Yesterday, Twitch suspended an account that belonged to streamer and famous YouTuber Zack “Asmongold” Hoyt after he made racist comments about the death of Palestinians in Gaza. Now, the YouTuber has responded to the temporary ban with a surprisingly clear-eyed assessment of the controversy and what led up to it.

“I don’t really want to mince words or, ‘oh I wasn’t justifying or promoting [the genocide],’” He said during a new 20-minute long video on the subject. “I said something about it that was disgusting.”

      Well there’s that part about the thousand’s of children they slaughtered, but other than that little details it’s really not THAT controversial.

        Don’t forget the other details about war crimes against Palestinians and Palestinians living in towns caged in, and getting assaulted day in and day out through the fence by Israelites. And the constant harassment online. And Israelites taking over their homes forcefully. And them having no place to live.

        I guess sometimes you can get lost in the details. My bad.
