This isn't how strikes work lol. One streamer withholding labor doesn't have leverage in this way. Twitch would either ignore it or just punish him. All this would do is silence the biggest pro-Palestinian voice on Twitch.

There's about to be only one pro-Palestine streamer on twitch at this rate. How long will that last?

Hasan isn't some normal streamer. The revenue he brings in for that company probably covers a couple staff's monthly salaries. He alone makes ~$250K/month, and because he hits the $100K threshold in a couple weeks, that means twitch is also making $250K/month off of him.

Well, a lot less if he voluntarily self-bans.

He can go stream on YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram for 30 days.
