After calls for Twitch to address antisemitism on the platform, the site’s hateful conduct policy now includes “Zionist” as a potential slur. Twitch specifies this is conditional: you’re allowed to discuss the political movement of that name, but not “attack or demean another individual or group of people on the basis of their background or religious belief.”

It’s great how people are gathering and having discussions under heavily censored platforms owned by billionaries, just amazing.

And on top of that, pretty much all the platforms, even all the way down to this one, are censored in at least one increasingly-relevant way.

At least we can still talk about butt stuff in peace.
