▲ 124 ▼ meanwhile, in the spectacle government, we bipartisanly grapple with the question gripping the nation as an energy crisis of unprecedented magnitude looms: do you condemn Hasan Piker (thelemmy.club) submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by WhyEssEff@hexbear.net to c/slop@hexbear.net 57 comments fedilink hide all child comments Do you condemn August 21st?
[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago* (2 children) If hasan and the other online radlibs actually threatened the system the government wouldn’t draw this much attention to them lol. They just plugged the panthers and had done with it. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 20 points 4 months ago* I think it has less to do with that, and more to do with the fact that the average politician isn't coming up as a blood soaked lunatic. They are softboi media psychos who want to become bloodsoaked lunatics, but even the blood soaked lunatics knew better than to actually attack Iran. They can't keep from paying attention to Hasan because he is a reflection of them. Hasan is kinda dangerous, not in that he himself is dangerous, but more of the fact that he is popular is indicative of an extremely popular deviation, likely comparable, but still a reflection of them, and what they think is really real, the internet. permalink fedilink source parent [–] jack@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago You think there was no massive extended fear mongering propaganda campaign about the BPP? permalink fedilink source parent
