In a late stream on February 8, Twitch star Hasan "HasanAbi" lashed out at critics in the wake of raising hundreds of thousands of dollars in charity for the Turkey-Syria earthquake victims. The streamer was clearly frustrated with the response from many people online who appeared to be attacking the fundraiser.Hasan himself is of Turkish origin, and pushed back against the claim that he was raising money for clout by explaining how some people will find any reason pile hate on him:"What? You went from, 'Hasan you don't do f*cking charity you f*cking piece of sh*t. Use your gazillions of dollars.' To- 'Hasan you only do charities'? What? 'You're doing it for clout' When I was doing it privately, I didnt do it or I was lying about doing it. When I do it publicly, I'm doing it for f*cking clout."It is worth mentioning that the ongoing fundrasier had raised almost $1 million at the time of this outburst. Hours prior to this proclamation on stream, HasanAbi took to his alternate Twitter account to address the same phenomenon of people giving him a hard time. He insinuated that he was "legitimately" thinking about quitting due to the "psychos" criticizing the charity event.Piker's tweet about quitting from his alternate account (Image via Twitter)"Keep changing lives": Reactions to HasanAbi's recent posts about criticism on his Turkey-Syria earthquake fundraiserIt has been reported that severe earthquakes in Syria and Turkey have devastated entire cities and killed thousands of people, with the death toll continuing to rise days after the event.
