image sourced from original article at Hasan Piker, a prominent online streamer with millions of followers, has become a celebrated figure in left-wing media circles, frequently appearing in glowing profiles that highlight his charisma and political influence. However, these media portrayals often omit or downplay a series of highly controversial and inflammatory statements Piker has made over the years.
Among his most notorious remarks are his assertion that 'America deserved 9/11,' praise for the terrorist who wounded a U.S. congressman, and repeated comments excusing or minimizing sexual violence committed by militant groups. Piker has also expressed admiration for groups and figures widely regarded as terrorists, made derogatory statements about Orthodox Jews, and advocated violence against landlords.
Despite his rising profile and mainstream acceptance, critics argue that Piker's history of provocative and offensive commentary is being overlooked, raising questions about the standards and priorities of the media outlets that have embraced him.
