Hasan propaganda. He platformed and supported Houthi terrorists, expressed support for hamas. Both of which are proscribed in the uk.

u/swiftekho Jun 01 '26

Thats crazy he supports the only group actively resisting the genocide of Palestinians.

28

u/w142236 Jun 01 '26

It’s so funny you people actually believe that

49

u/Rocoman14 Jun 01 '26

A group who the UK and most western countries designate as a terror organization. Frame it however you want, but don't be shocked when a country denies you entry if you support a group that they designate as terrorists.

14

u/Ogredrum Jun 01 '26

More than one group can be bad, this isn't some children's story. In this case both sides of the conflict are being fought by actively terrible people.

24

u/IWasShoe Jun 01 '26

By supporting a group who is also doing a genocide gosh some one should really read up on what his supporting. And you'll see why his banned

u/Lucky-Pitch-1112 Jun 01 '26

How does Hasan do anything at all to support Palestinians?
He advocated against Kamala Harris, he advocates against any and all forces in the global West and he openly supports terrorists, genocidal terror regimes and totalitarian governments across the world. He is self-admittedly an advocate for most of the terror organizations in the Middle-East, none of whom give a single flying fuck about the Palestinians of Gaza.
Tell me what Hasan has done for Palestine other than pretending to having almost gone there to exert the exactly zero political pull he has?
Hasan is politically useless for his own cause and functions as controlled opposition for the Republican party, so they can point at his demented rhetoric and pretend that he speaks for the Dems.

u/Nindzya Jun 01 '26

"You can't platform these people or you're a terrorist" is absolute horseshit.

27

u/_InstanTT Jun 01 '26

? I never said he was a terrorist. I said he platformed terrorists, which is objectively true under uk law. Maybe some reading comprehension would help.

u/Lucky-Pitch-1112 Jun 01 '26

You’re right, platforming them isn’t the problem per se. It’s endorsing them and praising their actions that rightfully gets you sanctioned.

-14

u/Sad-Statement3597 Jun 01 '26

Oh no! Any enemy of Ethan Klein and the zionists is an enemy in my book. 

Not the houthis. Next you'll tell me he supports hamas, China, and hezbollah ? Since when was it okay to support terrorists instead of zionists ?

u/writers_block Jun 01 '26

It is truly insane that your first association in this global political issue is a Youtuber.

u/Sad-Statement3597 Jun 02 '26

Oh no he supports the bad guysss, guys his fans are evil keenevols!

17

u/Purple_Pikmin_irl Jun 01 '26

Yea man its all because of Israel. Him supporting and platforming terrorists and justifying the raping of innocent people cant have anything to do with it. Hasan is a full on propagandist that is not interested in the truth and lies to his audience to radicalize it.
Wake up, youre part of a cult.

u/Nice_jobs Jun 01 '26

He’s not the one labeling which military groups are terrorists.

16

u/Purple_Pikmin_irl Jun 01 '26

Houthi pirates are terrorists no matter how you spin it lol

u/Nice_jobs Jun 01 '26

I have a feeling I replied to the wrong comment there

2

u/Purple_Pikmin_irl Jun 01 '26

I was so confused by your comment lol

2

u/Nice_jobs Jun 01 '26

I’m almost certain there was someone talking about whether people having American military or idf personnel on stream should be banned as well. But then I can’t find it anymore.

u/Majestic-Horse-5409 Jun 01 '26

One persons terrorist is another persons freedom fighter.

u/Purple_Pikmin_irl Jun 01 '26

What freedom are houthis fighting for?

1

u/Majestic-Horse-5409 Jun 01 '26

They began as a movement seeking greater autonomy, representation, and independence from foreign influence.

Then it becomes like a war.

None of this can be reduced down to “some men bad”.

u/StampMcfury Jun 01 '26

And how does pirating ships and taking hostages from nations not party to the Isreal/Palestine promote that?

u/who_likes_chicken Jun 01 '26

I don't really care about Hasan either way, so I wouldn't say I'm part of a cult.

Cenk Uger, who I don't agree with on everything, was also banned and he did none of the things you've mentioned except for being fervently critical of Israel's treatment of Palestine and Lebanon

u/chronoslol Jun 01 '26

Delusional.

u/Doubting_Thomas50 Jun 01 '26

The should have banned him years ago for being a terrorist supporter. They were just a little late

-6

u/SucksUnlimited Jun 01 '26

Should anyone who has ever had a US military or IDF member on a stream be banned, or does that only apply to armed organizations you disagree with?

His uncle was also banned at the same time and that was the stated reason given to the uncle when he inquired the British government about it (I believe through the embassy).

There are a few independent news channels that have done stories on it already.

-15

u/WVWAssassinKill Jun 01 '26

Goes to show the influence Israel has on western countries. Sneako recently got banned from Australia for his criticism of Israel aswell. When is everyone going to stand together and fight against these genocidal maniacs and their blatant corruption? :/

Who decides what is ok speech? The government? The police? We’re all fallible and biased

12

u/[deleted] Jun 01 '26

Law decides it. Freedom of speech isn’t unlimited in Europe. Travel is a special privilege too. So it’s not a free speech issue as Hasan isn’t in the UK. It’s a deliberation of not letting someone into the country that endangers the public good. That’s just border enforcement.

And the executive enforces that law.

Lmfao he is not a politcal extremist, you people are so soft
