The Republican National Convention in Texas made an odd choice to flash Hasan Piker's underwear photos in their jumbotron, and it backfired.

      I’m legitimately not sure whether, as Hasan Piker, I’d feel more like I’d made it (to some extent you can judge a person by the quality of their enemies) or if I’d worry more about stochastic terrorism.

        I’ve watched some of Hasan’s reactions to this, and it mostly just seems like he thinks the RNC is sad and obsessed with him. He doesn’t need their attention and he’s certainly not afraid of them
