Hasan hits back at Twitch outrage over him buying $2.74m Hollywood home Instagram: Hasan \/ Rodeo RealtyHasan \u2018HasanAbi\u2019 Piker hit back at the outrage about him buying a $2.74 million home in Hollywood, claiming everyone needs to \u201ccollectively calm down\u201d and telling haters to \u201csuck his d**k.\u201d Hasan\u2019s success reached new heights in 2021. He currently has 1.5 million followers and 50,000 active subscribers on Twitch, and the numbers keep on rising. So, it\u2019s only natural that he\u2019d cash in his chips and buy a new home. However, the internet erupted into a heated debate after an article reported his new home in West Hollywood cost him a whopping $2.74 million, which some people saw as hypocritical given that he identifies as a socialist. It\u2019s not the first time it\u2019s happened, either. Nicole \u2018Neekolul\u2019 Sanchez was criticized for purchasing a $2m apartment for the same reason. Many people rushed to her defense, and they\u2019re doing the same for Hasan. He\u2019s also been hitting back at the haters himself too. That includes individual responses to fans claiming he\u2019s \u201cdisingenuous,\u201d should donate a \u201csignificant amount of money\u201d to charity given his riches, and should keep advocating for higher taxes on the rich, including himself. Hasan has responded to this outrage The essence of the argument against him is simple; essentially, some Twitch fans feel like Hasan isn\u2019t practicing what he preaches, given that he\u2019s apparently indulging in an expensive lifestyle. They\u2019ve been calling him out on social media, too. They made various points about his situation, and he\u2019s been responding. In one example, he took a swipe at a user who claimed it was \u201cimmoral\u201d for him not to donate significant amounts of money to charity given his wealth, claiming that he donates money both publically and privately. He wrote: \u201cI do donate, some public, most not. However, this is a f**king brain-dead take that keeps dumbasses thinking Bill Gates is a good guy btw.\u201d i do donate, some public most not. however this is a fucking brain dead take that keeps dumbasses thinking that bill gates is a good guy btw. https:\/\/t.co\/BsqpSRV3KP \u2014 hasanabi (@hasanthehun) August 20, 2021 More comments followed, including one from a user who claimed buying mansions isn\u2019t how you solve social issues and accused him of only donating to charity to evade taxes. \u201cYou really think doing my personal accounting is valid political critique?\u201d Hasan said in a deleted tweet. \u201cI bought a house for my family. It\u2019s also where I intend to stream every day. Why is this any of your f**king business? In the end, he said everyone \u201ccollectively needs to calm down\u201d and those still after his head can \u201csuck [his] d*ck.\u201dHe also joked about what kind of \u201cwonderful, intelligent discourse\u201d would transpire if he decided to upgrade his car. Ethan Klein, Ana Kasparian rush to Hasan\u2019s defense It\u2019s not all about the people criticizing him, though. Many others defended him, including Ethan Klein. \u201cY\u2019all really think Hasan shouldn\u2019t be able to own a nice house and also champion for the poor and underprivileged?\u201d he said. \u201cThere is a difference between making millions on Twitch and paying 50% in taxes, and Jeff Bezons being worth 150mbillion and paying no taxes,\u201d Klein continued. \u201cHappy Hasan is crushing it.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/h3h3productions\/status\/1428532452088156161?s=20 Ana Kasparian, the host and a producer of The Young Turks, also defended her friend and former colleague. \u201cI\u2019d like to congratulate Hasan for building a successful career,\u201d she said. \u201cEnjoy the home. Nothing wrong with having nice things. I’d like to congratulate @hasanthehun for building a successful career without having suck up to right wingers like Tucker Carlson. Enjoy the home. Nothing wrong with having nice things. \u2014 Ana Kasparian (@AnaKasparian) August 20, 2021 They\u2019re not the only ones to support him either. A large number of fans and neutral viewers agree with them too. So, while the conversation will likely rage on throughout the week, plenty of people are on either side of the debate. In the end, though, Hasan wasn\u2019t having a bar of it, and he responded to countless comments, including others not included in this article. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say during his next Twitch stream too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
