There's a lot of "left-wing progressives" in the US that you could apply this critique to, but doing it to Hasan is kinda wild lol. He shines a light on all kinds of negative US imperial actions, to his own personal detriment. Like, look at all the shit he's gotten for his Palestine coverage.

Yeah, I have some disagreements on him with certain views he has, but this is crazy lol.

Nah, Hasan ought to have known better. The totenkoph could not have made matters more plain and obvious. We also ought not let people who are effectively our public representatives off the hook so easily.

I greatly appreciate hasan for his coverage on palestine, and i do agree with him on his "controversial" quotes and thoughts, but my main disagreement with him comes from him not being able to take criticism from his left, trying to reform a nazi party, thinking that reform actually will make the us socialist and that he still supported platner after he became aware of his war crimes. He is the part of the platner left. He didnt give a shit about all the shit platner did before this, he still supported him when he knew that he was a war criminal, but after findong out that he raped an american he changed his tone, thats why i say hes a western supremacist, he just wants the us to be social democratic. Idk he did introduce me to socialism and communism and turned me from a lib to a commie but idk i guess im more to the left of him now? Im just tired of him being the talking head of the dnc at this point

and now the rewriting of history commences, we memoryhole this and pretend he was never flipping out on chatters who disagreed with his position on platner

I think this is just role. He's "mellowed out" to try and exist as that missing part of the radicalization pipeline. You don't have to think he's perfect or anything, but that role does have a major impact on future organizing efforts.

He's also unique in that most people I know who have followed him are now to his left, he doesn't have the rabbit followers that someone like Destiny or Asmongold have who literally do crimes when their god is offended.
