Right away people started being upset about this, saying that his Twitch account should be banned, calling him racist. Just about everything that you’d expect to happen. But in reality there is another side of Twitter that is saying he should be allowed to say it.
Which is absolutely crazy to me.
As somebody who grew up in the early 00s y’all are way to sensitive. Cause to be fair Igga is just a common phrase to mean a homie. Gger, now that’s ridiculous. Granted nobody now-a-days see it like that cause y’all “woke af.”
I have over 400 hours in his chat it was a stutter he didn’t say it
