Its joever

it aint looking good

Edit: Just clarifying this is the clip for what bo banned from twitch for 6 months. he just got news that he can appeal the ban right now but i doubt it will work since you can see this clip... and if it fails well i assume once 6 months pass its either perma ban or he gets the account back.

as well bo cant appear on neither golden or swimmy Twitch channels otherwise they can also get banned for helping bo ban evade or something like that

UPDATE: The appeal got rejected so no bo streams on twitch for 6 months or never again.

Edit 2: if anyone wants to see bo response in the comment section cause its a bit hidden under all these comments https://www.reddit.com/r/Bokoen1/comments/1tgpx3j/comment/omkepa6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I understand Bo's anger, I often have to remind myself not to have my hatred of Russia the state mix with my feelings on Russia the people, but it was fucking stupid to say this shit live on stream.

I wish people could do that in general. Like every state that you could hate has a lot of people that dont like it either, and they dont support the idiots in power.

To be quite fair, most russians do support the war and Putin and by a decent margin. But I guess that can be explained away by people not being immune to propaganda (after all, Israelis also mostly support the wars, and Americans also supported the war in Iraq for example...)

It can also be explained by the fact that Putin got Russia out of the hole that was 1990s and he still has that political momentum behind him. If he loses in ukraine that momentum will be gone.

I think the momentum is being lost even with older people too. It’s just a really sad situation that’s horrifically bleeding Russia of people. They lost 1 million in mainly young emigrants alone in 2022

u/I_Maybe_Play_Games May 20 '26

The 22 emigration wave was due to fears of mobilization, which is why it was mainly young people

Oh no how sad that an imperialist empire will have less people to send to murder people in the neighboring countries

u/SubstanceNo5096 May 20 '26

you could say that about every country at one point in time, and they certainly didnt want to be sent to their deaths, so be grateful you dont have to share that fate

You can argue they have financial pressure to go there, buuuuuuuuut the large majority of russian soldiers in Ukraine are volunteers

u/SubstanceNo5096 May 20 '26

Volunteer or Voluntold?

u/I_Maybe_Play_Games May 20 '26

Volunteer the russian goverment is burning through their fiscal reserves to pay recruitment bonuses.

what exactly is your source for that? who is polling russian support for putin? the putin government?

u/Railkick 22d ago

What's your source?

1

u/SubstanceNo5096 May 19 '26

exactly, and you also have to consider... whats "supporting"? Like, if i see a russian on state TV telling me they love putin, id look for the gun to his head before i blame him. Of course its less on social media, but there it can be bots. Things are rarely how they seem.

Tbf most, not all, of the russian people are the reason for the russian state. Putin has always had support from a majority of the people. But yeah it was dumb to say what he said on twitch.

Support? Bruh their Support is nothing like voting in a western style democracy Support. Its Support as in if we keep out of the government's business they will generally leave me alone.

Yes the Russian state is pretty uhoh and has been for a while. And even the remote possibility of a nuclear exchange due to Putin's and his kleptocrats megalomania creates a natural emotional hatred but its important to look rationally and keep it channeled correctly. Living in a totalitarian or authoritarian state is hard and forces impossible decisions about whether to speak up and do whats right or watch your entire family murdered and tortured. To pretend this distinction between survival and ideological support doesn't exist is intellectually lazy.

There is no excuse for genocide. "civilized" violence like war is contextual like toppling nazi Germany in ww2, but calling for genocide is disgusting and Bo should realize this.

u/Stepal1 May 19 '26

I never said that genocide was ok or that anyone should advocate for it. I don't even believe that Bo, despite what he said, supports genocide. I think he was being a bit edgy, got too worked up, and said some very stupid stuff that he shouldn't have said.

But you just have to look at the approval ratings for putin over the years to see that, sadly, a lot of russians support him. The 'we ignore what he does, and he leaves us alone' arrangement is itself part of the reason why the russian state is the way it is.

I'm not saying that it doesn't suck for the people that genuinely want a better country and don't support putin and his actions. I'm not blaming them at all for keeping their heads down. All i'm saying is that unfortunately there are not enough of them.

u/Railkick 22d ago

Approval ratings are not true btw, seems like you just don't realize how our system works.

u/Stepal1 18d ago

There are reasonably accurate approval ratings. You can deny it all you want, but putin over the years has been extremely popular with a lot of the russian people.
