If they don't know who Hasan Piker is, they're not going to know who Mao Zedong is

    Nah, the boomers can almost all name the Scary 20th Century Communist Leaders because the fascist propaganda was an absolute constant for decades. All of the ones that aren't dementia patients know Stalin, Castro, and Mao. Some might even remember Lenin, Hoh Chi Minh, Kim Il-Sung, and Gorbachev.

    The vast majority of them can't name a single Twitch streamer.

    “Someone who likes this dude also likes this other dude who did stuff that’s bad, trust me.” Is like… the biggest fucking “we literally have nothing bad on this guy” I’ve ever seen.

    Most Democratic candidate's "biggest supporter" is some PAC you've never heard of

    I'm glad that regular people still don't care about Twitter bullshit. This is just another sign of how our political class and the regular people are in two totally separate worlds.

    Please, conservatives, keep bringing up Internet discourse that nobody except twitter chuds gives a shit about. That will definitely win votes.

    Guys will do anything to try and seem attractive to women, except actually asking women what they find attractive.

    It's because they don't respect women's opinions. When another guy says "women find this attractive" it's more believable because a man said it.

    I wish I was joking.

    They should try pronouncing the H in Hasan like Kkhhamas. To remind everyone that he's a scary Muslim. Surprised they haven't done that yet.

    Pretty interesting they're making him into an AOC tier snarl-name or trying to. Their boomer audience can hardly understand what he is though it'll probably drive support for internet censorship among boomers through the roof if they just tell them it'll own Hasan.

    if i was a guy whose income was determined by engagement, i would be so psyched by this kinda shit. bozos just out there spreading awareness of my brand for free in a market segment i could never reach.

    You probably arent watching the coverage or his stream (which is totally fine), but the "awareness" is "this guy is a racist communist who did 9-11 and hates black and Jewish people", and i can't imagine taking psychic damage from being lied about in the mainstream press over and over again for 6 months.

    This isnt like a few articles either, Fox brings him up more than the Iran War or Epstien (for obvious reasons). Literally every day.

    It will probably pay off going into next year after November, and after they run out of juice, but if you see any of his recent clips he is looking fairly worn down by it all.

    These fucking weirdos can't help but make anyone who's even vaguely left wing sound way cooler than they are.

    I think this kind of attack would have more play with the hogs if the candidates outright said their opponents are chinese Muslim communists, without making specific claims or saying names.

    They don't make me nervous. I just kind of do that. I often wake up panicked and did so in high school, college, right out of college, etc. It comes with the DNA I think.

    Anyone have a rehost of the video clip by chance?

    Anyway, its funny thay they cant attack on policy or even "trumps accomplishments" (he only appeals to people still in the MAGA cult), so they just have [twitch streamer nobody has heard of or cares about]. People who know him already like him cause he is anti-israel and an OG supporter of the most popular politician in the country. People who look any deeper than cable news like him for the same reasons.

    They not only spread, but they truly believe the propaganda about "'progressives' can mayyyybe win in blue mamdanistan, but not in red states", it isnt working and it it isnt going to work. Younger liberals dont even give a fuck about being anti-China, and the Israel and Iran shit is extremely unpopular on the left. $70m couldn't even save them in the Michigan primary. The empire has fallen, and I think the US is gonna go full socdem unless the fascists successfully cancel elections.

    Do I have major disagreements with these people? Absolutely, the land I live on (and thus the system of economic relations) will still be fully subject to the global capitalist order, to say the very least (someone else can list off the socdem crimes if anyone needs a refresher).

    I do nonetheless think that it is what is going to happen. To me, the question is what do we do next in response to this?

    If dems weren’t controlled opposition, they could easily win by running on the fact republicans have become the terminally online party.
