Banned on Twitch: We're Back on Youtube

hold on

all right guys i'm going to wait for you

guys to get in here um

so i just want to make a quick

announcement i don't think i'm going to

be streaming for much longer actually

today at least um

so i want to give you some uh background

on what happened recently

so we were on twitch and on this

particular day

you know lefty pull you know i'm gonna

just give you

the rundown basically when we first

started streaming

um we first started streaming a website

called lefty pull discovered us

i decided to drop them and basically you

know

disavow them because i you know i didn't

want anything to do with them

and uh they said oh you're gonna be you

know you're gone forever this is pretty

much over

you know the the whole you guys are not

going to grow

infrared's done and um

basically uh hold on i'm just thinking

about a lot of things

basically they were like yeah you're not

going to grow this the beginning of

infrared

and then we we grew we grew phenomenally

we grew phenomenally and then i

made a decision a really risky decision

one we're gonna make again uh when the

time comes

it will happen um

i made the decision to switch our

streaming platform to twitch

exclusively on twitch um just so that

we can be twitch affiliates we can have

the subscription model we can

have a way to monetize our streams

without people having to pay um

so we switched platforms basically we

switched it back

uh we switched it to youtube

today was an excellent stream i was

dedicating the entire stream to covering

the situation in palestine

i was watching a documentary about

israeli brutality against

the palestinians and

lefty paul managed to catch a specific

part of abby martin's documentary

where a sniper shot in a non-lethal way

shot um a palestinian

[Music]

um

so lefty pull engaged in brigading and

mass reporting

uh and with the intention in mind to get

me banned and to give me d

platform basically

and um turns out that the

scene in question might have been tos i

suppose i think it

had to have been manually removed in

some kind of way

but the um hold on

yeah the yeah so we got suspended i'm

just getting the email right now

checking it now and we're suspended for

30 days

um so 30 days

so it's going to be june

that we're going to be on band we're

going to be on band

in june the thing is

is that this is a pretty unfortunate

turn of events

as far as i mean our growth on twitch

has been

phenomenal um yeah i'm going to appeal

it i'm definitely going to appeal it

but just losing that vod alone is you

know it's a shame

um

this is not the end whatsoever it's not

the end of the world

um i have absolutely no doubt whatsoever

that these 30 days on

youtube are going to be phenomenal i

mean it's going to be a phenomenal

period of

of growth for us but it is a shame it's

gonna it's gonna hurt our growth on

twitch

because i really was looking forward to

i mean i was

really we were really trying to build

our twitch um but these things happened

we are going to migrate back to twitch

as soon as we're unbanned from twitch

but for the next 30 days um

for the next 30 days we're going to be

going

live uh on youtube and let me just

make sure that this is going to save the

vod

um let me see

i it's been so long we've streamed on

youtube i just got to make sure this

is gonna save the vod after it's done

um

[Music]

