This sounds like one of those "filtered through an alternate reality" type accusations and I'd love to see the origin
It's not. You can watch the whole vod. There is no "missing context"
lol really cuz I’ve watched a lot of him saying straight up he doesn’t support Russian invasion of Ukraine he just also has further political analysis that’s not just “Putin is an evil commie that wants to kill every Ukrainian”. I’m not gonna link anything cuz I’m lazy today but you can’t lie to me about that shit dawg.
sidebar: I used to work in the dog grooming business, the amount of people who keep shockingly (pun intended) poor levels of care of their dogs & think it’s normal aren’t even half the standard Hasan has for that dog. That dog is pampered like old money. I can tell. You can see the health in a dog like that just by looking at it. Ppl keep doodles and huskies un-brushed in their 2nd floor / tiny ass apartments, literal dog shit all over the floor, & then say this rich dude abuses his dog 😂😂
Yes, he pivoted on Russia. His takes are still superficial. That's my point. I don't care who he supports. He's just an imbecile and speaks callously about entire people.
So if I pamper my dog, I can shock him too? What even is this logic?? Yea, rich man can pamper dog. Wow.
I mean, people say he speaks callously and then come at people like me about his dog. lol. There’s a huge difference between shocking and vibrating. You’d be shocked to see how many people have those prong collars on their dogs and they are too tight. That’s straight up abuse. When you talk like that it shows you don’t know anything about these tools, and you also care way too much about Hasan.
I care about political disengagement and voter apathy. That's one of the many reasons people right now are being marched into detention centers illegally. Hassan farms rage and apathy in the same manner Alex Jones farms anti-establishment sentiment to sell hair loss pills.
I didn't come at you at all. In fact I've done my best to keep this as impersonal as possible. The evidence for the shock collar is overwhelming, but honestly, that's the least of his despicable character flaws.
He. didn't. shock. his. dog. You aren't going to engage with something that doesn't confirm your bias, so this is a futile exercise most likely, but jesus fucking christ dude.
