Twitch has become a breeding ground for antisemitism and extremist rhetoric. Streamers openly promote hate against Jewish communities, and disturbingly, Twitch’s leadership, Dan Clancy, has tolerated this by promoting these antisemitic creators. Ad revenue is falling drastically, big creators are being paid much less for ad runtime because the CEO, Dan Clancy, is making Twitch an un-advertisable hellscape, and it's only going to get worse. There are over 15,000 signatures for a petition to remove him and growing every single day. Normal people do not support this rhetoric. I will never give a cent of my money to Twitch/Amazon until the domestic terror problem is fixed on your platform. We all remember when Dan Clancy's poster boy Hasan incited to kill Rick Scott.
ADVERTISERS ARE FLEEING IN DROVES. DROP DAN CLANCY.

Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.
We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself. Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.
We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.
That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice…

Stop the increase of antisemitic hate, and attacks on the platform. It's just really sickening to see and it's driving advertisers away in droves. Twitch ad payouts are the lowest they have ever been, even huge streamers are not seeing much in terms of ad revenue payout.
The CEO Dan Clancy, openly allows the double standards in place. Certain streamers can openly glaze, stream, and talk up terrorist propaganda, however other streamers are banned for things tiny in comparison. Honestly, at this point, Twitch, the CEO seem complicit together at this point, and for the average person like me, it's severely off putting.
I'm a normal person, a normal guy, I never would have even found this "user voice," idea threads if I hadn't had such an extreme distaste for what the platform I used to love has become. From a place of community and love to a violent breeding ground of hatred. Now people in the real world are being killed because of the rhetoric, and I sit here and wonder; will it ever change?
Stop before it's too late, and almost all your advertisers have left you. Please correct course. Remove CEO Dan Clancy.
