In a statement, Twitch said that whilst it is a place “for people to express themselves and discuss the world around them”, from now on, any stream that includes discussions about war, religion, or “reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, or immigration” needs to be labelled.

    LGBTQ+ rights are about queer people being allowed to exist as they truly are, and marking that as political is honestly dehumanizing.

    Is talking about straight relationships “political”?

      I would say yes and should be in the same light as trans and whatnot.

      They are asking for a label so people know prior, they aren’t denying anyone the ability to talk about it.
