Psychiatrist and streamer Dr. Alok Kanojia revealed during a recent HealthyGamerGG broadcast that several content creators have privately expressed fear of HasanAbi‘s online community.
Dr. K stated that “some creators” he has worked with are “really scared” of Hasan Piker’s audience. He emphasized these were private conversations from his professional work with creators. He didn’t name anyone.
The statement came with multiple disclaimers. Dr. K repeatedly told viewers he wasn’t condemning Hasan or taking sides in any dispute. He warned against clipping the segment out of context and urged people not to dogpile anyone involved.
Dr. K’s broader point centered on how large streamer communities can mobilize quickly and create fear among smaller creators. He discussed how this dynamic affects who feels safe speaking publicly about controversial topics or high-profile figures.
The fear Dr. K described reflects a known pattern in streaming. Creators sometimes avoid criticizing peers with massive audiences due to concerns about harassment, reputation damage, and the mental toll of dealing with coordinated dogpiles.
Dr. K made clear his comments focused on community behavior and creator psychology, not on Hasan personally directing any harassment. His warning about context and clipping suggested concern that the statement itself could fuel the exact dynamic he was describing.
