The 'Democrats Answers to Joe Rogan' loses a lucrative appearance after the viral call to “kill” the top republican

The popular left-wing political commentator Hasan Piker was temporarily banished by Twitch-the Amazonas streaming platform on which he built his massive followers.

His suspension came just a few days after a virus clip appeared, in which Piker said that the Republicans would kill Florida Rick Scott's senator in Florida if they really took care of government fraud.

“If you take care of Medicare fraud or Medicaid fraud, would you kill Rick Scott, okay?” Piker said to his 2.8 million followers during a heated livestream on February 28th.

Piker, who was described as “Democrats of Joe Rogan”, was excluded by the platform on Monday, whereby the visitors of his page were welcomed with a message, the said that the account was temporarily not available due to a violation of Twitch's community guidelines or terms of use.

Twitch did not provide an official reason for the ban, but the Piker's comments were regarded by many conservatives as an open call to violence.

The streamer later went to YouTube, where his channel stays active with 1.5 million subscribers to remedy the controversy directly.

“What's going on, everyone? If you see this, it means that I was probably banned, «Piker told the viewers in a defiant tone.

'That's right – the abort of culture has finally come for me. Oh my god, it's over. It's over. Warriors' freedom of speech – where are you now? You took me out, ladies and gentlemen. It's over. I'm done. '

Piker vehemently removed his defense and denied that his comments were meant as a literally call for action.

“Well, that seems to say a wild thing. “Oh my god, does this person demand the death of a US senator?” Of course not. I didn't demand the murder of a US senator, ”he insisted.

Instead, he claimed that his words were a hyperbolic expression of frustration about what he sees as a republican hypocrisy when dealing with government fraud.

The focus of Piker's comments was a scorching criticism of Senator of Florida and former Republican governor of Florida, Rick Scott, who headed the massive fraud program in Columbia/HCA in the 1990s.

The company, which Scott has founded, was punished with a fine of $ 1.7 billion for the Betfall of Medicare and Medicaid.

Scott has repeatedly tried to distance himself from the scandal and claimed last year that, like former President Donald Trump, he was a victim of a “political persecution”.

'I saw that. It happened to me, ”said Scott and defended himself. “I fought Hillarycare and guess what happened when I fought Hillarycare? Justice complied with me and attacked me and my society. '

But Piker didn't buy it.

“The reason why I say that if they take care of Medicare or Medicaid fraud, they would kill Rick Scott -and not make him an outstanding part of the Republican Party -because he is still known to commit the largest Medicare fraud in his YouTube video and clarify his controversial concerns.

The counter-reaction against Pike was quickly with conservative commentators and right-wing influencers, who led the indictment for piker removal of Twitch.

The influential representation of Tiktok, which often aims at the left public figures, emphasized the clip in a tweet that quickly gained traction.

“Hassan Piker only demanded violence against a seated US senator,” read the post office and marked the FBI. The tweet set up 742,000 likes in a few days and exhibited the stage for a digital takedown.

But it was not just conservative activists who asked for action. Even colleague Twitch Streamer and Gaming commentator Asmongold, who has become one of the greatest political voices on the platform, suggested that Piker's comments had violated Twitch's guidelines.

“How is that not against the TOS?” Asmongold asked during a YouTube livestream. 'It is an open call to violence. I challenge everyone who thinks that it is not an open call to violence to say that about Donald Trump and then tell me whether the secret service appears in your house or not. '

Asmongold, which also has almost 7 million followers in Twitch and YouTube, often reacts to Trump's events every day and collects millions of views per video.

In his YouTube recruitment, Piker admitted that his choice of words had been ruthless but had been doubled on his wider point.

“I shouldn't have used the term” kill “. I should have either “death penalty” or just “punishment” in general, “he admitted.

“But again, I let you down. I used a hyperbolic language and this hyperbolic language has brought me problems. '

However, Piker insisted that the true scandal was not his wording – it was the decision of the Republican Party to hug Rick Scott, even though he had cheated on the federal government.

In this case, Rick Scott was not expected. Justice is rarely served against rich people who take advantage of others – for rich people who cheat the federal government, ”he said.

Piker's Twitch Suspension was lifted after a day and he returned to the platform on Tuesday afternoon.

'I'm back! Get in now! 'He tweeted before he went back to Twitch.

'Uninable. I am back and now apolitical! 'He wrote.
