In recent, JiDion received a 14-day ban from Twitch following his interaction with fellow streamer Pokimane. Some in the community felt that Jidion was harassing her, others argued that he was simply trolling her. However, Today, Twitch took a firm stance on the matter. The Amazon-owned streaming platform issued an indefinite suspension to JiDion, changing what was once a 2-week ban to a lifetime. Many in the community feel that this new punishment is too harsh. JiDion himself is speaking out on the matter as well. If you need a refresher on the Pokimane and JiDion situation, click here.

The Twitch community is split down the middle with their feelings on this recent punishment. Some argue that his ban was justified due to alleged ‘misogyny’. While others argue that his ban is excessive for someone who was just ‘trolling’. However, the majority of the community is taking a middle ground stance. As the majority believe he deserves to be banned, just not indefinitely.
Aye gangy @Twitch We had a very stern talk with him bout how what he did was wrong and how he needa accept that. Let him sit with that original 14 day please #twitchfreejidion
