Ethan Klein MoistCr1TiKaL Hasan response

by Silvestre: Hasan Piker

Ethan Klein reacts to the fallout from MoistCr1TiKaL's video, addressing the criticism from Hasan's community and clarifying his own positions. He expresses appreciation for the coverage despite disagreements and asks Charlie to consider what it's like to endure three years of attacks from the same people who got to him after just one day. "We actually ended up talking about it a fair bit and he agreed to read a statement I wrote. I thought it was all nice and fair. People are entitled to disagree with me. I knew a lot of people would, and that's totally fine. What's interesting is that he wasn't picking a side. Our fans were very reasonable. But you can imagine Hasan and people like that, the snarkverse that infests Twitter and Reddit , they were enraged that he didn't completely shit on me. He definitely disagreed with me, but it wasn't enough to just disagree. They require complete fealty." "Destiny said this in a chat, in a fleeting moment, and immediately afterwards he made it clear. The point wasn't really put out there as a serious accusation. Snark took this and turned it into a whole snark talking point, put it all over Reddit and Twitter. Ian, being an active member of that community, decided it would be a good idea to further broadcast it for two hours. Although Ian starts by saying 'I don't believe it,' he also hedges it by saying 'but I think it's a heavy accusation that's worth reacting to.'" "About three seconds he says 'I don't believe it,' for a two-hour broadcast. The vast majority of people who see this on Reddit, TikTok, whatever, they're not going to see that. I truly do believe that snark and his intention is to cause harm to my family, knowing that CPS came to our house already. He meant to cause harm to my family. Would anybody be surprised if CPS came to my house again?" "I don't think Charlie is intentionally doing this, but he's underplaying a little bit of what Ian did and the context of it and what all happened. By the way, I am not mad at Charlie. Quite the opposite, he was super fair. I thought he was as thoughtful as he could be given the context he has. It's a lot. It would take me a lot to explain all this shit." "By the way, I don't know Destiny at all. Ian, on the other hand, was my friend for many years, met my kids. When he puts something like that on stream, it carries credibility compared to Destiny, which makes it worse in my opinion." "They're kind of doing that when Charlie feels compelled to put out a second video. Even sharing a shred of empathy, even though he ultimately disagrees, it wasn't enough. So he goes on Twitter, Reddit, and sees people losing their fucking minds, calling him this and that, including Hasan. So he's compelled to make a second video. I do think it's interesting that after one day of Charlie dealing with the same people who have been harassing us since October 7, 2023, after one day they clearly got to him. Imagine if those same people who got to Charlie after one day spent three years relentlessly trying to ruin everything about you , saying you kill babies, molest your own children, your children are eating dog shit, sending human skulls, and also messing with my extended family, my employees. Three years of this stuff nonstop." "In our chat right now, our subreddit, everyone's response was super reasonable. Versus when he goes on Twitter, other Reddit communities, he's an enemy now just because he expressed a little empathy for CPS coming.
