I agree with this

Still a very lame move by Blizzard though
It is a rather lame move, but people have to realize Blizzard is a company also and have to think of their bottom line with decisions. They can't placate a group to alienate another also. The problem is not everyone can be pleased and one side is going to be outraged no matter what they do anymore so which side do you even support anymore.

Politics becoming so ingrained with mainstream is absolutely terrible. This is why people get so upset with it. Sometimes, they just want to watch a football game. They just want to watch the Oscar's. Etc. They don't want to hear political statements any time they try to enjoy something.

In this scenario, a rule existed against this and he chose to do it. He faced the consequences at the expense of making his political statement. Whether you agree with the statement or not, it wasn't the right platform to exercise it. He took advantage of the platform the company gave him and broke the rules set forth beforehand regarding that platform they gave.

If they banned him because he expressed his beliefs on his own stream, that would be completely different.
