Hasan Piker is one of the biggest streamers on Twitch, which is quite the accomplishment because the platform was originally for gamers, but he does political commentary. With over 2.2 million followers on Twitch, 1.1 million on Twitter, and 1 million on YouTube, he has quite the influence. He’s a hardcore “eat the rich” type pro-socialist leftist, but he’s not who he appears to be.
I dunno, this is why we can have critical support. I am critical on some of his stances/behavior like being wealthy or engaging in reactionary behavior, but I do support his part in being a better access point to leftism than many other online figures. Do I think he's problematic sometimes? Yes. Do I think he's someone to criticize first? No.
