Destiny weighs in on Hasan\u2019s $3 million house purchase controversy Twitch: Destiny\/HasanAbiLong-time Twitch streamer Steven \u2018Destiny\u2019 Bonell has weighed in on the controversy around Hasan \u2018HasanAbi\u2019 Piker\u2019s recent house purchase, stating both sides have terrible takes. While it may have started out as a hobby for some to-level gamers, Twitch has become a viable career path for plenty of content creators. At the very top, some streamers are making millions a year and can afford a lavish purchase or two. However, popular political commentator Hasan found himself in hot water with some viewers after if it was revealed that he\u2019d purchased a $3 million home in Los Angeles. The former Young Turks member has faced criticism from some who saw the purchase as hypocritical given that he identifies as a socialist. While others simply pointed out that it\u2019s money, so he gets to make the decisions. Plenty of streamers have given their take on the outrage, with many hitting out at some of the comments Hasan received for buying his home \u2013 which he, himself, has fired back at. Many viewers have been waiting for a take from his long-time rival, Destiny, after a little while he\u2019s finally chimed in. \u201cIf he wants to buy a big ass house, let him buy a big ass house, let him do it, that\u2019s fine,\u201d Destiny started. \u201cBut, I think it\u2019s a little funny when a guy spends his whole life sh**ting on somebody like (Jeff) Bezos and signs an exclusive contract with Bezos so he can make millions of dollars to go a buy a mansion. That\u2019s funny to me.\u201d Bonell noted that he wasn\u2019t sure if there was even a discussion to be had about it, but there are so many \u201cbad arguments\u201d from all sides that can easily fall apart and make a mockery of the whole situation, but ultimately he \u201cdoesn\u2019t care\u201d that much. Given the pair have butted heads on numerous occasions before, and things have gotten fractious between them, it wasn\u2019t quite the fiery take that some may have expected. Regardless, while the initial outrage seems to have passed, Hasan is so in the spotlight because of his success on Twitch that the criticism will never stop, even if it is, as Destiny says, a \u201cdogs**t argument\u201d about things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
