	[https://wiki.destiny.gg/view/Hasan_Piker#Hasan_and_Destiny_debate_breaking_news On January 7, 2019] Destiny and Hasan debated the ethicality of reporting on breaking news and the roles of journalists and commentators in shaping public perception. Hasan, after reporting a [https://www.vox.com/identities/2019/1/10/18175589/jazmine-barnes-shooting-houston-texas-race%7C recent shooting] may have been racially charged, was accused of "race-baiting" after more information was released revealing that the shooting was in fact gang-related, and not a hate crime. Hasan felt this criticism was unwarranted, claiming he was merely working with the facts he had at the time, and that he could not wait for more facts to come out as it would be to the detriment of his job. Destiny took issue with this, arguing it was irresponsible of Hasan to cover the shooting before more information was released. Moreover, Destiny argued that Hasan should have avoided constructing a narrative around hate crimes, pointing to the hypocrisy Hasan would show if a right-leaning commentator speculated about Arabs following a bombing.

 Throughout his career, Piker has been involved in several controversies, often stemming from his outspoken political views. In 2019, he faced backlash for comments made during a Twitch stream about the September 11 attacks and "brave" Mujahideen soldiers "fuck[ing] {{wiki|Dan Crenshaw||'s}} eyehole with their dicks". Piker later apologized for the remarks, stating that they were "inappropriate and offensive."

Piker has gained a large following for his outspoken views on progressive politics and social issues.

	Hasan’s first appearance on [[Destiny]]’s stream occurred on October 8th, 2018 to discuss an upcoming debate with [[Charlie Kirk]] and laude Destiny for his prior debate performances against the right. Following this appearance, Hasan became a temporary fixture of Destiny’s streams, and a friend. His initial appearances focused primarily on the burgeoning online-right movement and various economic/political theory. Hasan would frequently join Destiny on podcasts, occasionally IRL stream with him at restaurants and bars, and would regularly appear on Destiny's stream to play games or discuss current controversial issues. Over time, Hasan's limited debate experience, ideological differences with Destiny (primarily concerning left-wing thought), and struggles processing criticism from both Destiny and his community, eventually strained their relationship to the point where the two streamers cut ties with one another.
