I watched Hassan become famous and his dishonest imbecility is about the only consistent feature of his character.
Comment on Hee Hee Ho Ho Ha Ha
LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 month agoWow it’s almost like it’s impossible to have 100% consistency across 12 hours a day of talking…

Is there some in depth (3000 word+) article about this? I’ve literally never seen him be dishonest about stuff. I don’t watch him that much.
bearboiblake@pawb.social 1 month ago
I watch his streams pretty regularly and he’s extremely consistent. I’d say he’s consistent to a fault, even. He has a LOT of haters who tend to be a bit… obsessive, to put it charitably.

No idea. I could write a lot about Hassan, but it’s not worth my time and it’s faster to relegate his fans to Trump supporter status.
LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 month ago
Do you have such a small world view that hasan fans integer underflow to trump supporter?

Coming from a guy that can’t even spell his name right, smh.
Leomas@lemmy.world 1 month ago
He’s consistenty a fucking tool in certain opinions and continues to double-down on the worst takes. Also an animal abuser.
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Anyone here calling Piker an animal abuser is either someone who’s been fooled by grifters, or an absolutely gross liar.
See video for yourself here : www.youtube.com/shorts/dqexB1-3TOA
Why are people hating on this guy? GREAT QUESTION.
Well, you see - there’s a bunch of really gross right wingers who hate him, as well as grifting streamers (including some sex pests who have gotten into ACTUAL trouble) who don’t like this specific commentator who’ve tried to discredit him and in a moment where the guy’s very well-treated and absolutely beloved dog apparently hurt her paw or something and they were able to edit out of context, intentionally misinterpret, and then convince their hordes of followers to make memes of the moment and share everywhere and comment in every thread mentioning the guy.
You don’t have to take my word for it.
There are plenty of other left-wing and even just centrist types, like Medhi Hasan, the Pod Johns, Kyle Kulinski, Sam Seder and his crew at the Majority Report all vouch for the guy. Hell, even Zohran Mamdani and AOC vouch for Hasan Piker.
Leomas@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Hey, nice copy-pasta. I don’t care for your argument of authority. That dog was not having a good time staying in place for hours. In Europe we might care about animal welfare a bit more, than y’all do.
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
lol, please you gotta tell us all - which one are you a fan of?
Ethan, Destiny, Asmongold, or some other half-wit grifter?

What you care about doesn’t matter, you are completely full of shit
conartistpanda@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Hey, I won’t deny right wing grifters will do shady shit to get a left streamer down and that the whole thing is a campaign against him, I want to make clear I’m not one of them, I’m a mere spectator who’s never seen Hassan aside from this drama, so I will ask IN GOOD FAITH because I’m having a hard time wrapping my mind around this so please have some patience.
When the whole collar thing happened there were various clues pointing the collar was a shock one with tape on where the prongs were. There was also a stream in which the controller of either the vibration or shock collar showed up on a table (sorry for not providing links but I’m tired right now, I’ll trust you’ve seen the clips I’m talking about), then there was another clip in which the dog’s collar emitted a light, people argued it was a reflection but reflections don’t stay for multiple frames like that without completely freezing the dog (as far as I know). Then on the pictures we see the collar having a screw only the shock version has.
Shock: electro-collares.es/…/e-collar-educator-et-300 Vibration: www.electro-collares.es/…/e-collar-pg-300 www.reedog.es/…/e-collar-pg-300
I would post the pictures myself but I can’t, if you think I’m making shit up I’ll do it but for now I’ll count on you having seen this evidence.
My point is, if Hassan had shown the collar the dog had during the stream none of this discussion would exist, but by be pictures It totally looks like he tried to lie people pretending he was not using a shocking collar, and if that is the case I’m not trusting a person who lies their public like that. If you insist he didn’t then tell me where I’m wrong. Are the pictures fake or edited? Is the collar model different from the ones shown? Is there a fallacy in my logic? etc. From my point of view no one seemed to acknowledge the evidence pictures back then.
Also, there was a lot of goal-posting when defending Hassan while some said he never shocked the dog, some said they did but it didn’t matter. From the point of view of an outsider It looks like fans defending questionable actions from their fav streamer. You can tell me that the dog doesn’t act like they’re being abused and I’ll believe you, but beyond that the point remains. Did Hassan actually shock the dog then lie about it? Trust and transparency is important for me when it comes to judge a stranger.
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Did you watch the full unedited video of the supposed “shock” including before and after?
Did you see the video of Hasan debunking it? Did anything Hasan said in this debunking come across as seemingly shady or obvious bullshit?
Did you see the video compilation of Hasan loving on the dog a bunch?
Do you see any videos that anyone has been able to find where he reaches with his hand toward her or raises his hand where she winces in fear - in a way that a dog who is hit often by its owner does?
Any other video in the 3 years he’s had her where you can find any other obvious self-evident proof of abuse? Another moment where the dog cried out in pain or fear?
No one should ask you to ignore anything, but the fact that you’re scrutinizing whether or not the collar is a shock collar that was swapped out secretly or that he had someone make edits to a video of seems like far more of a stretch than maybe just the idea that some assholes hate the guy and can’t otherwise come up with any legitimate criticisms and figure this was an opportunity to jump in on… don’t you think?
Chippys_mittens@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I saw him kick his dog with steel toe boots
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Do you have a source for this?
Honestly, it’s so easy to attach a link to anything you comment - so the only reason not to is if you lack the evidence to back up a claim.
Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 1 month ago
No you didn’t
null@piefed.nullspace.lol 1 month ago
Lmaooooo your proof that Hasan didn’t shock his dog is a Hasan video??
That plus the “sex pest” line shows just how deep you are in Hasan’s ass. Truly cringe.
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
So you’re a Destiny fan - got it. 🤣
Look… it’s all right.
Destiny did an awesome takedown of JonTron (who I also once liked in the OG Game Grumps days) being racist a long time ago and he has teamed up with his own former fan Vaush against some actual fascists so I don’t absolutely hate the guy… but seeing you come to his defense when I bring up any of the accusations that have been made against the dude let me know where you stand.
Destiny has dog shit opinions in a lot of cases, someone I like having as an ally against the worst people on the internet, but Jesus Christ does he let his personal vendettas completely guide his political compass.
null@piefed.nullspace.lol 1 month ago
Also nice cherry pick. Gee, I wonder why you didn’t go with something more recent…
JDPoZ@lemmy.world 1 month ago
😄 yeah Hasan seems really doomed now from his joking heartbreak resulting from Mamdani needing to distance himself from a streamer so non-terminally online people don’t freak out at the old “America Deserved 9-11” meme clip.
Meanwhile, again I ask you - any thoughts on Mr. Barelli’s use of the n-word, and his really problematic 29yr:16yr olds sex comment I keep trying to get a reply on?
LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 month ago
Source on all that?
Leomas@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Literally everything he’s said on Russia’s war in Ukraine. His worship of China. Animal abuse due to a powered (both electric shocks and vibrations are immoral imo) collar. Being an authoritarian cock-sucker generally.
LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 month ago
What has he said about the Ukraine war?
