He could at least cover all of Frogan + co's Twitch salaries for the month they are banned similar to a strike fund. (edit) It is his podcast cohost from leftovers who is running this smear campaign so he does have some responsibility here especially since he made money from leftovers working with Ethan.

I'm (delusionally) hoping that he's trying to catch KKKlein in something that is provably slanderous so he can sue him, but I'm not holding my breath. At least 3 of the people banned have a Patreon for their podcast. I'm gonna sub in the morning since I cancelled my Turbo subscription. I don't know if Denims has like a Patreon or something.

Well hopefully even if he doesn't do anything, people get together support them while they are banned, it's really just the Palestine version of the red scare, they are only being disciplined for being pro Palestinian, I don't think the higher ups at twitch are dumb enough to think they are actually antisemitic or whatever they are being accused of.

It's great to know that support for standing up Pro-Palestinian voices goes about as deep as the extent to which it doesn't personally interfere with slop consumption. Hasan could stream on multiple other platforms, y'all just have prersonal loyalty to a company that banned Arab streamers over bullshit charges, instead.

Dang, I liked that hummus, I guess my tastebuds are not refined. Which non zionist hummus do yall recommend?
