Lefty influencer Hasan Piker is gloating after his Twitch streaming account was reinstated in just 24 hours following his suspension for suggesting last week’s murder of two Israeli diplomats at the Jewish museum in Washington, DC, resembled a “false flag” operation.
The streamer and Democrat darling took to X seemingly to confirm that his suspension for “Improper Handling of Terrorist Propaganda” had been brought to an end.
The post, repurposing a popular meme, shows a picture of a man in a hospital bed with a text bubble underneath.

Piker took to social media to gloat after he was reinstated. Instagram/@hasandpiker“I lived bitch,” the text reads.
The suspension appeared to have been lifted just over a day after it was brought in, according to the automated X account StreamerBans.
While Piker’s supporters were overjoyed at his reinstatement, others slammed the actions of Twitch for amounting to little more than a slap on the wrist.
“1 day ban for terrorist-related stuff. Stay classy Twitch,” one Reddit user wrote on the r/LivestreamFail Subreddit.
“No, Hasan isn’t a journalist, he’s a propagandist in his own words,” the user added.”They banned him during his day off, so the ban means nothing. What a joke, Twitch,” a second Reddit user added.
“24-hour suspensions serve no purpose and act more often as a reward than punishment through the extra attention they create,” rival Twitch streamer Asmongold wrote on X, sparking a response from Piker.
Yaron LIschinsky and Sarah Milgrim were murdered outside the DC Jewish museum last week. Obtained by NYPost.“Disgusting little creature,” Piker branded Asmongold.
Twitch did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
Piker, who streams on Twitch to his 2.8 million followers, sparked outrage over the weekend when he claimed the deaths of two Israeli Embassy staffers last Wednesday had all the hallmarks of a “false flag operation,” a term used for an action staged to look as if it was carried out by a different group to pin the blame on them.
“I’m not ‘Mr. False Flag’ at all, but, like, every single thing that [Rodriguez] did in the aftermath of the shooting is so f–king crazy that it’s like, you could not have designed a f–king incident like this,” he said.
“You could not have decided a better false flag incident like this,” he said in the live stream, which was also shared to his 1.6 million YouTube followers on Friday.
On Sunday, he shared a shirtless video of himself on Sunday discussing the ban.
