Where "sacred caste" is nothing more than "things twitch thinks will spook their advertisers", sure.
That's all this boiled down to - Twitch can be strict about their rules sometimes and so the stream needed more work to avoid violating them when it switches to backup systems.
The social mores of advertisers being overbearing for comedy content ain't really a new thing.
- symlinkk 4y agoAnd why would this particular group of people spook their advertisers?
- anonymousab 4y agoBecause advertisers are prudes about all manner of social attributes, and they don't have a consistent overlap which leads to services like Twitch simply taking an exhaustive but sometimes contradictory stance.
- ch4s3 4y agoI think it's simpler than that. No capitalist wants to offend their customers or potential customers, but in a pluralistic society you can't please everybody so you end in awkward situation even though you're just trying to sell energy drinks.

The mod team seems very slightly better in recent years, but it has a long history of double standards and incomprehensible decisions.
