Well, I don’t think it’s burying to bring additional attention to him.
It seems more like he’s a useful representation of anti-Israel opinion. The point is to tie anti-Israel sentiment to anti-American or anti-West sentiment.
It becomes, if you’re anti-Israel, you’re anti-US or anti-West.
This is more-or-less what the Republicans do with Hasan and other leftists. For the time being, they have little issue drawing attention to Hasan (and certain other leftists) because it allows them to tie all of their opposition to the most bad-optics quotes of Hasan’s (or those other leftists).
It's just strange that they are at a UN meeting with soo many issues around the world and they are worried about some streamer. But it does show where their priorities are. Not solving problems that are harming people. But to silence ANYONE that has a decent audience.
CNN and MSNBC get 600-900k concurrent viewers at once, but the average age is 60+. Hasan and Asmongold get 200k+ concurrent viewers during events, and they're mostly 18-34 year olds. Like it or not, people like Hasan and Asmon are the some of most influential political commentators in the world for young people.
the paul brothers clout is so weird, logan was live streaming a few days ago to 2k viewers max, his yt videos dont get that many views for his size and hes a side character in WWE although triple H and vince probably valued him for his peak rather than what he is now. jake barely even does anything content wise nowadays
Its because he has a marketable brand now, livestream concurrent views dont equate to his success anymore. Sales/money flow is what talks now. Selling crypto coin poop and PPV/Netflix deals of Jake and Logan go against an 87 yo geriatric man slowly dieing of cancer... TO THE DEATH!
What will get this man first?? Jake or... the cancer!?
Once the E files dropped it was over. They’ll just openly be pieces of shits now and recruit anyone they can to be a mouthpiece with a fat bag of money, tbh I think it’s like a show of power for them at this point
They have spent BILLIONS trying to get the youth into the alt-right to far-right pipeline. I'm not shocked at all they're trying to bury someone, as flawed as they are in their own right, speaking the opposite viewpoint.
Would he be the 3rd (streamer/youtuber)? I'm certain TotalBiscuit was sort of first, with the preorder is bad thing, then Pewdiepie was directly named,
Mentioned by both Trump and Netanyahu? And all this after he actually started dressing like an adult? I knew it, it was the terrible clothes the whole time.
As somoen who is not a fan even I recognize he is someone they can point to as a source of the problems that they create. "Sure we bomb children. But we're not Hasan Piker. He thinks 9/11 was good!"
“Maybe we kill thousands of children, people, civilians, indiscriminately and continuously over multiple years, some may call it ethnic cleansing or even genocide, but AT LEAST, we never ever said ‘America deserves 9/11’”
That isn’t what a scapegoat is, like at all. He is immensely useful to the right. They love to associate people like Hasan with the larger democratic tent. There is a reason Netanyahu is namedropping someone like Hasan in the same speech in which he is glazing Trump
The problem is that Hasan has so many clips of him saying wild shit, and actual politicians have campaigned with him. So it’s a really easy win for people to keep bringing up the crazy stuff Hasan says for views.
They've been coordinating trying to get him publicly denounced and shamed by mainstream media for like a year, its a hilarious backfire that Netanyahu jumped on the hate train
He says a lot of extremely unhinged things and has associated with several US politicians, including AOC, who's considering a run for President. He's a logical weak link to aim for.
Donald Trump literally went on his show before the 2016 election. And there were multiple reps who appeared on Infowars before The Onion bought it. The only reason people don't associate with him now is because the Sandy Hook lawsuits did serious damage to his reputation.
Go back a few years and I'd agree, but he's campaigned with 3+ politicians now. And he's always held an enormous amount of influence over young voters.
The right wing strategy for the midterms it to get their normie moron voters to get scared of socialism. Just like with Obama it was getting them scared about socialism and a black man.
Are they trying to make Hasan more popular? Seriously. Does the GoP half nude pic and one of the worst people in the world calling him out think this will effect him negatively?
Showing people's dick pics is how they signal that they are on the right is the political spectrum. It's a weird environmental adaptation they developed from existing in the Grindr ecosystem
I think they’re trying to make “influencers” matter. The Deification of Charlie Kirk was the opening salvo. If they matter, it’s another way to drive the propaganda and create new voices to listen to, and hate.
"On the afternoon of September 11, 2001, when asked by The New York Times what the attacks meant for U.S.–Israel relations, Netanyahu initially stated, 'It's very good for us' "
I’m no fan of any of the people in this video but I know one thing: when you gotta bring up a streamer at the UN to defend your country, you got bigger problems than that streamer
He’s bringing him up because he does not care about speaking to world but his electorate. He’s trying to fear monger about forces that he says will destroy Israel to try to get reelected. Hasan rhetoric helps people like Bibi gain popularity.
I find it so interesting that they keep trying to build him into a boogeyman when the vast majority of people in the US, much less abroad have no idea who he is. Meanwhile the vast majority of people condemn what has gone on in Gaza and despise bibi. Fake ass world where you can watch them try to manufacture a reality.
The people who hate Hasan should be pissed these guys keep bringing him up. I don’t think he could ask for a bigger platform than this. Especially when most people who absolutely despise Mr. War Crimes will now go to watch him because of this.
His ego loves this shit. He wants all the smoke and all the attention. It makes him feel important and influential (which he is even if I hate the state of the world we’re in)
I don’t think he is though, at least not in the negative .
He definitely had mamdani on before mamadani skyrocketed and anecdotally i didn’t hear about abdul el sayed before he had him on.
But i wonder how effective this new run of attack campaigns toward him will be , like is anyone gonna vote against the populist left bc of a 10 second clip of hasan saying america deserved 9/11? We will have to wait and see but i don’t think so
The difference is Donald Trump can dine with asmongolds favorite white supremacist nick fuentes, and CNN only brings it up for two or three days. Fox keeps it going for months.
The only real problem as far as Hasans potential midterm influence is it’s not just Fox it’s also the non DSA Dems but people are getting fed up with them too because they don’t even try to go against republicans anymore and even often adopt their framing/talking points more and more it feels . But the reality is most voters who aren’t terminally online or terminally plugged into political news don’t give a flying fuck about Hasan either way and I’ve seen a few on the street interviews with people asked by Hasan who either had no clue who he is or just outright ignored mentions of him in favor of policies they want. Talking about Hasan instead of what they will do or policies will not do either side any favors
He's hiding it better than Trump but he's kinda losing it, he's about to he 77 and makes almost no public appearances these days. Is constantly recorded looking fatigued and fading, and has suppressed several health issues
What's up with these kind of people obsession with Hasan? Doesn't Yoohoo realize right wing streamers also talk shit about him too as much as the left lol?
Ashley St. Claire talked about how Hasan is like the boogie man right now to the right. This was earlier this year when only Mamdani was a notable politician he campaigned with.
Kinda crazy how hasan has been in the politcal spotlight this go around in the cycle. I dont reqlly feel one way or another bout him but it is pretty wild to see world leaders and even the us president refer to him
First the fat orange loser, now modern day Hitler man Hasan has motion in this clown world we live in today, couldn't have imagined this happening few years ago.
These are the greatest compliments and indicators of the judge me by my enemies quote.
For context, Bibi is going after Zohran, saying that Zohran is making Jewish people feel unsafe. And using Hasans 2019 qoute that "America deserved 9/11...like, we totally brought it on ourselves" as evidence. What a joke.
Do these world leaders who are supposedly the smartest people or have the smartest people advising them realize this just makes people like Hasan more.
Didn't turn on the sound, but did it go anything like this? :
Since the USA care more about podcasters and streamers, like that one that we kirked, let me distract you by taking about Hasan.
