I have recently been reading the threads about keznit and the allegations of racism, I read several opinions both from Brazilians themselves and also from Chileans and i came to the conclusion that Keznit has never been racist.

I will attach my evidence and arguments to refute the allegations about him

(If there is an accusation that I have not spoken about please let me know)

1st allegation: Keznit was accused of making monkey sounds towards a Brazilian player after making a clutch

The explanation: The clip is taken out of context, actually keznit was imitating a meme about a Brazilian dog that "sings". They were joking in that stream about the meme

EVIDENCE:
Clip of which he is accused: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc_KDdrlkeM
The original meme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ5kjbMXfM8
The same match but with the context: https://m.twitch.tv/clip/DarlingZanyBillNerfBlueBlaster
Another match talking about the meme: https://m.twitch.tv/clip/StylishSpineyParrotOhMyDog

Note: at the end of the first clip, he says "El perro brasileño" that means "The brazilian dog"

2nd allegation: Keznit was accused of being racist in CS towards brazilians

EVIDENCE:
There's no evidence, people saying that Keznit got banned on many accounts of face it but there's no evidence:
Another thread about this: https://www.vlr.gg/126917/keznit-racism-in-cs

3rd allegation: Keznit was accused of being racist for saying "Primate" to aspas

The explanation: Keznit said "Primate" to aspas, people think that he said it in a racist way when in reality "Primate" in Chile is used as a way of calling someone cousin or friend
COUSIN = PRIMO (in spanish)
PRIMO -> PRIMATE

Said by himself and as a Chilean I can confirm it

EVIDENCE
Clip of Keznit chatting with aspas in valorant inviting him to play together: https://twitter.com/yawnsnore/status/1513655279103135745

It should be noted that it does not make sense since currently Aspas and Keznit still maintain a good friendship.

4th allegation: Keznit was accused of being racist for comparing DGZIN with CJ (GTA SA main character)

The explanation:
During a scrim Keznit and Mazino, they had an argument with DGZIN

EVIDENCE
CHAT OF THE GAME:

(All) GL DGZ19: sim sim sim

Keznit tweet: https://x.com/keznitdeuS/status/1496153331999334404

The tweet translated to English:

"He calls me McDonald's and compares me to a chicken cartoon because of my physical appearance, but I compare him to a character because of his physical appearance and they call me racist for that? What's going through their heads? Why are they taking it that way? Can they ban me from the competition for something that never crossed my mind?

Kru sanctioned me but I might not have a career and have to keep quiet??
They can tell me that I don't know how racism affects there and I apologize for not having thought about that before making the comparison but NEVER put thoughts in my head that I don't have or words that I didn't say.
I compared him to a character like they did with me and that's it. Then they took him to the networks and exposed the part that suited them

I ask you please not to insult the brs as it makes the situation worse"

In summary:
-DGZIN said Keznit seems like a chicken run character (inoffensive comparison, he looks like that)
-Keznit said DGZIN seems like cj (inoffensive comparison, he looks like that)
Where is the racist speech in that comparison?

Finally I would like to send you the apology tweet that Keznit made after all, since I have seen that they say that supposedly Keznit never apologized to the Brazilian community.

after all, they only highlight what suits them, you're not talking about how everything else was just rumors and no one had any evidence, yet Keznit was still labeled a racist.

What I hate the most is his fanbase, not him. He and the other KRU players atleast in public they always tried to maintain peace and be friendly after these incidents. This "racism" of LATAM and BR in these FPS games go way back from counter-strike, its a hard matter.

You are just justifying. But its weird that 99% of BR players have something against Keznit, and they have "backstage info" that we dont. Ur just supposing that all BR players are butthurt for nothing and its all "misunderstanding". The only BR player that is somewhat friendly with Keznit is Aspas, and thats because Aspas always had zero enemies.

