xQc went after HasanAbi during a recent stream over how the political streamer has handled the ongoing controversy surrounding his dog Kaya and an e-collar.
A clip that spread across streaming communities showed xQc accusing Hasan of sending friends and associates to publicly defend him on an issue that’s impossible to win. Then when those defenders catch heat, Hasan leaves them hanging.
The controversy centers on clips and images showing Hasan’s dog wearing an e-collar. Viewers identified the device model and pointed out that it includes shock capability alongside other modes like vibration and tone alerts. Whether Hasan actually used the shock function on stream remains disputed and unverified.
Ludwig became a flashpoint in the drama after stating on his channel that the collar in question is shock-capable. He stopped short of claiming Hasan definitely shocked the dog, saying he couldn’t confirm that from available footage.
That measured take still drew criticism from some in Hasan’s community. xQc’s comments appeared to defend Ludwig’s right to state verifiable product information without being vilified for it.
xQc also highlighted what he sees as a double standard in moderation. He claimed Hasan previously demanded that other streamers crack down on hostile behavior in their chats. Now Hasan’s own community aggressively defends him against critics like Ludwig, and xQc argues Hasan isn’t applying the same moderation standards he once insisted others follow.
Hasan has not directly responded to xQc’s specific accusations about leaving friends exposed. The e-collar debate continues to generate heated discussion across streaming platforms, with no signs of resolution.
