Today's Blind Items - The Bully

This entertainer/athlete/porn star/drug user has a Twitch channel has been known to hold ‘ban appeal’ segments, which are thinly disguised cyberbullying segments. Whether the ban is justified or not, she proceeds if any ban appeal comes in, to publicly bully the aforementioned user on her channel, and rally her community to gang up on them and bully them themselves, without regard to if the result drives any given user to suicide or not. It has happened at least twice so far that a suicide has occurred. It doesn’t matter if the ban was due to justifiable reasons such as creepy behavior/racism//bigotry etc, or something innocent like a misworded, respectful question. She triggers the ban button and then churns the affected users into her cyberbullying machine, Twitch refuses to act because she is a ‘celebrity’ and Twitch partner who makes money for them.   

She already was temporarily suspended from Twitch for DCMA for streaming a movie on her channel but apparently Twitch does not care about cyberbullying issues unless it is subject to a court case or a media onslaught. Twitch will care when they are named as a defendant in a wrongful death lawsuit.
