Who is Morgan aka Frogan?
Morgan is a Twitch streamer who is popular for playing horror and hunt games.
The Canadian gamer became a Twitch Affiliate in April 2020 and a Twitch Partner in April 2021.

She is a partner with famous brands like Crytek, Huntthegame, Madrinas, and phasmophobiaofficial.
Why was Morgan banned from Twitch?
Morgan was recently put under a 30-day ban by Twitch after she made a controversial comment on the US military.
According to a clip from the stream going viral on X/Twotter, she said in a live stream: “I will never have any f***ing pity for any f***ing soldiers.
“US military? Boo, f***ing who. I hope you get PTSD.”
The gamer also said that those in the military who acknowledge the alleged mistakes should not get PTSD.
“The US military that are like yeah, you know I did this back then but now I know it’s wrong like I am changed, f**k imperialism, f**k this, you don’t deserve the PTSD,” she added.
Forgan’s harsh and disrespectful comments quickly sparked a massive backlash and many Twitch users began to slam her for her words.
One user said: “She disrespected the troops those that put their lives on the line every day she deserved the ban.”
Another person said: “Good she should’ve never disrespected the us soldiers that risk their life every day for us to be free.”
A third person commented: “I mean she deserves this ban for 30 days because she’s an evil person.”
After being denounced for her remarks, Frogan issued a public apology on X/Twitter.
She wrote in the apology: “I go onto clarify in the clip that I do not mean “all” military, but specifically those with no remorse. What I said was out of frustration as they are currently bombing my family in the name of ‘liberation’.
“I realize that wishing people harm isn’t the best way to talk about these issues and that i could have talked about these topics in a more sensitive way.”
Is there more to the Frogan Twitch controversy?
While Morgan did apologize for her harsh remarks, she claimed the actual reason behind her ban was a “targeted hateful comment” that was viewed as anti-semitic.
The streamer allegedly slammed a Twitch tier list titled Loves Sabra, which refers to a brand that produces Middle-Eastern food products.
“People like bottom-of-the-barrel Hummus”, Morgan allegedly said during a live stream.
