Why did Sneako get permanently banned on Twitch?

Controversial internet personality Nicolas "Nico," better known as "Sneako," has been permanently banned from Twitch. For those unaware, Sneako's official Twitch channel was reinstated on June 11, 2024, and the situation left numerous netizens shocked. Things have now taken a turn for the New Yorker, as the Amazon-owned platform has permanently suspended his channel once again.

This comes on the same day Morgan "Frogan's" channel was banned for 30 days after the Twitch streamer went viral for her views on the US military and the tier list she created at TwitchCon 2024.

On October 22, 2024, X user @Sneak0o reported that the former Rumble streamer's Twitch channel was indefinitely suspended because of "extreme hateful conduct."

Here's what was written in the official Twitch email:

"Reason: Extreme hateful conduct. Focusing your conduct on promoting, encouraging, or facilitating the discrimination or denigration of others based on their protected characteristics. Examples of violative conduct include, but are not limited to: Devoting a majority of your stream towards promoting racism or xenophobia. Going on a prolonged rant about how a specific group of people are a danger to society because of their religion. Participating in or organizing a hate group's malicious activities."

Sneako slams Twitch for temporarily banning Asmongold for saying that "Muslims are an inferior people"

During a Kick stream earlier today (October 22, 2024), Sneako called Twitch out for temporarily banning Zack "Asmongold." For context, Asmongold's alternate channel, Zackrawrr, was suspended for 14 days after his comments about Palestine and Gaza went viral on social media.

Expressing his discontent with the Amazon-owned platform's decision not to ban Hasan "HasanAbi" and temporarily suspend Asmongold's channel, the 26-year-old remarked:

"HasanAbi can say, 'America deserves 9/11,' and he's getting a round of applause on his birthday by the Twitch staff. Asmongold said that Muslims are an inferior people, and he got 14 days on his second channel. They packed up Asmongold's second alt Twitch for 14 days, a little slap on the wrist, 'Bad boy!'"

Sneako then seemed to mock Asmongold:

"Rat scouring around his room. Like, Cheeto stains all over his shirt, 'Muslims are... inferior.' A rat rolls by his nipples, 'These gross people deserve genocide.' A bat crawls down from his ceiling."

During the same broadcast, Sneako expressed his desire to "crash out" at the livestreaming industry. However, he did not do so, claiming he wanted to be "diplomatic" about the situation.
