Popular streamer Pokimane recently had the internet hooked after receiving her first ever Twitch ban since she started streaming on the purple platform in 2013. She received a two-day suspension for flouting DMCA rules by watching the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender on her livestream. However, she took her Twitch ban like a champ, saying that she was completely aware that the ban was well-deserved.The internet, however, took the opportunity to show its misogynistic side with respect to Pokimane's Twitch ban.

Her fellow streamers, Mizkif, Disguised Toast, and many others spoke out against this on Twitter.Mizkif@REALMizkifSad how Pokimane still has to deal with misogyny and harassment in 2022.

Furthermore, they added that it was saddening to see how most people were not speaking out against this blatant sexism simply because they would be labeled "simps" for supporting Pokimane.There is no denying that even in 2022, the misogyny and sexism surrounding female gamers and creators is very evident in the esports industry. However, as streamers have mentioned time and again, the only way the community can get rid of this issue is if people are vocal about calling out every incident of misogyny and sexism they see online.
