HasanAbi Responds to Backlash on the Trash Taste Podcast
After reading some of the comments on his video with the Trash Taste team, Hasan called out the netizens. He claimed that the internet was out of touch and was brigading against him. The streamer then asked his viewers to “actively counter” the brigade. The video on YouTube had a dislike ratio of over 49 percent and currently has over 17K likes.
“The brigade is on folks. Get in and actively counter the brigade.”
HasanAbi is actively criticized by several netizens, including Ethan Klein, who posted a “content nuke” video. The streamer also addressed a fan comment that called him “out of touch.” He stated that the commenter made assumptions that Hasan was out of touch because the expected retaliation does not match the reality. Hasan argued that he was not out of touch because several political journalist cover him in a positive way.
“The assumption that you as a random commenter is not out of touch, but I am because what you expect in terms of like retaliation towards someone like myself is not matching the reality is hilarious.”
