Twitch streamer Félix “xQc” Lengyel has once again stirred discussion in the streaming community after commenting on Hasan Piker’s public image and how appearance may shape his popularity. In a recent clip shared on X by user @Awk20000, xQc suggested that the media and audiences treat Hasan more favorably because of his looks, claiming that similar behavior from others would draw far harsher criticism. His statement has sparked widespread debate online about privilege, public perception, and double standards within the creator space.
In the viral clip, xQc said, “If he wasn’t conventionally attractive, he’d be outcast… come on bruh, why even say that?” The comment came as part of a broader critique of how Hasan handles public controversies, and how audiences often overlook questionable remarks because of his appearance and reputation. xQc implied that Hasan’s charisma and looks help shield him from the kind of backlash other creators might face, reigniting a long-standing conversation about bias and influencer favoritism on social platforms.

xQc’s remarks quickly gained traction, with viewers divided over his take. Supporters argued that he voiced an uncomfortable truth about the entertainment industry, that attractiveness often influences credibility and tolerance levels. Critics, however, accused xQc of taking an unnecessary personal jab at Hasan, claiming that popularity in streaming relies more on content quality and consistency than appearance.
Fan responses mirrored the divide. One viewer wrote, “If Hasan looked like Asmongold and said the same stuff he says, he’d lose half his audience and probably grift to the right.”
Another added, “I think he’s only popular because of his outlandish views on BS… his whole channel is just rage bait.” These reactions reflect a broader frustration over what many perceive as media bias and selective outrage in the streamer community.
xQc’s comments have once again put Twitch’s biggest personalities under scrutiny, fueling ongoing debates about bias, branding, and how perception affects accountability. While Hasan Piker has not directly responded, the discourse continues to trend across social platforms. For many viewers, the incident highlights a growing question within streaming culture, does appearance really decide who gets criticized and who gets a pass?
