So this is very unlikely to be an actual Hasanabi head, I think this is a sincere post by a typical "anti-trump liberal" account. The only reason they know Hasan is cause he has been plastered across American MSM for 4 months straight, especially by Fox News who got things going until the others jumped in full force 4 weeks ago. Since they are more culture warriors (largely for the right reasons) more than political tacticians ( being liberal and having read no theory at all, not even watching Hasan or anyone to the left of the pod johns), you end up with tone deaf stuff like "wow the republicans really hate this guy, he must be pretty awesome".


Maybe i have that wrong, but it's an interesting time because pretty much all younger liberals are agnostic to positive on the DSA these days. I remember how key in my development it was to see Bernie crushed in 2020 after winning Nevada. The Democrats are now being faced with either doing that again, but even harder and a whole new generation of politically aware people watching, or they are going to need to respond to the tension growing on the U.S. left, which will also be dramatic. The corporate wing will need to either split the party, or join the Republicans.

If anyone has any ideas of a 4the scenario (purge DSA, corpos split off, corpus change parties, and ???) I would be interested. The more I think about it, the DSA purge is most likely by far.
