I'm surprised by Hasan Piker's conviction against Vote Blue No Matter Who (hexbear.net)

Apologies in advance for further inundating everybody's headspace with celebrity slop, but I wanted to blab about this:

I generally have no faith in public personalities to hold any convictions at all, so it has been refreshing for Hasan to adhere to his position against voting for Gruesome Newscum. I don't at all mean to imply that he's perfect, or that people should look to him as a leader in any respect, it's just nice to see something like that happening and getting broad exposure. Feels good.

If you want Marxist theory explained to you in a video format, Hakim and JT Chapman already do a much better job of that. Does Hasan understand the culture of AES countries well enough to present their history or political systems as effectively as Luna Oi, Lady Izdihar, or Yugopnik? Will he provide a more informed economic analysis than Michael Hudson or Richard Wolff? Is he going to be more detailed than Ben Norton at covering current affairs from an anti-imperialist perspective? Can he put together a news program as good as Breakthrough News?

a lot of these names are new to me; which platforms do you follow them on?

You can find all of them on youtube, JT Chapman runs the Second thought channel and Ben Norton runs Geopolitical Economy Report, all the others can be found by simply typing the names/pseudonyms given by the above comment.
