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.
as i understand it, he engages with the electoral politics because it's where most of the people are with their political consciousness. he also talks positively of PSL and its hundred millionaire benefactor. if his goal is to stand at the entry of socialist politics, then he is indeed somewhat obligated to engage within the context of electoralist politics that the vast majority of lib brained amerikkkans occupy. he can't magically move entryism to the gates of PSL cadres. i am uninterested in defending his project as such, i don't know if his socialist entryist political commentary will ultimately help result in a proletarian revolution, i just don't think he's contradicting himself in the context of an entryist ML agitator when amerikkkan brains are still, in the big '26, "like that."
When has he talked directly about PSL?
He often speaks about PSL and when he was at an LA protest last week, he was like "yeah PSL invited me to speak but I don't think the timing is going to work out cause I need to be there (at the front of the march) in like 15 minutes" (it didn't work out iirc).
He spoke at a big PSL match for Palestine in DC I think last spring
