He somehow seems to think, still, that he can shape the Democrats. "If I thought there was a viable 3rd party do you think I would be voting for them? Fuck no" he says, after scolding someone in his chat, calling them an ultra, for calling him out for his continued connection to the democrats.
But lets think about this for a second...
how the fuck
do you build
a fucking party
do you do it by voting for, another party
do you do it by telling people to vote for another party
or do you do it by building A FUCKING WORKING CLASS PARTY
LIKE FUCKING LENIN SAID
I don't really understand what Hasan thinks these Democrats are supposed to "DO" in this situation. "They're not DOING it!" he yells. What is "IT"? Go against their class interests, defy the fundamental laws of capital and somehow break free of their social relations through pure force of will? His proximity to the Democratic Party is what breeds this weird fucking obsession he has.
"These guys are mad because they talk to ME and not their Pedo sex cult leader, that's why they're mad". What if they didn't talk to you, though? What if tomorrow they just stopped talking to you at all? What if the only reason they talk to you AT ALL is that they know that you have a huge fucking audience, and you are actually effective at moving people to the left? So instead, they give you cookies and treats, they give you access and interviews, they let you into the DNC, they give you access to candidates, like Zoran.
I really do think at this point, that he is being catfished by the Democratic Party. That they understand that he is an effective communicator, and they have somehow convinced him that if he just keeps at it, he can one day kick that football for real.
i think it's a stretch to say he supported the guy when he 1) wanted to interview him to grill him about being a repeat war crimes enjoyer but got dodged and 2) distanced himself after the nazi tattoo reveal. just in the interest of fair history.
That's fair. I remember from somewhere I heard he endorsed him even if in a limited way, but I could be wrong
I don't think he particularly likes Graham, but the "blue no matter who" worms get to him sometimes
he was certainly somewhat interested in platner at first, but that interest waned as more and more information came out, culminating in the nazi tattoo reveal. when platner has been brought up since then, the response is a joke about supporting janet mills, the establishment democrat alternative, and nothing further. i think he gets a bit golden retrievery about candidates that are vocally against giving the zionist entity lots of weapons, and especially was at the time that platner showed up. that said, of the antizionist candidates that popped up around the same time, i'd say that piker kept his enthusiasm most distanced about platner. certainly not the deep-throated defense of the nazi tattoo that so many commentators decided to do, like emma vigeland.
Good to hear, thanks
