He is younger than me 6 years old but he looks like older than me 6 years old. Maybe StarCraft ruined him more than me so much!

In other news Gypsy allegedly BEAT..... a KOREAN...in a game of SC BW and he broke his computer.

Understandably, in general people grievously underestimate the toll streaming takes (though real jobs like delivery are harder). Panhandling on stream for maced up milfs is sad, but after cucking he then mauls kr ladder and to say otherwise is an insidious lie and windup.

Gypsy is going back to Korea in a few weeks and I cannot keep this on my chest any longer.
I started watching Gypsy93 and quickly became a more respected member of his community with a VIP badge (or so I thought). Then, without warning he began calling me the "R" word and hurled many other harmful incantations. I tried to defend myself and he simply used his power to ban me.
I made formal complaint that night and thankfully twitch took immediate (although temporary) action.
Our community has always been an accepting one. This is the first time I'm facing real and persistent discrimination from players with a platform. We with AuDHD are discriminated against constantly in the real world and I don’t think it’s safe for “people” such as this to be able to discriminate against minorities. The whole purpose of our shared online space is so that we can be inclusive and enjoy this hobby together.
I can't see Korea accepting him with these racist, sexist and horrible attitudes towards minorities and we shouldn't either. This is a petition to our sc media class (looking at you Artosis) to stop platforming such toxic and vile players.

Sorry to hear that, is this really your first post or are you posting on an ALT account? Because if you are posting on an ALT account, it really makes this a little more difficult to take seriously.

Sounds pretty tame compared to what it was like online in the 90's and early 2000's.

this thread is... uhh interesting with crashouts and culture shock lol.
He mentioned not playing much after being back to Canada partly because of the latency so best of luck to him in 2 weeks.

Yeah I agree, best of luck to Gypsy going back to Korea, I think he can do well honestly if he stays level headed, focused and trains properly.

Not defending his words or actions by any means but realistically speaking, I doubt that most people care enough to start a social justice campaign over someone using "retard" while playing a 30-year-old game to 20 viewers who themselves are likely in their 30s and 40s and have lived through decades of such online discourse in their youth when you would regularly be told by your opponent that they slept with your mother.
Should he have treated you that way? Absolutely not. Will Gypsy (who is permanently banned from TL) or Artosis (who hasn't used the site in like a decade) see this or care? Also no.
So, it's probably best to just let it go and move on. There is no reason to waste your time, energy, and emotions on this at all. There is no benefit either. The way people treat you is not a reflection of you but of themselves. Remember that and invest your energy accordingly, IMO.
E: Re: Bolded part: Perhaps I'm wildly mistaken but I am pretty sure these attitudes are much more widely espoused and accepted in Korea than you might think; I honestly lol'd when you said Koreans wouldn'taccept racist/sexist attitudes. The only confounding issue is that he is not Korean himself, which is an issue because of the previous statement. What's your exposure and experience with Korean culture? Maybe you have a more updated take.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. My ailments (of which Gypsy would likely attempt eugenics to eradicate) makes it hard to stay on top of things.
My therapist and I thought it important to speak my peace and stand strong against these abusors and perpetrators.
I'm not one to language police. But the line is crossed when its used to subjugate and crush minorities which have a long and storied history of oppression. My commitment is to combat whiteness and colonizers no matter the form they take.
To Telecom: This is my first post as it's the first time someone with a powerful platform and influence within the starcraft community has shows their true colours of rasicm, ableism and discrimination.
To Jealous: Koreans can't be racist due to long standing power inequity and subjugation under U.S colonial rule re: Korean war (read much?).
Gypsy and his ilk simply parrot Israeli implanted language designed to divide and oppress. It only serves to widen the power divide and keep minorities in their place.

Stay strong bro. Ive got some phone numbers in your area if you need any kind of mental support during this difficult time
|
TornadoSteve so discrimination is just a joke to you? You don't even know where I live so how would you have support numbers to give me??
Do you have no nuance?
You people say "Gypsy stream small, therefore spewing hate good social justice bad".
You fail to address the cultural and historic context in which we all live.
If rocking the boat of Gypsy's racist hugbox means being subjected to even more hate than so be it.

I don't even...The best thing you can do for your mental health is to not engage with things that hurt it, especially if its something like a 30 year old video game and its community, all of which cannot be that important to your life.
