K9/11

Hasan's dog—Fish; and Will Neff's dog—Kaya.

Above is the r/place canvas before the Daliban attack. Below is the canvass after the attack, with a Hungarian flag and blue letter "D" covering where Fish once was.

"My-my dog who died. Uh—that I love. Uh, You-you-you eviscerated it. Off the map. You did it reddit. You did it. You killed it." — Hasan Piker

K9/11 was a false flag attack that remains one of the most well-known operations conducted by the Daliban during the 2022 r/place event. The name is a portmanteau of K-9 and the 9/11 ) terrorist attacks; unlike 9/11, Hasan will never forget.

The event consisted of:

• Daliban super-soldiers capturing the territory by blotting out with a Hungarian flag (in reference to Hasan's distaste for Viktor Orban—the Hungarian PM)
• Claiming credit for the attack—via a blue letter D—albeit after HasanAbi spies had already reported that the Daliban had carried out the attack, and Hasan observing first hand that one of the pixel-placers was a regular r/destiny user.
• Hasan getting big mad about a pixel version of his real, dead dog—dying again before his very eyes.

Hasan Reaction

Hasan was quick to morally grandstand about his pixel dog dying:

"Yeah, whatever. I don't care, I don't care. It's literally pixels. Okay, it's pixels. And you did it. You fucking killed it. You have the biggest dick. Fucking pathetic losers man." — Hasan Piker

Of course, neither Hasan nor his audience saw the incredible irony in decrying the pixeling-over of his dead dog for moral brownie points while simultaneously saying "it's pixels, it's not that big" and that "I don't care. I don't care."

Hasan remains mad to this day, and still brings K9/11 up to impugn Destiny as a psychopath who kills dead dogs.

r/place backlash

A Crime Against Nature

On Reddit, many were quick to decry Destiny's actions as morally reprehensible. An r/place thread was posted (entitled This is honestly a crime against nature) in which Hasan fans and dog-lovers have intense agreements about how much of a deranged lunatic it must take to replace a pixel dog (in a special event about placing pixels.)
