Love or hate him (Hasan), his theory game is always on point. His actions within the Dem party are disappointing at the very least, I wouldn’t even say calling him a reformist is wrong. I do believe he is a genuine anti-imperialist and until he writes a book & runs for president I still like to believe his content has value.
omg Did he actually? I missed that. Even so beyond the dumb shit he says he is very well read and he does know theory. I am also not claiming that I am very well read I’m talking about baseline. I am not well read whatsoever and my knowledge of theory is very weak. I work and I go home and I’ve tried to unionize and organize and have failed.
His rhetoric is better than anyone else’s in his position, that’s the only reason I give him the benefit of doubt. But like I said, he can be pretty awful. This new DSA arc is solidifying him as an elite IMO
I see him as one of the better social democrats, one that doesn’t waste time punching communists but nevertheless is severely limited by the failings of social democracy.
Bingo. I used to watch him a lot more but tbh there are far better content creators that cover the same stuff and they don’t ever really disappoint me with their rhetoric, Gotta remember at the end of the day these people are just entertainers and not revolutionaries; though that does not make them immune to criticism so on and so forth. Hope that makes sense
Deprogram, Lady Izdihar, Daisa Sade, FD Signifier.
For content kinda like Hasan’s I like watching Yugopnik from Deprogram’s twitch VODs or videos, all 3 of the Deprogram guys do very solid YouTube videos you could watch yourself or send to literally anyone as an introduction, and the pod itself has soooo much content I can’t keep up w it.
Hasan supported a candidate that went on 4 combat tours in the Middle East, that guarded the Abu Ghraib concentration camp YEARS AFTER the human rights violations came out, that ran on the campaign promise of strengthening the Epstein military; and he only stopped supporting him when it turned out that the guy had raped an American woman.
Yeah the Platner stuff really made me sick tbh. And now he acts like he didn’t take every single chance he could to defend him when even just vaguely asked about “anti-imperialist” candidates. The military service is a big no for me for public office, military support included.
The thing about Hasan specifically is that his rhetoric is usually 100% solid and very much something to appreciate, even within the DSA party lines, but you would be a Fool to believe that any of those guys (DSA) are real marxists or have interest in ending US hegemony. Hasan included, I’ll believe he’s a “class traitor” and not an elite when I see it. And tbh as time goes on he shows himself more and more as an elite…

His theory game is so strong that he used Lenin’s “Left wing communism” to justify voting for Graham Platner!
Maybe it’s time for you to realize how weak your theory game is.

Could you recommend a few? I’m looking to expand my media diet

For non Politics it’s jerma985, baby.
Yep!

He also broke BDS by going on Haaretz (where he condemned the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation), and he very recently retweeted Ziohran’s October 7th statement where the motherfucker literally mourns the dead IOF terrorists.
Not sure how he was before his collaboration with the DSA, but he’s certainly an American supremacist now.