is there like some settings i can do is

there

well let me see something checking

yeah i mean we've always been able to

get more viewers on

on youtube on average anyway i mean it's

not

it's not really that big of a deal

yeah hold on

so this details

so let me see will it save after this is

over so because i don't want to make

this again

basically i don't want to make this have

to explain this whole thing again

allow i think it will save i think it

will save okay i think it'll save

but we're fine yeah so anyway

um yeah we were banned on twitch lefty

pull brigaded us

uh they mass reported us we're covering

the situation in palestine it's really

the only thing

our enemies can do is just you know

report us brigade us

um hopefully none of your money goes to

waste and

let's see

i don't know how that works uh i don't

know how that works hopefully

none of that that money didn't go to

waste hope it didn't

new purge i don't think so i think we're

just gonna stick to our typical

uh our typical routine our typical

policy of just banning lefty polars

can we appeal yes i'm going to appeal it

i'm looking at it right now um

okay so the reason is death or extreme

injury media sharing content depicting

real death or extreme in

injury well it sounds like um

well no the examples yeah i don't know

um

i i should get an invoice for the

subscription still

but yeah it's going to be a 30-day ban

and um

i don't know i don't know if i can

appeal it actually i don't know but it's

only 30 days guys

you know june june 10th

june 20th we'll be back to where we were

um

we're going to do another migration and

the youtube is going to be built up

again you know the youtube

definitely going to be built up again

um well i'm going to make sure that

everyone

we knew that we got from twitch is going

to

come back to you know make sure they

know that we're going to be streaming on

the youtube

honest to god i'm not worried because i

know the hunger the thirst

or infrared is real um

it's out there a lot of our viewers

preferred

youtube anyway

they're bragging about it i know we're

not going to give them any more

attention call us it's over um

you know we have a lot of enemies guys

we have a lot of enemies

lefty pull was just one of our enemies

we have bosch's community we have uh

that sansa guy we have a lot of enemies

guys we've made a

lot of enemies and you know the reason

for that you know why

yourselves uh you yourselves know why

you know

um i don't think i'm gonna make a video

about it i think this video should

suffice

uh all by itself as an explanation for

like what happened and everything

but it is like a pedophile website

uh it's i it was hosted on 8chan 8chan

is famous for

hosting for hosting mass shootings and

pedophilia

but um twitch's terms of service are

twitch's terms of service

uh apparently what we showed was tos

and you know i'll in the future i'll be

more careful and more mindful of that i

i just

i didn't think it would be but

apparently it was it was tos

and it doesn't matter what the source of

the reports comes from whether it's son

saul's viewers whether it's the

pedophiles from

from lefty pull doing it it honestly

doesn't matter you know it is what it is

we should put it behind us um

and not worry about it because i'm not

worried

uh it is kind of an l it is an l but

it's not a personal

l it's not an l to my honor it's not

like i lost a debate

it's not like uh you know my character

has degraded it's that

people have resorted to the cowardice of

trying to get us d

platformed and you know this time they

were

successful for 30 days they're

successful we're not going to be on

twitch

uh for another 30 days

it's it sucks it honestly sucks

but listen guys i'm not gonna let this

deter me i'm not gonna let it deter me

that's the thing

i'm not gonna let this get me down when

i saw that email and when i saw

that our stream

was over and i saw that the chat stopped

playing because i was giving a speech

the chat was going so fast

and i saw that it stopped at that point

i knew we were banned

and for a quick second i was like really

hurt and bummed out i was like you know

what should i just take a break

this is too much this is too much stress

i've been fighting for so long i could

use a break

but then in a second i snapped out of it

and i said why am i gonna let this bring

me down i'm not gonna let this bring me

down

when have i been known for being a

quitter when have i been known for

for being a fucking guy who gives up huh

when have i been known for being a

fucking guy

who's just gonna quit huh

the only thing i'm gonna miss the most

from twitch

is some of the people i met on twitch

and you know that's it though that's

honestly it

i mean i'm not fucking worried

i'm not worried

i'm not worried

this isn't that big of a deal we've been

banned before

the seven day ban hurt us quite a bit

but it's gonna be a 30 you know we came

from

nothing we came from nothing guys

we came from nothing if you bring me

back to zero

i'm gonna pick up where i left off with

ease

i'll pick up where i left off from it's

not a big deal

i'll just pick up where i left off from

