Numerous individuals online perceive Blue_Squadron's termination as unjust since he never generated explicit or unlawful material, allowing him to concentrate on his career as a content creator.
Blue_Squadron, a teacher and Twitch streamer, alleges that he was terminated from his job following his former guild's discord and the circulation of his stream clips to the school. The situation has sparked outrage, with the streamer maintaining that he did not engage in explicit or unlawful activities.
Controversies surrounding Twitch streamers are not uncommon, with several prominent figures facing temporary bans in the past year. Nonetheless, this particular case stands out as it involves a hobbyist streamer whose livelihood was supposedly jeopardized and ultimately terminated due to his Twitch broadcasts.
Blue_Squadron, a teacher, faced termination when his school received videos of his streams from former guild members. These videos circulated among students and faculty, leading to a clash between his online persona and professional life. Blue_Squadron, known as such when streaming on Twitch or creating content for YouTube and other social media platforms, had managed to maintain a separate identity until this recent incident. However, the situation quickly escalated, resulting in significant disruptions online and at his former school. In response to these unfortunate events, Blue_Squadron released a video providing his perspective.
Blue_Squadron believes that the main cause of the entire incident stems from a disagreement between himself and his previous guild in the multiplayer online game, Black Desert Online. This disagreement ultimately resulted in Blue_Squadron being expelled from the guild. In Black Desert Online, guilds are crucial for achieving success in the game. Blue_Squadron alleges that the guild's actions didn't stop there; they also shared clips of his live streams with the school where he used to work, which ultimately led to him being fired.
Many people online are outraged because they don't believe that Blue_Squadron committed any extremely offensive actions. The content creator acknowledges that his streams occasionally feature strong language and behavior that may be deemed inappropriate for a classroom setting. This is why he made an effort to keep his gaming persona separate from his professional life for as long as possible. Blue_Squadron's situation has gained attention, including in a video by Asmongold, a highly popular Twitch streamer, who provided additional context to the recent controversy.
The community has expressed their strong opinions about previous instances of Twitch bans that they consider unfair. However, this situation is distinct as it directly impacts the outside career of a hobbyist. Blue_Squadron has recently announced that he has obtained a new job and will be dedicating his time to kick-starting his content creation career, potentially leading to an increase in his streaming activity on Twitch.
