“It’s wild how the internet chooses villains. I do my best to be a good person every day and of course I have flaws. I don’t know what people want from me.”
Hasan certainly isn’t one to shy away from his critics and is always ready to fire back if need be. He’s also still one of themost popular streamers on Twitch, regardless of what he describes as these attempts to cancel him.
