    Hasan, Elon and Ubisoft… what is this, a shit triangle?

    no doubt, i rank im way higher than elmo.

    idk how one can fall for this disingenuous fuckface.

    you know who was disingenuous a moment ago? you.

    wouldnt go as far as saying that hasan is a decent human being

    Why? just to be clear decent doesnt mean you have to like him, it doesnt mean he is perfect. it just means he generally stands for whats good. he is a good person. its not really a high bar to clear.

    decent, adjective

    1.
    conforming with generally accepted standards of respectable or moral behaviour.
    "a decent clean-living individual"
    

    i hope you realize how much right wing propaganda has gotten to you. if you really care, you should watch hasan’s interview with novara media.

    And if you think he doesnt do enough, well he recently went to a bernie/aoc rally and streamed the entire rally to 50k+ viewers. he has done fund raisers for good causes. he went to union protests to raise awareness. many other things that i dont remember right now. thats on top of the positive political commentary he does, in a space that is almost completely dominated by right wingers. you dont have to completely agree with him to realize he is a genuine force for good.

      Wait, did you seriously create an account just to fanboy for Hasan - the champagne socialist, literal piracy supporter, and tankie? Wow, this is really pathetic.

      tbh not in the mood to argue with you about it. if your a hasan fan. fair enough. i’m not. as i said i dont consider him as bad as elon, not even in the same ball park. but i still consider him shit. i was even subscribed to him a few years ago. i’ve seen enough first hand. my views on him arent filtered through takes of others.

      so i was about to give you the win by going silent and just leave it be.

      but:

      i hope you realize how much right wing propaganda has gotten to you.

      fuck off. get bent. posted as a leftist.

        Not who you responded to, but can you share why you don’t like Hasan? I’ve mostly just seen clips of him talking with AOC and Bernie and when he covered the writer’s strike. I don’t know much about him and his content otherwise so I’m wondering if there’s more I should know?

          Champagne socialist, supports piracy on innocent people, tankie - criticizes Christianity and American imperialism but supports Islam and China’s imperialism.

          All sorts of problematic.

          Not the guy. I’ve watched a decent bit of Hasan and if you only listen to what he says, not examine what he does or who he does it for, then he probably seems like a champion for leftist causes.

          That being said, he works for Night Media and definitely does not put his money where his mouth is. I personally dislike the hypocrisy.

            What’s night media? Also what do you mean he doesn’t put his money where his mouth is? Does he donate to Trump or something?

              Night media is a talent agency that was associated with Mr. Beast (you know, during his most popular years) and is still associated with Asmongold (you know, propaganda pointed at young men).

              Hasan Piker is the son of a billionaire from Turkey. While I don’t know the specifics of how much money he’s received from him, if any, that doesn’t really matter. The man is a multi millionaire who has made his money on a platform that is absolutely riddled with propaganda mouthpieces. Many people do not see an issue with this, I do.

              He also really loves to claim he’s a socialist, yet is a multi millionaire (after buying him and his family a 2.7 million dollar home in L.A.). Too many things don’t add up for me, so I stopped watching him.

              All that being said, idk what’s in his heart of hearts. He might not be a bad guy, I might be assuming the worst. Make of it what you will.
