TAKE IS SO BAD HE SHOULD BE PUNISHED. BUT HE WANT (sic) BECAUSE HE’S A PART OF PROTECTED FAIRIES OF THE INTERNET. FREE PALESTINE TILL IT’S BACKWARDS. BI*CH."
Fousey's post has also garnered a lot of traction on social media, with followers throwing their support behind the Kick streamer's words. Furthermore, Andrew Tate has also seemingly supported him in a two-word reply on X.
As of this moment, Asmongold's Twitch account remains unsuspended, including his alternate channel zackrawrr where he made controversial comments about the conflict in Gaza.