is that such a big deal

sure i'm gonna have to have a hard

restart on twitch

i'm foreseeing that i'm gonna be back on

twitch and you know

i'm gonna be streaming with 50 viewers

60 viewers

but you know what i'm not gonna let that

bring me down i'm not gonna let that you

know

deter me i'm not gonna get depressed

about it because we came from nothing

we came from nothing and as far as i'm

concerned

we're not even nothing right now

we're back on youtube where we came from

and we have a huge

audience on youtube we have 4 000

subscribers

and we have a lot of viewers on youtube

who didn't even come back to twitch

we got a lot of viewers from youtube who

didn't even migrate to twitch

so we have we're going to have a lot of

viewers on youtube it's not going to be

a big deal

and we started from nothing

i'm not big you know i don't base

i don't base you know i don't base

infrared

off of i don't base infrared off of uh

precedent i don't base it off of

precedent

i base infrared off of where it

fundamentally comes from

right i don't base it just off of

inertia or just because we're big we're

big no

we came from zero and we rose to the top

and if you put me back to zero we'll

rise to the top

just like we did before

just like we did before

i'm not riding off of inertia i'm riding

off of something real

this is something real you better

fucking believe it's something real

and we're not even being reduced to zero

are we now

we're not even being reduced to zero

because guess what

guess what guys we have a huge following

on youtube

a huge following on youtube

a huge one

this isn't gonna kill us we're gonna

come back 10 times stronger

our growth is faster on youtube we have

faster growth on youtube because we have

a bigger audience on youtube

so for the next 30 days we're gonna have

30 days of growth

and then we're gonna migrate back to

twitch where we came from

a lot of people prefer youtube anyway

a lot of people prefer youtube anyway

it's not a big deal

it's an l i'm going to admit it it's an

alex's setback

30 days

they're snitches snitches that's all

they have is snitching

from a people that persist

it's in our blood

i think i'm gonna let shit get me down

you think i'm gonna let that shit get me

down

huh

it was left people yes there were

zionists and pedophiles from a website

called lefty pool

it's saying nothing though because we

got a lot of enemies

they just got lucky they're one of our

enemies it could have been vastus people

who did this

it could have been sansa who did this it

could have been dylan burns people who

did this

it could have been destiny who did this

they're the ones who got lucky today

that's okay

you don't think i prepared for this

possibility

like this is impossible you don't think

i prepared for the possibility i have

i have prepared for this possibility

they don't have a tactical advantage

nobody does

there's nothing they can do there's not

enough of them there's more people in

this fucking stream right now

than everyone on that whole fucking

website combined

let alone our supporters in general

there's just not enough of them

there was about five people who reported

us

and that's what happened even if one

person reported us that's what would

have happened

they just got lucky because they planned

it

it's a website called leftypul.org

that did this

i'm not that worried about youtube

youtube's way more lacks than twitch way

more relaxed than twitch

way way more relaxed than twitch in fact

you have thought about getting a d live

account no it's not going to happen

we go where infrared goes

what happened we got suspended on twitch

for 30 days

infrared exists because of lefty pool no

that's a cult

our first 30 concurrent viewers were

because of lefty pool

and i dropped lefty pool then they said

i'm going to be done

i'm gonna be gone forever then look what

happened

i was on twitch averaging 250 views

and growing very fast and very rapidly

they played um no part in our growth

wash

if you said infrared exists because of

wash it would be more true

stream on billy billy yeah

we'll see

we'll see

it's a mass shooter website a bunch of

pedophiles

it's okay we're back on youtube that's

where we came from

i don't forget my origins i don't forget

my humble beginnings

it's the second band yeah

i don't forget my humble beginnings

not a shot not a shot i'm forgetting my

humble beginnings

get a decent webcam and don't worry

about it

don't worry about it 30 days ain't much

okay 30 days ain't much it honestly

ain't much

30 days ain't much

it's not that much okay i mean the seven

days sucked

it honestly sucked but

we built a following on twitch we're

gonna be back

call us it's gonna be back to how it was

infrared simply cannot be stopped guys

we simply cannot be stopped

i want you to remember that infrared

simply cannot be stopped

are we gonna stream here in the meantime

yep every single day

almost every single day of the next 30

days we're going to be streaming

now i have a final for my law exam

this week so the day before the final

there's not going to be a stream

as per protocol as usual

but other than that yeah we're going to