Even Less refused to shake Keznits hand after a game, and he was not part of these incidents and never did that to anyone else

heat, ex mibr core, aspas, and many other br players of the scene are friends of keznit, it is well known that Keznit generally gets along well with the Brazilian scene, when Less refused to shake Keznit's hand it was because of a dispute they had some time before in a ranked, it is not worth talking about that dispute here because it is like a child's fight (on both sides) but that was a lack of professionalism.

yes, the others are really fake, after the "cj" incident they got a bad vibe or something like that I guess
But still about CJ thing is misinterpreted

And it does not justify in any way the actions of the BR community, which went all out on him apart from receiving death threats
They make it clear to us that being racist is a crime in Brazil, but making death threats is also a crime anywhere

BR can be too reactionary at times. keznit himself apologized a while ago:

https://x.com/keznitdeuS/status/1867042500185059647?t=JebeMm3ipFT5934kX9VGAw&s=19

"but he was racist that cant be forgiven!!!"

well xand was racist too on camera and people conveniently forgot about it when he was trialing for loud early 24 and when he was on a furia run late 24 lol

i dont like keznit but i feel like people should just forget about that whole racism issue. like whoever has a personal issue with him, thats fair (like dgzin for instance), but the fans who never met him keep insisting on the same thing and is so tiring

i mean, it seems like the players themselves have pretty much moved on. you still see Keznit socializing with Dgzin or Aspas or whoever offstage. instead it's the fans who always get butthurt about shit on the players' behalf.

Great post, hopefully this year this whole situation ends because I'm tired of seeing X full of shit of both communities(LATAM and BR) just fighting for no reason as soon as KRU loses or wins against any BR team, people just keep fighting over and over using the same memes and saying the same shit either to defend themselves or attack the other community.

I think they are more open minded , here there is a whole culture of Brazil vs Latin America , the average brazilian thinks that every argentinjan is racist , then Extended this to all latam countries , wich is sad cuz we shoud be united , but its what it is . Most people here hate thr delusional Brazilian fans , so they wiil probally try to understand all the situation before insta agree with any brazilian.

What is keznit apologizing for?
Why did KRU sanctioned him?
Why did riot punished him for racial injury?

For no reason, right?

You complain but you relived this incident with Keznit again, even though everything was already calm about this matter.
In December he apologized again about this incident and you are reviving this case to play the victim

What is keznit apologizing for?
he's apologizing to Tixinha because in off//season he was invited to a brazilian tournament, the brazilians hated Tixinha for inviting Keznit and his team, then he apologized again to the brazilian fans and asked them to know how to forgive and that people can change.

Why did KRU sanctioned him?
kru sanctioned him due to pressure from the entire brazilian community, apart from for complying with Riot and not losing the opportunity to associate with Riot as a team as happened later in the franchise.

Why did riot punished him for racial injury?
riot punished him for having a good image with brazil and the sponsors, not saying anything about it would have been bad for Riot, in short, they did it out of pressure
everyone in the community after keznit was punished, riot was asked to punish dgzin as well but since the heat of the situation had passed, riot did nothing more about it to forget the issue.

"You complain but you relived this incident with Keznit again, even though everything was already calm about this matter.
In December he apologized again about this incident and you are reviving this case to play the victim"

the purpose of this post is not to play the victim role, it is to make clear what really happened to people who were not so aware of this issue, I saw that many people were not clear about what really happened and what was true and what was not.

And besides, keznit said that like an offense, like is a bad thing being CJ

When a black dude tell u, a white/latino dude that someone is racist or something that he said was racist, U LISTEN AND U AGREE, U DONT CONTEND, U DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SUFFER RACISM

and why there's brazilian people accepting that everything was exaggerated and it is better to forget they who, according to you, know how it is to be racist with themselves
in the previous answer you said that there are 5 accusations about Keznit, I only know 4, what is the fifth one
Apart from the fact that you are doing something just as bad as being racist, which is hate speech and accusations without evidence against people, I have seen many of your messages accusing Keznit of being racist, and also that there was a "woman abuser" on the team...?
but of course nothing is said to you because you have no repercussions, you are not a public image and nobody is interested in you
apart from the clear ignorance of the subject that you don't even know the nationality of the guy you accuse of being racist
finally, if you are going to talk about something like this, inform yourself a little
and just so you know, racism is not only towards people of color, white people also suffer from racism, enough of so much ignorance, you are not the center of the world
since I'm neither black nor brazilian, I have no right to talk about this and give my opinion, right? like what the heck
