What does Twitch define as offensive speech?

According to the Twitch Terms of Service Offensive speech is defined by words and conversations that promote or encourage discrimination.
Harassment or violent speech is based on the following:

ethnicity or race
religious beliefs
gender
gender identity

Other bannable offenses include abuse against people due to their medical conditions, disabilities, physical characteristics, age, or veteran status.

Step 1: From your channel settings, click “Moderation” on the menu on the lefthand side.

Step 2: Select “Blocked Terms and Phrases.”

Step 3: Set up words and phrases which will automatically be blocked in chat. Make sure to include similar and misspellings of the words as well.

Your mods will also be able to easily ban words using Twitch’s Mod View.
