JiDion encouraged his viewers to launch a \u201chate raid\u201d on Pokimane\u2019s Twitch stream on January 12. He was promptly banned from the platform for 14-days shortly after. It happened a mere day after his account was verified. At the time, he accepted full responsibility for breaking the terms of service. However, he insisted that it had nothing to do with her gender. \u201cMy dislike for her has nothing to do with her gender, but her as a person!\u201d In an interesting turn of events, JiDion revealed that Twitch has now upgraded it to a permanent ban.
