xQc has taken aim at Hasan Piker, accusing the political streamer of pushing inflammatory content without ever typing it himself.
xQSc called out what he described as a sneaky pattern. According to the streamer, Hasan won’t post certain spicy material directly on his own account, but he will retweet it, like it, and “promote it all the time.”
The core of the accusation is about plausible deniability. xQc argues that Hasan keeps his own timeline relatively clean while still signal-boosting messaging he agrees with through engagement on other people’s posts.
The quiet part loud
Hasan, the Twitch-leading political commentator and former Young Turks contributor, is no stranger to this kind of heat. His coverage of Israel-Palestine, U.S. foreign policy, and rival creators has made his social media activity a constant target for critics, who often dig through his engagement history for signs of endorsement.
xQc isn’t usually planted in the left-versus-right streamer war, which is part of why the call-out landed harder than the usual Destiny or Ethan Klein swipe. His audience is massive and mostly tuned in for variety content and drama, not politics.
Hasan hasn’t publicly responded to xQc’s comments yet. Whether he addresses it on stream or brushes it off as another conspiracy against him remains to be seen.
