Hasan Piker was recently on The Ebro, Laura, & Rosenberg Show, where he discussed his political views and some of his past controversies. It was here where he got to speak about Israel & Palestine, as well as Leftist politics in the United States.
At one point in the interview, Piker and Ebro brought up DJ Akademiks. Of course, Ak and Ebro are not exactly friendly with one another. Meanwhile, Akademiks has gone down a right-wing pipeline over the last few years, which puts him at odds with Piker. In fact, he and Piker had a debate a couple of years ago about Socialism.
Piker went so far as to say that DJ Akademiks was one of his "opps." He mentioned him alongside other streamers like Adin Ross, who also have a right-wing slant to their politics.
Akademiks caught wind of these comments and delivered a response on stream last night. As you can imagine, he wasn't particularly friendly towards the streamer and political activist.

DJ Akademiks Talks About Hasan Piker
Akademiks made it clear that he and Hasan barely know each other, and as a result, the term "opp" shouldn't even be in Piker's lexicon. Furthermore, Ak stated that he has no interest in being "opps" with anyone political. He subsequently told Piker to "go look at Charlie Kirk" if he wanted an example of real political consequences.
These are all fairly harsh comments, although they are by no means rare for DJ Akademiks. In fact, Akademiks has been a lot more volatile towards his enemies in the past. Clearly, he has no interest in beefing with Hasan over the long haul.
While DJ Akademiks is, first and foremost, a music commentator, there is no doubt that he has gotten political. He has interviewed Donald Trump Jr. and has even been a guest at Mar-A-Lago. With that being said, it only makes sense that Piker would be opposed to Ak's worldview.
