# HasanAbi calls for permanent ban on streamer Asmongold 2026-08-12T08:46:39+00:00 | Technology | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Streamer HasanAbi has demanded that Twitch and YouTube permanently ban fellow creator Asmongold, reigniting debate over platform moderation. During a livestream on August 9, HasanAbi criticised Asmongold's defence of remarks that earned him a two-week Twitch suspension, in which he described immigrants with dehumanising language and advocated shooting people including children. HasanAbi argued that Asmongold is testing the platforms' boundaries, and that his comments would have resulted in a permanent ban years ago. He also suggested that Twitch is scared to act against big creators for fear of backlash from right-wing audiences. Asmongold had not responded to the latest criticism at the time of the report. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Asmongold, content moderation, HasanAbi, hate speech, Twitch, YouTube Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/hasanabi-calls-for-permanent-ban-on-streamer-asmongold/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
