Last night, Asmongold shared his take on the ongoing debate on streamer Frogan and her comments about Twitch streamer Ludwig Ahgren. Asmon made his viewers understand that he does not support Frogan in her behavior and called her a “moron”.
During his live stream, he then added that Hasan and his community are further “radicalizing the community against” themselves by doubling down on her statements on Ludwig. Just yesterday, streamer xQc called out Hasan for defending Frogan after she used racial slurs against the streamer. It seems like the streaming community is turning on Frogan on this topic.
Frogan has found a loyal defender in fellow streamer Hasan. But Asmongold isn’t buying their excuses. He’s calling out what he perceives as a double standard, questioning why Frogan gets a free pass while others get dragged for far less.
Towards his Fans Asmongold worried that the extreme views of streamers like Frogan and Hasan could backfire, driving moderate viewers away with their stubbornness.
Despite the controversies, Frogan and Hasan are still getting a lot of support from their own community. And that raises some big questions about the role of platforms like Twitch and YouTube and how to moderate these communities in the future.
