Destiny went after Hasan Piker during a recent livestream, calling him a “fake revolutionary” who refuses to attend public events. To drive his point home, Destiny played an old editorial video of Hasan from 2017.
The video in question was made for Schön! Magazine, a UK-based fashion publication. In the dramatic piece, Hasan delivers lines about “the age of mediocracy” and celebrity culture while styled in high-fashion aesthetics. The video predates Hasan’s streaming career and was part of a standard fashion editorial shoot.
Destiny’s main criticism focused on Hasan’s recent decisions to skip public appearances, like the upcoming Twitchcon 2025. According to Destiny, Hasan claims safety concerns prevent him from attending events, which Destiny sees as evidence that Hasan isn’t committed to revolutionary action.
The two streamers have a long history of public disagreements. Destiny, known for his debate content and political commentary, frequently targets other creators he views as hypocritical. Hasan, a left-leaning political commentator who rose to fame on Twitch, has been one of his regular targets for years.
Hasan has previously stated he feels unsafe at certain events due to threats and security concerns. Many streamers across different political views have reported similar issues, with conventions and public debates requiring increased security measures in recent years.
