N word or Idiot, what do you hear?

[breslin]

How can you tell someone how something sounds to them

You're right, telling an insane person that there really aren't pony demons and lizard people is pointless. Its true to them.

Well, he said idiots in that clip.

Now, if that clip left out the part where he said "nigger" then that's a different issue.

[Echoherb]

Because he's the kind of person that starts threads like https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...n-the-election


Slow it down and listen closely to the first sound that comes out his mouth. It's not a vowel, idiot

Did you really scan through my topic history to try to dig up dirt? That's pretty creepy.

And yeah the point is he said it with an accent, so that why it sounds different. Doesn't at all sound like the N word.

That is the clip in question im 99% sure

Honestly this is the only plausible thing I can think of is that he said it somewhere else outside of that clip, but idk he seems like a decent dude I really can't imagine saying the word.

No it doesn't. It sounds like he's saying "idiots". There's not a second of hesitation whatsoever.

That could be completely, 100%, true. As I said, he has a very noticeable accent. And you don't have to hesitate to change syllables &

(And, by the way.. Responding with; "No it doesn't." When replying to someones statement of their inner perception, or opinion, just makes you an asshole.)

There's no context whatsoever that suggests he started to say the N word then changed it. That doesn't even make sense. I'm not arguing that you percieved it that way obviously, I'm saying your inner perception is wrong. I'm willing to risk being an asshole (though I'm not trying to be).

A league streamer was recently banned from twitch for allegedly saying the n word on stream.



Embedded is the video in which the entire staff of twitch has reviewed and apparently is able to hear him saying the n word. Decide for yourself.

Edit.

Twitch banned him for 30 days, then reviewed the clip as a group and still apparently reached the conclusion that in fact the streamer was spewing racial slurs. They then reduced his ban to 7 days, for reasons not known to me.

at regular volume, sounds like nig*** at louder volume slowed down, it sounds like Idiot through a thick accent. but the mere fact that it can be interpreted as nig*** should be grounds for the ban, and only to be lifted if it can be proven that the latter was said with audio breakdown.

In no way can I hear anything even approaching the word nigger in that clip.

I changed out my bose headphones for shitty computer speakers and turned the sound way down, and still hear idiots.

[Kuja]

How is his stream history? Does he often swear and use rude words? If not, then it's for sure "idiots".

[Violent]

In fact, you did though.

Because I said, "It sounds like, or almost sounds like..." completely qualifies anything I say after that as purely speculation at best, and a mere uncertain guess and opinion, at least.
Not because I put 100% logical, thought including taking context as well as everything else in to account. But because that's what my ears heard.

Notice how I voted for "Idiots". That is because I very much believe and am convinced he said "idiots".

[Bapestar]

Yea he says it 10 seconds in.

[breslin]

Yea he says it 10 seconds in.

He says "holy shit kill these idiots" and its pretty clear to me.

[qwerty123456]

He should sue twitch for discriminating against people with accents. He clearly says idiots you can hear him say it twice.

[Bapestar]

He says "holy shit kill these idiots" and its pretty clear to me.

Yea it does sound like idiots. I can see how it can be mistaken as the n word.

[conceptKitty]

If its a maybe then as the owners and stewards of the platform it's up to their discretion. He could take them to court for defamation and lose every time.

Its literally yanny and laurel.

I heard both. Damn it, ears!!! I'm in the Yanny group btw.
I can see why both can be heard but I believe he said idiots.

[Eldar45]

He very clearly says "Idiots", and they sound so different that I can't see how anyone is hearing anything different.

[breslin]

Yea it does sound like idiots. I can see how it can be mistaken as the n word.

I can't see how anyone could hear that and think he said the n word.

[conceptKitty]

That is what i was thinking of too. In that test i hear both as well.

I also hear it in the first video but it sounds kind of slurry? Almost as if it's a mix between the two. Poor dude, he should get his account back.
