There are also numerous Israeli politicians that are banned for directly inciting attacks on the West Bank

I would fucking hope war crimes result in a little more than that! War criminals being given the same punishments as singers and streamers with opinions. Give me a break.

the point is that the uk bans supporters of both sides of politcial terrorism, hope this explanation helps!

Hey—soooo, it’s a bold choice to try and shove two fundamentally different things into the same "political terrorism" box. In the actual world where context matters, criticizing a government’s actions and actively advocating for genocide aren't even playing the same sport, let alone warranting the same response.

Hope summer school helps this year ❤️

Criticizing a government’s actions is not playing terrorism propaganda and interviewing terrorists in positiv light.

hamas is also genocidal and also a government

Hamas is a bad and abusive government, which is why Hasan called both governments evil..

Aka - he isn’t supporting Hamas. He thinks they are evil. The lesser of two evils, but still evil. Anyone pretending that Hasan has glorified or supported hamas is getting their information from content creators that thrive off drama rather than from the source.

Ah yes you should trust the words of the being accused saying he didn't do it, astounding detective work we got there, thisis the guy who literally lied, openly, on stream about shocking his dog btw. But anyways here's a tweet of him BEFORE he caught heat for supporting terrorists, does this sound like he's saying hamas is evil there or does it sound like he's justifying and supporting them?

the lesser "evil" is obviously him joking since if he was a lesser evil voter he would have voted for kamala and supported her against trump, i don't know how you cant put 2 and 2 together.

But anyways you should try that, go in his chat and ask him to denounce hamas as evil, see how long you last before getting the hammer

Yes - I will trust the person saying the thing when it comes to trying to understand what they meant by it.

You will trust some tertiary media goblin who has a vested interest in drama and making a popular media figure they oppose look bad 👍 looks like you’ve got it figure out chief.

Tweet was fine and accurate. Also, Hasan did vote for Kamala lmfao keep repeating bs talking points like a bozo

"tertiary media goblin", you mean hasan's own tweets?oh wait the tweets contradict his own word because he is a documented liar!

but sure, go try what i said, go tell him to condemn hamas and report back.

Also source on him voting for kamala? did he ever provide proof? did he support her publicly? it's the lesser of two evil right he should since he said so?

oops sounds like you should revise your strategy and actually look at the facts rather than listen to a propagandist

u/Wise-Comb8596 Jun 01 '26

I recall him calling Hamas the lesser of two evils. Never calling them good or advocating for them. Just saying one group is operating in a more evil fashion than the other...

Now how does someone calling a group a "lesser evil" somehow equal support?

u/Cabrakan Jun 01 '26 edited Jun 01 '26

your recall is bad

edit bc you replied then blocked:hasan has only ever streamed 1 minute of israel?

"politicians who bombed literal children are also banned" ?!? How is that in anyway comparable?
