The Twitch account russiangas1, a 24/7 feed of a stove top burning gas to troll NATO, has been banned from Twitch due to a “violation of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.” Twitch did not immediately return Motherboard’s request for comment about why the account was banned.

Created on September 11, 2022, russiangas1 had been streaming off and on since September 17. With minor variations, the stream was always the same: stove tops burning with a message superimposed on the screen explaining how cheap it was for Russians to burn gas. The stream was a troll directed at a Europe that’s been cut off from Russian gas and is facing economic turmoil and a brutal winter.
