    Man I don’t really want to get up to speed on this but hasan seems like such a goddamn narcissist and fraud. He could use his influence, wealth, etc to run some real interference but what do we get, some tweets and comments of luke warm support?

    Also it really pisses me off how often this guy talks about how much money he raised for Palestine or other charities, but it’s never his money. Can’t challenge his millionaire content creator model tho, look at all the charity HE did. In fact you should be like him and run the resistance from twitter, and if you do go out be very passive and politely leave when they ask you to.

      have you seen yugopnik idea of the funnel into leftist rhetoric?

      i think this guy’s target audience is the libs tbh, trying to not scare the libs off while leading them to radical rheotoric - it works, alot of people at the pro pal protests know who hasanabi is, and i know that the brasil communist party are doing something similar to hasanabi streaming to polarise the youth

        funnel into leftist rhetoric

        Like yeah, if you’re on Hexbear Hasan is just an entertaining streamer himbo, for some liberal he could be their first “Palestinians are people actually” voice. You are supposed to move past him into more radical people, or god forbid, reading scared

      meh, he’s the youth engagement wing of western leftism. he recognizes if he rocks the boat too much, he loses access to the platforms that enable him to do his work. his influence is all online and his wealth is tenuous, what meaningful interference could he possibly run?

      This take is so corny. He’s donated his own money to a lot of causes. But even if he didn’t who cares. Charity from a lib to left pipeline newshead doesn’t matter. Like at all. Getting thousands of people to support Palestine with their own money actually matters

        Oh he donated .01% of his streamer money cool cool yeah and its totally hasan getting people to support not people who would support hasan or not donating. This is exactly my problem, he shouldn’t be taking credit for that.
