Hasan Piker, the controversial leftwing gamer and influencer, has been suspended by Twitch for ostensibly "critically" discussing the manifesto of the terrorist who murdered two Israeli embassy workers this week.

According to an X post by Grummz, the pseudonym for a veteran game developer, "Hasan has received a global suspension for an unspecified duration. Advertisers are already rumored to be pulling out of Twitch. Twitch has to be under intense pressure now."

Here is a screenshot of his official statement:

Multiple commenters on the post said that this decision was likely temporary, despite Hasan's reputation and the flak he is receiving.
