TL;DR
  • Twitch streamer Frogan faces backlash for 9/11-themed donation goal.
  • Fans ask why Frogan was not banned on the spot.
  • Debate arises over Twitch's content moderation and policies.

After streamer Frogan has been banned from Twitch for antisemitic content, another clip surfaced today that shows how questionable some of her content is.

Destiny showed the scene from one of Frogan’s older streams to his viewers just yesterday. The clip shows her proposing to bake a cake depicting the 9/11 terrorist attacks if viewers met a certain donation threshold.

Frogan is known for her provocative takes, but this time the community agrees she’s gone too far. The clip went viral in various online communities and adds the latest chapter in Twitch’s content moderation affair that brought the company under huge scrutiny.

The community point out that Frogan, previously named a “rising star” by Twitch, seems to avoid punishment. Despite numerous unacceptable actions, Twitch praised Frogan and only banned her after clips surfaced through streamers like Destiny and H3H3. Fans are rightfully asking themselves what the heck is going on with Twitch’s moderation policies.

Not even Frogan’s supporters can argue anymore that her content is meant to be satirical and thought-provoking. The clips that surfaced in the past days will make it hard to argue for remaining a part of her community.

Even if the cake had never been baked, Frogan’s 9/11 idea has left a sour taste in many mouths. A 30-day ban may not even be enough if Twitch is serious about its reputation.