be back to streaming

and we're going to be back to our intro

screens remember this guys

we're gonna be back it's not a big deal

and join our discord join our fucking

discord

isn't the last final yep it's the last

one so after this one i'm done with law

school

we're gonna have a summer of growth okay

we'll have a summer of growth

like wow what uh what uh what a big

dent in you know in infrared

we started this immediately and we had

250

viewers it usually takes time for us to

grow

our viewers you know on youtube but we

have such a big following on youtube

it is what it is you know well i

complete law school i don't know

i don't know

i don't know we're back

back on youtube

and uh so youtube has a weird way of

like

moderation so you have to like manually

ban

everyone but i'm gonna make sure me uh

what's his name

bing yeah bing is just gonna be banned i

just

his messages will be hidden from now on

i'm not gonna be able to see his

messages

so bing is gone i wanna see his bitch

ass

he's never gonna be seen on stream again

you know

i youtube is different i got used to

twitch youtube

so different it's honestly really

different

and i got used to twitch you know

will super chats be available yes

possibly tomorrow

you know they're going to be available

very soon

why did you get banned off twitch uh

because uh

the zionist pedophiles from uh lefty

pool

they reported me because i was watching

a documentary about abby martin

uh covering gaza

i dedicated the whole stream to the

palestinian struggle

that's what they did i remember my

origins i remember where i came from

it's not a big deal it ain't an issue

it ain't an issue

it wasn't destiny had nothing to do with

it it was all

lefty pool

do i think infrared is dead now because

of this fuck no dude

look at look at the stream right now

does this look dead to you

and i'm gonna end it soon i'm just

wanted to be here to be uh

to announce it

yeah we're gonna it's only we're gonna

only go up from here in terms of growth

you know

terms of growth is only up from here you

know

sad day from the infrared collective

more like

sad minute dude i'm sad for a few

minutes

i'm not gonna let this shit bring me

down

i'm gonna let this shit bring me down

man

youtube is better for growth yeah

it is his

unfortunately we're not going to be able

to debate big streamers like uh

from twitch but we're probably going to

be able to debate youtube streamers

just not no twitch streamers we're not

going to be able to interact with or

debate any twitch streamers

which is honestly what kills me the most

that's what kills me the most

is not being able to interact with any

twitch streamers

especially the ones i like

for 30 days but that's okay

that's okay have luna oil

no i'm my own thing i'm still my own

thing okay

this is not hakeem this is not luna oy

infrared is its own thing okay

um we are gonna monetize this

and i'm gonna see what youtube's got

going for it what are youtube's options

what is youtube you know

youtube's got custom emojis how do we

get some of those custom emojis you know

like

we'll see but for now we got those

gorillas and so let me see the gorillas

and sons in the chat

let me see those gorillas and sons in

the chat

go ahead let me see those gorillas and

sons in the chat

there we go the original og shit

see

we gotta be way less careful on youtube

too because youtube is way

way more relaxed about the tos so

we're good dude we're good we're good

we're good

look at that is this going to kill

infrared

look at this fucking chat house is going

to kill us

look at that

look at that

we're gonna work harder i was getting a

little bit comfortable on twitch

i was getting a little bit complacent

we're gonna work twice as hard now

we're gonna work twice as hard now

this is a small setback small setback

but honestly you'd have to force me to

do this

obviously because i wouldn't do it by

choice but guess what

youtube has a huge growth we're gonna

grow

faster on youtube than we grow on twitch

which is very hard to grow so we're just

going to have explosive youtube growth

from go here going forward the next 30

days

explosive youtube growth

okay we're going to have explosive

youtube growth

more educational streams possibly

because i get less annoyed on youtube

than twitch you know why

because chatters have less ability to

type

essays in the chat than they do on

twitch

and so there there could there's

probably going to be more educational

shit and shit too

you know and i can do that now

because the youtube audience is

different

the platform is different and um

the chatters have less ability to annoy

me on youtube

you know

okay guys i'm gonna go work out

i'm gonna go appeal the band i'm gonna

do all that kind of stuff

don't think this is gonna bring us down

because it's not

this is only the beginning infrared is

still in the nascent

stages of its growth

and don't worry if i'm not worried you

don't have to worry

okay if i'm not worried i don't want you

to worry

i believe in this i have confidence in

this

you understand what is that saying what

doesn't kill us

only makes us stronger you understand

never forget it
