I disagree with Hasan on a lot but putting him in the same camp as fucking Vaush is just cruel.
-
Or 'Sexpestiny' too, lol. The two most repulsive beings ever to be considered slightly left.
-
Wasnt Hasan just platforming a nazi with a totenkompf tattoo who bragged about killing hundreds of people in the middle east?
-
The main “issue” with Hasan is that his goal isn’t to be principled and correct, it’s to push liberals towards more principled and correct politics. This means he will always find himself in scenarios like his support for that politician, who is basically a socdem with a very iffy past. In the context of American politics, however, that particular politician is actually pretty radical.

I'm not even from the states but this increased my blood pressure lol
"Maybe if we keep expressing confidence in them they will change!" 🤡

"They have to realize we only voted for them because we need them to do a complete 180 on their politics"

meh i don't wanna see any of these faces, even criticism of them is too much profile
-
why does explaining that you don't have a parasocial relationship with streamers net you some doots.
-
it's kinda sad how hot of a take it is to so many people.

In no way, shape, or form is Hasan a "vote blue no matter who" guy. Criticise him for something real 😭

Which Democrat candidate in the past 5-10 elections has he advocated against voting for?
-
I mean, last i checked you need to advocate for them in order to be a "VBNMW". I don't think he advocated for harris for example. I believe his position is usually that he doesn't judge you if you vote or don't vote and at least for last presidential election he also didn't tell us who he voted for so he is not even influencing anyone by his choice.
I feel like him talking positively about a thing that a democrat said gets often misinterpreted as him advocating for that democrat full on.

Putting Hassan there is crazy 😭. He’s by no means an open Marxist but he doesn’t attack those to the left of him (like the other two do) and he has a generally more anti-imperialist worldview (ie portraying china semi-positively or defending Ansar Allahs anti imperialist struggle or condemning the US’s militarism in Latin America) while the other two fall in lockstep with the state department line. You can’t expect the masses to just accept principled Marxist analysis from the get go. There needs to be someone in-between who holds their hand and meets them where they are.
