...and with a rule in place you can also simply remove the word/the chatters using them without making it feel like you're an ass or making people want to retaliate for that timeout. personally I would ban each and every person throwing these terms out regularly in a stream

I think I agree with you on "simp" and "virgin," and while we're at it "cuck," but incel?? This just feels like an extremely strange action on a platform where open misogyny ("oh she's a titty streamer") and transphobia ("did u ASSUME my gender") runs rampant

it makes little sense as a comparative action within the scope of chats but makes sense to me as an individual decision. most of these things are tied real closely to misogyny & masculinity (who uses this word? why? what are the edge cases lost as collateral damage?)

ultimately though there's no remedying the issues present here, so it doesn't hurt but hardly helps
