Maybe this is because I'm not a Hasan watcher but all this "he's doing more than any of you critics and complainers" and "you're just mad because he's better looking / richer etc" reminds me of the kind of glazing that goes on in any cult of personality.. not that Hasan's politics are anywhere near as bad as Musk's obviously, but it does remind me of the kind of glazing that Elon stans do.

There's an element of classism too, like you can't critique your betters because you weren't born with the family resources and connections that you get from being born moderately wealthy. Like excuse me if I'm not well positioned enough to talk to a million people online every day, but I think "progressive" streamers should not be glossing over AOC and Bernie's social fascism, (EDIT) for example.

And yes I am aware that Hasan is always raising money for based causes and that's awesome, he should keep doing that. I'll keep criticizing his liberal and reactionary tendencies though. This "you only criticize Hasan because you think you're too cool for school and nothing ever happens, you only criticize because you're an edgelord" BS is gross and childish, tbh.
