He also constantly accused Kamala and other democrats of supporting genocide and never told anyone to vote for her.

Hasan is both a DSA shill, and also part of the reason the Democrats lost the election, owing to his criticisms of Kamala.

I'm too old for streamers, I really don't have a horse in this race, but it's not lost on me that Hasan has actual, monied interests propagandizing against him. That's the only way you get silly narratives that appeal to 'both sides' like this.

He is a DSA shill but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The org generally doesn’t try to herd members back into the Democratic Party. It even has an ML cochair and ML and Maoist caucus. The problem is they don’t have any way to discipline their members who run for elected office. That’s how you get opportunists like AOC and Mamdani joining just to try and siphon off some free volunteer labor for their campaigns. Hasan only superficially engages with DSA which is why he trusts these candidates but then gets surprised when they act like democrats.
