Twitch streamer and political commentator Hasan "HasanAbi" Piker recently commented against a longtime (33 months) channel subscriber, sparking criticism from netizens and fellow creators alike. For context, during a stream on November 15, 2025, Piker reacted to a viewer's comment about his diet and workout regimen. The streamer then banned this viewer from his community.

Piker initially read the comment out loud and then pulled out the viewer's recent chat logs, which read:

"You lookin' rough unc, god bless... Unc got four jackets on... You gotta get some workouts in, man. You eat more than Austin Peas ..."

Hasan seemingly took offense to these comments and said:

"First of all, never do this. Just never do that. F**king die, heh, if you're gonna do that. That's number one. Ridiculous... Whatta way to start the day boys. Who the f**k do you think you are, bi**h? Suck my f**king c*ck. Perish! Perish. Don't do that."

Hasan asking his viewer to "die" was met with widespread backlash on the r/LivestreamFail Reddit community. Some, like u/SkyrimSlag, who jokingly referred to the CollarGate controversy by calling HasanAbi "Electro," claimed that others had been banned on the platform in the past for similar or less-serious infractions:

"Didn’t Tectone get a ban for telling a viewer to die? But let me guess, Electro over here will shockingly get away with this, too," said u/SkyrimSlag.

"Erobb got a 30-day ban for jokingly saying he will fight one of his viewers in offline chat," said u/Uusukkeli123.

Others called the streamer "fragile" and wondered why his fanbase entertains him.

"After what we’ve seen these past 2 months, he’s definitely fragile. I didn't even know who this guy was until he shocked his dog, lmao. But after seeing clip, after clip, I really don't understand why someone would want to even sub to this fool," said u/DobbyDaCat.

"What an absolute miserable piece of sh*t this guy is. It is genuinely beyond comprehension that people voluntarily watch this guy," said u/AliceLunar.

Like other netizens, streamer Felix "xQc," who has consistently been critical of HasanAbi, suggested that his fellow platform member violated Twitch's Terms of Service (ToS):

"This is absolutely ToS. People have gotten banned consistently for telling people sh*t like that, over and over again. It is an absolute, clear, rule-break that most people would get banned for, 100%... but, let's be honest, Hasan is kinda the, yeah..."

In other news, HasanAbi responded to being snubbed for The Streamer Awards 2025 by saying he’d had his "most impactful" year yet and suggested his omission might have been due to AT&T allegedly blacklisting him.
